It's lies. All lies. They're trying to get us all to do those rubbish drone sites that are worthless
Not seen a single drop yet. Probably gonna start ignoring the drone sites again due to them being worthless |

Looks like Rise has failed twice with this ship. First with the lack luster design of the ship (no cloak or jump drive) and second with his attempt to reduce the cost of the ship.
Just add a covert cloak ability which would justify the current high price and make the ship desirable to more that a handful of people. +1 |

The question that everyone's avoiding is at what price is the Nestor even going to be attractive to prospective buyers? I still see these hovering around $1.6-billion (-¦$50-million), and to be blunt - no amount of BPC drops are going to reduce the price down to the $600-$800 million price point that it needs to be in its current configuration.
GÇó It lacks enough power grid to run the largest lasers to take advantage of the optimal range bonus; the Rattlesnake is also a hybrid setup and does not have any issue running four cruise missile or torpedo launchers. GÇó Aside from the logistics aspect, it doesn't feature anything unique that would lend itself to use in wormholes. A Covert Ops cloak or the ability to run a Clone Vat Bay would probably justify the current price and give it a role of a wormhole mothership.

Given it's niche role and the fact that is other ships can do its job better, i I don't thing it is that much more valuable that a standard T1 ship battle ship. Our corp guardians cost around 400 mill and that's probably as much as i would be willing to pay for it.
However if it had a cover cloak, i would be willing to pay 1-1.5 billion so that our corporation had some cloaky logi for special situations. +1 |

why dont CCP just force down the prices with sell orders at the target price they are looking at, a week of that and the nestor market will be stabilized around that price.

Cov ops cloak and more PG is what it needs- and don't say it'll be OP with a Cov ops, because it'd have no recalibration time reduction, Battleship scan res, and battleship align time- it wouldn't make it terribly different at all except for mobility- like in a WH fleet- as it is right now it'd give any fleet away and get them all killed- the cloak would make that just fine. |

Adding Cov ops cloak, increasing PG would make it "worth it" to me- the cloak wouldn't be OP at all and would fit with the theme, and the ship currently can't use both of it's weapons systems effectively- look at the rattlesnake- it can use drones and missiles with no problem- why can't the nestor make use of its weapons? |

Adding covert cloak and increasing PG you then have a very OP combat logistics battleship.
CCP learnt from the Stratios (DPS nerfed before release - 5 drones to 4) and so the Nestor could never live up to player expectations as a "Combat Battleship" it was designed is as.
Unfortunately the Nestor currently has no role.
Way too expensive for exploration - and who wants to do exploration in a battleship without a cloak. Flying solo gate to gate in a battleship (especially 1 that costly) is just suicide. Even with an Astero and Stratios scouting, your gonna die at the 1st gate camp. It can't fill a logistics role well - not enough range on the remote reppers - and again WAY too expensive Can't fit the "biggest guns" so not really suitable for a combat role (according to some) But if it gets a covert cloak and an extra - what, 3000 PG do you? It will suddenly be worth 1.6bil isk?
I'd like to hear your logic behind it needing more PG and a covert cloak, I would bet it has nothing at all to do with exploration (SOE ship theme and role) and has everything to do with - biggest guns for pvp btw the difference between mega pulse and dual heavy pulse with Conflag is 33dps tachyons require 6000 extra pg,mega beams 4,500 extra pg, so how muc extra PG does it need? Dual Heavy Beams, Dual Heavy Pulse, no extra PG
You want unified ship lines - you are stuck with the Nestor as it is - it fits with the roles of the other 2 SOE ships The Nestor isn't a combat battleship, SOE designed it as a Support battleship for Stratios and Astero for exploration.
You don't want the Nestor to fit in with the SOE ship theme - You want the Nestor to be a covert battleship so you can use it for PVP.
If we are to have a "support battleship" why not in the guise of a mini carrier, it fits with the role SOE designed it for and is not OP. It is also useful in PVP, can cloak, 600+ DPS from Sentries and can apply full armor logistics.

