Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Come on CCP we have been waiting forever for this, when will you make it happen?

Caldari - Minmatar Faction is missing in game, content please!

Mordu's Legion would have been perfect, shield and missiles are used by both, I would give them target painter effectiveness instead of warp disruption bonus.
However as a "theory" maybe we could figure out something that could work, I think this is an idea worth talking about.

First question: would a Minmatar group kidnap Caldari scientists or the scientists would seek refuge in Minmatar for some reason?

IMO it'd be thukker tribe, aren't they supposed to use caldari tech anyway?

Active shieldtanker with hybrids and enough paint to make them Railguns apply?

or sturdy shield resists with autocannons?

Are we just trying to design a ship 'for the heck of it', or did you have something in mind here? Please elaborate.

Active shield tanker with Railguns and fast speed sounds good!

Yep, that is something for the time when most of EVE's glaring and gameplay ruining issues have been ironed out, and features that have only been introduced half-finished completed (looking at you, Citadels, Industry, citadel contracts).

Instead of wasting time on yet another lackadaisical feature, CCP ought to concentrate their entire workforce on fixing the features we have at hand, so that we can move on to actually concentrate on introducing new things the right way sooner.

However, a long range rail platform of Minmatar/Caldari origin in combination with Mordu's long range missile/warp disruption platform sounds quite powerful.

... ECM painter?

... sigradius penalty for shield extenders doesn't apply / 5% sig reduction per level?

Can't believe no one has suggested pirate faction shield logistics ship

I think the role being as either a Support ship or Pirate hauler ship would be a great fit for the Minmatar/Caldari cross since, like SOE, it does not need to be a dedicated combat ship.

Just throwing this out there as a cross combat hauler:

Role Bonus: +50% effectiveness of Hull upgrade modules (Expanded Cargoholds, Nanofiber Internal Structures, Reinforced Bulkheads)
Warp Speed +50%

Minmatar bonus 4% bonus to hull damage resistance per level
Caldari Bonus 1km range bonus to Smartbomb and ECM Burst per level.


Ship fitting will be a fight for the lowslots to utilize hull tanking and utility as a transporter, but can still be fitted for a unique use in fleet combat for AOE effects. I would also be tempted to put a generic turret rate of fire or optimal range bonus just in case the user does not want smartbombs for all their highslot weapons.

Possible fleet hanger and a natural warp core strength of 2


Other possible suggestion, more for a Support ship would be the following:
-increases in remote tracking, remote Capacitor Transmitter, remote sensor boosting, and/or signal distortion amplifier
-Warfare Links
-Increased Salvaging/tractor Range/Speed
-Increases to Remote Hull Repair

It'd probably be broken as ****, but an interesting thukker style pirate ship could have an mjd that travels towards its target rather than straight ahead.

Dramatically reduce range, reduce spool up time and cool down. Give it a blaster bonus. = surprise butt sex
