I have no explanation for my love of this ship, none. Its ugly, split loadout and generally sub par, however, I love her. Sadly there are far better ships for running level 4 missions in, PvP, etc. This could be fixed by adding a NAVY Version of the Typhoon.
Who knows if CCP is even listening, but I would love to see a Navy version in game, anyone else?

Sub par? Highest DPS subcapital not good enough for you?
Get out.
But I too would like a navy version, if only because that makes it more likely we'll see navy geddons, scorpions and domis

Being minmatar wouldent it be republic fleet typhoon and not our opressors navy ?
But yes, we deffo need a hardcore Faction Typhoon, our recons, HACs, and capitals suck donkey ballz, only good ship we have atm is the tempest for sniping and munnin, 2 ships for the entire race, yiphee.
No wonder alot of minmatar pilots have cros trained ~~
But back on track... yes deffo, Republic Fleet Typhoon, imagine a pimped setup with all republic fleet mods, now THAT would be a solopwnmobile.

Oh yes, you're so right, man. Huginn/rapier, vaga, phoon, wolf, rifter. Terrible, terrible ships.
BTW, phoon isn't "mediocre" it is quite good.

Well, they aren't very good if all you do is PvE in them. That much I'll grant :) The Rapier is a pretty bad mission runner, after all. OF course, compared to the Falcon it's way better, but ...

I see what you did there.
I think the Typhoon is more a Thukker thing than RF though. Should have one more mid slot and better agility than the standard Phoon, and a bit more grid.

I'm not sure how I can explain my love for the Phoon either. I also agree that we should get faction tier 1 BS's, tier 3 I'm not so sure about.

Guys guys, before we make a republic fleet typhoon, we need to do two things. Firstly fix the concept of split weapons. Increasing the 5% ROF bonus to a 7.5% and making the high slots a 5/5 slot layout for real flexibility.
Then before we make the typhoon a republic fleet icon. We need, nay I say WE DEMAND, the Republic Fleet Bellicose.
Yes the Bellicose, the ship that CCP considder a shining example of Minmatar ship designs. Its found in the most amount of official game trailers and posters of any minmatar ship. Plus it could do with some strange replublic fleet enhancement.

Also, with t2 fits a 4 damage mod 1 fitting mod Domi can get within 3 DPS of 6 damage mod Phoon and still have some slots leftover for tanking. Personally, I like the idea of a no damage mod Phoon, Get around the decision of what mods to fit by choosing none.You have all your slots to fit tank, AB and EWAR. But I admit I have more skills as an EFT warrior than as an experienced pilot.

Edited by: Meyr on 26/02/2009 07:10:44 Since there's already two faction versions of the Armageddon, and a faction version of the Scorpion, why not ask for a faction version for the Dominix and the Typhoon? Seems fair to me.
How about it, CCP? A State or Navy version of these two ships? Add an extra low to each? Maybe an extra mid? A bit more armor or shields or cap?
The Amarr have 4 faction versions, the Caldari have 3, and the Minmitar and Gallente only have two each.

Yeah i would deffo have a Fleet Typhoon, altho dont the Minmatar Customs use Typhoons? maybe that then. but what would be different about it? extra mid? more cpu/grid? enuff for a T2 Torp/Auto pwnage painter Drainpipe o'death? afterall the navy version dont get any additional skill bonii just more grid/cpu hps and slots.
also my own little petition is for a 7th turret on Fleet Tempest to make it just that lil bit sexeh

the bugger with split weapon system, at least for the typhoon is that two bonuses are spent towards 1 effective bonus. Its got 5% rof to large projectiles and cruise/siege launchers.
Its "single" bonus is just 5% rof to 8 slots. As such, split weapon ships have fewer ship bonuses than non split weapon ships. Additional drawbacks are higher skill requirements and less effectiveness of weapon boost mods (gyrostabs, tracking comps ...)
Split weapon system do allow for some variations in fittings, but in the phoons case it is stuck to 4/4 hardpoints. Even the rupture, which doesnt have split bonuses, has a 5/3 giving it a 2 or (useless) 3 launcher option.
imo split weapon systems should get at least TWO bonuses towards 6 weapon hardpoints. This would mean that the phoon is missing either a projectile bonus or more appropriately a missile bonus.
so, please add another weapon bonus to the phoon. . |

That's a good idea. I have heard that the best way to capitalize on the Typhoon having the smallest signature of any battleship was to shield tank it and bloat up it's signature |

The Rupture is 4/3, it just seems like it has 5 turrets to it's targets
But your thoughts are right, the phoon should have slightly better bonuses (how does 5% to launcher/projectile ROF and 5% armor resists/velosity/sig radius reduction/agility (choose one)), additionally the shield and armor values should be switched and it could use about 500 more PG.
And a Republic Fleet version is a great idea.

OTAY!!!
But I'd ask for a tad more before slapping "fleet" on it and sending it out the door to LP stores near you.
