The devs seem to have posponed the nerf but seems they are just going to do it at a diffrent date. Here is what i dont like about the carrier nerf; carriers won't be placed at the front lines as much and carriers sitting at a pos is a bit lame, carriers damage will be nerfed so they can't even do as much damage as a battleship. Correct me if I am wrong but it seems a capital ship should do more than a battleship maybe not by much but still more.
The big problem I see with carriers is their ability to kill smaller targets like frig, it has no problems swarming frigs with light drones and that seems to be the issue that it can change size of targets and is good against them. So ccp is going to nerf the active drones amount. well here is my solution to that. Give the carriers a Fighter damage bonus per level that will make their 5 fighters do the same as their current 15. That with the extra 10 fighters to hand out to your buddies makes the carrier have even more firepower with its poor tracking fighters and compensates for the loss of the drones and rewards the carrier for front line use.

If the change went through carriers would be able to do the the exact same DPS that they can do at the moment. They'll just need gang mates to assign fighters to in order to be able to do it.

Lies! Who ever told you that lied to you. assined fighters don't get bonused damage so a thantos for example is geting a lot less damage and it already lacks the better tanks that the amarr and caldari one have.

But it would still be doing more damage than the other carriers anyways as its own 5 fighters would have the damage bonus.
So you'd have 10 unbonused fighters + 5 bonused fighters for the Thanatos -vs- 15 unbonused fighters for every other carrier.
Furthermore, who puts 5 DCU's in a carriers highslots?
Triage Module? Capital Remote Armor Rep? Capital Remote Shield Booster? Capital Cap Transfer?
With Triage + 2 Capital logistics fitted that leaves 2 DCU's.
Then its 5 bonused + 7 unbonused -vs- 12 unbonused fighters. Thanatos is still doing better dps than the other Carriers.
