Like it or not decay is one of the prime things that keeps the crafter professions going. I mean, how many architects are out there these days since buildings and other parts don't decay. So I would petition that decay be put back into PvP and deepspace, but that resource requirements for shipwright goods be lowered so that the prices will be lowered as well. If ship decay is lowered or removed entirely the shipwright profession will become the munitions profession and that's it.

Despite lack of PvP decay on armor and weapons, armorsmiths and weaponsmiths are the richest on the server.
So, no, leave it like it is.

No, armor and weapons do decay, through use and being shot at. Armor decays by being hit and weapons decay by being used. I don't think the same applies to ships. Things don't decay unless you have to repair them.

Yes, through use they do. I have to repair every time I use my overload commands. The only time decay doesn't apply in space is if you PvP or don't go into battle.
Frankly, if you're not using overload commands, you're not unlocking the full potential of your setup.

No decay in PvP. There will be enough business for the SW from PvE. Not to mention a constant revenue stream from ordinance sales.

Amen there. I can't get enough Mark IV's. SW's don't seem to be making them. Of course, the supply of decent High Grade Poly Radio on our server is nil....
