Praticly,

" I dont wonna die, take my ship, let me escape in my pod "

The chance of it to happen would be like 1%.
When it happens, the NPC would have less than 20% hull left before giving u the option.
The NPC would then broadcast it would surrender, and few seconds after jump out in a escape pod (if not killed)
The bounty would not change if killed even he would surrender. the escapre pod could be killed for additional reward.

If u manngde to save the ship, u would then have to jump into your escape pod and take control over it, with 20% or less hull dmg.
Due to the desity of the dmg, all the mods onbard the captured ship has been destroyed.

It would bring a hole new way of ratting.
When ratting, u would allways has to be carefull when it enters hull, if u want to have a chance that he surrenders.

Ofcoz droneships would not do this, neither would concordships.




On the last note, for god sake, lets try keep this topic flame free :-)

This would be cool. Only problem I see is that not too many npc's (mission nps's at least) survive another hit after going into structure, let alone 20%. 20% armor maybe? Other than that, interesting idea.

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

OP, when you see any of your text underlined in red, then could you please right-click it, and then select the correct choice as given...

I-want-Carebear-easy-mode posts are more credible when they don't hurt the eyes to read.

(Unless "hole new way of ratting" actually is a thing, in which case I don't think I want to speculate too much on specifics, as I have far too vivid an imagination for my own goodTwisted)

Also if your going with the lore all capsulers ships are modified to fit the capsule somewhere... but the rats have walking commanders and crew... so... nowhere to enter with your capsule.... well... you can try the engine hole although like "clearskys"...

If this is implemented, expect me to start flying out to highsec and lowsec belts in T1 fitted Rifters and shooting Dram and Cynabal NPCs into structure and then re-selling their hulls, lol (or whatever the dominant rat is in the area).

I would have REALLY loved this idea that time I went lowsec ratting in a T1 fitted Rifter and took down a rat in a Nightmare, lol.

While I don't have Amarr BS trained ATM (all of my skills are in Cal/Gal/Min), you can bet I'd spend the 3.5d it takes to train it if this happened. I'll trade a 1M Rifter for a 1B pirate BS any day.

at least the 1b bs would go down in prize :)
