Will the flux strike hit stuff under surfaces? Because let's not pretend that major positions of uplink spam aren't under a roof.

How well this work in FW? Different times for higher tier strikes maybe?

Lastly, I love this don't get me wrong, but Caldari and Amarr logis will hate you. They get a bonus to consumable equipment and now it's easier to destroy? Maybe new bonuses, but what if instead deployable equipment regenerated over time? Use something like the active scanner timer. You drop an uplink, then you wait for the red ring to go around the circle before you can drop another? Two positives here: 1) Caldari and Amarr logis now will never run out of their specialized equipment and 2) You can't go to a supply depot and spam all the equipment on your fits because after each drop you have to wait to drop another. Of course keep the same max active limit and higher tiers/specific variants can have a shorter cooldown.

How about they deploy far apart, under roofs or inside buildings?

Well then, guess that supply depot room in the Gallente research facility is still going to be annoying.

Guess that's why I'm carrying flux nades.

Until we get that "one per equipment category" setting I want

Until we get that "one per equipment category" setting I want So if I want to carry a Wirykomi Triage Hive but also something for ammo I won't be able to? I'm just trying to help A better solution in my opinion would be have the equipment self destruct if you switch suits to one that doesn't have that particular equipment equipped or respawn in a suit that doesn't have that particular equipment equipped.

I'm just trying to help That's what Allotek hives are for :P Specialize in either ammo, reps, or take the middle route that isn't as effective as either. But why should I not be allowed both for maximum efficiency if I'm willing to use two slots? Amarr are the good guys Join "PIE Ground Control" for secure Amarr FW syncing and orbital support

What part of New Edan would make the Amarr focus on their deployable equipment being used to detect others? Wouldn't it be better suited for Caldari? Or are you just saying "No creation of new assets, so we'll steal the image and use it for this purpose." Because then it would fit as a new equipment in line with the team-shared active scanners as a Gallente tool. ----- other comments forthcoming Similarly as uplinks are used to transport slaves, spy uplinks are used to make sure no slave escapes.
