Large Shield Extender?
UI Improvement Collective
My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Like the guy above me posted, the large extender is the "BS" size. The issue is that because of the PG on these modules, most people assume the large is meant to fit on cruisers (as you can easily fit 2x on most cruisers), the medium is meant for frigs and dessies (as you can easily fit 2x most dessies and some frigs), and that small variants are worthless.
If CCP changed the PG requirements that so fitting a small became the best choice due to PG reasons on a frig, and followed that pattern so that a medium was the best choice on a cruiser. Then, you might have people open to using the large as the BS version.

But then every ship balanced around using the current "wrong" ones would effectively be nerfed. |

This would not be a bad thing. Eve's balance is heavily skewed towards smaller ship hulls.
CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Small shield extenders are actually not worthless, they're viable to fit on frigates when you don't have enough room to fit a medium, they don't offer much tank but they work on certain fits, like specific kiting fits.
Don't like my post.

But then you have to make the same change to plates if you really think small ship need to be brought down. Only doing it for shield would be stupid. |

Somehow i like the idea and it makes sense... As long as raw EHP stay untouched on small ships, why not ?! |

The large Shield extender, while supposedly meant for battleships, simply doesn't give enough shields to warrant use. I'm just suggesting an extra large version with higher power grid and cpu costs and greater signature and shield increase. Of course the module would have less hp/pg ratio and a larger sig/hp ratio to discourage people from placing them on sub battleship hulls. |
