DUST Search - What if we had a Nanohive that cancelled shield recharge delays?

I would disagree that Caldari is built for siege warfare.

If you look at Eve you will see that Caldari ships are built for sustaining long battles at range with a mix of speed and a lot of advanced technologies. In reality this is far more conducive to guerilla warfare.

When you bring that comparison down to Dust you see that the same basic principles were applied in the form of speed, shield regen, and mid to long range weaponry. When you add the fact that their equipment is based around quickly establishing a temporary base and keeping everyone alive and fighting as long as possible this points even more to the fact that they are built to hit and run.

If anyone is built for siege warfare it is the Amarr with their high armor tank.

As far as the nanohive idea sorry but I have to vote no. This feels like a piece of equipment that no one would care to fit except for the guys that just use it as a crutch to be able to stack shield extenders in to next week.

I do think shields need to gain something in the line of equipment as everything is pretty centered around armor which kind of dumbs down who logis are going to stick around and what slayers are going to use for surviving the longest.

I will like to apologise ahead of time for the transgressions of this post; **** eve, this is dust, the farther we get, the better the game get's.... Also you just want to keep caldari being easy free kills for your (ME TIME) pleasure, if I have to keep running armor plates on a cal suit just to have an amarr running with his dog tail between his legs (a cat is fine too) then there is something wrong with the game, secondly this game shouldnt devolve into cookie cutter rock paper scissor's (unless there's ladies involved), the idea of hives having the abilities to rep shields (and not armor) has been thought of, and would be FAR more useful than just being ammo and armor, like a rep tool, the hives should rep shield's for a certain number continuously at the cost of 1 nanite (given the fact that we're gonna be taking so many shots anyhow it's only fair to have little nanite cost).
