Hey everyone. We announced this new rig at EVE Vegas but I haven’t made an official feedback thread yet, so here it is.
Short version is: we’re adding a rig that slows you down quite a lot, doubles your mass and improves your agility a bit. It will also decrease warp speed as a drawback that can be reduced through the Astronautics Rigging skill.
We expect that this will have a few somewhat niche uses right away for miners and residents of wormholes (especially lower-class holes) and that players can come up with more creative ways to use it over time.
The rig will exist in all size variations, T1 only for now. It will have similar build costs to other T1 astronautics rigs. It will fall within the Astronautics Rigging section and use that skill.
It will be limited to one fitted per ship.
Stats are:
25 Calibration
+100% Mass
-55% Inertia
-75% Max Velocity
Drawback of -10% Warp Speed (reduced by the Astronautics Rigging skill).
