Posted by mistake in assembly hall so may as well leave it here too.

Why should Sansha have all the fun? Of all the other pirate factions I reckon Blood Raiders come before the rest in using wormholes to raid empire space [for juicy blood vessels]. This should definitely be a reality. Angel Cartel, Serpentis, Guristas are just criminal enterprises really although they may make minor incursions.

The raids into empire space I feel should also be deadlier. I mean concord ships and the faction navy are unable to stop them so how about disabling CONCORD and the empire navy [maybe having sansha npc ships etc blow them up] in whatever systems an incursion is taking place [or maybe only the sansha incursion hq to make it more resemble low sec]. Add sansha ships to the stargate areas so people don't just idly potter through an incursion as though nothing is happening.

I see what you did there.

Regarding your other proposals: You can make our highsec incursions Lowsec if they pay out Lowsec Rates.
Also: Look at what happens at the lowsec incursions - they hardly get done at all. The same would happen in highsec incursions. In addition, how would you feel if the system you were carebearing in in your multi billion ISK Bling Ship suddenly became lowsec with no warning?
At MOST, Concord Responses should be Delayed slightly. SLIGHTLY.
Regarding Sansha ships on gates: This would, more or less, completely bone logi ships that can't fight, and they are needed in incursions. I dont know about other Logi pilots, but I'd rather not inconvenience my fleet by needing an escort into the incursions system.

Edit: Agree on additional incursions, with racial flair given by the Pirates.
Guristas are ECM Heavy, Raiders are Neut Heavy, etc.

I'm all for Pirate Incursions so long as unbeatable CONCORD isn't involved, players can side with the Pirates, and if there's something real to be lost should the Pirates win.. permanent security drop for the system for example.

But no more terrible PvE raids where pirates are reduced to loot pinatas for players that ought to be playing EQ/WoW not EVE.

As a Sansha I would love to see alternate incursions. CCP was originally going to use the EOM as the enemy for incursions but ran into development technicality. I would love to see the original plan for incursions where everyone is incursion-ing everyone.

EOM and Bloods would be the optimal choices to start with tho.


EOM~ hates everyone, Is one of the oldest pirate factions, has known titans.

Bloods~ actively collects people, they are basically incursion-ing already just at a smaller scale.

I think they will consider this once they really finish the sansha oneBig smile. I mean, 3 dungeons for each difficulty doesn't seem to be a sufficient amount.
