I'm a little put off by the limitations of current shuttles, and I don't think it would be difficult to make a shuttle that is slightly more decent at ferrying players and/or small goods around. As it stands, I find myself often better off shopping in a slower frigate because of all the advantages it gives such as cargo space and equipment slots. I end up making my frigate about as fast as a shuttle, so what's the point of a shuttle? Now if it would actually have a slot or two of its own, and a tiny bit more cargo space, I'd be happy. It's make a great ship for shopping trips when I'm just picking up a handful of goods, or getting skill books/blueprints. I could put an afterburner and an inertia stabilizer to make it go even faster.
Requirements to pilot: none High slots: none Medium slots: 1 Low slots: 1 Cargo capacity: 25m3 slight increase in base HPs and mass, and slight decrease in speed Signature radius: 30m
Should be a few to several times the cost of a standard shuttle, nothing much for a regular player. A ship like that can come in handy even away from home, just buy one off the local market wherever you are. Sound reasonable or no?

I guess the idea of the shuttle is to have small fast cheap ship with no options and no skills needed. As you train up and get more isk you just shift to frigates.

Edited by: Hentes Zsemle on 05/10/2010 09:27:52 Having a T2 shuttle is a good idea, however... Shuttle is indeed for cheap fast simple transportation, but if you want slots and cargo space, buy a frigate. IMO it would be good to have a T2 shuttle for ppl who use shuttles frequently, with its own, max rank1 skill. It also would have to cost less than the cheapest t1 frigate. I'd be very much against a variant with lower speed, even a shuttle is not that fast nowadays...

Yours is a reasonable ship.
But I originally thought you meant T2 Shuttle. Which I would envision as requiring something @ 4+ (Nav4? SC4? Nav5? ) with maybe 5m^3 extra and *faster* not slower.
