EVE General Discussion

I'd be happy for quite some time if they would simply devote the art dept. to developing unique hulls for the current T2, Navy, and pirate faction ships... similar to what is being done for Stealth Bombers.

With custom paint jobs right around the corner, we need something more distinctive than a different paint job and an odd thruster tacked on to set them apart.

Heavy Bomber
Destroyer sized hull, no weapons and no covert cloak but can mount two or three bomb launchers
- maybe some sort of buff to its bombs resistances so you can fire multiple types of damage bomb without them destroying each other
- might actually encourage use of the non damage bombs simply because you get more than one per hull used

I also like the idea of a ship that deploys like the rorqual does and the deployment gives it some sort of enhanced combat capability, maybe use of capital weapons or some sort of serious buff to regular ones ala dreads in siege.

High sec cross bred Hulk/Orca/Rorqual

Cloaky interceptor: a frigate that can reach MWD speed while cloaked. I don't care about the details, I just want speed + cloak. Well, except for some detail that could make this not the blob's best friend, when a solo AF or whatever is trying to peel people off the blob to kill.

Either as a ship or as a deployable: something that can siphon moon goo from an actively mining POS, reducing its yield and taking the difference. It'd be less useful against anyone who actually lives in the space they 'own'...

A ship designed to find cloaked ships.
Doesnt have to be able to kill, just find. The longer a cloaky stays put, the more likely it is to be found.

say that after 10 - 20 minutes after cloaking, one's cloak begins to bleed energy. Moving the cloak ship would reset timer. The longer a cloak ship is motionless, the more the energy bleeds from its cloak and the easier it will be to scan down by the anticloaky ship. Wouldnt effect anything other then afk cloakers... win / win.

smart bomb ship

I want an industrial ship that actually builds stuff

could come with the new poses, hopefully this winter

Pretty much this

Narwahl
T2 Orca Hull (2.5 bil)
+25% added to strip miner cycle time
+300$ strip miner/ice harvester range
+500% survey scan range

Requires new skill Harvester Barge (requires Exhumers V, Advanced Spaceship #?)
+10% capacity Ore hold per lvl
-5% cycle time per level (similar to mackinaw ice harvester)

Fitting
6 high
2 med
2 low

Shield Armor Structure:
Should be more than hulk, but far less than Orca

Cargo: 0
Ore hold: 50000 (75000 @ lvl 5)
No ship maint bay or corp hangars (no hauling of any thing other than raw ore)

Designed by ORE in YC 113 as a response to calls from mining operations for a more robust mining barge (due to recent attacks ) ORE released this class of Orca-hull ships refitted to mine ore, resulting in more protection and productivity for miners. Internal cargo optimizations come at a cost however, less structural integrity compared to the Orca command class.

Ochre/Gunmetal default paint scheme

A real black-ops battleship :/
