Player Features and Ideas Discussion

One of the ship classes not covered by factions is the carrier. There is of course the revenant, a sansha supercarrier, but nothing in between that and the nightmare.

In line with the coming changes to fighter mechanics (which after testing on sisi, I think will make carriers a lot more fun to fly), it would be super cool to have a Sansha carrier to bridge the gap between the Nightmare and the Revenant - which would both add content for PVEers who run incursions (from which the PBCs would presumably drop), and add a cool new ship to the game to go with all the new fighter mechanics that are being introduced.

HP + Fitting:
- Same resist profile as the revenant, but base HP roughly equivalent to the Chimera (this is consistent with the Sansha theme, since the revenant has more base shield HP than armor, like a wyvern but with slightly different resists)
- 5 High Slots, 7 mids, 5 lows

Role Bonuses:
+25% Damage Bonus to all Fighters
+30% Bonus to afterburner and microwarp drive velocity (this is in line with the Sansha role bonuses and the release of new capital sized prop modules - but since Sig Radius bloom from MWDs means nothing on an enormous ship, the bonus would apply to MWDs as well instead of just afterburners)

Blueprint copies would drop from hisec and lowsec incursions, with a drop frequency which would put the price point including build cost around 2.5-3 bil.

You're looking for the Revenant, the BPC for which seems to have been left out of the drop tables.

Or maybe it's in one of those never-before-found exploration sites.

Why.

No new capitals roll we see how the rebalance goes off the carriers are any indication is going well there's not much that up by introducing faction capitals just yet

Why.

You first. Why should the whole risk vs reward thing be completely upset by totally safe isk firehoses in highsec?

Risk vs reward.

There is no risk in a highsec incursion, yet that is where you get one of if not the best rewards. Why is that good.

A goon saying that. Lol

Back to the point of faction capitals, I don't think it should be a priority, but I think it's a logical addition to the ship line ups and that at some point more need to be added.

How and where can be figured out later. I would say null sec drops would be a logical location though.

I want a Dark Blood dreadnaught that can fit 3 capital sized neuts and no guns. I would play havoc on the capacitors of capital ships. The trade off would be that it would do no HP damage and everyone would know why it's on the field as soon as it lands.
