Originally by: Damia The biggest complaint I see coming out of this is from owners of CURRENTLY rigged frigates and cruisers, seeing as they essentially paid for a large size rig for their small or medium ship.
The solution to this is similar to what they did when snake implants got nerfed... pop them out as a one time only freebie deal. So if you have a Crow rigged with 2x Polycarbons, logging in after the patch, your Crow would be unrigged with 2x Large Polycarbon rigs in its cargo hold.
That way small/medium ship owners can't say they were ripped off.
Why would they feel ripped off? Serious question. If those were rigs of the type they would've bought anyways and the smaller (cheaper) rigs now incoming are no less or more effective ... where's the loss? Saying the money spent now is a loss doesn't make sense because the patch isn't here now and we didn't even know about this stuff until yesterday.
I have three CCCs in my mission Hurricane I used for L3s. Come patchtime, I'm not going to feel suddenly jipped because I spent 45mil or something on rigs I wanted then. If anything, I'll be happy that the cost of replacing or re-purposing it to something that will need different rigs will be cheaper.

It's only getting a lot cheaper for frigs and cruisers and battlecruisers for rigging though isn't it?
Large rigs (current rigs) will actually go UP in price due to the salvage being divided up a lot more for the other classes of ship.
It's a hard kick in the nuts for the already rare and lacking reasons for flying a Battleship I had, particularly for Caldari. The difficulty in keeping up with a fleet, the vulnerability if you get d/c'd, etc... etc...
Non Gallente Battleships can be near useless in lowsec without good support.

Rigs are a percentage boost. They will affect smaller ships less dramatically than larger ships.
20% on 200 shields is a small number.
20% on 20,000 shields is much bigger and consequential.

Also, it doesn't matter what rigs you put on the Omen, it'd still be a terrible cruiser.

Guys, it's really quite simple: for BS's rigging stays absolutely 100% the same. Rigging just gets cheaper for frigates and cruisers so that people will actually put rigs on these cheaper ships.
The only problem I have is that it requires people to buy a whole new set of BPO's so at the beginning at least, small and medium rigs will be expensive (maybe even more expensive than large ones).
Overall looking pretty positive though - makes it much cheaper to rig my Cormorant for salvaging.

4. Transport of Rigged Ships
This is something that can be a pain for many of you. There are ways around it such as using courier missions if the ship is small enough with a freighter or an Orca's ship maintenance bay for smaller ships. We will be looking into numerous ways to help alleviate the issue of transporting rigged ships.
THANK GOD. I don't see why I must destroy rigs in order to transport, my intention is not to remove rigs (i.e. with the intention of rigging something else into the slots) but to pack the ship down for transport. Allowing rigged ships to be placed in a "compression container" or something that can then be loaded onto a Charon would be a most excellent fix IMO.

Cookie cutter fits be gone!!!! Welcome the day of ACR's on frigates! Hey look a celestis, easy gank or super tanked bait ship? This is probably the most interesting change to the game that ccp has done in a looooooong time. Different sized rigs expands ship fitting combination's x1000 . I can't recall being so excited about a patch. Ship weakness's are because of slot layouts and inherent bonus's, with cheap rigs you can completely fit towards one goal with your slots and patch say resistance or dps hole with your rigs.
The future looks bright and interesting indeed.
Oh sorry i got excited and kind of ignored the op....what did he say again?

I have a question...what about BC's? Will they fit large rigs or small rigs? since they are in between cruiser and battleship. My sig was fail, but now it isn't.