Actually, no. And my suggestions wouldn't make it for PVP- I don't even PVP. I'd just like to see it have it.
As for the increased PG, why should it not be able to fit both of its weapons systems (lasers and drones), like the rattlesnake (missiles and drones) without additional mods, even though it's worth over 3x as much as the rattlesnake?? That's not an unreasonable thing to ask.
I want the ship to be a viable choice for more than extremely niche players- and I want it to be GOOD. Right now it is not GOOD.

And the covert cloak is so it'd be usable in wormholes more easily, without giving away whoever else it was flying with.
Another suggestion to make it usable in wormholes:
"Drones controlled by this ship will not be targeted by sleeper drones", the same way they don't attack the zephyr- it'd make it fun and usable against sleepers. |

GÇó Fleet hangar and fitting service is fine, but you can't exclude high-sec... so no. GÇó Black Ops cloak bonus is unique to Black Ops... so no. GÇó Covert Jump Portal Use... definitely no. GÇó Slot reassignment, this deviates from the other SoE ships... so no. GÇó 50% armor repair activation cost, definitely too powerful... no, no and no.
The Nestor should be geared towards wormhole space. It would make much more sense to configure it as follows:
New Attributes: GÇó Fleet Hangar Capacity: 5,000 m3 GÇó Maximum Jump Clones = 1 GÇó Fuel Bay Capacity 500 m3 Note: There is no hangar maintenance bay and the fleet hangar is only large enough to accommodate one SoE shuttle - which is prominently featured on the underside of the Nestor (the idea here is to allow for a single jump clone to accommodate an alt or team mate, not to replace the Rorqual and not make it overly powerful).
Role Bonuses: GÇó 90% reduction in Clone Vat Bay powergrid requirement (replaces laser bonuses) GÇó 50% bonus to Remote Armor Repairer and Remote Shield Boost amount GÇó 200% bonus to Remote Armor Repairer and Remote Shield Boost range GÇó Can fit Covert Ops Cloaking Device (no reactivation delay reduction)
New additions: GÇó SoE Shuttle I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

Covert Cloak was recon, covert ops specific until stratios and astero, so saying blops cloak bonus is unique to Black ops is saying Stratios and Astero should not have covert cloak. There is no reason SOE could not have obtained the tech to put Blops cloak capability on to the Nestor. They did obtain the covert cloak tech for Stratios and Astero.
Can't have assembled ships in fleet hanger so it would need to be Ship maintenance array (no biggy) although I can't see the plus with having a shuttle you can jump to in a wh. It is of absolutely no use except to leave an already scanned down exit and if your going to do that, why not just reship in your pos? And where does the clone you are jumping from go? Unless they change jump cloning so you can jump to a WH from known space, the clone vat bay is somewhat wasted.
The Dual Repair bonuses - yes, I didn't add shield bonuses to my suggestion as it is meant to be an armor boat along the lines of the Oneiros. Giving it shield reps would be good.
The 50% reduction in Activation cost is not really needed, 1 heavy cap booster and you can perma run 3 large armor reppers for 5 mins 50 secs. The cap reduction was to help it be "good" at its logistic role. 200% range bonus gives you 25.2k, ok in a small fleet as long as everyone is close together. 60k range you have a chance to rep your fast moving tackle, 25k range = dead tackle.
CCP has no intention of doing anything to the Nestor to help it fit player ideas of useful.
The best thing that could happen to the Nestor right now - Remove it from game so at least the collectors who have purchased them have a valuable asset. It could become the new Guardian-Vexor.

