Hello Space Friends!

My name is Lyris Nairn and I have been playing EVE Online since 2008. I think that I have something to say that is relevant to many of you.

As you all know, there exist many modules for ships that have also have equivalents for Player Owned Starbase (POS). These include, but are not limited to, various guns and missiles, various shield hardeners, and also various electronic warfare modules; for example, Energy Neutralization Batteries, Stasis Webification Batteries, and Warp Disruption Batteries. When you scale this down to non-POS, deployable structures, we are left only with the Mobile Warp Disruptor of various sizes.

I think that CCP should introduce a Mobile Stasis Webifier of various sizes which exactly mimics the Mobile Warp Disruptor in its deployment (i.e., it deploys its effect in a sphere whose radius varies with the size of the "bubble"), but which applies the Stasis Webification effect to targets caught in its area of effect. This new, deployable structure, could be anchored anywhere a mobile warp disruptor can, and subject to the same limitations.

I think this is a great idea that would change the game in a positive way. Let me know what you think in the comments!

Why do I get this strange urge to post a tired and boring Admiral Ackbar picture in this thread?

Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the comedian is the only thing that makes sense.

That I am, but I'm fairly certain it's just a coincidence.

I make it a point of "liking" all of Tippia's posts that I see.

Could they overlap?

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there.

I don't see any reason why they couldn't.

I don't think their effects would be amplified by overlapping, though. That would be too strong. But positioning them so that you cover any given volume of space would necessarily require that they overlap.
