How about a skill to reduce sig penalty from extenders

this would just become a mandatory skill to train

and it would mean ccp would have to up the base sig penalty

How about instead we get some sig reduction modules or rigs? Right now sig reduction is only really do-able with implants

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.

Not aware of such implants, what are they?
We have X-instinct also though.

On topic: reminds me of "armor honeycombing" (later "layering") CCP introduced instead of, you know, rebalancing modules.

So no. If you think sig bloom is too high, ask for stat change instead.

We already have Skirmish links, Halo implants, and X-Instinct boosters. Use them.

Additionally, we do not need to invite CCP to add another skill to reduce this. If they do that, you can bet your bottom dollar that CCP will increase signature radius for all ships by 20%, then make the skill reduce signature radius by 5% per level. The upshot is that you will spend 10 days training a skill to be 5% better off. No, thank you.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Azetropic Ward something shield extenders are a thing now. Yolo-swag skirmish links + halo-set + x-tinct makes people cry every time.
Especially when you are trying to shoot a destroyer that has a smaller signature radius than an escape pod Blink (18m for the Confessor in tank mode - pod has 25m).

Yeah and for reasons™ unknown some slave- errm barba- errm minmatar have even better shield tech.

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!
