With all this re-balancing I think its time for this to be looked at. No pirate faction BS gets bonuses to missiles. The Rattlesnake is a drone boat.. just before anyone thinks otherwise. So unless you can\want to fly a maruder there isn't much to look forward to. Oh PLEASE!!! CCP Fozzie Can I haz a Navy moa....... |

The Rattlesnake wasn't always a drone boat - bit of an abomination, doesn't neccesarily have to stay that way. Though, I suppose you could justify it's current existence on the basis pirate hulls are kind of supposed to be basterdized abominations of empire hulls...

Might be a way to make Blood ships a bit more interesting. |

OR introduce alternate Pirate warships that fit into the same scheme as the current stock, but have that twist that gives them a unique role. Where the science gets done |

With Navy BCs coming out, there is always hope that we will finally see pirate BCs too.
As for a missile focused pirate group, I am totally on board with that.
Not sure if bloods would be a good choice, those neuts are pretty powerful and I think the lasers cap draw is the only thing keeping them in check.
I certainly wouldn't mind a new pirate organization based on Caldari/Amarr with a similar focus to Khanid, armour and missiles. There are two pirate groups based on Minmatar/Gallente after all. Maybe someone linked with the Jove? MODULAR DRONES

I dont know if your aware of this but look at Sansha Ships, they look like something that has been inspired by jove tech.
I also want to see Khanid and Rhoden ships follow their lore: - Khanid: They are supposed to be by lore Missile and Shield, they are currently Missile Shield - Rhoden: they are supposed to be beefy armour ships with missiles, but are currently not a beefy tank, and are either blaster or split weapon system. |

Maybe someone linked with the Jove? I dont know if your aware of this but look at Sansha Ships, they look like something that has been inspired by jove tech. I am indeed aware. I was thinking more of the other side of that coin. Rather than humans using Jove based tech, Jove splitting off and merging with humans in an effort to beat the disease and using lower tech because they have found a link between their tech and the disease.
Just an idea. MODULAR DRONES

I would like to see some ships added to the current pirate factions with different mixed racial bonuses than the current ones. For example: Guristas that focus on missiles and speed instead of drones and tank, angels ships that get a tank bonus and optimal bonus (and maybe use rails), blood raider ships that get armor taking and laser RoF bonuses, etc. |

I think they should keep at least one of the two traits. For example: Guristas would focus on either Missiles and Tank or Drones and Speed.
I think you meant Serpentis when you refered to Angels maybe using Rails. MODULAR DRONES

With Special Ability: Cruise missiles propulsion systems are replaced with micro-jump/warp-drives. And some bonus to explosion radius/velocity (or hell make it have 4 rig slots to compensate) That would actually make it useful also in incursions. |

Though, I suppose you could justify it's current existence on the basis pirate hulls are kind of supposed to be basterdized abominations of empire hulls... Old rattlesnake had 6 launchers and 4 turret slots, 8/6/6 layout, 5% to hybrid turret damage per level, 5% to cruise/torp rate of fire per level and 50% to missile velocity of cruise/torps. It was indeed a split-weapon abomination.
Current rattlesnake is better with a 5% shield resist and 10% drone damage/durability per level. Unfortunately it still retains it's now useless 50% missile velocity bonus as it only has 4 launcher slots now and no damage/rof bonus. As a result the rattler remains the cheapest pirate faction ship as it is rarely sought after due to it's low DPS.
Ideally, the Rattlesnake deserves at least one extra missile slot and the 50% missile velocity bonus changed to 25% rate of fire for cruise missiles and torpedoes. OP would get his missile-bonused pirate battleship and everyone in EVE would get a useful Rattlesnake.
