Current plans

Skill training needed

Currently i find Ark is unable to fit a rifter to match her gameplay mainly through lacking afew supporting gunnery skills including the all important weapon upgrades skills while her tanking is good but not all lvl V as yet. Some of these can easily be fixed and in a fairly short time others a couple of weeks or more. Also the need to up ship vs various hostiles mean she's somewhat lacking in that area tho able to fit a basic cane that is good enough for now.

Priorities :-

1 - Weapon upgrades V - Advanced weapon upgrades IV
2 - Gunnery support skills to atleast IV (possibly missiles too)
3 - Make a t2 fit for the Cane possible
4 - Assault ships - covert ops and interceptors to IV
5 - Start cross training frigate skills and the other small weapon types

That should keep me busy for agood while atleast. Will check back in a couple of months to see how well i've stuck to it. I just know i'll find soemething silly to train instead.

Also as skills improve i'll play around with a mix of fits till i narrow down to 2 different styles i like using.

Combat arena - high or low

For now i intend to stay in high sec areas while i finish atleast point 2 of the above list. During this time i'll have to make do with chasing the War Targets Miura Bull finds us. Tho i also intend to use this time to learn Ninja salvaging and get better at can flipping as so far i'm not had much luck in either area.

As for where to base from i've narrowed down to a couple of systems which are no more that 2 jumps from low sec, no more than 5 from a good trade hub, close to areas where alot of my fellow Black Jackets fly for those moments help maybe needed, access to good areas for griefing and not too far from a faily well populated lvl 4 area.

Once selected afew ships will be moved in while leaving most in a central zone awaiting distribution as needed. This is mainly cos The Black Jackets are supposed to be on tour and as such will probably need to establish afew other tempory bases as we go. I dont fancy having issues with moving masses of stuff every time.
