For a long time i have heard people in Black ops fleets always saying "man if we had a bubbler", alas no such ship exists currently in the covert/black ops line up. So why not make a new subsystem for the Tech III's that make them dedicated bubbler's, but fully dedicated and limited. Such as the subsystem itself allows for the fitting one one, or two, with a lot of fitting sacrificed, on the tech III's. The bubble time could be limited as well, (IE 20 seconds), as well as a longer cycle time, (IE 30-40 seconds0, making it necessary to have 2 tech III's on the field , to keep a constant bubble up. The limits also could be movement restrictions more stringent than the restrictions on the HICS, and like most fits, the subsystem removes, depending on the tech III ship itself, either mids or lows, meaning less tank, less mobility. Most will say this will make the BLOPS overpowered, but let's be honest, super's, and slowcat's dominate, tech III's along with cruiser gangs now rule, and tier 3's are the op ships most prefer, others will say they do not want to put their expensive tech III's on the field with so much less tank,....... remember the cost of just the hull of BLOPS BS, so that arguement would be mute..............BLOPS with a dedicated tech III interdictor subsystem, would be a first, and would be another way to change the ever changing battlefields across eve, more fun and would, along with the bridge range increase, would make the BLOPS fleet a choice of many........Just an idea, a suggestion that might make sense to many in eve. |

It's an interesting idea, but i worry that it would further encourage people to bait / bridge rather than roam.
I think for it to work, it would have to gimp tank so much that it would not be worth risk of the ships loss or the sp loss.
Blops need to have limits in what they can do. they are meant to be for gorilla warfare, and for that, the abilities a recon gives are ideal. |

T3 ships are supposed to be generalists ships, this would directly interfere with the role of a HIC.

Simply put.... I don't think T3 cruisers should inherit Interdiction roles too.... Frankly, there are several major limitations to BO Bridging that I think help distinguish it and make it wonderful:
1.) No effective bubblers...
2.) No effective Logistics... (you can bring t3 logi or RR BO BS setups, but their obnoxiously short rep range significantly undermines their role).
This makes it quite practical to engage a BO drop... as you can counter with logi's, they are easy to bubble, and many of the ships coming through are often fragile (and/or expensive!).
If you were to have a BOBridge capable bubbler, I'd want it to be a dedicated t2 ship.... not some jack-of-all-trades t3 cruiser! |

Cloaky, bubbling Proteus is pretty much the last thing this game needs.
No matter how much we'd want it :D
