RSL Flux Station:
Findable Ranks 400+
Visible ranks 250-9999
Drop spaces: 60
Primary stats: hull and defence
Shield regeneration: The station regenerates it's shields at the same rate as bases do.
Abilities (about a 1/10 chance of any of them at all happening):
Power surge: Deals damage to attacking ship equal to 25% of combined hull and shield
Flux Warp: For 5 minutes, all attacking ships have a 25% chance of missing completely, but the station's attack is reduced by 25%

Drops:
Planet flux
Old idea:Trans-Entrophy flux harmoniser - Upgrades any Trans-Entrophy Drive mk X to a Hyperflux Trans-Entrophy Drive mk X, giving +25%(?) defence to that module.
Better idea: Flux-field drive: Size 20, 50 defence, +3% cloak, limit 4/ship
RSL data cache - Choice: 5 CT lab attempts (automatic) or fill your research production.
RSL Experimental co-ordinates - Provides the location of a "Manic" world, which the RSL have been performing experiments on. All the wildlife have been mutated beyond recognition. You have to "conquer" the planet from the NPCs. Always VL+ MR research+. Passive +20% research (from the very unique lifeforms). This world would look crazy - bright colours, but with remnants from past planet appearances.
Flux driving station - Size 10, Automatically fluxes the planet it's placed on once a week (VERY RARE drop - perhaps only top 5 or 10 hitters even have a chance to get it.

What if you don't have Trans-Entropy's?
I like the Manic Worlds though

I thought about that - perhaps have it upgrading ANY thruster would be better? Or just a new module with a good defence and maybe scan stat?

I like that - there aren't any cloak % boosters. I think the other boost should be defence though. I'll change that now.

Ignoring the exact stats of the thruster/module/cloak reward, what about it as a concept? ie massive elite thing that's very difficult to bring down and doesn't really have any bad drops.

i like the concept very much... but i wouldnt make it available to be found until maybe rank 600 or 700. the shares could remain the same, 250-9999, but there are so many 250s, if they found this, and they were the onlyone who could see it, they would be like, well f***. at least if you start introducing them at a semi-high rank, youre guarenteed that at least a few other players could lock in...

as for the rewards, i like it! as for the shield regen, very nice touch... it would be like a base, but not as threatening... my only question is how do you determine a lock if it regains health? or would it be raided the same as bases, but people who do more damage get to raid more times? as in

top 10- 5 raids
11-20- 4 raids
21-30- 3 raids
31-40- 2 raids
41-50- 1 raid

I meant that when shared, those people could see it. Rank 400-600 would be a good point to introduce it.
It's just an NPC, but every X minutes it regains Y shield. Timer starts once it's scanned by anyone. Perhaps 2-3 days to kill it?

Rewards would be standard drops - but say top 20 get 3 drops, next 20 get 2 drops, last 10 get 1 drop. It's impossible to actually "lock" it. So yes, rank based like a base.

Just worked out a solution - 60 drop slots, 60 legion members - no-one left out.
There could be a Extremely Rare planet structure drop too (ie less than 5/60) - flux driving station - Size 10, Automatically fluxes the planet it's placed on once a week.

That is very powerful, how's about make it the no. 1 spot prize, to encourage people to attack more

a slight tweak to it maybe instead of a hard 60 and hard stats make the stats matched off the legion average rank and the number of free slots= the number of members in the legion.
