Idea is quite simple.
Additional shuttle ( no new model - use current one ).
No BPO, bought on NPC stations, flat Price 750.000 ISK.

Main differences:
- 0 cargo capacity
- 750 flat speed
- 1500 shield capacity
- 750 armor
- +2 warp per frigate skill at lvl 5 ( this can be OP in 0.0, so maybe thing to remove)

Yes i would buy this kind of shuttle, quite often.

Personally I'd just use a new buffed rookie ship with a nano and a MWD, especially for nullsec. A ship that can't MWD back to the gate when it finds itself in a bubble is a worthless ship.

Pointless suggestion.

Isn't having it NPC only just going to reintroduce the issues that NPC only shuttles had a few years ago?

Make it non-reprocessable.

I have a better idea for you, everyone with too much isk in you wallets just give your funds to me. I will put your isk into good use and make it go away in no time Cool

This is the law of ship progression!

No, Just fly a Noobship with MWD.

There is no point to this new shuttle, save for you being tired of getting killed or something.

Still can't warp out of bubbles, and it is to slow to get away from almost any type of tackle if it lands in a bubble. Great for low sec thought.

at almost 1mil isk it won't keep trit prices down.
I like the idea. I hate not being able to get a shuttle in a random highsec station. I am sure some people won't mind spending 1mil on a shuttle if they have a long trip they want to AP on.

Moar EHP/speed/cargo, new hull, costs you a shuttle/ISK/LP... no tags, no BPC, no Nexus chip.
Wait... Pirate shuttles!


As for the +2 warp points, save that for T2 shuttles. >:}
