New probes for interdictors?

been thinking about it right now interdictors are predictable 100%
warp in, drop a bubble die / get out
lay on the gate, drop bubble jump or get out
and thats more or less the only role they have and were thinking about what can be done to add more styles to dictors
and came up with the idea of 5 new probes

all would work the same way as bombs, flight straight in a line in the alignment the interdictor would have
1 that would fly 100km and and be a mobile bubble that would deploy on launch and then move the 100km with the bubble up
4 that would fly 25, 50, 75 and 100km and then deploy a bubble

all 5 would have a short lifespan and a smaller bubble radius

Bad idea. Interdictors are way too powerful already.

Sounds like a wonderful way to make sure your dictors never die again.

Not sure how it would make them more powerful if they made defender missile i work against all type of interdictor probes if more was made

I'll disagree with the above and say the concept is pretty neat.

Don't agree with your numbers though.

well the concept i feel could bring new life into interdictors in general numbers and things can be set at what see fit by ccp.

but yeah like now you only see sabres and every one flies them and rarely see the 3 others. and i wouldn't say they are overpowered as they are now and i feel like interdictors need something new and with the new defender missiles i see no reason not to include new probes and make defender missiles pop bubbles also

The only one you don't see often is the eris, to be honest.

And if you want to lob bubbles around, get a super. Pirate
