1) With the cost of small reps, I dont think its reasonable to expect a t2 fit - deadspace reps will be the norm.
What is the cost of small faction reps?
Now I am sure you are going to give me a small number and say look how cheap that is but no one right now is using them. The Mackinaw increased massively in price while the Hulk decreased after the changes. As soon as these reps become useful there price will sky rocket.
They are not much more common then small complex reps and they cost 10-20mil for even cheap ones. Give an item a use and the price rises. |

Racial templates is nice and all but you need to take into account the slow down from plates and armor rigs. As it is the shields once can field a nice local tank thanks to ASB's. We need to do one better, we need to tweak the armor rigs so that things that aren't strapping steel onto your hull (trimarks) aren't slowing your ship down. So you're pumping some juice through your reps. Give it a sig bloom. But slowing down Gallente ships further with the rigs they need to do anything at all is silly. All that to say, speeding up the Navitas is a band-aid. CCP needs to revist changing the penalty on a few select rigs to not cripple a racial fleet style just for the sake of having a pattern in rigs.
I think they need to do one better then that and scrap the penalties all together.
Astronautics that nerf Armor, Electronics that nerf shield. That just shoehorns rigs by tank type. Armor penalties make most Armor Cruisers slower then Shield Canes. No wonder most people fit the Thorax, Hurricane, Harbinger, Brutix, Myrmidon and Rupture with Shield Tanks more often then not. Sig Rad Penalties don't amount to much realistically for Battlecruisers and Battleships in most fights but hurt smaller ships.
Honestly I think plate mass and extender sig is enough without these ships taking a second hit. Removing Rig Penalties would expand what types of ships use rigs and help ships like Frigates, Destroyers, Cruisers and Armor Battleships that suffer the most from them.

Last time you were proposing a -20% reduction of penalties per level for each rigging skill, right?
Yes. Either that or re-balancing Calibration Cost and having the skill lower it with 4-5 being primarily for T2 Rigs. I personally prefer the 20% solution. |

I think you missed part of his point. You don't have to pay for the account. If it can be trained in 30 days, just use a free 51 day account, and don't sub it at the end. It will cost nothing. And since this is eve, people will do it because they can.
You can't duel box a trial account so you might as well fly it on your main. |

51 day account isn't a trial account, and it is free. Send buddy invite to self (21 day trial account), buy 1 plex to upgrade account (now 51 day full privilege account) and receive 1 plex as a "thank you" for bringing a "friend" to eve.
That is the problem not entry level logistics.

It costs nothing as long as you have the isk for the inital plex. And if you can't afford the first plex i recommend you go afk some fw minor plexes for a few hours (which can be done with a noob merlin with less than 8 hrs training...).
And of course this.
Bad game mechanics shouldn't stand in the way of fun new ships like these. |

The times become much harder to keep up with when they are posted on page 40.
No dummy there is peace in the Middle East now. How could you have not read it, it was posted right here at the bottom of the fall style section. |
