Plan is to revamp sites to 4 sizes: rookie (only tech 1 frigates allowed, no navy, pirate or tech 2 variant), small (all small ships, including navy, pirate and tech 2 variants - essentially all frigates and destroyers), medium (all cruisers, including navy, pirate and tech 2 variants - battlecruiser variants are not allowed) and large (unrestricted access). The more I think abou tthis the more I don't like it. There is nothing wrong with the current system. I read this as L1: T1 frigs L2: Sabres L3: HACs, Recons, Logi L4: Nanofag ships 1. After the rebalance T1 frigs are perfectly viable options in current L1 plexes. They are competitive with dessies. 2. Navy faction ships are currently inferior to their T2 counterparts. Their only advantage was their flexibility in getting into smaller plexes. This advantage is gone. IMO, FW should be all about faction navy ships since 1) they are faction navy ships for faction warfare and 2) they are given out at a discount to the LP store. 3. No room for T1 cruisers. T2 AHAC/Logi/Recon will rule the day in L3s. 4. Armor BCs are worthless, only more "open ocean" nanofaggotry. If you are going this way, then please put a warp in on L4s. .Maybe it's fear of change. What do other FW players think of this change?
Well, here's my quickly thought out thought. on the subject. We've seen the T1 frigs be brought more in line to be competitive with T2 frigs. Not a lot, but enough. If we move this up to the cruiser and BC classes, that means that the T1 hulls will be much more effective than before (I'm looking at YOU Omen).
That being said, I don't see HOW they stand a CHANCE against HACs, Logi, and Navy/Pirate hulls. Sure some of us are EVE rich, but that doesn't mean we like to blow through all our ISK super quick.
I agree with others that adding in the rookie plex is fine, but keep the other size restrictions as they currently are. I think it would be cool to see a few more unrestricted majors around though.

With Faction Warfare defensive plexing, YES THEY DO. When I defensive plex I do it on an alt while playing League of Legends.
Wait, don't you play EVE in general while playing LoL? I kid ,I kid, but I had to go there. Sorry Chat.

Ship rebalancing dev blog + plex reassignment gave me a slight *ding* moment. Well, more like a 3 watt bulb getting a power surge to 5 watt. Seems I was right on track.

Nah. they'd be vialbe still. You just couldn't sit your happy tush on the button and snipe away at anyone coming in. Watch the scanner, anyone comes on short scan, burn away. Easy as that.

They attack them even though I have high standing with the faction and do not attack the rats first.
Is this intended?
