#REDIRECT [[Skills:Armor#Mechanics]]
[[Category:Skills]]
 
 
 
The Mechanic category contains most of the key skills for [[Armor_tanking|armor tanking]], all of the rigging skills and a number of construction skills.
 
 
 
Most combat pilots will want to train some at least of the armor tanking skills.
 
 
 
While you ''can'' use rigs without training the relevant skills for them if you get someone else to fit the rigs for you, the rigging skills do reduce rigs' associated drawbacks and make logistics much easier (since you don't need to have someone around to fit rigs for you all the time). The weapon rigging skills function almost like fitting skills, since weapon rigs increase your weapons' fitting requirements and the associated rigging skills then reduce that drawback.

|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=2x
 
|pre=Mechanic I
 
|notes=The raw armor hitpoints bonus from this skill is very useful. Level IV lets you use T2 Damage Controls (making this an essential train for any PvP fitting); level V lets you use T2 Energized Adaptive Nano Membranes, so to fit a full T2 armor tank you will probably need to train this to V. Which you should probably do anyway for the hitpoints bonus.<br>

|desc=Skill at maintaining the mechanical components and structural integrity of a spaceship. 5% bonus to structure hit points per skill level.
 
|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=1x
 
|pre=None
 
|notes=The basic skill for this whole category. Mechanic is a quick train and comes with a nice bonus -- although hull tanking of any kind is unwise, most of the time, extra structure is more overall EHP and may make the difference in a close fight. You need level IV to use T2 medium armor repairers, and level V to use T2 large ones.<br>

{{Skill
 
|skill=Nanite Interfacing
 
|desc=Improved control of general-purpose repair nanites, usually deployed in a paste form. 20% increase in damaged module repair amount per second.
 
|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=3x
 
|pre=Mechanic V, Nanite Operation III
 
|notes=Nanite paste can be used to repair module damage from [[Overloading|overheating]] on the fly, while in space. This skill speeds up those repairs. This is a nice skill to have if you're a PvP pilot, but it's not a high priority.<br>

|desc=Skill at operating nanites. 5% reduction in nanite consumption per level.
 
|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=2x
 
|pre=Mechanic V
 
|notes=The skill required to use nanite paste to repair module damage from [[Overloading|overheating]] on the fly. The reduction in nanite consumption will save you money in the long run. Good skill for PvP pilots, especially ones who go on longer roams and so rely on paste more.<br>

|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=2x
 
|pre=Mechanic III, Repair Systems II
 
|notes=Level IV is required to use T2 large remote armor reppers. Although people often prefer the meta 4 'Solace' repper, the skill is still useful for reducing reppers' cap requirements. Key for anyone who flies in [[Spider Tanking|RR battleship gangs]] or flies an armor [[Cruiser#Logistics|logistics ship]].<br>

|mult=1x
 
|pre=Mechanic I
 
|notes=The required skill for local armor repairers. You need level IV to use T2 large armor repairers. This is an important skill for anyone who uses active armor tanking, and since it's a short train you may as well take it to V.<br>
 
}}
 
 
 
{{Skill
 
|skill=Salvaging
 
|desc=Proficiency at salvaging ship wrecks. Required skill for the use of salvager modules. 5% increase in chance of salvage retrieval per level.
 
|1=Intelligence
 
|2=Memory
 
|mult=3x
 
|pre=Mechanic III, Survey III
 
|notes=Salvaging increases the chance that you'll successfully ''access'' a wreck you're salvaging on any given cycle. It does ''not'' increase your chance of getting the more valuable salvage from the wreck and it does ''not'' decrease the chance that you'll find that there was nothing to be salvaged after successfully accessing the wreck. You need Salvaging I to use salvagers at all; you need Salvaging V to use T2 salvagers.<br>
