Disclaimer
This must have come up before, but I can't find any recent topics on this subject so I figured I'd start a new one.

Proposal
When ships and modules of shared origin are used together, they receive a slight performance buff and/or fitting requirement reduction.

Examples
  • All T2 modules have a 5% reduced PG and CPU requirement when fitted to a T2 ship.
  • Blood Raider lasers have 5% reduced activation cost when fitted to Blood Raider ships.
  • Dark Blood lasers have 10% reduced activation cost when fitted to Blood Raider ships.
  • Etc...

    • Synergy bonuses would apply to the following families:
  • T2
  • All Empire Factions
  • All Pirate Factions

    • Synergy bonuses would NOT apply to:
  • T1
  • T3

    • This would be to reflect the generic nature of T1 and the mysterious origins of T3 respectively.

    This is a post of plain stupidity...

    Wouldn't be fair for those who fly solo pvp in a tech 1 ship because they cannot afford t2 ships...
    One of the good things about current pvp is that it can be cheap.

    you know that he means meta 1-4 quit being pedantic

    that said, i really have to ask why... what would this change do other than sacrifice balance for flavor?

    The t2 bonuses are also kind of making them less worthy to run. Most of my full t2 fits I run...I already have my grids clear. Any named gear just personal faves or a case where meta is better.

    This just screams run pirate...which has it owns reason to anyway. OP wisely put gurista in the .....section. So what are your visions of a pure gurista fit Larry, op? You know...the ship that seems to be high on the top 10 ban list for this years AT ? For good reason.

    Basically a highest numbers warrior thread ... NO!

    NO!

    NO!

    If you would have argued from the role-playing side, I might have at least understood the desire for giving an all True Sansha fit Nightmare a shiny new look (cosmetic) ... everything else ... ah, you can guess.
