So I run incursions, and had a discussion with the group I run with. I proposed the idea to replace the Hull Repair drones model with the salvage drone model and just re texture it. I don't understand why the Dev's used the Gallente drone models, but so far the salvage drone model has been used only for the salvage drone, so I now propose that a change be mad to make it look like the salvage drone and give it a red and white texture to give it an SOE look. Its just and Idea and I'd love to hear what you think and perhaps what the dev's say.

They should obviously be Minmatar drones.

I was about to say something exceedingly similar until I saw this -

For posting an idea into F&I: come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it..... If your idea can be abused, it [u]WILL[/u] be.

Actually, Gallente used to be the structure tankers. You can still see it in most of their ships which tend to have much higher structure hp than the other factions. I haven't looked at the new hull repair drones so im not sure if they use them.

But Minmatar STILL structure tank!

And I think Gallente having higher hull HP makes sense for low EHP armor tankers. Too easy for the poor bastards to slip into hull when their tank hasn't broke yet.

And why is this an extra thread and not in the STICKY about HULL REPAIR DRONES, which DEVs read? Do you think you are a special flake?

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

I am closing this thread for being redundant, as there is already a thread on Hull Repair drones here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=317033&find=unread
