The Navigate skill imparts various bonuses that aid travel.
Notably, the skill will improve the function of your ship's navigation computer, plotting more efficient (read: shorter) routes along a sector's mapped navpoints.
Effects
The benefits of the Navigate skill are:
Level | Warp Cost Reduction | Warp Init/Recovery Reduction | Base Speed Increase | Warp Speed Increase |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 20% | |||
2 | 30% | |||
3 | 40% | 10% | ||
4 | 50% | 15% | ||
5 | 60% | 20% | 70 | |
6 | 70% | 25% | 100 | 400 |
7 | 80% | 30% | 130 | 700 |
8 | 85% | 35% | 160 | 1000 |
9 | 90% | 40% | 190 | 1300 |
10 | 95% | 45% | 220 | 1600 |
- At level 7, a 50% chance of warping through a gravity well is obtained[1].
Buffs
The devices which can improve Navigate skill are:
Abilities
- Level 1 — Warp Efficiency
- Level 3 — Emergency Warp
- Level 5 — Combat Navigation
- Level 6 — Warp Navigation
- Level 7 — Gravity Navigation
Profession Access
Navigate is available to the following three professions:

Notes
- A 200% Navigation Computer Mk. II has a Navigate skill buff of 4.03 levels, this means that a explorer or scout need not invest in the 7th skill level in order to reach the skill cap of 10.
- The maximum level of the Navigate skill (Level 7) confers a 50% chance that your ship will be able to warp through a Gravity well[1].
Footnotes
- There has been a report that a dev has stated that levels above 7 do not increase gravity well warp chance. Not yet confirmed by in-game testing.
