Lets forget for a moment the Darwin issue of forgetting to upgrade/renew you medical clone and losing SP.

If free medical clones were provided to all players would this encourage more people to participate in PVP?

Players with over 100 mil SP are sometimes averted to PVP because of the cost of replacement clones at that level. Even lower level players can be drained having to replace countless clones. Without the worry of losing 10x or more the cost of the T1 firgate you are flying I think more players would be more willing to give it a try. At least on a more casual level you could JC into a implantless clone, go on a lo/null sec adventure for the afternoon and not have to worry about losing 75+ mil ISK and potential SP loss. It may just be the determining factor for alot of unsure players who wanted to get their feet wet but were afraid to.

Even most serious PVPers have alts to help augment their income to pay for their fun and also allow them access to hisec. Would it not also be beneficial to them to have one less thing to worry about? Let them concentrate on what they do best, killing.


Just wondering other opinions on this.

Is this the norm for PVPers? Use a cheap low SP alt.

Are they any PVPers who use their 100 mil + SP main to do the killing? Or when you get to that point you have others do the killing for you.

Where?

These are null sec characteristic elements.
It's a free choice to play in there or not. One shouldn't if dislike it or cannot deal with the costs.

Higher chance to loose a pod is pretty much the only added risk in null in respect of low sec space. Making it cheaper is a further step toward trivialization.

And is balanced balanced with the fact that is far more peacefull. If you check the overall stats you see as low sec region/systems are more dangerous (for ships/pods kill):

What I can't figure out is if you didn't actually understand my point or if you're deliberately being obtuse.

Yeah, you missed the point.
See, null has these things called bubbles. Granted WH space has them too but due to being significantly less populated and having no static entrances and exits they're kind of used less often.

I didn't realize that stating facts were hating on low and wormhole space.
Are you denying that your clones are at less of a risk?
