Ynglaur posted:Why would they make such a module specific to Hictors? Why not make them fittable by all Medium and larger ships, and let emergent gameplay take over? they're looking to maintain the status quo as closely as possible because of the time constraints involved, the patch goes out in october, which is pretty fuckin' close to the line rather than have to waste a bunch of time hemming and hawing about a more complicated balance change, they can narrow the scope as much as possible and do the least net change while maintaining the status quo, then maybe go back later and change it (yeah yeah i know)

As someone who lives in a wormhole right now with 0% chance of a k space connection, it's become a QoL issue. In your "home" hole rolling Higgs rigged BSes isn't a big deal, but when you're 5 jumps through a chain which is 6 jumps with a ship with a max MWD speed of 100m/s, it gets pretty loving ridiculous. Stack that on top of all the scanning, bookmarking, etc you need to do along with life and mass calcs.

I have enough in liquid isk and assets to just replace it, but it sounds to me like supercarriers are doing the work of dreadnoughts now. I kind of want to save it simply because it's a lucky ship that survived every hot drop ever on it. It even survived a mistaken jump to a fully-armed BoB deathstar.

If its 30 jumps usually its a better idea to just find a wormhole and try your luck. Usually you can cut 20+ jumps out of the trip, if you get lucky.

It was pretty neat coming back to Eve once and finding a wormhole from where my stuff was to where it needed to be within a day or two. Several hundreds of jumps, in an Iteron Mk. V, saved. It's probably even easier now with that wormhole mapping tool.
