I was playing eve and told some peeps before I logged off that it would take 51 days to skill Battle Cruiser to 5. Am I missing something, sorry but what should I be learning first in systematic order to reduce this time. I'm in no hurry don't get me wrong I like the game but it would be nice to be efficient.

So training up the learning skills + the advanced ones (Not the skill learning, but the ones that up your attributes found in the learning skills branch). With the Relevations extension being patched today, the requirements for the advanced learning skills is dropped one notch to just require the regular ones at level 4. So train the basics to level 4, then the advanced to 3-4 and then do the basics to 5. Then carry on with the advanced if you want after. Top it off by do the skill called "Learning" as its more usefull the higher attributes you got and the attribute skills shave off more time than that one so always do it last. Most gunnery, ships and command skills make use of perception and willpower attributes. However the attribute learning skills (the basic ones), use memory and intelligence as primary and secondary attributes, so for a faster training, do memory and intelligence first, then perception and willpower. When that is done, you need to check the info tab on the advanced attribute skills what they make use of as primary and secondary attributes to decide what order makes most sense to train them for. Also if you can afford it plug in some cheap +3 implants to give your training time a slight boost. For me it currently would take around 30ish days to do Battle Cruiser to 5. This with the basic attribute skills at 5, the advanced to 4 and the learning to 5, and some +4 implants. If you want to play EVE for a long time then doing the learning skills will pay off eventhough a slight boring in the start where you might rather want other skills to make you better at do other things.

One, get EVEMON.exe, it will help you to know what skills you need to do stuff, as well as what skills you should have to learn what you want in less time. You can fine it here: http://evemon.battleclinic.com/ You should also have your basic learning skills up to 4 as some one else suggested. -- I Love Cats But I Can't Eat A Whole One http://www.myspace.com/osalt

All good advice. I would also say that if you are a new starter, looking at going straight for Battlecruiser is probably not a good idea. As well as flying the ship, you really need a lot of other skills to fit weapons and other modules appropriate to the ship - otherwise you just have an expensive target drone. I would recommend training up a few skills to give you the ability to fly and fight in frigates, then get some experience in those while you train up the learning skills as suggested below. By the time you are ready to train "real" skills much faster, you will also have a better idea of what skills you need to make you an effective pilot in whatever line of development really interests you.
