Upgrading Navy-1 sites to Navy-5.
All Navy-1 sites need to be upgraded to NAVY-5 to promote more PvP in sites. As it stands, usually one ship will be present in a Navy-1 due to the LP being awarded which usually sees the single FW ship being pounced by a fleet of five or more. Making the Navy-1’s into Navy-5’s will keep more FW pilots in the Navy-5 which means more ships will engage in PvP.
Or make the Navy-1 possibly escalate to the next higher tier.
For example, a Caldari Small Nvy-1 could escalate into a Caldari Small Esc (escalated) Nvy-5 at some point during the timer run down and even a Caldari Nvy-5 Escalated site. When the site escalates, a new timer would appear that must be run down in order to capture. An escalated site will always have longer timers and yield more LP.
An escalated site will also have NPC defenders that warp in, similar to the Supply Cache, The largest NPC that warps into a first Tier escalated site would be cruisers with battlecruisers being the largest NPC in Navy-5 Escalated site.
In a Navy-5 Escalated site, there would also be two cargo containers that would open after the Navy-5 Escalated timer has been ran down and the site captured allowing either faction to loot the cargo containers. Loot drops could be anything from either faction militia LP store, Cal/Galmil or Am/Minmil, depending on which side you are fighting for.
An Entosis Link could be used to increase the percentage of chance of escalating the Small Navy-1 to a Small Escalated site and then to the Navy-5 Escalated site, 75% and 45% respectively. Only a percentage of Small Nvy-1 sites would be able to be escalated, but all Small Nvy-1 sites would have the Entosis Link node.
