If you have medium gun/missile skills to IV, can fit a T2 tank and a full rack of weapons, don't hesitate to step into a battlecruiser.

You can use rigs without having the rigging skills trained, but you'll need someone to install the rigs for you, which is a pain (see the section on rigging below) -- so you may want to train rigging skills for whatever kinds of rig you're fitting. Also remember that buffer and resist rigs for both shield and armor tanking create significant drawbacks that can hurt your PvP performance in some situations, so skilled pilots have often trained [[Skills:~~Mechanic~~#Armor_Rigging|Armor Rigging V]] or [[Skills:~~Mechanic~~#Shield_Rigging|Shield Rigging V]], depending on how they are usually tanked. Rig drawbacks can only be reduced by your skills, not by the skills of the pilot who installed the rig.

You should be able to fit a [[Full T2 Tank|T2 tank]] to fly a battlecruiser when the [[Wartime Standard Operating Procedures#Default_SOP|standard wartime rules]] are in force.
