Scouts doesn't need to drain speed they can fit speed into theirs slots unless they want to become mech scouts.

And pointing health is 1 point for everyone when you get 0 Shield/Armor so the vampire skills will never go beyond 1 and armor doesn't count either as health...

.....do you know what Nosferatu's are?

So since Amarr are vampires in EVE, I have an idea for a nosferatu for DUST.

The module would be a nosferatu, but since we don't have capacitor, instead of draining energy, it would drain health and replenish your own. Basically you would lock onto an enemy and be able to drain the victims health to replenish your own, but akin to EVE, you will not be able to drain the victim's health lower than your own health.

The Amarr Scout could get a bonus to this perhaps 3% to drain speed.

No, I'm sorry but energy vamps steal energy, not shields or armor.

He obviously doesn't

Am trying to see the logic to the topic about putting a Nosferatu module.

Answer with a question sound as an excuse that you don't really know how to make it fit...

As short answer this is equal to a respec topic.

And shields are made of what exactly?

BOOM.

Don't call it a Nosferatu, but create an equipment item that drains the target's shields while replenishing the user's shield up to the point where both are equal. It could have a description which refers back to EVE and mentions that it's based on the same tech as the Nosferatu.

We have things that kill shields far more effectively than anti-rep tools, they're called guns and flux grenades.

And how many things do we have that help us rep our shields when they're still on regen delay?

Here, I'll list them for you:

-

Yep, that's all of them.

You seen my thread. I know you did

It's fixing something that isn't broken and doesn't need addressing. I'd rather see remote shield reppers or modified repair tools that are weighted towards shields but also rep small amounts of armor, rather than bastardized 'energy vampires'.

There are a couple ways to make it work but the best way is to introduce cap to Dust

Other E-War and how it could apply
Stasis Webs - pretty self explanatory though probably more useful as an AV assist
Tracking Disruptors - when activated, the target loses Aim Assist (can get into using scripts later)
Sensor Damps - reduces the scan precision of target. Would be great for sneaking up on an enemy or especially for vehicles. Easy to get behind tanks with RE's
Target Breakers - this would probably be more of a emp burst which cancels out everyones tacnet and scan precision within a given area

Target painter - this one would be tougher but would probably be used for vehicle versus vehicle on a new turret type.

There are others but not sure how they would play into Dust. Things like jammers, ECCM, scramblers etc

It's not fixing something that isn't broken. It's suggesting a way to bring something interesting and cool from EVE into a form where it would make sense and work in DUST.

If asking for new and interesting content is "fixing what isn't broken" then you're a hypocrite for wanting new repair tools or variants. We should also stop requesting webifiers, MTACs, etc. and nobody's allowed to say that adding capacitors to vehicles would be a good idea. This is all "fixing what isn't broken", according to you.

Stasis web maybe but could be more reworked.
-The tracking Disruptors there are bugs that can do that and better like disabling your weapon, besides ii choose to disable it i feel it more annoying.
-Sensor Damps There are bonus for that and the invisible cloak that can suit better for vampires.
-Target Painter there was a discuss for that just like the Sensor Damps and there was none confirmation about trying to make it happen.
Target Breakers think in the QQers it will be like the "Cloaks are OP".

If they want vampires mudules maybe a reflex one becuase a lot of them doesn't know how to dodge.

And i want my Stake HMG.

But it doesn't make sense, or work. I'm all for creating things that have a clearly defined and useful role - this idea doesn't. If I want someone dead I shoot them, If I want shields back I take cover, I don't try to stand there while someone is shooting me trying to open the equipment wheel to select a non-useful piece of equipment, lock the target while they're still shooting me just so I can drain their shields and maybe hope they have enough shield for the amount I'm stealing to keep me alive until they run out of bullets so I can switch back to an actual weapon and kill them.

If suits or vehicles had capacitor, capacitor warfare devices might be useful. But this piece of equipment(? is it supposed to be a weapon?) doesn't fill any real clearly defined useful role.

A shield repper fills a clear role - you use it to help out shield based teammates. A drop uplink fills a clear role - a new mobile deployable spawn point. A scanner fills a clear role - you use it to get advanced intel on suits you cannot see. A stasis webifier that slowed down enemy vehicles massively would fill a clear and useful role - a support tool that helps enable squadmates to apply damage to vehicles. This 'energy vampire' is a confused little device, it doesn't fill any clear role or (as described) any niche that really serves a purpose. An energy vampire that reduced repair rates and module active times on vehicles while it was used would be a useful piece of equipment.

When designing a prospective piece of equipment it should be very, very clear of purpose and fill a niche in a unique and purposeful way.
