How about drone generators that are built from the dropped/built drones + complicated parts, t3 etc. that have reduced stats, but are generated?
So an armada charge generator would take maybe 10 charge drones, 1mil cyanure, and 100 bacta. Something with a hefty build cost, but the 1 use bp creates a generator that generates Compact Charge Drones that are smaller and maybe 75% the power of dropped or built charge drones. _________________ uhmari wrote: When i look at uhmari, I can see clearly the problems in it |

Because drones are automated defense platforms with their own shield and enegybanks and a variety of weapons. ONE engineer can deploy a multidude of drones for differing auras, effects and weapons. Unliked ONE beserker, for example, which can only fire one type of weapon at a time. Time Warp _________________ andezrhode2a wrote: Timmeh is the exception to every rule.

Engineers have the potential to lose ~15b in a single death. FCs have the potential to lose 500m in a single death, and other classes have the potential to lose 125m. All other classes have a large fee for the initial character creation (FCs 4x the cost of others, but it's still just a 1-time fee). Engineers need to pay large amounts of money constantly, often due to lag or bad luck. Also, they're really no more powerful than any other class, they just fill a different niche. This should defo be added.

Kinda sucks when you loose your drones because you DC while killing a Hive solo.

Also sucks when you have Lion snipers grab Zeus aggro and instead of hiding on debris or dieing honorably they hide on your drones and invite you to lose bilions on their mistake. =P

Stabberz, you're an idiot.

There is a real problem with what to do with all the drones already out there that cost people time and money, but i'm sure they could be transformed into generators/cashmoney or something I can't think of a good response to that now _________________ |

I still maintain that this is a bad idea. Time Warp _________________ andezrhode2a wrote: Timmeh is the exception to every rule. Battlecruiser23 wrote: /Timmeh! I mean /signed! sabre198 wrote: 1.
