INTERDICTORS
Looking for some more dialogue on this topic. Besides group prestige, should interdictors earn anything? A set amount for different ship classes snared, per minute, per failed jump, etc? A bonus from each kill or damage amount within the field?
GROUPS
Similarly looking for dialogue on how group prestige could potentially be split. I'm in favor of group sizes limited to, oh, ten? tops, with prestige granted fairly equally to all members within a certain range of prestige earner. That is, idling 10,000gu from the fight won't net you anything.

Interdictors should deffinatley earn prestige for the work they do. I'm not sure how you might go about implementing it, but an Interdictors job is not an easy one.

x amount of prestige for every UNIQUE ship that enters the dictor field (larger ships = more prestige)
a certain amount of prestige (say, 1/2 that of the prestige gained for a ship entering your dictor field) gained every minute for a ship in your field
x amount of prestige for a ship being destroyed in your field.
it should be comparable to repair prestige and/or building prestige gain.

i second that, but with increased prestige for ships you bring out of jump
as for groups, i think that the prestige should be averaged before distributed to members, so if you do have somebody idle they greatly diminish pres gain, I also think group limit should be 5 or 6 to prevent power leveling.

Now with this group thing, will it just be players in the area, or like players that get invited/create their own group. cause that would be really cool to see. anyway, i do think tht it should be distrabuted with a fall of system, like the person that got the kill gets the most, people that inflicted damage on the target gets alot(not as much as one getting the kill) and support ship/ships just in group get some, but still not as much as the others. Thus the most active members of the group would get the most pres from what they are doing, while still letting other members of the groupcollect from the entire groups activties.

Every old thing isnt bad to implement on a new thing. So dont give any special , time , ship jump fail, dictored ship points to dictors.
This could be so easy to exploit.
Use old prestige system. Let dictor group up with its team and earn shared prestige for their "team" work.

i don't think the group idea is smart. for one big reason.
if a high lvl player teams up with a bunch of low lvl players those players would rank way to fast. for example if i get a batle station i group up with a bunch of midshipman/ensign i start killing mir dread dread i promote those players 3/4 times in 15 min or less.
so i think that if you do it players get group press based on current rank and prestation. otherwise this group thing will be the biggest exploit seen in darkspace.

well i gues u could share the prestige on what type ship u have...ie if one in a dread, and the other one in a crusier(dictor), then the dread gets like 60-70% of the pres earned.

Grouping is coming back so no need for interdictor prestige..
Combat groups are going to include dictors again, everyone wanting to join the combat group must join the prestige sharing group. If your the dictor life will be easy, just keep the enemy in your field and let your allies pown him and you get prestige from them by the grouping..
