New kind of ships

Hello
Recently I looked through in Eve lists of the ships with their description and noticed one feature.
So, if we look at the ships presented in game, we will notice here that:
- There are ships intended for miners. I mean the ships with obviously expressed bonuses for such activity in Eve;
- There are ships for occupation by space research;
- There are ships for passing of missions;
- There are ships for transportation of goods;
- There is a ship for such occupation as сальваг.
But... there is no ship with obviously expressed bonuses on such occupation in game as... Piracy. (what it there can be bonuses - a question discussed)
Therefore I would like to make the offer, about input of the similar ship in game.
Now I will try to explain that it can be for the ship and what purposes in my opinion can be at it. I will tell at once - opinion my personal and the correct doesn't mean. And only idea которуя I put forward it.
So
1 . This ship can't be more cruiser.
2 . This ship has to have no more than three bonuses, and one of these three bonuses has to be with the fixed value (the general for all - for example on speed скана a cargo compartment of the purpose), the second bonus purely racial - for example at Minmatar on ship speed under the accelerator and or MWD. And the third bonus on something else. Here it is necessary to think. and I don't speak about the super ship.
3 . This ship shouldn't break the main balance of game.

That is an essence such - to enter the new ship into game or to change characteristics in this or that party at any existing ships of game, so that in the list there was a ship with obvious bonuses on a piracy.

I would like to learn your opinion on this offer
Yours faithfully

ships for piracy -> any of them that can fit guns

ships for smuggling -> yes, this would be fun.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Ships for piracy, I am goin to go out on a limb and say "Pirate Faction Ships"

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

Specifically Blood Raider ships, and to a lesser extent Angel and Serpentis ships.

There are also ships for smuggling: Blockade Runners. Though in my opinion we do need mechanics to be introduced, such as a skill that reduces the success rate of cargo scanners being used on you, or something similar.

/common sense.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

wouldn't a blockade runner and deep space transport be smuggling ships. like people said. pirate faction ships are pirate specific ships. every bonus a pirate will ever need is found on the current hulls

There is no hard and fast rule that says a certain type of ship can only perform a certain activity. People have been known to kill battleships in industrial ships.

Piracy is an activity and way of life... not necessarily a ship type.

Talking about piracy: How About Making PIRATE FACTION ships immune to concord scanning? So player could smuggle drugs and other things in it...

Let's tell so not immunity on scanning of its cargo bay, and something another. Something the close in fact to chance of a successful salvage

Approximately so: 3% for level to reduction of chance of successful scanning of a cargo bay of the ship by representatives of the Concord
