New idea for a rigs

Three new rigs for small medium and large hulls.

Options would be

+1 high slot turret or launcher
+1 medium slot
+1 low slot

Suggest even with high rigging skills there would be no chance of fitting more than 1 rig due to high fitting requirements.

T2 variants could increase cpu and pg

Not useable on t3c hulls

I’d rather see something like a stimp, ie:

• Placed in an empty low-sec slot gives you 1 high
• Placed in an empty empty high-sec slot gives you 1 mid
• Placed in an empty mid slot gives you 1 low

One per ship (maximum) and the maximum number of modified slots cannot exceed eight (8). The only difference between a T1, T2 and Faction version would be fitting costs.

CCP is kind of tight on how many slots ships should have so this idea won’t work with them.

On other hand I really like t3 ships with their flexibility and all,hope we get new ones for other classes eventually

Yes, because balance is so important… (cough) … mutaplasmids… (cough).

I mean, some ships are so op (not you Gila!) that short of a waiting on a rebalance that could take years, players are left with no choice to go with the flavor of the month. And can you blame them?

Don’t forget ā€œthe NES will only ever have cosmetic itemsā€ and ā€œSP from injectors have to be trained on another character firstā€.

It’s not like we don’t have ample proof for CCP promising one thing and justifying a change with it, only to piggyback on their words shortly after.

Ship needs more cpu slightly more base speed and improved capacitor to name a few

Maybe in several years you’ll get your wish. ā€œWe just rebalanced the Zealot. It’s not due to be revisited for some timeā€¦ā€

Not the first time its been proposed, probably wont be the last. People have trouble thinking ideas through.

I do know however, that this will never happen. Way too hard to balance. Slots are very influential on a ships power and not all slots are equal on every ship. Especially on frigates where one extra low slot is like an increase of 33%. And what about the daredevil that has a 200% damage bonus to turrets…one gun increases it’s damage bonus by 50% from 6 effective turrets to 9!!!

It’s proven hard enough to balance t3’s (ccp gave up on the previous design philosophy and just decided ā€˜Meh. They can be op’.).

Please think ideas through for a few minutes when posting.

Heh heh heh. Fleet of 100 Daredevils with one extra gun each and fleet boosts. The Amar would have a hay day comapring that fleet with the biblical plauge of locusts in modern day Eve.

In most cases, the +1 low or mid is going to be a must-fit rig. Unless you’re severely limited in CPU and PG resources, you can simply do a lot more with a mid or low vs. a rig.

+1 turret or launcher is basically impossible to balance, and will just strongly favor ships with fewer base turrets. For example, if you add 1 turret to a 6 turret battlecruiser, you get a 16.6% increase in damage. If you add 1 turret to a two turret frigate, you get a 50% increase in damage.
