Really the only thing I can foresee that could be added is a shield upgrade. Basically like the armor, but it an either or sort of thing. But then that would make it far less effective since the shield batteries got nerfed. :/

How about an item that takes up a weapon slot, and increases either shield or power regen...

Now *that* is interesting. However, I would make it only available on high-end gun slots, and NOT turrets, otherwise the traders would whore them.
Also, there is the problem of bomber ships. I would certainly mount shield-guns or power-guns on my bomber. It would make me a Nova Master. Maybe.

make them all add the same boost, that way ppl will have to choose to use multiple boosts or guns. balanced.

What about, and wait for it this is an exciting idea, if it aint broke dont try to fix it. I hear a lot of people complain about the power drain. I like it, it keeps people from spamming with their finger permanently depressed on the trigger. Besides if you find the right loadout, it's not that bad.

AC Merc is right. This aspect of the game works fine.

Amen. It ain't broke.
Nerf the nerfs. Buff the buffs.

' Wrote:Well, this is my idea:
Just like you can equip different shields with different recharge rates and modify your ship's stats with the Armor Upgrade Modules, would it be possible with power as well?
So, capacity upgrades, charge rate upgrades... That'd be fun. And it would make the game even more customisable, so with tons of money you could get your dream guns.
Of course, all the base power stats would have to be lowered, so the difference isn't that much... And the price should be around twice the Armor Upgrade ones.
What do you think?
NOOOOO! THIS MUST NEVER BE DONE!!!!!!!
Heres why; People xfer cap power cores from Cap ships to fighters, and then they have infinate power!!!! There is no real way to regulate who has what core.
Good idea, but ruined cause theres lots o people that would be cheap and mount cap cores.

Heh, now I can see this is way too tricky to balance =_=
*dumps the idea in a fishtank*
