this fake was so obvious. On Sisi the Retribution is actually 6/0/5 now, so we can enjoy two useless highslots instead of one!

Personally I love the retribution as it is. It's a highly specialised frigate that is very effective when you fit it for a specific role, it may not be a solo ship but that doesn't mean it's not good.

I'm surprised by how many people were apparently tricked by this. My photoshop alarm went off right away. The first thing I noticed when looking at the picture was the armor resists. The OP could've done a better job.

I only did this to provoke some replies around the Retribution with a different (useful?) slot layout.
Actually quite amazing how many people would rather keep the 5/1/5 layout rather than sacrificing a low-slot. Even more surprised that some actually want to keep the Retri as-is. Based on that there's no wonder nothing is being done (or will ever be done) with the Retribution.
Also, it's always easy to see something is tampered with after someone else already said it. Most people were certain of the authenticity until someone actually checked it out on SISI. Love how people "knew right away" though 
As far as rigs go, yeah, I guess dps rigs on a Wolf is crap . I couldn't be arsed to remove the rigs or buy a new Wolf for a 5 minute Windows Paint job though. I assumed some might notice Proj rigs on a Laserboat I tried to put Medium Pulse Laser II's on it, but had to downscale to DLP2's instead cause Wolf grid is kinda cheap.
Anyways, thanks for the replies. In light of how people didn't like this module layout on a Retri it will never be changed, so think I'll just stick to trying to get Rockets fixed for the Vengeance instead.

to me there is only 2 ways of fixing the retri tbh:
1 way is to give it a 5th turret, fittings, and probably tune the cap a bit.
the other, while I don't like it that much, is to swap one of the hislots for a med one.
both ways also imply that all AF's get their eternally missing 4th bonus, and that rockets are fixed. ---

This would be awesome, but considering how long it took CCP to fix the stealthbombers (and some even consider them more broken now ) I don't hold out much hope for the bonus part to be fixed on this side of 2010.
Rockets should be looked at and fixed since rockets as a weapon system is what literally "ruins" alot of ships. Vengeance, Malediction and Heretic are all suffering DPS wise because rockets fail as a weapon system, as well as some Caldari ships.
Right now they can almost be flown with nothing in their hi-slots since the roles they perform is all done via medslots anyhow.
It's a disgrace!
(Vengeance is so sexy too... *spins Vengeance around in hangar*)

Atleast change the rigs first or do it with a Vengeance to get the resists right  ________

I don't want to sacrifice a huge chunk of my tank and/or damage just be able to scramble/web. Another hurdle is the over-powered status it would get .. already has top notch damage and superior range, tackle would be a recipe for FoTY if ever there was one.
Retribution is a gang ship, probably the best of its kind at what it does. The Vengeance has more than enough tackling ability for the pair of them.
Now if you were to propose 10-15m3 drones I would be more than happy to support it

If you were observant you would have seen it on the rigs long before the resists. Ah well

Thank you for the laugh, that was hilarious.
