Living in WH space is supposed to be difficult, I get it. But some things are just a little unbalanced, guys that live in 0.0 get to have a POS that is fully defended and supports all of their stuff, why can't WH residents get the same. A POS specialized for the assembly of T3 components and hulls with its defenses, not suggesting more CPU or PG, maybe a roll boost that cuts the CPU requirement for T3 arrays

This way you wont get guys buying up these POS's and utilizing them for other things and adding more imbalance to the game.

It's SUPPOSED to be difficult.

And its actually not that hard to take care of.

Takes planning and a little elbow grease.

The only POS change I'll welcome aside from the obvious is a ORE Faction towers for favor towards refinement...but nothing else aside from POS mechanics and functionality.

We do not need a WHS POS.

0.0 Pos's get smashed to tiny bits by cap and supercap fleets. A threat the wh pos will never face.

lolrandom WH tower that's better then other towers for no reason makes no sense, no.

A module or something that you can fit to a tower, in WH or no, that would let you do things like, say, add/remove subsystems from a T3 would be nice... that's already a CSM topic, but one worth noting and pushing.

Never been to a wormhole have we?

But i agree not needed. You just need someone in your corp that cares about logistics so that you dont have to.

When was the last time your C1 POS got dropped by 20 supercarriers?

but I don't have a dog in this fight, never lived in a WH for more than a day. If the experts say it's not needed, I'll defer to them.

Confirming I am an expert on the matter and that such a POS is not needed.

This has never happened in the history of Eve. Ever.

Now... the specialized WH pos... granted it's not needed, but it's really not a horrible idea. The trick would be to keep balance with existing pos's and do so in a way that doesn't make the wh pos more advantage to place in empire than current pos's. As such... I don't think it's feasable.

However...

I would like to see pos rigs introduced.

Six months in the hole... it changes a man.
