I dunno where this magical 5.5 million SP number came from. Really, I don't.
See, by my estimates, it's actually around 3,108,940 - total, for a 10x skill.
There are some of you out there with 10,000,000 total SP so, congrats you've got enough to spare to get all of your core skills out of the way and still land a primary weapon at level five.
Really don't know where all this fear mongering is coming from... Seriously...
358,400 SP a week if you hit your Active cap.
3,108,940 divided by 358,400 = 8.67 weeks. That's a hell of a lot less than this "6 months" business.
Chill people. Seriously. Think before you flip out. |

That's more than 5 million SP in total.
4,973,760 - actually. Which would take about 13 or so weeks. We're still at about 3 months last I checked, unless we're doing Mayan Calender all of a sudden. |

You're not supposed to be King of All Trades until way down the line - that's how this game works. You find your specialization and you stick with it, become better at it. If it doesn't work out, maybe you just suck at that role and should try something else.
That's why you -don't specialize until you know what you're going for- hence why they have the Medium Frame (without bonuses) in the first place. |

And sometimes you choose wrong. I'm have proto assault right now I never use because on an alt I realized that Adv Scout is actually viable and a lot of fun to boot. So much SP, but it's NOTHING compared to skilling into the wrong thing in the Fanfest build.
Here's an idea - check out the Show Info button and look at it's fitting.
Run a spreadsheet, do some math, save yourself some time and SP.
Use the Militia/Standard variants. The 12,000 isk for a Weapon Skill isn't going to kill you.
Try it before you buy it mate. |
