It's an active module therefore if should provide ACTIVE bonus not passive ones. This is just common sense and may also make some of those compensation skills actually worth training for.
So,please explain exactly how is it worth training 4 skills to level 5 now that previously gave a bonus and are now worthless to most of us that trained them in the first place?
Because they give a bonus to passive modules!
Really I shouldn't need to explain this to carebears.....go figure it out. stop wasting my oxygen in making me think for you! That is the Way, the Tao.

They are not.
We are now stuck with 4 skills trained to lvl 5 for something we will most likely never even use now.

Well, well, well... The real problem now is not that GÇ£the active hardeners no longer have the passive resist element, and that change are going live to TQ without any official CCP note about it (aka stealth nerf)GÇ¥ but about the usefulness or not of the compensation skills.
For some play base this change do not meaning nothing, but for other player base this change all they play style. So, the real question is if the compensation skills should be reimbursed or not, because it-¦s a set of lvl 5 skills that become obsolete.
I think that the fair is that should be a one time question at login asking if you want to be reimbursed or not, and this solve all problem. The one who are affected by the usefulness of the skill are reimbursed, and the one who want to keep it are ok either.
And, of course, better communication between CCP and the player base are always welcome (no more stealth nerfs). Remember, I did not said no more changes, but no more unannounced changes, please.

The Armour Hardeners work the same way too, the amount of passive resistence is linked to your Armour compensation skills, so if they are removing it from the shield modules they better do the same to the armour ones! |

They are.
It doesn't matter as much.
After the changes my tengu will un-dock with 0 em resist.
With armor ships they have a passive omni-resist items already. These are rather popular. As such folks don't feel cheated. |

Please emphasize more on the trade-offs as much as possible. Still a lot of iwin and fotm stuff around. Breaking the ice is alwas good. But one user is right, please announce those little changes too. Stealth nerfs or unnoticed changes really hurt. Using tablet, typoes are common and I'm not going to fix them all. |

Why?
Increased shield put more energy out therefore easier to target/shoot at etc. Duh! That is the Way, the Tao.

LOL DILLIGAF around carebears wishing that they are going to have to adapt to a change in skill bonus application.
It is one of the fundamental differences in shield v armour tanking. Shield has ACTIVE omni resists and PASSIVE regen. Armour has PASSIVE onmi resists and ACTIVE regen.
Once again you are asking to use a PASSIVE focussed skill to enhance an ACTIVE module. This has been mentioned before that making modules more focused is a goal so that fitting a ship is one of compromise and benefit matching. The PASSIVE component to ACTIVE modules goes against that principle.
Get over it and adapt. Or just up and quit I DGAF That is the Way, the Tao.

First off Tao, you keep useing the word 'carebear' like you are better than someone, or like you know what you are saying. The fact is, most carebears fit RAT SPECIFIC resists, and they are not the pilots that are hurt by this. The pilots that are hurt are generally going to be pure PvP fits. Especially pilots who try and shield fit their Armor ships. This stealth nerf hurts PvP pilots the most.
Second Tao, You are a frigate pilot in faction wars. You probably are not even qualified to post in big boy threads, based on your history of fights, fits, and experience.
Lastly Tao, You do look like you give a ****, you just don't look like you know what your talking about. |

AxeMan2 has hit the nail on the head in terms of the impact, as did those people who quite rightly pointed out that shields need a similar module now to the Energised Adaptive Nano Membrane II. It really screws over the use of Thorax's and Talos's and weakens severely any shield ship that uses weapons that require cap, it destroyes the benefit of training up compensation skills to 5 which is what I had done for this passive bonus, it massively buffs neuting ships and they have just effectively destoyed a whole lot of usable fittings.
I am expecting a lage number of pimped Incursions ships to get destroyed after this is implemented...
Furthermore the impact on the Chimera is immense, I cannot even bring myself to use it, because I cannot fit it to fight with it, it is impossible without a similar module to the EAMN, as of now I am changing my whole training plan to train up an Archon.
This is exactly the type of action that fits with the attitude that a long term and now ex-Eve player had of CCP, I had not really seen it before, but now I do.
I designed and ran a PBEM game and I would never have implemented a change like that as a minor change, wow! |

