How about... Faction and Deadspace rigs?

add in some odd chance that rigs will somehow show up in PVE/PVP ship loot and there you go...

meh.

Never forget.

i'll +1 it. though not showing up in loot. just make for shinier kills.

Though i think this could lead to balancing issues. which i doubt after going through every ship in the game they probably dont want to rebalance them again to account for faction rigs

Faction rigs I'd actually rather like, Deadspace ones... Considering Deadspace modules are drops, and rigs don't drop, I don't particularly think that would work. It makes sense that you could acquire the rigs intact from LP stores, though.

It's an interesting idea but I don't think you should see the rigs them self drop, since rigs never drop if they are equiped to a ship. Instead I think it would work better if faction/deadspace rig bpc's dropped. Other then that I think this a cool idea.

Rigs could just drop as BPCs, same way ships do.


@OP, I kind of like it.

Perhaps you should 'salvage' a single run BPC as your salvage scanners read the rig layout allowing you to reproduce it.

Faction rig BPCs dropping from data sites.

Or alternatively, Faction/deadspace rig bpcs could drop from Rogue Drones. Seeing that they already drop bpcs in random rats and it would invigorate drone space/drone sites a bit.

No matter how they're implemented I think it's a pretty neat idea.
