Nonetheless, for pilots who ''do'' have Omega status, the rewards of additional training are considerable: additional training in the probing skills will greatly reduce the time required to scan down a signature, and the increases in virus strength and coherence gained by training the data-mining skills can make it much less likely that the pilot will fail a hack once the site has been reached. Training [[Cloaking]] allows the pilot to probe signatures in dangerous space with relative safety and (at level III) to fit the Improved Cloaking Device II and thus use the [[Cloak trick]] to increase the chances of successfully making it to market with the loot. | Nonetheless, for pilots who ''do'' have Omega status, the rewards of additional training are considerable: additional training in the probing skills will greatly reduce the time required to scan down a signature, and the increases in virus strength and coherence gained by training the data-mining skills can make it much less likely that the pilot will fail a hack once the site has been reached.

The suggested training plans concentrate on improving the pilot's Scan Probe strength and Virus Coherence initially, and on enabling the use of advance piloting techniques to improve survivability in hostile space. Without a fairly high Scan Probe strength, the improvements in scan time and deviation gained by training Astrometric Pinpointing and Astrometric Acquisition make little or no noticeable difference. | The suggested Improved and Intermediate training plans concentrate on improving the pilot's Scan Probe strength and Virus Coherence initially, and on enabling the use of advance piloting techniques to improve survivability in hostile space.
