no one flies any missile boats except drake and tengu in pvp and those two are way too strong, so there you have it.

Will Tracking Enhancers and Computers reduce explosion radius as a counter?

If they do, then it would be really nice if the Golem's TP bonus also applied to the TC's tracking bonus. An 'always on' TC (versus the TP's 10s cycle) would be a major step towards putting the Golem on par with other marauders.

deal with it and train for a arbitrator

Don't you already have target painters to increase the sig size and damage?

When TDs affect missiles, they'll be more effective against missile boats than they'll be against gun boats.

Nope.

Do you even know what dual TD Curse can do to superior Cane? Does 5k falloff sound good? Yeah, I thought so. At least Tengu/Drake pilots can still spam their heavy missiles from 100km after the change.

CCP has deemed that missiles don't suck enough, and is in desperate need of nerf. Confirming this is the right way to nerf Drake. Drake buffer should remain, and Cruises should be nerfed. The Gods of Eve favor Winmatard.

Any buff to another race will always be interpreted as a nerf to Winmatard, thus the only changes that other races receive are nerfs, which for some reason is not interpreted as a buff for winmatard. The community has too many Winmatard pilots, hence the problem.

TPs are a major PITA and eat up med slots. Why should missile users have to deal with things in a horribly convoluted way when turret users can just fit passive modules (or nontargeted active modules)?

-Use no cap.
-Have selectable damage profiles.
-Never miss.
-Transversal becomes almost irrelevant and you always get hit for some (or much) damage.
-And, until now, they were not affected by one of the racial forms of e-war.

The top PvP killer in EvE is a missile boat.

And no. The Drake and the Tengu are not popular only for their insane tanks. We don't see many Rails Tengus around.

Arbitrator/Pilgrim/Curse is in deep trouble when against missile or drone boat. Even Caracal can beat crap out of Curse.

Anyone see a missile boat larger then a drake or tengu yet smaller then a capital doing PVP recently? Like, for the pass few years ?

You don't think this could be because it's one of like two or three missile boats that are viable for pvp?

Nope hurr durr nerf drake that 350 dps sure is terrifying
