I would love to see the laser bonus dropped in preference for logistics bonuses.
I get nice DPS out of my Gila, so I figure sacrificing something from the Gila to get a covert cloak and ability to use black ops portals and a bonus to logistics? I would give up one sentry drone. So 100Mbps drone bandwidth plus energy and armour range/cap/CPU bonus would be awesome.
Encourage multi-player cooperation by shifting away from resist bonus to remote tank bonus!
I am keen to see what you do with the SOE battleship to prevent it out-competing the Sin ;)

As opposed to lasers and combat drones? Logistics is a pacifist profession in comparison to pew pew laser boats. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

They are exploring ships, that are able to defend themselve. The fits are pretty sound, just a could things need to be tweaked and good to go. And a damn BS one too haha!
I like the 2 lasers with 100% to damage, that will keep it lasers. But really I would have rather seem hybrids with shields, they just look like shield boats, too bad :^ (
Sure, dropping the logistics ideas these boats look nice: you have to make compromises to fit them which is IMHO something many ships are missing.

This is just better than the Gila in every way. You may be correct ... but pirate ships are before balance pass. So this Gila may be diffrent from new Gila. Confirming new Gila will be different and hopefully very cool.
So GǪ drone + ECM, dropping the missile bonus? Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

The nearest comparison right now is the Gila. The SOE cruiser has more DPS than a Gila, and can fit a cloak. I agree with your sentiment. A compromise could be the removal of rig slots, reduction of calibration to prevent the use of sentry drone rigs, and the removal of weapon hardpoints.
Replacing 25Mbps of drone control with a logistics bonus would be really nice, IMHO. Why does a new ship have to have DPS as its primary characteristic?

So what hull do we have to surrender to get the Astero and Stratios? Imicus and Vexor? Crucifier and Arbitrator?
Not that I'm planning on stockpiling these hulls at all. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |
