[PROPOSAL] Static Anomalies

Lowsec

Well my aim d be primarely to animate some more low sec. It can be done in pretty much simple way. I know that there are already some static anomalies around but they are not so interesting. What i had in mind was to make those more meaningful.

Make some static anomalies harder, that they need at least 10 guys to be completed, but those anomalies/plexes should bring quite a bunch of isk. Also the respawn of that anomaly should be randomized and should be once per week. The cooldown would run every Sunday at 00.00 o clock and during the next week the complex d spawn randomly. Make some different plexes appear in different timezones always.

The plexes wont bring immense amount of isks but by doing it once per week it should be enough to cover some expenses for small low sec or pirate corps. The number d be around 1 bil guaranteed per week. So 4 bills per month.

The sum aint some wonder but d have some nice effects. Low sec corps/pirates would gather around it, would make strongholds/homes around it. There would be fights/wars over em. Highsec/null gangs would come to do them. Ppl that want fights would know some certain places where some corps are. There d be ganking of fleets while they doing plexes.

Highsec

Make the same tweaks for some current static anomalies for the highsec too. Make some easiest ones where only frigates could enter and min of ppl would be again 10. And make the isk/hour better than lv 3 missions.

And a bit harder ones where frigs, destroyers and cruisers would be only able to enter and u d need min of 10 ppl. also make the isk/hour a bit better than doing lv 4 solo. In both of the plexes make some faction drops possible.

What it d achieve, we ll it d some content for that first 2-3 months gap where new players are very much restricted. When they are solo they could do missions, mine, explore, salvage for others etc. But there d be some corps, community that d be built around these plexes and ppl will have more fun doing it in a group. More fun and a bit more of isk for the bothering to make 10 man groups.

After those first 3 months players can alredy start doin lv 4 missions solo or slowly preparing for incursions which d be the next step.

A once-a-week plex wouldn't generate enough content to be worth the development effort. 52 times a year?

For highsec ones they defo should be more often. As i stated they should be farmable and have a bit bigger isk/hour than missions but only up to cruiser hull.

But in low sec they should be imo once per week. My aim is not to make them a persistent content where low sec corp will get bloody rich and they d even attract large 0.0 alliances. If they are once per week but let say in every low sec region and NPC 0.0 there is only 1. Thats quite a lot of static anomalies. And ppl would defend their virtual space so they are able to farm that one and attack others static anomalies.

These should be a content alone but more like an addition to what lowec is offering atm.
