No it's still there... the ones in black are just ships that are only available to Devs. (You won't find it amongst the frigs b/c on TQ it's classified as a cruiser) You can still pull up the stats by clicking on the ship in your in-game browser. My list represents the TQ database... not SiSi

Echo bonuses also looks very nice. It would be one of the few T1 ships in the game with a small projectile falloff bonus.

I beg of CCP to let us use these things, rather than have them be some sort of one-time gift.

One thing that would really help PVP and faction warfare would be specifically combat capable rookie ships for member of FW militias. As it is now, for everybody, you lose a ship or dock in a pod, you get a free rookie ship. Not much you can do with a rookie ship (unless you are a drone boat leetmeiser fielding 2 T2 drones from a velly and giving short-timers a shock) in FW, but it would probably be a good incentive for FW when they get combat frigates for being in FW.

Just a thought.

The Ixion has been V3'd

Please give it an Artillery/Railgun Bonus and a nice Tracking Link bonus Smile

EDIT: Blog it was taken from

2nd EDIT: Not V3'd but just a premium client model.

Does it use projectiles? Artillery then. The link bonus is there for err because it's different and because they took it off the scytheBear

interesting idea, like a faction logi sort ofUgh Although with any of the currently unflyable angel ships, the stats would have to be overhauled. The medusa has speed less than half that of a battleship, the ixion has 1 lowslot and the lynx is just an overall awful ship based n the stats. also i would want more frigs and cruisers for other pirate factions as well to balance it out

It would be interesting if this was the theme for the next series of expansions... namely Pirates vs The Man.

Players able to bring in new characters aligned with the different Pirate factions vs Faction Militia pilots... with access to properly balanced versions of their ships available for our consumption.

Perhaps even including freeing stations (and whole systems) from Faction control and docking regulations, and possibly involving the ability to shift security status of disputed systems up and down.

It's been hinted at, it would be nice to see it done in this fashion.

There is still the model in the TQ database for that (used for NPC ships), but not the player flyable ship. If you get on some of the development builds (sisi or buckingham) some of the ship in red on my list will pull up a player flyable ship's stats. I don't know why that is or how that works. A few expansions ago CCP Greyscale went on a tear removing 'unused' stuff from the TQ database and with that went the ships. This was never applied to the development servers though. Don't ask me how that's even possible I don't know. That said, concord cruisers, the Ixion, and even the Infested Dominix could still be pulled up for many builds after the TQ purge. I don't know if that's still the case, I haven't tested it recently. I don't generally remove the link or itemID from my ship list when they remove a ship from the TQ database, so if it's still there the link should work in the test client. Maybe they'll bring it back at some point? You could check sisi to find out...

I think its safe to say with 99.99% certainty that the Gnosis will be a tourney ship.
god knows what 2nd prize will be.

I think that you are wrong about the Gnosis, for 3 main reasons.

1) Apotheosis for 5th. Gnosis for 10th. Same ship line and works w/ the lore.

2) Everyone is testing the Gnosis on sisi. CCP is seeking feedback and really trying to balance it into the game's ecosystem. That's not something they do with limited 50-run tourny ships.

3) The logical next iteration of faction warfare is to take it to the pirate factions. CCP has been talking about that since the inception of FW. That would be the vector for distributing pirate rookie ships. Either that or letting people choose a pirate bloodline when they create a character (also a possibility).

I wonder how that will work? Where will the pirate militias fight? Will they be at war with all the hisec empires (and thus pirate militia pilots will get shot at from the navies in hisec)? It will certainly be interesting to see!

I imagine that they will fight in the same systems as FW currently does, but if they win it simply free's them from Faction control. In a sense they could call themselves Freedom Fighters instead of Pirates... which would be true, from a certain point of view. Smile
