Siege bloodlust

[E X O D I T E]

Ok so if you siege a base with 8 ships, thats 3 defenders per attacker needed to pop an attacker?

only have to do it 8 times and your base is now free and clear for 3 days, BCs and below don't put out appreciable DPS against a base

this also assumes the worst case scenario of only killing 1 bs for your 3

No wonder that they are not suggesting for defenders combat and trade ships to be equally long PvP dead in return.

Boy oh boy, defenders just filtering in would be even more discouraged to filter in.

We saw that in the sieges I was defending a base in, people would log in one at a time and would get piled in on. In a siege, everyone besieging is assumed to already be there, so they would always have a numerical advantage. I have never defended a pob and outnumbered the other guys, it was always me and maybe two randoms at most vs a massive fleet. To be further penalized past the god-awful gameplay experience the previous sentence implied would just be plain discouraging.

This also assumes the attacking players just don't have a stable of capships that they can just rotate in. You finally kill one, so that ship is gone for three days, but an hour later, they're on a ship with that exact same loadout but with a different name, so all you really got out of it was a bluemessage.

tl;dr 10 guys alt tab afk shooting can go not really play the game somewhere else, defenders actually do activity for as long as it lasts.

EDIT: Permanently deleting a ship, but then refunding it anyway? That makes all of no sense. Also, again, I don't want to be further penalized for having the bad luck to be piled on by six guys on comms with no intention of giving me a duel or anything remotely resembling a fair fight.
