Fused Composite Plating

Apr 29, 2011 PaKettle link
Can the Fused Composite Plates be reduced from the current 140 cu's to 120 or less ?

These plates can only be moved one at a time by an XC or HM2 at thier current size. This excludes a lot of players from participating in the crafting and movement of these plates. It also makes moving the 1000+ plates needed rather tiresome.

At 120 a regular moth can move them which is well in reach of most players.

At 100 an XC can carry 2 plates with really bad handling...

At 80 a light moth can carry 1 plate or a HM2 can carry 2.

Don't you only need 60 of the Fused Composite Plating pieces?

Thats 60 for the trident itself.
Several of the sub assemblies also use these plates like the Reinforced Bulkheads which use 5 each.
Internal Bulkheads use 5 reinforced bulkheads so that is 25 plates for each internal bulkhead.
Internal bulkheads are used by the pylon, hanger and Hull assemblies along with 10 more for the trident itself.

A player who does not have the stats to get an XC has no business at all trying to obtain a capship. Now, being unable due to being hated/kos with TPG is more understandable, but as long as the Heavy Miner is sufficient to carry the largest components needed (I don't know if this is the case), I'd say that it is fair. One should consider consequences before pissing off somebody like TPG.

Get your levels up to get the ships required to transport. A XC isn't that damn hard to get.

Yes, changed to 120. I figure there are a lot of other items that still require an XC in the capship making process.

Thank you Incarnate - hopefully this will allow the newer players a chance to help.
