Player Features and Ideas Discussion

So I posted this a while back on the old forums, few people liked, few thought it was over-powered, which I almost agree. So I have made some tweaks to it, shut down the power a little on it. Now when you think of a T3, you have to think of it like this "Jack of all trades, master of none", and this is where the legion is probably the most "correct" T3 out there, Recon but can beat it at Neuts, Sac can beat it at HAM's, Zealot can beat it at Lasers, but none of them can do it all. I'm not saying the Legion sucks at those things (since it is a awesome laser/ham/neut boat) but it's not meant to over-power each of the specific classes.

So here is the re-modeled version, made some tweaks, could probably give some more tweaks to improve it though.

So here it is. It's called the "Loyalist" Could probably still use some tweaks here and there though.

I tired not to make it too power, yet the ability to do the role of the AF's, EAF's, CovOps (To an Extent) and Recons (Similar to CovOps). The only thing I didn't give it was Inty-like abilitys. Although one of my favorite parts was the Remote Repair Augmentor Sub, I tihnk it would be cool to have a Frigate that can act like a Mini-Gaurdian. Would also give a use to the useless Deadspace Small Remote Reps

Obviously this ship won't be cheap, but it won't be 500m, Around 100-250m should be the price range for everything including subs.

If you have any suggestions please tell me, would love to see something like this in-game

Yea, that is a good idea, but I'd rather see a web bonus on a minmatar T3 Frig and scram/disrup range bonus on Gall T3 Frig, because you know, that's just their racial stuff.

I'll look into the 5% grid increase, see if something better could go in there, but it's still a relative big bonus due to the small PG requirements of small guns/reppers and stuff. Actually I find CPU more of a issue when fitting frigs then PG
