This thread is not for discussion of the 'Revenant' Sansha supercarrier.

I got an idea a little while ago for what a Sansha carrier ought to look like:

So what do you guys think about it? Also, what do you think about the idea of adding a Sansha carrier to the game? What would you name it? And if anyone would like to start drafting up ideas for stats, I'd love to take a look at those as well!

A Sanshas carrier would probably see far more use than the Revenant has. Last I heard there were only two in existence.

The Revenant looks like and is in fact a complete piece of sh*t, bucking the trend that has been established by the other less aesthetic pleasing supers the Aeon and the Wyvern, which are in fact generally useful. The Revenant has bonuses that make it a cross between a Hel and a Nyx, and they are always the first two supers to be primaried before everyone turns to the grim task of grinding through an Aeon's tank. Add to that the inherent bling value of a pirate faction supercarrier and who the hell wants to fly one? Especially when you have to be skilled for two of the best supers in the game?

Faction carriers would at least find their way into the hangars of space-rich nerds of lowsec and null. Give it bonuses to tanking and remote reps and it could be a monsterous triage carrier that might see some ~Elite PvP~ use and end up featuring in a Rooks and Kings video.

Not what I'd call a high priority for the game, but whatever.

Well tbh a T2 Carrier or more role based carrier designs are more needed imo.
- DPS Carrier
- Logistics Carrier
- Ewar Carrier

Also, Dreads need to be taken care off.
Make a tier2 or T2 dread, wich doesnt need to siege, but only does 1/3 of the dps of a normal dread.

Also i am an idiot!

I think all dreads should do at least 1/3rd dps when not sieged.

I like the ideas you have for carriers. Actually I think it'd be neat to add in tech 1 mini-capital versions of those.
