What if a ship self-destruct created an AOE detonation wave?

I personally like this idea. I Read an eve book once, and I'm pretty sure one ship blew up and had a blast wave and everything.

I'd love it, the "AoE" idea when a ship blew up.

I'd also like to see the amount of damage incrementally increased by the skill level the pilot had with that ship skill (ie, Amarr Cruiser 5 being more dangerous to those in the AoE than Amarr Cruiser 4).

Oh, and I want that damn Corpse Launcher, too.

like the idea but only if it comes with random explosion delay

for example

Frigate 1-2sec
Cruiser 1-4sec
Battleship 1-5sec
Carrier 1-10sec
Titan - 1-15sec

Amazing idea. Have a set of skills to improve your explosions.

Random delay and large damage range (could do from 10-1000 damage) would make it still fun but less abuseable.

Give structures a "explosives dampening field" which stops people suicide bombing station undocks and gates.

I believe he said 25k hp, not 25k ehp.

25k damage removes 25k EHP ,assuming the damage dealt by the weapon has the same resist profile as what's used to calculate the EHP - 25k EM damage will remove 25k EHP as calculated using EM resist only.

I can see it now, flying to Jita undock, and the this message is displayed across the screen as I land, "Liam Inkuras has begun self destruction of his Orca, and will explode in 2 minutes." The whole grid clears out.

I wear my goggles at night.

I too have wonder why we don't have this. You pop a battle ship class hull either by pushing the big red button under the glass or by being a ordinance magnet. I'm sure that the fusion reactor is going to have something to say about it.

And I am sure they tried and fired many shots before they died. I am sure they did not simply self-destruct.

You want to try again to come up with a response or shall we just say this was not the best of yours?



I think she's referring to the mission where you fly a ship with a bomb planted on it and literally suicide bomb an outpost for mission success.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.

WTF is there some kind of transponder in the smartbomb module that detects that its illegally close to a station and won't activate?

You'd think that if you build the ship and smartbomb module yourself you could, oh I dunno, just NOT INSTALL THE TRANSPONDER?

Talk about breaking immersion...
