They could change the material requirements at the same time as they change the ships. The procurer might not be as cheap as it is now.

But I suspect they wont - it appears CCP is taking the easy route with respect to the number of high slots, and I'm guessing that the blueprints wont change either.

The skiff will become the go-to choice for survivable cynos, discuss.

Edit: I mean Procurer not Skiff. Look at the possible tank on this now 85mil isk ship: http://i.imgur.com/LQuMY.jpg


cheap? I think you better look at the new prices on skiffs before you make the assumption it's going to be cheap. saw one for 200 million today..

Oh you mean procurer.... hmm.

For some reason, I think they are pulling the next Inventory UI: open an huge can of worms, see them spread everywhere, then look down with a dumb stare about what to do in order to catch them and put them back in the can.

At least the Procurer now has a viable purpose & will be worth buying.

It will be an expensive cyno ship I'm guessing if people start using this. Still, if it won't die, ı'll just say wow...

Yeah, a Procurer is really expensive.

The big question remains.

Can you mine while sitting with a active cyno? ;)

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

~100m

Procurer is like ~3m and will probably hit 50k EHP.

It's called Drake doctrine, can fit for about 80k EHP +/- 500DPS and still fit a cyno.

I've always wanted an Avatar, but I haven't found one sitting unattended in space yet.
