Probably a good question is if each racial variant of dropsuit types will be a different skill. For example will Amarr Heavy and Caldari heavy be different skills in the end? Or shared?
The nice part about the current system if that you really can make a ton of variations just by tweaking values and keeping the same visual appearance. |

Well, there are ship skills in EVE that are shared across racial versions of the same ship class, so in that regard some specialty items in Dust may also share skills between racial variants. |

Battlecruisers, Destroyers, Logistics, Covert Ops, ect. ect. skills are shared between races. Never said the final pre-reqs were all shared, but that skill specifically is shared. |

But if you spec amarr, you can't use caldari covert ops, destroyers, battlecruisers, etc. Ps i meant the actual ship, not the skill
As I said, not all pre-reqs are shared. However, there is no Caldari Battlecruiser skill and Amarr Battlecruiser skill, just Battlecruisers which is shared, meaning you don't need to train a new battlecruiser skill to use the other race's ship, just the other pre-reqs.
EDIT: On a similar note, it would be fun to get pirate faction gear which gains bonuses from different racial skills, much like the ships in EVE. |

lol you're missing my point here. What Im saying is that you save yourself some time if you decide to train another race's battlecruiser because you don't need to train another battlecruiser skill, you can use the same one. Never said you don't have to get the needed racial pre-reqs, just saying its nice that some skills are shared. |

Right...because battlecruisers gain their role bonuses from...the battlecruiser skill, and not the pre-req cruiser skill.
Obviously you need to pre-reqs to fly the ship which makes them important, I'm not an idiot. But because the bonuses come from the shared skill, its nice that that skill is shared between the ships, yeah? Especially since the cruiser skill is easier to train than the battlecruiser skill. |
