Since removing RP for doing damage it make long battles for nothing when someone takes all your work with the last hit. Now its snail pace to research and gets boring. Just a waste of time really. Now you reward loitering in time for rp which doesn’t really encourage participation. Its now more boring and not so rewarding esp in high tier where its expensive and you get very little for the cost and time of having slow reload. If your going to do this you should have some kind of severe damage reward for vessels. Otherwise its pretty bogus to engage in a long battle with slow ships because someone can just take all the rp for you work into it. Just not very good or thought out well. The last thing you need is making ships more boring and less rewarding. Also seems like less lion reward for damage and all this makes it very lackluster and takes away an aspect of why some tolerate the ship mode in the first place.
