Too expensive.
From current point of view, this mechanic can be used in hi-sec and some low-sec scenarios as an escape shuttle and in big null-sec brawls with over 100 BS, to change the warfare tempo.
In my opinion, this mechanic will not be useful in many solo PVP scenarios, as you mentioned, because if somebody will lose his BS heâll be likely to self-destruct his pod to save the time. This mechanic will not be useful in small fleet brawls (under 100 ships), becasue just few droped frigates will not chnange the score significantly.
Also, looks like that almost everybody will fit these reserved frigates to their BS just to have a âtravel fit vesselâ in case if the BS will be accidentally lost or a frigate for intel purposes. Currently itâs not clear exactly how those frigates will be possible to use.

Might be nice to just have a small fast ship on hand so you donât have plod along to the market for a cup of ammo.

Holy Heysoos facking Christus.
If a feature like this had been added around say 2008-2011 players would have been ending up in the hospital suffering from terminal nerdgasms.
Look at this thread.
Took too many years to figure out why nobody wants to play with these people.

No, that would actually be useful.
Yeah? Found any uses for capital scanning and relic/data analyser rigs?

Considering that the anticipated number of people in the open beta was 50,000 and it turned out to be 10x that its probably safe to say you are in the minority. Thatâs likely about 100,000 players online at any given time.
I dont understand whats up wit EVE Players. Ingame they seem to love the game a lot and are one of the most helpful communities i know. Here and in reddit they â â â â on everything CCP and the Devs do. 4 Weeks ago âHey it would be cool if Filaments would be a permanent thingâ --> CCP makes it a permanent thing âThis will totally kill Nullâ
I mean honestly, people really complain because of a red dot and a fetaure that is voluntary.

How do you measure that?
We are grumpy on the forums because we arenât playing Eve while we are on the forums!

My initial assessment without doing any testing is this mechanic seems very powerful. I hope this not so powerful that there would never be a reason to bring any other class of ship to a must win fight. I guess weâll find out.
Why??
More overall tank and dps per player
How do you figure that?
Unless you mean my idea of AF armor in the form of a BS hull wrapped around it with Small Pulses and 4 plates
How? You can be only in one ship at a time.

Could a dev verify, it could PROBABLY work this way or unintended ways, perhaps breaking the way concord reacts.
One can only hope
As I see it itâs really just a second free killmail. Canât wait to see nubs use it.

Canât wait to see you crying about how someone used this against you.
Why would I cry, if people outsmarted or outperformed me then good on them.
