The [[Skills and Learning|skills]] which are important to Amarr characters are the same skills which are crucial to any pilot who wants to maximize turret weapon damage, survive with an armour tank, and use drones effectively, backed up by solid support and fitting skills.  Here are the primary skills associated with this goal together with the specific emphasis for Amarr pilots if applicable for each of the skill categories:
The skills which are important to Amarr characters are the same skills which are crucial to every pilot who wants to use the same basic systems and there is already lots of information on [[Basic Skills]] and [[Fitting skills]] elsewhere. So if you want maximize [[turrets|turret]] weapon damage you will train the same skills as other projectile or hybrid users (pay particular attention to [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Controlled_Bursts Controlled Bursts] and [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Sharpshooter Sharpshooter]). Similarly to survive with an [[armour tanking|armour tank]], use [[drones]] effectively, all backed up by solid support and fitting skills (prioritize .

Engineering has some of the most important capacitor skills and very important fitting skills.  Energy Managment and Energy Systems Operations are as close to mandatory for Amarr pilots as it gets in EVE.

Gunnery is the home of everything damage dealing for turret users.  All of the skills are important with first priority being with those that accentuate the distinct characteristics of lasers: high cap usage, excellent damage at range, decent tracking, huge optimal and small falloff ranges.

===Skill Plans===


So what do these core skills mean?  If you went through them one by one and maxed them all out (except where noted), without any implants, learning skills first, it would take you 1165 days 16 hours and change as a brand new Amarr pilot.  Yes, that is a little over 3 years.  Yes, you would be the king of Amarr T1 pilots.  Yes, it would be very very silly.  However, if this is your first kick at the cat and you have no idea where to start you will not be wrong to start training ANY of the skills on this list and a well rounded Amarr pilot will end up with some degree of all of them over an average career.

====Cross Training====
into or out of Amarr can be more skill intensive than other cross training. The most viable prospect is probably [[Gallente Basic Ship and Skill Guide|Gallente]] (armour tanking, gunnery and drone synergies) with [[Minmatar Basic Ship and Skill Guide|Minmatar]] second (some gunnery and armour tanking synergies).  [[Caldari Basic Ship and Skill Guide|Caldari]] have the fewest skills in common, despite some Khanid missile ships at the Amarr Tech 2 level, and could require the most retraining.
