I would like this opportunity to suggest a new set of faction epic arc missions that would reward the player with each faction's special edition battleship ( State Raven for example). All this special edition ships should be obtainable through in-game methods and not be just hangar decorations. The have great skins and stats and are already in the game. No big adjustments needed. Just add the epic arc to be completed only after find shiny the main one for faction and be restricted to having like 9.5 or above with the faction to actually get the mission. This could be extended to include more missions at different levels with all the special edition ships in the game.

These ships (regardless of how they are used) were handed out to exceptional pilots that proved themselves by fighting the best and earnt these ships putting billions of isk on the line etc etc.
If any ships were to just be given as rewards for an epic arc, 1) it should not be these, 2 ) they should be no more powerful than the current t1/faction lineup. |

No. These ships are unique and take all of their current value from being so extremely rare. You would **** over a LOT of that value by handing them out to Joe Schmoe. |

Not a lot of the value, ALL of it.
@OP, Why would you want to completely devalue all of these ships? |

If CCP were to give out a free ship at the end of an Epic Arc it should be that Faction's standard Navy version of said ship, based on difficulty. As an example, LvL 4 Epic Arcs would give out a 1 run BPC (not the actual ship) of their Faction's BS like Gallente would give a Navy Megathron BPC. BUT, if they did this, CCP should also make it so you can only rerun each Epic Arc once per 6 months so as not to devalue those ships beyond that of their T1 counterpart. Getting a free BS BPC twice per year PER Epic Arc is plenty of a reward, especially if you consider what BS BPC the Angel Arc would give (currently 1.2 billion on Contracts).

Why should it be a battleship? If the arcs are going to give out special ships, then make them give out a new second type of faction frigate. |

What I said here -> Epic Arc it should be that Faction's standard Navy version of said ship, based on difficulty
The difficulty of the Gallente LvL 4 Epic Arc for example is fairly similar in comparison to several of the LvL 4 Cosmos Agent Missions and they give that Faction's Navy BS BPC as a reward (at 9.9 standing, which is hard to get to), so why would a LvL 4 Epic Arc give out a Frigate? Now, the SoE LvL 1 Epic could certainly give a Frigate BPC, maybe give the player a choice of which Main Faction's Navy Frig they want or something. The reward should coincide with the difficulty.
CCP could also create new Epic Arc of varying levels which would add more flavor to Eve, never a bad thing, but I still think they should reduce the rerun time to once per 6 months. Check out my post about some Drone lovin: Proposed Drone Improvement |

Hello,
i agree with the aforementioned proposal. It will make the arcs that do not actually provide substantial final rewards to be worth doing them.
For example the Caldari arc provides the Mobile Lab and the Gallente the Eagle Drone Link Augmentor which are very good incentives. The other arcs are very little in worth doing compared with the Gallente+Caldari. So, add to the Minmattar and to Amarr 1-run BPC for the Faction Navy BS along with the current reward to make the comparable the same. |

CCP. PLEASE. stop adding ships that most people wont have a chance to see, not to mention fly. I fully support that tournament winners shoud get a proper reward. Give them BPO. Great isk. Winner is in Nirvana state. and all other players are happy as well. And in few years you can make same BPO a prize.
maybe BPO should not have an option to copy it. |

The idea with these special edition ships is poor at basis, I think. Because those ships are artificial, and therefore NON EXISTENT. We'll never see them flying. Those are just an icons in hangars, a decorations, and an ISK sacks, since most of the tournament winners sell those BPC for money anyway. So what so special in those ships than? Just give people 50bil instead of Cambion BPC, what's the difference? For the Real Tournament Winner it will be the same. I would even go further to say, that this tournament system in EVE is a complete crap. For what the hell of a reason, in this so called "sandbox MMO", we have tournaments held by the devs? In real sandbox environment tournaments should be provided by big corporations and alliances. And prizes for those tournaments, such as these ships, should be obtained through very long and complex alliance/corporation level, mixed military/exploration/harvesting expeditions. With other valuable resources of course, since nobody going to risk his caps doing a heavy expedition on enemy territory, just for a frigate. Then, those alliances would put these items as a prizes on tournaments held by them. Gathering fame, popularity, best pilots and maybe some in game bonuses like standings(or something else), through that. And such prize ships themselves should be a part of that fame system. Making a kills with that ships would, for example, give alliance some "influence points" or something like that. So there would be a stimulus to use those ships, and to give them not just to your best friend, but to the best ace in your alliance = motivation for tournaments inside of alliances, if you don't want to give the ship out. |
