EVE General Discussion

Let's face it, incursions are very slightly broken, and I hope that in CCP's epic FiS iteration they can tweak incursions.

Vanguards are farmed endlessly, and there's no fear. Incursions should make any capsuleer skittish.
Now, I don't propose nerfs, as that will sway people away from excellent PVE content. Instead:
-Increase vanguard difficulty ever so slightly
-Increase rewards of all other sites
-Introduce sites which are squewed to be easy for armour gangs. There are too many shield fleets, right now
-Autopiloting through an incursion should be terribly, terribly dangerous. Almost as dangerous as APing through low-sec
-Every incursion gate should be camped by sansha, near constantly. Yes, even high-sec. Enough to damage, but not destroy, anyone manually piloting through

The difficulty/reward rebalancing of sites will leave more incursion sites utilised, and thus more pilots participating, with less spamming their fits in chat.
Making incursions dangerous to non-combatants increases their impact on new Eden. Incursions will no longer be seen as ISK & LP farms.

So, everybody wins? More delicious prizes, more participation, varied fleets being formed in chat and greater player respect.

I hope that during the next expansion many, many of EVE's minor quibbles can be iterated on.

moar tears pls what did you lose a mach and are butthurt

CCP should put Incursion gate rats on the gates in highsec.

There's your fear.


(Hint: They'll never do this because people would get mad DON'T TOUCH MY HIGHSEC CCP WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS I'M GOING TO WRITE A HUGE BLOG POST ABOUT IT AND I QUIT [but I'll leave my accounts subbed because they will stop training if I don't pay for them] ALSO IT'S MEAN AND YOU'RE MEAN AND AND AND AND)

Should make incursions available in null sec only. That way, there could be more free entertainment for null sec lurkers.

Incursions need a investigation on the xxx/reward ratios.

If the bot writers are able to adapt to the nature of incursions, then ccp should be hiring them.

Erm, nobody outside of highsec uses the autopilot feature.

If you use it, you literally deserve to lose your ship.

Yes because asking to make Vanguards harder means he wants it easier so he doesn't lose a Mach.... That makes sense

the only thing that needs to change is making vanguards have less of an effect on constellation control. That way fleets running Assaults and HQs would be more difficult, and more necessary, as you cant farm VGs at high constellation control (well you can, its just harder. which is probably a good thing.)

nobody these days would ever dare to run an NCN at 100%, imagine if you had to for it to be possible to reduce control.

Maybe have it so that:
VGs can reduce control up to 5%. 100s of sites run to achieve this.
Assaults car reduce 40% 100 sites to do this.
HQ sites must be run to chip into their 55% of the control.

control should be hard to reduce and fleets should feel accomplished in doing their part to reduce it.
