* Just like learning a ship, learn the weapon systems you like. If you're into drones and drone boats train up the related skills. The weapon system will be much better in accuracy, damage and distance with the appropriate skills. For example with Drones, train up Drone V first. Don't stop at 4, that fifth drone is 25% more damage and Drones V is a prerequisite for Drone Interfacing and Sharpshooting. Get those next along with Drone Durability and Navigation to 3 or 4. You'll be far more effective and have more fun! If you focus you can quickly get excellent skills - if you jump around between drones, lasers, projectiles, and turrets you'll stay basic or average for a long time (and be frustrated in PvE and PvP). | * Just like learning a ship, learn the weapon systems you like.

* During e-Uni wars and/or lockdowns, consider training up an Alt character for a specialty; mining, hauling, trading, PI. You can do this with your primary but with an Alt when your primary can't (or you don't want to) fly, your Alt can. Your Alt doesn't have to be (and usually isn't) in the Uni, so it can fly when your main character can't. | * During e-Uni wars and/or lockdowns, consider training up an Alt character for a specialty; mining, hauling, trading, PI.
