Directly:

  1. Missle Launcher Operation - increases rof
  2. Missile Projection - increases velocity
  3. Rapid Launch - increases rof
  4. Target Navigation Prediction - reduces the effect of targets velocity
  5. Warhead Upgrades - increases dmg
  6. Torpedoes - increases dmg
  7. Torpedo Specialization - allows t2 and increases dmg for t2

Indirectly:

  1. Weapon Upgrades - Allows BCU's, reduces CPU requirements
  2. Advanced Weapon Upgrades - reduces PG requirements

Also, some ships give bonuses to torps based on their required skills (eg: see stealth bombers)

Hope this helps,

Looks like the only skill missing is Guided Missile Precision. Is this on purpose?

Yeah, actually i had that in the list at first, but then i read the description closer and it only applies to standard, heavy, and cruise missiles.

In addition to the above skills, you may also want to consider training and using Target Painters and potentially even Stasis Webifiers(propulsion jamming). Due to the normally slow speed and poor guideance of torps, the difference between their damage on paper(EFT if you will) and actual damage can be rather drastic.... especially against targets that are moving fast or have a small signature radius.

In so far as I know it, stealth bombers and the Golem are the only ships that can really make the most of torpedo potential.

Do the skills have the same affect on Citadel Torpedoes and launchers?
