I though playing in WH was about adapting to your environment. If you can't run tengus, then run something else. For all we know, stuff in WH might need to change anyway after the cap re-balance... |

Nerf them to be BC. No matter how you class them they need a hefty nerf in several areas, most noticeably in tank. If they stay as cruisers (and they will)then they need to lose the massive buffer coupled with t2 resists, lose some fitting room so you have to make hard choices like every other cruiser, lose a chunk of the capacitor capability so they cant be easily made to be cap stable and remove the ability to have both the cov ops cloak and nullification ability at the same time. The issues with their boosting thankfully is getting dealt with via the OGB removal.
And just whom do you think would bother to fly these ships if they're reduced to such an unuseful state??

I think elitatwo was being sarcastic, and saying that even in W-systems, the only way to give a strategic cruiser a hard time is with a system effect that is counter to their style. Given my personal experience with a class 5 system, I'm inclined to agree. We will never need strategic cruisers be overpowered to run sites that can be run with a small group of tech 1 ships in tech 2 fits.

No I don't think they need a nerf exactly just to be rearranged so their power isn't coming from high dps and BB tank.
Make it so their power comes from overheat and flexibility.
However nothing should be balance around wh effects or you are going to wind up with brown ships. Yeah a prot is going to be at a disadvantage in a pulsar against a tengu but that's the point of wh effects, to alter the choice you make in fleet comp and engaging

ah i thought u had, .. u definitely should though u make good points and are active in threads usually.
T3's need to be versatile not have T2 resists, OP dps and tank obsoleting T2 ships entirely.
ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 highslots for droneboats

my eft warrior skills allowed me to assemble Brutix Navy (hull tanked, 114k of EHP with combined plain DPS 762 points (neutrons+hammers II) no links no imps.

Well if they continue to stay in the Cruiser family then I wager their inevitable nerf would come by CCP within the next 6 months. When that nerf hits they're abilities would most likely be reduced to align somewhere between HACs and faction Cruisers which would mark the most dreadful nerf in the history of Eve rivaling the Capital jump fatigue changes.
Before these flagships of Eve are destroyed, I'd rather see their class change entirely to align with their tanking abilities. To be fair the changes I'd like to see to diminish their OP tags are:
*Subsystem penalty like the "cannot receive external remote assistance" on the defensive buffer/resist sub systems *Boosted sig radius up to BC class. *CPU fitting reduction removed from the CovOps subsytems *Can only fit the number of subsytems based on your Strategic Skill level (people are flying these ships with this skill at level 3 with near max benefits which isn't right.) |

Clearly not the people who campaign to keep every overpowered fotm ship.
A t3 nerf would be on par rage wise with the nano nerf or the dram nerf.

The answer you were looking for was "no one". Nobody would fly these useless ships if they were needed in the way you suggest.
Nerfing t3s into the ground would have a far reaching effect throughout eve. It would mostlikey cause people to quit the game all together, especially in wormhole space. The answer is a rebalance/redesign not a nerf because you can only nerd what is OP, which t3s are not.
The wishlist is pretty much complete...

Same exact arguments as used for the nano and dram nerfs. The ships will still get used in the same way drams, titans and ravens still get used after they were nerfed into line.

Same way CFC needed that tech moon income and the same way alliances that had the angel bpcs needed that income. People will still but t3s just like people still buy drams. WH income is no excuse to keep 4 ships blatantly overpowered.

Compared to the tech moon nerf and the tracking titan nerf yes, the income loss WH will lose when t3 cruisers are nerfed to cruiser level will be far smaller. People are not going to stop buying them, even with the nerfs I speak of they will still be powerful cruisers.

OK - here's the deal. WH income isn't even remotely based on T3 production. To harvest and then build T3 you need to live in c5 or c6 (because high end gas). I live and build T3 in a c5. I have no idea how many low end sites you would have to run to maintain enough salvage for a production line but it's a crazy large number.
Low end T3 production - you're already importing materials just to keep the line running. High end T3 production - The blue loot from the escallations you run to get enough salvage to keep a line running far out pace the value of the salvage AND any eventual production outputs that come from it.
WH income is based on blue loot. T3 production is a secondary income in high end wh and requires import of high end mats in the lower class wh.
The upcoming and changes to caps and the PVE nerfs requested by wh corps (they understand not what they ask for) will have a lot more to do with putting the final nails in the wh space coffin than bringing T3 cruiser tanks and T3 dessies back in line.
Basing a "wh space will become vacant" argument on lower T3 production is pure folly. Basing a "wh space will become vacant" argument on losing the current T3 overtanked metas is also folly. (The 'classic' T3 brawls of the past are few and far between - Rattler, Gilla, Ishtar, command ships, T3 dessies are what I'm currently seeing)
Baltec has been right for a long time. T3 cruiser tanks need wonked - for fun's sake. The few folks making isk on T3 production will survive just fine. |

This is a very bad habit you have baltec and will be the undoing of Eve if CCP ever develops such a habit. If your propose T3C nerf ever comes to fruition, it will mark the most dreadful nerf CCP has ever made to Eve in it's history. And the outrage would be far worst than your past data referencing predictions.

Edit: Technically it would be 4096 ships due to how the different combinations change the ship.

Now if the only real fear is that they'll have issues regarding mass because.. Well battle cruisers have more mass than cruisers/t3's. Merely bump up the mass of t3's and add a reduction bonus to the basic main t3 skill book (currently it adds heat reduction, add mass reduction to it. The rest of the stats can be based around the functionality of battle cruisers, and it would also buff up the battle cruiser rank). There are a lot that can be done with t3's, I just believe part of it can be handled by a mere rebrand. If you compare their mass WITH subsystems, it's actually about the same as other bc's like the hurricane. |
