If you want to engage in [[Exploration]] you want a character with the appropriate skills. This page provides skill plans for such a character. | |||
As a side note: Usually, players train those skills to a decent level on their first character. But advanced players often have a dedicated scanning character. Especially, inhabitants of wormhole space do so to scan their other characters back into their wormhole if they are podded out. In fleet fights combat prober can also provide warp-ins which are usually scanned by a dedicated combat prober. As this character does not do anything for most of the fight it is common that a player multiboxes the combat prober. | |||

This page contains 3 different skill plans, each focusing on how much you want to dedicate yourself to exploration. With some skills you can find an additional note that indicates why this skill is useful. If no notes are present, the skills give a an increase in modifiers mentioned above. All the training times stated in these skill plans are '''''without the use of implants or attribute remaps'''''. Additionally these skill plans are based off a completely new character, so it might be possible that you already trained some of the required skills. | This page contains 3 different skill plans, each focusing on how much you want to dedicate yourself to exploration.

People who consider exploration as one of their main career paths are advised to train the most these skills. Note that this plan focuses on training into the ''covert ops'' frigate, which makes your exploration much faster and easier. When you have trained this plan, you will be able to scan and loot '''ALL''' exploration sites in known- and wormhole space effectively (with the exclusion of sleeper sites). | People who consider exploration as one of their main career paths are advised to train the most these skills.

This plan is meant for players who, after learning starter exploration plan, decided to continue with exploration as a possible career path. This skill plan takes quite a bit longer then the starter plan and should be considered if you plan to spend a decent amount in exploration. After this skill plan you should be able to explore almost all high and low security and the easiest null security sites. This plan focuses on training more specific exploration skills and work best with your racial exploration ship. Hacking IV and Archeology IV are not explicitly required but can make your life hacking cans a bit easier. If you plan to dedicate a part of your EVE career to exploration i suggest training these skills before you start the master exploration skill plan. | This plan is meant for players who, after learning starter exploration plan, decided to continue with exploration as a possible career path.
