I vote against this idea. Nanohives are a support tool and should mainly be used by logistics players. Reducing fitting requirements is working against this. A less effective hive just means you have to wait a little longer until you're fully healed up and restocked after a fire fight, which is a very small price to pay, too small imo. Nano hives, especially the armor repping ones, should either be used by logi players, or force an assault/scout player to sacrifice a significant part of his offensive abilities.

I play logistics in a type 2 scout suit, and there are times when this would be useful. Not all logistics players need the heavy logistics suit with a beer dispenser and microwave. ;) If it's not balanced, then I'm up for making it balanced as far as stats, but if I want to train up for a prototype nanohive, and use it on a type 2 scout suit, lower fitting requirements at a lower effect, and higher isk price should be an option. Otherwise, I'll stay with my basic nanohive that doesn't require more training, is cheap, and doesn't eat up my cpu/power.

So between the two of you, I take it we're suggesting the same thing they do in EVE.

Make Nanohives cheaper on PG/CPU requirements FOR LOGI SUITS ONLY.

And when they introduce cloaking and other stealth modules, gives Scouts a bonus towards those modules. Armour mods should have lower fitting requirements on Heavy suits (or give a reduced movement penalty).

Every suit should have a bonus to equipping certain gear.

It's pretty evident I'm requesting something different than this :) Get your own thread. Blink

I wasn't saying that you were suggesting it on your own, just that taking aspects from what BOTH of you were saying could easily turn into that system - and that it would be a good way to make things work.
