Skills:Electronic Systems

Overview

The Electronic Systems group contains all skills related to offensive Electronic Warfare. Some of the skills here are specialized skills which are only useful for a limited selection of pilots. Any skillbooks that cost one million ISK or less qualify for The Skillbook Program.

Propulsion Jamming, which lets you operate tackling modules, is in a sense the cornerstone of PvP -- you can't kill someone if you can't stop them from warping away.

Skill	Purpose
Cloaking	Allows use of cloaking devices. Reduction of uncloak targeting delay penalty.
Electronic Warfare	Allows use of ECM jammers. Reduces ECM module capacitor consumption.
Long Distance Jamming	Bonus to EWAR module optimal range.
Projected Electronic Counter Measures	Bonus to Projected ECM Cycle time. (Reduces Time)
Propulsion Jamming	Allows use of stasis webifier, warp scrambler/disruptor. Reduces Propulsion Jamming module capacitor consumption.
Sensor Linking	Allows use of Sensor Boosters/Sensor Dampeners. Reduces capacitor consumption for these modules.
Signal Dispersion	Bonus to ECM Jammer strength.
Signal Suppression	Bonus to Sensor Dampener effectiveness.
Signature Focusing	Bonus to effectiveness of Target Painters.
Turret Destabilization	Bonus to effectiveness of Tracking Disruptors.
Weapon Disruption	Allows use of Tracking Disruptors. Bonus reduction to Tracking Disruptor capacitor consumption.

Cloaking

Skill at using Cloaking devices. 10% reduction in targeting delay after uncloaking per skill level. Can not be trained on Trial Accounts.

Attributes:
Multiplier:	6x
Price:	5M ISK
Alpha max level:	Alpha pilot can not train this skill.
Prerequisites:	CPU Management IV
I required for:	T1 and Faction cloaking devices
III required for:	T2 cloaking devices (except Covert ops cloaking device II)
IV required for:	Covert ops cloaking device II; Black Ops, Recon Ships
V required for:	CONCORD modified cloaking device
Notes:	Level I allows you to fit a prototype cloak, which will let you remain hidden and undetectable by probes in a safespot for as long as you like. Level III lets you use the T2 cloaking device, which is necessary for the MWD+cloak trick, a useful technique for travelling safely through low-sec. Level IV lets you use the CovOps cloaking devices which will let you warp while cloaked, but can only be used on a limited range of stealth ("covert ops") ships. Most combat pilots can probably get away with only training to level I, while haulers should train to level III, and stealth specialists (who want to fly covert ops ships) need level IV. The only reason to train Cloaking to V, is to get the last bit of bonus to Stealth Bomber damage.

Electronic Warfare

Operation of ECM jamming systems. 5% less capacitor need for ECM and ECM Burst systems per skill level. Note: Does not affect capital class modules.

Attributes:
Multiplier:	2x
Price:	125k ISK
Alpha max level:	IV
Prerequisites:	CPU Management I
I required for:	T1 electronic warfare modules
II required for:	Frequency Modulation

Multiplier:	3x
Price:	200k ISK
Alpha max level:	Alpha pilot can not train this skill.
Prerequisites:	CPU Management III; Electronic Warfare II
Notes:	Falloff isn't as important as optimal range, but anyone specialising in ewar should train this up to IV in the medium term.

Long Distance Jamming

Alpha max level:	<span style="cursor: help;" title="Alpha pilot can train and use this skill to at most level Unknown">Unknown
Prerequisites:	Electronic Warfare V; CPU Management I
