T2 Transport ships

Can we fix T2 Transports (using the Gellente ships for example)

Would be nice to make the Occator into a baby Jump Freighter with its own fuel bay and maybe a fix cargo bay (like on the T1 haulers) of something like 55k so just big enough for 1 packed battleship.

For the other class Viator give them all a second high slot and maybe a scanning bounse to help make them into sneaky Worm Hole haulers also give them a slightly larger but fix cargo of about 16k just big enough for a packed Battlecruiser or T3.

Would give a lot more people the chance to get into low/null sec without having to train/buy a full sized Jump Freighter something that in my opinion is well out of reach for most eve players.

while i kinda like the baby gf idea it would feel a little overpowered jump drives are big real big hence the diffrence in cargo space between a jump freighter and a normal freighter

i would be happy if they changed this class of "blockade runners" into interdiction nullified ships. so they can finally do what they were designed to do

for the cloaky transport i agree a extra high slot would be all is needed to bring the ship up to scratch

the nulli would be for the type that is the blockade runner such as the occator

where as the viator would remain the same as it currently is with a extra high slot so it can still fit a covert ops cloak and a spare high slot for probe launcher/covert cyno so it still keeps the black ops transport feel

Nulli would be nice on blockade runners eh?

Also bigger cargos for all! \o/

Yeah, the BR's are just such the standard go-to ones when it comes to T2 indys. DST's are just a joke and never see use. They need to be massively reviewed and hauled to make them usable.

Anything to make the deep space transports worthwhile. I've never flown, bought, or considered buying one.

blockade runners do not need interdiction nullification at all. It would be nice if they all got a second highslot, but i think prowler pilots would feel justifiably cheated.

DSTs are niche ships and its okay that they are. They should get a significant speed and agility buff to help them with getting bumped out of alignment or decloaked, but they don't need covops ability or the ability to jump or whatever. A nice buff would be to give them a massive auxillary cargobay that can hold anything, so they can use all their lowslots for utility without sacrificing capacity.

"**CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"**

Never forget.

Blockade Runners do not need nullification; they're cloaky, and should be able to sneak past a bubble.

DSTs would certainly be improved by nullification, though.

This needs to happen

Give us a baby JF something inbetween T1 haulers and a capital would be great

Does anyone fly DST's?

Blockade runners are ok in low sec but in null they just get bubbled/decloaked and killed in the first 2 jumps
