To be completely honest, I want to fly every ship in the game. Each ship has its use. I meant I guess the coolest ship would be an Erebus! ---

Not to be totally critical of your dreams, but if you are going to train for the maelstrom, do yourself a favor and train gallente battleship as well so you can fly the mach. The maelstrom is a bit underwhelming. It is quite slow and doesn’t have a projection or application bonus, so ACs don’t do that well, and artillery is basically cruise missiles in turret form. At this point there are no ships I aspire to pilot. I have no desire to pilot any capital. I don’t worry about meta changes. The only skills I don’t have trained to 5 are tech 2 weapon specializations. I think the most satisfying skill to finish training to 5 was command ships. The sleipnir is so great. ---

Time ago, when I just started to play this game, I was aspired to fly Black Ops Panther, Gila and Straitos (and never was focused on T3 :). Not long after that I just realized that many other ships can do the same functions more “cheaper” and sometime more effective. Every ship is good and have its very specific purpose. I learned one of the main lesson of EVE: “You should be able to fly any ship which will serve the best your current purpose.” ---

Coming from DUST 514, the balance in EVE really does seem splendid IMO. In EVE pretty much every ship is used and can be used well. In DUST 514, any Heavy that wasn’t the Amarr Heavy was bad. Any Assault that wasn’t the Minmatar Assault was bad. Any Logistics that wasn’t the Minmatar Logistics was bad. ---