The issues around the coding and whatnot just brought it to their attention. And once there they realised what a stoooopid idea it was to have PASSIVE bonus on an ACTIVE module.
You carebear whiney fucks just need to HTFU and get over yourselves!
I think the tears are not coming from the carebears this time my friend.......
Heres my take on this, may as well since all the other yokels have piped up.
Coming from a carebear and pvp point.
As a carebear misison / plex runner it does not affect me (or I reckon 99.9% of other carebears in the slightest) as I do the following
- Active tank for misison / plex not containing neuts
- Passive tank for mission / plex containing neuts
As a pvp role.
Adapt to the new situation and pick one of the following.
- ACTIVE
- PASSIVE
I WANT BOTH

Those are great skills to get for other purpose than the passive 15% without stacking you get from an off line invuln. LVL5 compensation skills+OGB+off line invulns: something is wrong here, it's either active or passive, not both.
Quote:For some play base this change do not meaning nothing, but for other player base this change all they play style. So, the real question is if the compensation skills should be reimbursed or not, because it-¦s a set of lvl 5 skills that become obsolete.
Compensation skills are useful and there's no reason to reimburse those skills. Will this change some specific fits?-hope so. It's good for the game and keep smarter players entertained finding new fits and tactics.
Quote:I think that the fair is that should be a one time question at login asking if you want to be reimbursed or not, and this solve all problem. The one who are affected by the usefulness of the skill are reimbursed, and the one who want to keep it are ok either.
Compensation skills are useful, point blank.

They're getting better each year at communicating with players but not perfect in every situation, while I agree this could have been communicated differently, there's not that much to fuss about. Far too much panic for nothing. *removed inappropriate ASCII art signature* - CCP Eterne |

Axe and Drac
I am predominently a small ship pilot yes. And I have already mentioned in a lot of my post that I don't comment on the effects in relation to big ships. As for my ability to post in 'Big boy' threads?! Get over yourself. 'Big boys' often get owned by us little men And I have been playing since day 1 of eve and been active in every size of fighting/conflict in game. Just because this character is only a couple of years old don't assume you now my entire background in eve.
However I did assume that most of the people complainng about this were 'carebears'. I geenrally don't use the term as an insult and I appologise for the few times it has come across as one. I have good personal friends who are by their own definition 'carebears'. It is a playstyle just as pirate or explorer is.
Now i see that it is the pvp'ers whineing about this. To that I say then I probably has just as much if not more of an opinion to post on the subject than if it was the carebears.
To the pvp'ers complaining I say HTFU. My eirlier comments on the PASSIVE v ACTIVE nature of the skills/bonus' are even more valid in pvp. You fit to do a job. One fit is not supposed to do it all. GET OVER IT AND ADAPT.
Stop whining and giving pvp'ers a bad name! That is the Way, the Tao.
Balance is everything.

these mods dont get boni if active nor passive now . as i interprete this 2 phrases. when are these skills now becoming relevant. this description is totally confusing

Well it looks like they are just going to do it, such is life, but at least they are telling people which is a plus point, but the description is clear because the compensation skills only affected the passive bonus of active hardeners. Anyway its a massive buff to neuting ships, so thats going to be fun, thankfully I have all those skills so tally ho.
Tao, you seem to want to engage with me on this, in terms of Axe's comment, my backing of his comment was in regards to which ships it had the biggest impact on, though I do still think the Talos is viable, his comments aimed at your style of play or your comments on this thread have no interest for me whatsoever. Your own comments have done the talking for you, I don't need to add anything to them, rather like when I let off steam on this in terms of the signature radius penalty on shields, perhaps shields will get some skill along the lines of armour honeycombing, or perhaps not which is the point I was trying to make. No matter what your comments are, the fact is that without a passive module covering all resists for shields, the neuting of shield ships is going to be a lot more effective. That CCP decided to do this knowing full well that the passive bonus was originally added to nerf neuting shows that they are likely to want this to stop people using shields on armour ships and use the new armour modules. The knock on effects of this are profound in some areas, while a Chimera is not really a very effective PvP carrier, it can be fitted for PvP for when you get caught, however the fit now has to be based on passive modules and nerf's its tank by around 8% on the best fit I could come out with, however its acceptable. Like always I will sort out my new tactics around the current situation, however I am sad to not be able to use a couple of ships in their full glory now that this is being applied tomorrow. Have fun... |

Only ships affected by this tweak are capital ships, and these have plenty of slots to fit resist amplifiers, which are better when neuted dry than hardeners (way better), and can refit in space when they have a buddy (and if alone and neuted, they are screwed anyway).
These cries are only for the sake of crying IMO. |

This just in! Shield ships further encouraged to throw on an EM rig. Some inside sources claim this is what most people have already been doing anyway since forever ago. Angry players call the change, quote, "a nerf". More breaking news at 11! |
