You can decrease the training time required by remapping your attributes. If you choose to remap then remember to do so before you start training to maximize the benefit of the remap.

Why do I want a Scanner Alt?

A scanner alt will provide you with the means to scan your way out of a W-Space system even if your main isn't there. With further training this alt can be used for K-Space exploration while your main clears the sites. With even further training your alt can act as cloaky eyes, scout and probe much more efficiently.

Preparation

It is important to read this section as it will save you a lot of time and frustrations. Before you even create a character, there are many things to consider: The race of your character, whether you have other characters in the account and if you want to do a neural remap.

Racial Characters

Since slot layouts for exploration frigates change by race, you must consider which race you want your alt to be. Here is a small table outlining the advantages and disadvantages of each ship.

Slot Layout

Race

Estimated Training Time
Magnate
3H/3M/4L
Amarr
~0h 1m
Heron
3H/5M/2L
Caldari
~0h 1m
Imicus
3H/4M/3L
Gallente
~0h 1m
Probe
3H/4M/3L
Minmatar
~0h 1m

Pause Training

If you are creating an alt on an account with other characters, it is important to note that only one character can be training skills at a time. Attempting to add skills to the training queue will result in an error, so you will need to pause training on your currently training character.

Neural Remap

Needs testing.

Basic Scanner

For a basic scanner with no other skills than scanning you will need these skills;

  • (Racial) Frigate I
    • Spaceship Command
  • Astrometrics III
    • Astrometric Rangefinding II

Additional Skills;

  • Cloaking I (for cloak)
    • Electronics IV
  • Afterburner I
    • Navigation I
