FlashFires

Startac

The problem I ever saw with the ff is that they made the most artefakts useless, because ff are more important specialy for PvP then arties.
Maybe it is a good solution to change them to some kind of boost rockets. If someone use them they give all their power and burn out after some time. The modx slots are free then for cameras, arties and other stuff.
For that they have only to overwork the rocket slots and the modx slots.

I've always seen that as a good thing, though. Or maybe not always, but these days I do.

I kinda like the idea of combining ff and ab. Basically, just give the ab the ability to "charge" a ff sort of burst. 2 buttons... one for normal ab... hold the button, get normal steady usage, steady boost. The other button, the longer you charge, the more boost you get, the more fuel it takes. This gives ff's a little more depth, considering you can get custom boosts, depending on the situation. Done this way, it can just be a normal function of every ship, no modx needed. Now, if you wanted to throw in a modx that gives better "mileage" or stronger, more efficient boosts, that would be cool.

The problem isn't with Flashfires, it's with MODX. MODX items simply need to be better balanced.

For those of you who would get rid of FF's as equipment would you or could see having fuel as a commodity. I know in the past that battles have been waged over FF supply..if you take FFs out of the game and put fuel itself in as well as production platforms it might make for some intresting political situations.

Anyway I like FFs but just thought I would toss out the fuel idea!

FFs should be removed or nerfed. They are a crutch and an automatic choice in the ModX slot. The ModX should be the way a pilot customized her/his ship. The Flashfire implementation destroyed that.

Returning to refillable FFs is completely absurd (IMO).
