Rebalance T3s, sure. Don't make them irrelevant and useless. The problem with a jack-of-all-trades philosophy is that instead of several ships that can do a whole bunch of stuff okay, people will generally just bring several ships that individually do each part a lot better. That's why we have fleet doctrines, isn't it? -áMy (mostly boring) Youtube channel. |

Still stands that they are being balanced with the other cruisers and not T3. |

Still stands that they are being balanced with the other cruisers and not T3. It doesn't seem that they're being rebalanced with regards to anything except what they were before. -áMy (mostly boring) Youtube channel. |

Cruisers are my favourite ship class so I'm quite happy with the proposed changes though I feel Sacrilege still needs more attention. The bigger drone bay is nice but I think it's still going to be underwhelming. Oh god. |

I'm quite excited over the diemost changes although that sheild boost bonus for the vaga has me scratching my head. |

They're all underwhelming. The only ships that come out okay with these changes is the Zealot, and that's because it was fine before, and the Cerberus, because they're buffing it quite a bit. -áMy (mostly boring) Youtube channel. |

Aren't you one of those asking for T3 frigates? You already had it, was named Dramiel and look how game breaking it was before the well deserved nerf bat.
Limiting modules size to ships size is the most logical way to go. No more triple 1600 proteus or legion, no more double large shield extenders Tengus, 2.5-3km/s T3's with oversized ABs and so on, then once people start fitting dedicated size mods on their ships there will be less to balance across the board. Capital pilots not being able to fit 100mn MWD's to make their ship warp faster? -I'm all for it
You want balance? -then balance the right things like oversize modules, the ship it self is rather balanced when fit it with same size modules.
But: no more XL-ASB sleipnirs, Vagabonds, Cyclones, Lokis or medium ASB frigates etc and oversize prop modules, pretty sure this is what you people don't want balanced and those are exactly why some ships get out of whack when you add links and implants.
If you really want to clean the can of worms do it right and stop trolling with "creative" oversize modules fits, there's nothing creative with that except for trolls and alts. *removed inappropriate ASCII art signature* - CCP Eterne |

Deimos changes are underwhelming, all hacs need another rig slot, deimos needs another med -1high +1low, scrap that crap mwd cap bonus for tracking or 1point disruption immunity (all hacs) so they have a chance to get in range before their mwd is shut down and web to death
Now Deimos with rails getting removed the previous 15% tracking buff? - lol, everyone knows how bad those already track.

That was a question, just say'in
Also: agree on Sacrilege underwhelming buff, needs bonus to light/ham/HM +1low slot and get rid of some mass+win some speed, right now is just a bait brick. *removed inappropriate ASCII art signature* - CCP Eterne |

you can fit 6 launchers on a tengu or 5 and a 100mn ab or 5 and an xl booster
to fit those oversized modules, you also have to sacrifice a rig slot and a low slot for the extra pg and/or cpu choices are good, choices make the game more interesting
with a 100mn ab running a tengu aligns like a dead cow, 1400m/s is good for speed tanking but bad for when you need to gtfo |

T3s shouldn't be rebalanced because they're skill intensive?
Just for skills to fly the hull (assuming you'd have support/fitting skills and weapon systems etc - and many of these would apply to all) To fly a T3 with skills at IV = 70 days (27m ISK) To fly a Marauder with skills at IV = 125 days (70m ISK) To fly a Black Ops with skills at IV = 130 days (113m ISK) To fly Command Ships with skills at IV = 113 days (68m ISK) To fly HACs at IV = 69 days (33m ISK)
So, in 3 months for an amount of ISK you can get of 1 level 4 mission, you can be flying a ship that is untouchable by anything else. Its faster, does greater DPS and tanks like a beast. Oh and you can't target it, find it or point it (depending on config) In the same time, you couldn't even sit in the hull of other T2 ships. They compare quite well with HACs, but a T3 is superior in performance to a (current) HAC. We know HACs are struggling. Logistics and Recons train similar times too, but they're too specialised to compare to T3s.
Sure, it's not all bad and plenty of T3s get asploded all the time, but to argue that T3s are worthy of being as OP as they are because they cost a lot of time and ISK, is demonstrably false.
I don't think T3s should be nerfed into the ground, far from it. I think they should be adjusted to focus more on their flexibility (swap subsystems in space etc) rather than having 1 or 2 highly optimised builds that simply trounces other stuff. They should have similar DPS, speed and tank abilities to other cruisers with their strength coming from how they can be refitted very flexibly and on the fly. Not that they can have frigate speed, battleship tank and battlecruiser DPS. |

If training 70 days for a T3 gives you T1 cruiser dps, battlecruiser tank, T2 cruiser mobility and the special snowflake ability to swap subs on the flight:
There's no point having one or flying them for other purpose than expensive nullified cloaky hauler for boosters plex and pirate implants. At this point their building cost is better to be a lot cheaper and by cheaper I mean around 70M at best, even then I'd take my crane over that T3 all the time, even a bomber aligns faster and to get caught you need to seriously mess up, and also cost about 25x less the pop without pimp.

CCP please come and end the argument nad just give us an idea of what you want to do? Are all T3s getting nerfed? Or just a couple, you gonna nerf the **** out of them or just slightly? Goddamnit we need details before we can have a reasonable discussion at the moment all these threads are kinda ppointless. |

Non sequitur. The AT is about point efficiency and the suitability of a ship for that particular situation. Your argument would make sense if all PvP on TQ had time, number and point limits and restrictions on fittings, implants and tactics. Twitter: @EVEAndski

The hyperbole is strong in many of you. May the hyperbole be with you!!
And loving the people who take a phrase and make it into something which isn't even remotely close to truth but present it as absolute, undeniable fact.
Yep, loving GD threads!!
(being flexible means you have to be able to change fits in space? Really?? That is the only way to be flexible?? And that is what CCP intended? Then why haven't they already done it??) |