Originally by: Trebor DeCaldar Did you see the new dev blog???
They are FUBAR'ing the rigs!!! Rather than having the options of lite rigs on your Battleship instead of the currect heavy rigs... all sizes are going to have the same effect and be split to ship type they fit to.
THIS SUCKS!!! It will kill the rig market!
Hey CCP... since you are making all size have the same effect, can my Small Rail Gun do the same damage as the Large Rail Gun???
im suprised it took someone more than a day to make a 'This is going to kill the xxx market CCP you idiotz!!!!' thread
i like it, it will not justify rigging smaller ships like frigs and cruisers, which means better pew pew and more isk lost, think about it, if people are now going to regularally be rigging frigates and cruisers, true, it may hurt the LARGE rig market, but will also make a new market for medium and small rigs, and since those shisp are generally cheaper and more desirable to fly, and chances are now they will be rigged, the influx of Rig losses is going to increase the market

This is a good change. It will make certain rigs dip and others rise slightly in price, but in the end it will make rigging smaller ships less stupid, which I think is great.

This just in, CCP fixes all lag related issues! The players of Eve loudly, in one voice, shout "WTF" then commence complaining about how other players not having lag will adversely effect their own enjoyment of Eve!

Seeing how (unless there is a drastic change in the rig BPO requirements): - the wastage will be something like 2-3 units, - the time to research a medium BPO to perfect about 10 hours and a small at most 3 hours, - the cost of a BPO less than 125K isk.
I don't see why the new rigs will cost much even day one.
Full set of rigs BPO less than 20 millions; time to research all of them to perfection in a tower less than 1700 hours (that is, if the small BPO ever need to be researched, if they use 1/25 of the stuff they will require less than 5 units of salvage and have no wastage).

Originally by: 5pinDizzy Meh, I thought they were going to make it so smaller rigs were slightly less effective than the larger rigs for more variety.
Variety in EVE.... NO!!! We want a bunch of cookie cutter setups!!!
Wait... what?
As it is now only people with billions of isk to spare ever fit rigs to frigates or cruisers. How is making it possible to affordably fit T1 rigs to small ships going to decrease variety? The uber-rich still have the option of T2 rigging their faction frigs, but now the average player can afford to actually fit rigs to small ships.

This wont miss things up.
They just need to take the bs mods off crus ships now like 1600 plate, as that is a battle ship mod. then things will be in line.

Medium rigs since they're still cruiser class vessels. It even says so in the blog. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Originally by: Tippia ąwhy would you want to trimark your AF?
The whole ship class was just made (marginally) useful by rather drastically reducing their weight. So why on earth would you want to weigh them down to their previous level of slowness and lack of agilityłeven if it's cheap to do so?
Don't ever try to mention that to my CEO, he trimarks interceptors, he's nuts.
Edit: used to, trimarks AFs though, uses armour rigs on ceptors either way.
Second Edit: stop whining you ******s, jesus christ this feature will be awesome if done right.

Originally by: Sir Muffoon At 3million for a set of trimarks for AFs, you might as welll give all of them the 50~% increase on armour and be done with it.
Luckily AFs are underpowered, so this change might actually make them useful at something. Although probably not. Either way you dont have to worry about AFs suddenly being uber... _

This is a really needed boost to Drakes (already best profit from rigs, just got cheaper).
Otherwise, well I can rig AF, I care, rigging covops is cheaper, not excited... I guess it is ceptor boost and ofc stealth bomber boost because those ships were not popular . T1 cruisers? Get a BC really, rigging is still gonna cost more than ship.
So boost the good ships, nerf battleships some (an ongoing process), nothing much changes for the underdogs. I am excited.
(Oh want something positive from me? Restrict the small rigs to T1 frigs and medium rigs to T2 frigs and T1 cruisers. But this thought took all of half a minute, can't expect CCP to devote so much time to design when they can scrw market and ballance some.)

Um, seems like a great change and exactly what I expected them to do. People use smaller ships more anyway, so the smaller rigs should sell well enough. The only place I can see it taking a hit is where battlecruisers are concerned, since people always rigged those and (I assume) they'll now use cruiser-sized rigs.
But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started. |

There are 3 sizes of rigs, small ones will go on frigates, medium ones will go on Cruisers, BCs and industrials and large ones will go on BS
