We agree with those of you who are advocating a "trial period" for capitals in incursions. In the Citadel expansion we will be adjusting gate restrictions to allow all capital ships into Incursion sites and we will be watching closely to see how this new access is used. Since we know that it takes a while for new tactics to develop, we have set a target for the end of 2016 to do a full review of how capitals in incursions are doing, including a call for more player feedback at that time.
Of course if something exploitable comes up between now and then we'll always be on hand to adjust things sooner.
Thanks!
If Gates are adjusted for all Capital ships to enter Incursions, does that include Titans and other Supercarriers?
I am just wondering, since the Revenant, while being a Supercapital itself, would not last long if player fleets were to field a Supercarrier or a Titan at that HQ. It makes me wonder if this will lead to adjustments in the spawn of Sansha Incursion NPCs, or even an introduction of a new class of Sansha ships to counter the new Capital ship presence in Incursions. |

Thanks! Make the trial "period" open ended and make it clear from the start that this will be kept under review and may be changed at any time in the future to head off the inevitable nerd rage that will inevitably come when this inevitably leads to incusrions being farmed by nulsec scum lords for mountains of isk.
Aren't there groups in High-Sec that already farm the Incursions?
I ran with a fleet for one Incursion in Null-Sec, and they had the science of Incursion-running down to a T. Everything was like clock-work, with little to no trouble.
So, too late on "nullsec scum lords" farming for ISK with Incursions. |

Which may be coming true, given a future update involves Serpentis Capitals being introduced. Capitals...Of all classes. |

Actually, I think the rarity of Capital spawns is between Commanders and Officers. Though I haven't checked the rarity of those spawns in asteroid belts myself.
The upcoming Serpentis ships, on the other hand, are part of an event that will make them the first wave of Pirate Capitals available to players.
I think it might be the supercarrier or Titan bp that are as rare as the rev. |
