Player Features and Ideas Discussion

As you all already know the Nestor is currently on CCP's table to be completely Re-Worked as it is completely useless at the moment.

For those of you who don't know, the reason it is useless is the following reasons:
- 465m Sigradius on Base......
- Capacitor Issues
- Rep Range is still too short
- If you fit the right amount of damage, you dont have the right amount of tank and visa-versa .

Here is what I propose.

NESTOR

Amarr Battleship Bonuses:
4% Armor resistances per level

Gallente Battleship Bonuses:
10% drone damage and hitpoints per level

Role bonuses:
50% bonus to remote armor repairer amount
400% bonus to remote armor repairer range
50% bonus to remote capacitor transmitter amount (New)
400% bonus to remote capacitor transmitter range (New)
Has a 5,000m Fitting Service (New)

Slot layout: 6H, 5M, 8L; 0 turrets, 0 launchers
Fittings: (TBD) PWG, (TBD) CPU
Defense (shields / armor / hull): 8,000(8900) / 12,000(9950) / 8,000(9900)
Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap/s) : 7000 / 1025 / 7
Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 92 / .18 / 56000000 / 13.97
Drones (bandwidth / bay): 125 / 500
Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 75km / 85 / 7
Sensor strength: 24 Magnetometric
Signature radius: 400m
Cargo Capacity: 700

Also Nesto should be no more between 500 - 600mil, their current cost is BS

Edited

I meant everything like:

Slot layout: 6 (7) H, 5 (6) M, 8 (6) L; 0 (7) turrets, 0 launchers
Fittings: (11.250) PG, (680) CPU
Defense (shields / armor / hull): 8,000 (8900) / 12,000 (9950) / 8,000 (9900)
Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap/s) : (7000) / (1025) / (7)
Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): (92) / (.18) / 56000000 / (13.97)
Drones (bandwidth / bay): (125) / (500)
Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): (75)km / 85 (125) /(7)
Sensor strength: (24) Magnetometric
Signature radius: 400m (465)
Cargo Capacity: (700) m3

Role bonuses:
(50)% bonus to remote armor repairer amount
400% (200%) bonus to remote armor repairer range
50% bonus to remote capacitor transmitter amount (New)
400% bonus to remote capacitor transmitter range (New)
Has a 5,000m Fitting Service (New)

Since you changed the slot layout, launchers etc. and left PG and CPU untouched. This would have been my first interest, since I found it hard to fit anything, but you removed all high weapon slot all together, so I guess I would not need PG and CPU anymore °°

Am also skeptical about a fitting service ... well, doesn't work cloaked or flying solo. But with your layout, flying solo is not really an issue either. And am not sure you need m3 for a fitting service anyway.

There have also been issues with BS logistic suggestions here a lot, so making it a BS Guardian is a no-go. The range was good as it is on reps and this means a no to cap generation,

I disagree, since The basic costs depend on LPS and SoE have the highest and its what 600.000 mil LP ? This makes it basic 1.2 bil +. And most LP run for SoE are in High Sec, so there is your basis for it. But lets not haggle about the price while the while ship is still in a mess.

@edit: I assumed you meant the market also controls the value below production cost, which came up before a lot and ppl saying it will drop to 600mil if nobody uses it. Which I pointed out was ludicrous since nobody would build them for 1,3 bil and then sell them for lack of demand for less then half. - Forgive me if I jumped ahead and cut that away ,)

By that argument the price of a product never changes. I never denied that CCP has an influence. I denied that they have control.

make it a black ops logistic ship.

how many people are going to keep saying the nestor is, change it.

How about you take the ship and use it as is. it isn't that bad, it only costs more than it is worth.

The only thing that could be really powerful with the fitting service is the ability to use a fleet of nestors like mini slowcat archons with the ability to swap out damage for max tank when focused yes this is why I suggested the fitting service .

this dea looks nice except fitting services.

for those who want it as a black-ops logistics ship hell no for that they should tweak the sin if it's really needed in my opinnion it's not.
while at it put the hull itself on hte art table again casue o nstats and looks ccp must have had a eat xtc all day theme night at work.

rebalance a bs that is what ccp can but when it comes of inventing a wheel or fire it seems a bit hard at current.
but i stay hopefull.

Ore are mostly shield tanked or rely on shields more than armour as the buffer. So armour tanking the Nestor doesn't make sense. You should use a Caldari shield bonus.
