Should the fueled shield booster be receiving bonuses to boost amount from ship bonuses and shield boost amplifiers?

It also doesnt double-dip like all the other damage boosters (rof + damage)

Basically its a terrible module at the moment.

And so... it ends....


I hope not...

I disagree. Size shouldn't = immunity via game mechanics.


Not saying I'd dec Goon etc. But the system in general, and even when decs are placed. If it is a contract to achieve such and such goal at a price like that, and the ability for targets to dock up and ride out... its over.

Im not the only one who feels this way, im just frustrated enough to get on the forums.

Size should not cause the wardec cost to scale linearly - that's fundamentally unbalanced given how EVE works. If size is a factor, then there needs to be diminishing returns (such as cuberoot() or quadroot() scaling).

And I have to give a big thumbs-down to any idea of introducing new T1 modules which do not come with BPOs. Why should these modules be "special" compared to the other thousand T1 meta-zero modules? If you're only going to do them as BPC drops then those BPCs should be for the meta 1-4 or faction variants. Not the base meta-zero item.

You must admit that current wardec fees are simply too cheap. 50 million to wardec an alliance for a week, thats like mining for 2 hours in highsec or an hour of missioning. With the ease of making isk, costs must come up to compensate for inflation.

Is the new resistance-shifting module actually named 'Armour Adaptive Hardener'? There's already an 'Adaptive Nano Plating' and an 'Energised Adaptive Nano Membrane'.

Active modules are named hardeners and omni-resist modules are named adaptive.

'Armour Adaptive Hardener' sounds like a capacitor-using (hardener) omni resist (adaptive), but it acts differently to omni-resist modules?

First In no way am I trying to spit on the work and time that was put into these new systems, I thank you guys for all your time and effort, that is one of the many reasons I play EVE still to this day, and trust me there are many things that have changed since I started early '04 to now that I dislike A LOT.

but...

Let's be straight and honest no candy coating.
The entire present war system is "cheap", as in low quality on many levels, cost and how cost is determined being one.
The new system should have caps, so that "large" groups are not immune, otherwise it will have a major ripple effect.


Also the present system isn't all that bad, we spend 400+ mil on decs weekly, plus contracts blah blah, and sometimes net very few kills per those contracts.... The present cost system isnt all that flawed, it could have used fine tuning, not a complete over haul.


IMO

This new war system should be done in stages.

Stage 1: LOCK the war system, evaluate loopholes, exploits, etc, fine tune. -- Listen to feedback --
Stage 2: Fine tune costs system, evaluate loopholes, exploits, etc, fine tune. -- Listen to feedback --
Stage 3: Evaluate all systems, listen to feedback from actual high-sec alliances/corps that utilize the system FULL TIME
Stage 4: Fine tune (dont wait 5 years to re-vise the system, get it right, and be done with it so other things can be resolved)

Have CSM round table alliance/corp leads from well known HS groups, which is very simple, we've been down this road already.


and now onto this part



MERCS do not make much money outside kills/contracts. This is to say if we consider each merc has 1 account, certainly some of us like myself have many, but typical Joe Blow might not have time/resources to make the money to make a start-up MERC corp, thus he can not play the game the way he'd like to experience it. Experienced players may have alts/access to WH/Missions/Incursions,0.0 sure, but let's not take this beyond the basic. Because once passed basic, a cost system doesn't matter.

Time is also a factor, especially for groups that need all their pilots. Not everyone has time to devote to being a combat pilot, and a pver, some depend on PVP for isk.

There are a lot of factors to consider outside of typical assumption, assuming is easy, fact finding is not.

Just type 800 into the cargo bay filter. Presto.. only items with 800 (like cap booster 800) will show.

That drone damage module is a joke. Every drone ship out there is already strapped for CPU and the module has a very high CPU requirement, just like the other drone upgrade modules that never see the light of day for any actual combat. Also drone rigs take away your CPU.

What the hell are you guys smoking up there?!
