Overview
Gunnery skills let you use Eve's three varieties of turret (projectile, hybrid and laser) and make those turrets more effective. These skills will be important for PvE and PvP combat unless your character is purely specialized in drones or missiles.
The Gunnery category also contains two skills of interest to missile users: Weapon Upgrades and Advanced Weapon Upgrades make fitting any weapon, including missile launchers, easier, and are very useful fitting skills.
Advanced Weapon Upgrades
Reduces the powergrid needs of weapon turrets and launchers by 2% per skill level.

 Prerequisites:
|
Weapon Upgrades V, Gunnery II |
 Notes:
|
Note that this skill also applies to missile launchers (rockets / missiles / cruise missiles / torpedoes) and not just guns. Weapon Upgrades V is a long prerequisite, but the cumulative effect of WU V and AWU to IV really makes a difference to fitting, especially when you start encountering the greater fitting demands of T2 equipment. |
