It sounds like CSM is talking about more rorqual changes. I wish the players could pitch in to these discussions and not just the null sec leadership of the csm.
Rumor has it some on CSM feel the rorqual should require a fleet to defend it and should have its actual offensive capability nerfed. Of course we would expect that from null sec since they are the ones with the large fleets. Hopefully CCP will understand that everytime they hear "this ship should only be flown if it has a support fleet" that is code for "this ship should only be used by large null sec blocs like the one I'm in"
In any event I hope ccp discusses this with players at large other than the csm, before they simply announce changes.

In any event I hope ccp discusses this with players at large other than the csm, before they simply announce changes. .... but it should need a fleet to defend itself from any committed threat and only have enough to deter randoms.... the entire point of the panic button was so that it could live long enough for a fleet to show. titans need a fleet supers need a fleet dreads need a fleet carriers need a fleet and these are dedicated combat ships why do you thing the rorqual should not need a fleet?
The ships you mention do not need a fleet. For example a carrier does not need a fleet. But whether a ship in fact needs a fleet is different than whether a ship should need a fleet. The point I am making remains the same. If CCP designs ships to "need a fleet" then they are basically saying only large null sec alliances can use this ship. If that is what they want to do that is fine, but I think most of their playerbase will be less than pleased.

Its certainly possible that rorquals may have an issue where they point something while in panic mode etc.
I agree with you that they should do more dps. I mean they can be tanked indefinitely by a single subcap ship.
They are not allowed in high sec so they are a capital ship intended to only go into dangerous space. The fact that their dps is so anemic is odd.

People keep baldly claiming what the Rorqis supposed to be. But that is begging the question.
We are talking about a ahip that when fit out costs about 4xs as much as a fit carrier. And yes cost is a balancing factor.
If you fit a carrier for solo ( like you would if you were not planning on calling in a fleet). Then I would take the carrier over 2 bs and 2 logi. But a rorq would have trouble with a single sub cap.
Bottom line is with that sort isk on the line the only people using it will be those who can out escalate everyone around. If that is the intended purpose I would prefer they just scrap the ship altogether.
