So things have died down on the forums a bit from all that other controversy (looking at you SOMER), I wanted to bring up something for discussion to see where this stands exactly. I've always been a fan of the hyperion everyone knows that, but what strikes me odd is that people seem to really avoid this class of ship, so I was wondering if I could get some community feedback on this subject.
1.How often would you say you use a battleship outside of PVE? a.What role do you use it as b.Do you find it as effective as the other classes of ships c.If you dont use a battleship, why dont you?
2.How do you feel about the current state of battleships? a.Do you think they are fine as is or need some sort of work done b.If you think they need work. what mechanic would you alter?
3.With the upcoming changes, battleships will be even slower and more cumbersome, how do you think this will effect your choice of using or not using a battleship?
4.Are there specific battleships you think need to be reworked?
5.Whens the last time you flew a battleship outside of PVE? a.Was it solo, gang, or in a fleet? b.Did you get blown up? c.Did you feel that it was the right ship for the job?
6.What do you think of the prices of battleships vs other ships? a.Is the cost to gain ratio worth it? b.Do you hesitate to fly it in pvp because of it?
7.Lastly, what do you fear most in a battleship, what on your overview makes you wish you had chosen a different ship the second you see it?

Do answers relating to alliance fleet doctrines count
You can get like thousands of the same answer in that case. There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

I think the biggest issue with Solo battleships is that as soon as you are reported every man and their dog comes out of the wood work to kill you..
And while fun its too easy to get whelped when compared to Frig/BC solo |

And because of this you avoid solo battleship pvp? What do you think would change that? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfSDNPFCPfY |

Think of it sorta like Real Life. In the reals, battleship type vessels would get destroyed, if caught alone during combat. A battleship in a fleet, though, is a major force multiplier. The risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built and we want to keep that (infact, this is much more representative of the consensus opinion within CCP). |

But more specifically which fleet. Are we talking like that major battle just happened? Or would you fly one in a roam fleet as well? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfSDNPFCPfY |

I fly battleships in PvE simply because they are harder to gank. Outside the "safety" of hisec I only use battleships to bridge covops around.
I can't imagine trying to roam lowsec in a BS without a few dozen of my closest friends. Which I don't have yet. Even then, a Gila or the new SOE cruiser will provide similar DPS in a significantly more mobile platform. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

Do you think that needs to be changed? Or do you feel thats fine the way it is and battleships should be the niche they are currently, situational.

I only undock my Battleships when I got a small fleet after me. Or when I'm close to them and I noticed a target in a battleship. They dont get alot of kills so if my BS's can get one it's always nice.
Depending on the fleet setup I would undock the best BS for that setup... weather it be a Vindi/Bhaal/ArmorMAC.
Aside from that I don't use them for much anything else. PVE is a foreign concept for me.

What would it take to get you to fly them more often? What about them makes you avoid them? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfSDNPFCPfY |

Did I say I avoid using them? They are not practical to hunt with unless you know what your facing when you head out to them? I like using them but they are there for very specific jobs and engagements.
I prefer flying my T3/T2 cruisers since they are quick, can lock fast, have Battleship Tanks and better with decent DPS.
I use my ships based on their abilities. Not because it is a certain hull.

1. POS bashes and gatecamps. That's about it, really.
2. Not enough output given their situational vulnerability. Not much wrong with their tank.
3. It won't. An Armageddon camps a gate just as effectively as before.
4. The ones that use their highslots for damage. But then, you could argue that's a problem with large guns, not battleship hulls themselves.
5. POS bash. Got my ass kicked, too. Unlike most of my major lossmails, this one is actually on this character. That was a pretty good fight, getting the Vindi made up for our entire losses lol. The guy was majorly PO'ed.
6. Their cost is fine.
Really, the only T1 battleships of mine that sees serious use outside of ship spinning because they're pretty (I LOVE the Typhoon model) are my Armageddon for camping, my Navy Apocalypse for missioning (lately anyway, I love that hull).
Most of the rest of the time in a PvP situation, there is a better tool for the job. I don't begrudge that, that's just how it is. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

Seriously? What is wrong with you? I gather English is not your 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th language.
If that was the case I would not have battleships at all. I said they are there for very specific engagements and jobs. But I would not use a battleship to hunt a Cruiser since it is just not practical. But if multiple cruisers came after me then I would jump into a Vindi for example to web them one by one to quickly pop them.

I actually use RLMLs myself on mine on occasion. Most of it's dps is not coming from the launchers anyway, so the extra utility to hunt down frigates thus far as been definitely worth it.
The HRML doesn't impress me in the same way. The Geddon already slaughters cruisers wholesale. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

*Edit* Would really appreciate if a dev would pop in just to state how they feel about the current status of battleships. I'll take a "Working as intended" or "Thinking about it" :3
1. Never not Mega a. Everything b. yes c. N/A
2. Healthy a. I have few issues b. I only need a way to fit a jump drive and a cov ops in order to take part n cap fleets and black ops
3. Frigate fleets will be problematic but I think I can still take part in cruiser fleets.
4. Teircide has yet to be finished.
5. Never not Mega a. I do all 3 b. On average my Mega last 4 to 6 months. c. Always
6. I remember 60 mil Mega. a. It is what it is b. Not at all
7. Nothing. |

I've always been a fan of the hyperion everyone knows that, but what strikes me odd is that people seem to really avoid this class of ship, so I was wondering if I could get some community feedback on this subject.
1.How often would you say you use a battleship outside of PVE? a.What role do you use it as b.Do you find it as effective as the other classes of ships c.If you dont use a battleship, why dont you?
2.How do you feel about the current state of battleships? a.Do you think they are fine as is or need some sort of work done b.If you think they need work. what mechanic would you alter?
3.With the upcoming changes, battleships will be even slower and more cumbersome, how do you think this will effect your choice of using or not using a battleship?
4.Are there specific battleships you think need to be reworked?
5.Whens the last time you flew a battleship outside of PVE? a.Was it solo, gang, or in a fleet? b.Did you get blown up? c.Did you feel that it was the right ship for the job?
6.What do you think of the prices of battleships vs other ships? a.Is the cost to gain ratio worth it? b.Do you hesitate to fly it in pvp because of it?
7.Lastly, what do you fear most in a battleship, what on your overview makes you wish you had chosen a different ship the second you see it?
*Edit* Would really appreciate if a dev would pop in just to state how they feel about the current status of battleships. I'll take a "Working as intended" or "Thinking about it" :3 1. Never not Mega a. Everything b. yes c. N/A 2. Healthy a. I have few issues b. I only need a way to fit a jump drive and a cov ops in order to take part n cap fleets and black ops 3. Frigate fleets will be problematic but I think I can still take part in cruiser fleets. 4. Teircide has yet to be finished. 5. Never not Mega a. I do all 3 b. On average my Mega last 4 to 6 months. Longest serving was Delve mega that served for 10 months. c. Always 6. I remember 60 mil Mega. a. It is what it is b. Not at all 7. Nothing.
Love the confidence! Wish there were more pilots who saw battleships like you do! Thankyou for your input

From the thread, you can see that people love their AFK station camping Dominix fleets, and their Megathrons. Battleships are far too expensive for me to use in PvP given the types of PvP I usually see (on this character, hisec wardecs from misguided fools desperately trying to teach me to PvP).
I can't comment on whether or how to change BS for PvP since I don't use them and don't see situations where it would make sense for me to use them. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

What if someone gave you and your friends some free BS's to fly around it? Would you be willing to go get them blown up? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfSDNPFCPfY |
