Corporation Manufactured E.B.K's

Post by Geistware »

Presently you need a Genesis plot and infrastructure to build a corporate EBK. Why not allow the corporation to make their own within the manufacturing facility. Instead of making the corporate one like the genesis one, make the corporate one success or degree of repair based on the pilots repair skill. As the use EBK's some learning happens and their repair skill increases.

WOW, so after two weeks and 39 views, no one has any thoughts on the matter?

Agree with expanding corp manufacturing to do this. I already have run out of stuff to build in my corp manu facility.
My manufacturing specialist pilot already spends more time on other missions than on building stuff.

Disagree with the pilot repair skill requirement, the XP per repair would need to be tremendously increased to make this feasible.
I think repair skill is highly biased to combat pilots, it seems combat missions use two or more times the EBKS than my
hauler/miner/explorer missions do.

Plus now you have two different paths to making the same item, which is wasteful.
Better to have a NEW type of EBK (perhaps a shield+HP combo?) that only the corp can build.

I'd not spend valuables resources on corporate EBK - Ship is repaired for cr, why should I waste clicks and res?

Other options for corporate crafting would be nice, but not EBKs
