Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Say hello to the newest pirate faction in New Eden, Mordu's Legion.


Mordu's ships are focused on three main themes: speed, missiles, and warp scram/disruptor range. The primary goal is to have a very capable set of kiting ships that are especially attractive to PVPers. They will get bonuses from Caldari and Gallente spaceship command skills. We initially wanted to fill the Caldari/Minmatar faction gap, but the existing factions didn't really support that and adding story and assets for an entirely new faction wasn't practical. Mordu's Legion suits our goals extremely well in every other way so we are very happy with them (and their scary stealth pizza pan art).

Look forward to hearing what you guys think, we are pretty excited.

They can be purchased from the Mordu’s Legion LP store in Pure Blind for the following prices:

Garmur Blueprint: 20,000 LP and 10,000,000 isk
Garmur: 80,000 LP and 5,000,000 isk
Orthrus Blueprint: 80,000 LP and 20,000,000 isk
Orthrus: 240,000 LP and 15,000,000 isk
Barghest Blueprint: 400,000 LP and 100,000,000 isk
Barghest: 800,000 LP and 80,000,000 isk

The larger part of the supply will come from a set of new NPCs that will spawn in all lowsec asteroid belts. These will be uncommon npcs with a similar rarity to hauler spawns. Each NPC will appear by itself and will drop the blueprint for its associated ship 100% of the time. The chance of these Mordu’s Legion NPCs spawning is equal in all areas of lowsec.

2nd and I don't care, better than last!

200% bonus to speed + 50% penalty to flight time = 50% bonus to range.


Where X is speed, and Y is flight time:
XY is Range.

With bonuses and penalties:
3X * 0.5Y = 1.5XY

Still kinda miffed that Mordu's Legion ships aren't ECM based like the lore dictates.

Viable rocket ship, yeaaaaaaah

yay for missiles.


do you have some example numbers for missile ranges?

bah i am too slow!

edit:

interesting stats...

though i was really hopping for a mixed cal/min factions...

question will you guys actually do this in the future now that development has changed?

garmur is my new best friend

Would love some information on wether or not we'll be seeing BPCs drop.

They even have a non-stick coating!
