In EVE a Siege Module is used on Dreadnaughts and makes the Dreadnaught unable to get support or repairs from other ships, makes it completely stationary, and ramps up its ability to tank damage, and its damage rate by 500% I believe, making it the highest DPS ship in the game. The trade off is it take strontium, a relatively expensive fuel to run this process, and you can't 'leave' siege mode at will, once it starts you have to go all the way through with the assault before you can move again.
So basically if they introduced this concept, a Sagaris would become a stationary super tank capable of one shotting ANYTHING at all that came into range, it would be MUCH MUCH harder to kill, but everyone and their mother would soon know where it was at, and thus the whole team could make a coordinated effort to take it out, and it couldn't run or do anything to prevent it, or they could just avoid it knowing its in siege mode...
Frankly this would be easy to counter in this game... Just park a dropship above it out of its turret arc, and rain hell down on it, it can't run to cover so you'll probably break its tank before it exits siege mode...
As for the Sagaris being OP... Any game where both sides have them, its automatically not OP, in fact it automatically becomes a huge tactical blunder and a massive loss of wealth and a drain on the players using them. Its only OP if the opposing side doesn't have the counter =), and there are plenty of counters... This isn't adapt or die, its something else, but so many threads have been posted on this, its tiring... The Sagaris will be balanced without being nerfed upon price, SP changes, and additions. |

Like the idea =D, but I doubt it webifiers are normally not designed to "stop" but rather to slow down, albeit relatively significantly =). |
