i was just wondering, as an idea, that for all 4 of the tech 1 freighter to install 1 high slot, 1 med slow, and 1 low slot, thought would be nice, again just an idea

Yes for a cloak, propmod, and damage control. Sounds perfect! Except they'd be harder to kill. So no. Terrible idea

I'll take 2 carebears to go, with extra tears

That was, of course, my first instinct as well. Then I briefly entertained the idea of two Charons with expanded cargoholds and FN webs run by ISboxer; that was also kinda funny. And probably wouldn't work.

Shouldn't this be in F&I?

Edit: DC II bumps a Charon from 180194 EHP to 379413.5 EHP.

I'd roll with cloaks, webs, and istabs personally.

Ed: Maybe a cyno. That might be pretty hilarious.

I'm an idiot, don't mind me.

it would be a good idea, and it will benefit us for more, plus a cloak wont do any good since you can just bump us -_-

Let's see, with all V's, that gives you:
* 1.25 CPU
* 1.25 PG

Personally, after doing the math, I'm very okay with adding slots to a freighter.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

So... istab and auto targeter? Should be able to blap 2 guys at a time with assigned fighters!

I have been saying it for awhile, freighters should have slots. First they would need half their base cargo, shield, armor, etc removed then give them lows/mids/highs. With the exception of shuttles, freighters are the only ship in EVE where there is no player choice in fitting it. Freighter pilots should be able to choose if they want extra tank to help avoid ganks, or more cargo space to move more goods quicker.

They main point why freighters dont have slots is that they would not be able to go above 1 000 000 m3 as that would allow you haul an assembled capital ships into the hi sec.

While in my opinion it would be ok to go to Jita for buying my dreads and carriers for some reason dev's seem to disagree. Probably more so nowadays that we have incursions as it would make it relatively easy to drag a carrier with you for remote repping in incursions.

Agreed. +1 freighter high, with enough cpu/grid to fit a cyno. Big smile

Charon: Structure: 106,250 HP

With mechanic V: 132,812 HP

With x1 Reinforced Bulkheads II: 166,015

GG

Also a DCU II would be pretty amazing but I think everyone flys afk.
