Im all for it, If you want an active Dread you still get a ton more Reps in Siege because your Resists, SO you get to chose Fast Attack Gank Dreads like before SC`s or huge Buffered ones, but they need to add a Cap Class "PLate" and "Shield Extender" IMO for it to work but, I like it alot.
But the Drawbacks need to be 3 Minute Siege Intervals. Another cool Idea I saw was a Bonus to Strength of ECM Drones, it would be like a poor mans ECM Burst, so they would stand half a chance of escaping. It might have alot of gaps in it but I liked the idea, unless they wanna make a ECM Burst for it.
I like the ECM Idea because it would be dual like having Tacklers vs Bonused ECM Drones, Tacklers could get them if they didnt have support fleet, but a lone tackler would be beaten by it.
We can all agree 10 mins is ridiculous, now days with Titan Bridging and JB`s so available you can get almost anywhere in 10 Mins so if the guy Goes Green thats a Huge risk, they need to make Dreads mini Titans IMO, like Glass Cannon Titans, So they need to have similiar Cooldown as Titan does rather than 10 mins.
It would encourage people to bring Dreads alot more, and Moms would still have the Jump anytime you have the cap advantage while still sporting on avg 2-3k more DPS, also with the new Resist Buff the Dread would have more like 5 Mil EHP in Siege Mode and what 2.5 mil without or somewhere in there, I like that its not so high to be the best bang for your buck and would actually make Triage carriers useful and not so suicidal anymore, even the Pantheon might come back :)
But the RR thing would make them way to OP`d IMO you could get a huge amount of Cap Reps on a ship that had a base resist of 60%, hell with 4 EANMS or Invulns that is way way to high, and we would start seeing Moms without 2 Nuets or 2 Smarty`s but rather 1 nuet 1 smarty and 2 Cap Reps+ Carriers, They would be only killable quickly by Titans and basically a group of Carriers or hell BS`s would have a very hard time.
I like them as Mini Titans where Carriers are mini SC`s, So I say glass cannons it is. 5 mil EHP with Good resist but standalone until they drop the resists some sort of ECM defense so it makes it competitive with a HIC pilot but slightly loses to 2 of them [Im thinking Lowsec], And with the Resists they can fit either buffer or Active reps. Good idea just no on RR
