{{dothis|'''Skill farming'''}} for [[Clone_states#Alpha_clones|alpha clones]] is possible but pointless. 5.5M [[Skills_and_learning#Training_skills|skill points]] are required to use a [[Skill_trading#Skill_Extractors|skill extractor]], but [[Clone_states#Alpha_clones|alpha clones]] are limited to 5M free [[Skills_and_learning#Training_skills|skill points]]. So, an [[Clone_states#Alpha_clones|alpha clone]] must consume a large [[Skill_trading#Skill_Injectors|skill injector]] in order to produce one. [[Clone_states#Alpha_clones|Alpha clones]] can only extract [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] that require [[Clone_states#Omega_clones|omega]] status (i.e., [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] they can’t train in the first place), which limits their choice of a farm skill. Several of the helpful skills are unavailable to (or limited for) [[Clone_states#Alpha_clones|alpha clones]], reducing their efficiency at {{dothis|'''skill farming'''}}. Therefore, this article assumes [[Clone_states#Omega_clones|omega clone]] status.

== '''Preparation''' ==

To develop your training plan, begin with any required [[Trading#Skills|trading skills]]. Add [[Skills:Neural_Enhancement#Cybernetics|Cybernetics]] to unlock [[Implants#Attribute_Enhancers|enhancers]] and [[Skills:Neural_Enhancement#Infomorph_Psychology|Infomorph Psychology]] for [[Jump_clones|jump clones]]. The key [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] are listed below; I suggest training all to level V.

You might also consider the “[[The_Magic_14|Magic 14]]” and the [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] necessary to fly an [[Interceptors|interceptor]] (or a similar slippery [[Ships|ship]]) to carry small cargos (like [[Skill_trading#Skill_Injectors|skill injectors]]) through risky areas. (And what areas in [[New_Eden|New Eden]] ''aren’t'' risky?) Skilled and fit to use the [[Cloak_trick|cloak trick]], it can avoid ''most'' [[Gate_camps#Hostile_Gatecamp|gate camps]] (though it will still be vulnerable to [[Smartbombs|smart bombs]] and other [[Bombs|area-of-effect weapons]]). I keep one with each of my [[Jump_clones|jump clones]].

Purchase and [[Skills_and_learning#Injecting_Skillbooks|inject]] the necessary [[Skills_and_learning#Skillbooks|skill books]] (probably Accounting, Broker Relations, and Infomorph Psychology), either from the market or “on demand”. Then edit this list of the helpful skills. For example, you may find Trade V unnecessary. If so, delete those [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] from the list (and don’t bother purchasing and injecting their [[Skills_and_learning#Skillbooks|skill books]]). Copy the edited list into your training queue (using the menu button at the top left of the queue) and click “Start”. The EVE client will edit out the “* Remap” lines and the [[Skills_and_learning|skills]] you’ve already trained.

Don’t remap yet. You’ll have to wait a year before you can remap again (unless you have bonus remaps available), and you may need to remap for your ‘farm’ [[Skills_and_learning|skill]].