Sgt Ocker wrote:CCP has no intention of doing anything to the Nestor to help it fit player ideas of useful. I think this sums up all discussions with the Nestor to-date. Realistically, I think the chances of a Covert Ops cloak are less than zero. The Rorqual just got nerfed, so I don't see a Clone Vat Bay in the Nestor's future either. I think if the Nestor is going to be the only Pirate logistics, I think it should be dual armor-shield. I don't that drags it completely out of the abyss, but it's a start.
But here's my original suggestion for the Nestor: Turn that funky SoE rescue shuttle into a feature, by allowing you to leave the Nestor in the shuttle while the Nestor automatically cloaks behind you. This doesn't require a separate cloak module, and only activates when you travel 2000m from the ship. This means you'll need to bookmark it to find your way back, and it also means someone else can inadvertently stumble across the Nestor. What's unique about the SoE shuttle? It features an integrated Covert Ops cloaking device for exploration. You can park the Nestor at the entrance of a wormhole (or gate) and take the shuttle through to scout ahead, then return to the Nestor when it's safe to proceed. Voila. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

After 40 sentient spawns I just gave up farming for the nexus chips. Zero dropped, while I earned about 3 bil ISK bounties.

I thought the idea of the chips was to bring the price down by making it more available. Maybe i got it wrong, I thought ccp had realized the ship isn't worth a billion + which is why the chips were brought in.
If the drop rate is so low people have already started to give up looking -
Maybe like everything else with the Nestor, CCP just got it wrong..
Quote: Arthur Aihaken But here's my original suggestion for the Nestor: While this would be a very unique thing, I agree it is only a start. The Nestor needs to be able to do 1 thing well to get it out of peoples hangers and right now it just does not do that. If it is to be a true logistics battleship, give it the right bonuses to reflect this, armor only and 25k range is not going to win it fans. If it doesn't have fans, it doesn't get used. It needs a cloak, whether it be a normal cloak with Blops bonuses or a covert cloak, it needs a cloak. So it fits with other SOE ships, so it is able to be used.
Right now my Geddon is more versatile than a Nestor could be (at 1/10th the cost)

The Astero is a great scout/tackle, the Stratios excels in a combat/dual-propulsion role and the NestorGǪ excels at sitting in the hangar. The cold-hearted reality is that the Nestor isn't going to receive a Covert Ops cloak (or even Black Ops) bonus, a buff to its power grid or an improvement to speed and agility. It's highly unlikely it would be enhanced with a dual shield-armor logistics role, and it's definitely not going to get any additional laser bonuses.

I just came up with a brilliant idea for the Nestor, and it actually fits perfectly with the SoE lore. This is my take on doing "one thing well"GǪ The Nestor has its attributes modified as follows:
GÇó Signature Radius: 320m (from 465m) GÇó Inertia Modifier: 0.06x (from 0.18x)
The Nestor's role bonus is revised as follows (losing logistics capability and laser bonuses):
Role Bonus GÇó 10+ bonus to Relic and Data Analyzer virus strength GÇó 37.5% bonus to Core and Combat Scanner Probe strength GÇó Can fit SoE Cloaking Device and SoE Covert Scanner
This introduces two new SoE-exclusive modules, available only in the SoE LP store (for an as yet to be determined cost). Both are active, high-slot modules - and while both can be installed - they cannot be operated simultaneously (mutually exclusive):
GÇó SoE Covert Scanner (+100% scan resolution, -50% targeting range installed; stacking penalized). When active, this will automatically detect all wormholes and covert cynosural fields within normal or wormhole space and any cloaked ships within 20km. Cloaked ships do not appear on D-Scan and only appear on the Overview as a flashing "unknown" entry (unknown range, velocity, name and type). GÇó SoE Cloaking Device (-50% maximum velocity modifier, 10s reactivation delay; -0% scan resolution bonus installed). This operates as a standard cloaking device with one exception: it is undetectable by a SoE Covert Scanner.
So while it's not fast, it's extremely agile - which means it can take advantage of Hyperspacial and Polycarbon rigs to give it a very fast warp speed and align time. It also has a smaller signature radius, making it much harder to scan down when EECM fit. And it becomes a predator - effectively able to actively hunt down covert incursions and potential threats (cloaked or otherwise). I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |
