Did you see the new dev blog???
They are FUBAR'ing the rigs!!! Rather than having the options of lite rigs on your Battleship instead of the currect heavy rigs... all sizes are going to have the same effect and be split to ship type they fit to.
THIS SUCKS!!! It will kill the rig market!
Hey CCP... since you are making all size have the same effect, can my Small Rail Gun do the same damage as the Large Rail Gun???

Such a waste of a thread. If smaller rigs did less, they would still be worthless to fit onto a frigate. Rigs are a % based modification, therefore they scale with ship class already. If small trimark rigs did 5% and could only be fit on frigates, nobody would rig frigates with them still because that would be about 50 more armor total.
If I'm reading your complaint right that is. _________________

Dev Blog
Multi-Sized Rigs
Currently, you have a Trimark Armor Pump I which costs around 15 million ISK on the markets today and can be fitted to any ship with a rig slot and enough calibration points. What we are doing is splitting this rig into three types; small, medium and large with the same effect but scaling material costs. Small ships like frigates, destroyers and their Tech II variants such as Interceptors or Interdictors will be able to fit a small rig. Medium-sized rigs can only be fitted to medium-sized ship hulls such as cruisers, industrials and battlecruisers...you get the picture!
ummm.... yeah

Meh, I thought they were going to make it so smaller rigs were slightly less effective than the larger rigs for more variety.
As that stands there's now simply no point at all to fitting a large rig to a small ship despite it'll probably still be possible.
Was looking forward to this but now I'm a bit disapointed to be honest.

Small ship gangs were already very good.
Assault ships are now going to be insane, costing a maximum of 3 million isk to trimark rather than more like 60 million isk according to that blog.

At 3million for a set of trimarks for AFs, you might as welll give all of them the 50~% increase on armour and be done with it.

Edited by: Kessiaan on 07/07/2009 17:52:53 I believe the OP is under the impression that you'll be able to fit small rigs on a battleship, hence, there will never be any reason to ever purchase, build, or fit any rig other than small.
Let us all point, giggle, and hurl insults.
I think the new rigs will be awesome - half the cost of a good interceptor or AF is from the rigs. And at the prices they're throwing around rigging T2-fit T1 frigs won't add hardly anything to the cost.

With these new rigs coming could we PLEASE get some calibration back on the Rookie ships?

Yeah we know the OP is confused.
Still doesn't change the fact they've decided to spit in the face of everyone who currently holds rigged frigates and make future small ships uber duber when it wasn't really necessary at all.
AF's were already popular after their earlier buff, there's now going to be big roaming fotm gangs of them, especially in militia.
I always know I'm not going to like what I hear when it's coming from Chronatis though.
All they needed to do was make all current rigs count as large as they did.
Say a current (large) trimark with 15% bonus, but make mediums a 12.5% bonus and smalls a 10% bonus as an example.
Where frigates and such could still fit them and for example use a large a medium and a small rig on the same frigate if they wanted. AKA variety from balancing cost reduction and effectiveness.
All they're going to do is say, NO YOU CAN'T FIT THIS!, WRONG SIZE!
It amazes me CCP Staff have the cheek to moan at us for using cookie cutter setups at times when that's all they ever give us enough freedom to do.

Op was under the impression when this was first announced that they were going to be 'lite' versions, not just different ship sizes. ie: Current Large gives you 15% bonus, a new medium has 10%, a new small would give you 5%.... this would allow you to not invest the 45 mil in 3 large rigs and give you the option for some 'lite' rigs and drop a total of 15 mil on 3 smalls

How would different size rigs having more or less effectiveness make any sense, really? Since rigs give a percentage value to anything they modify, they already scale with the ship they're being added on to.

Nice one not reading the thread before posting, looks like you didn't even make it to the 4th post. _________________

just based on the size differences between classes I feel like that would just be a waste.
like frig rigs on a bs I cant see as doing anything more then +.1%
a med rig on a bs might be worth 3-5%

So what's wrong with them costing less? We are already getting hit with high prices on many other things some are just absurd. This game gets a bit ridicules at times with the amount of income generation you have to do just to fit a PVP ship that can be blown up its first flight.
Everyone wants more fights more action? Well things need to be cheaper so the average joe doesn't have to spend 2 days making ISK to fly a fitted and rigged Assault ship. Remember not everyone in game can make 50 mil and hour.
This will be good for the rig and salvage market anyway as there will be more demand as more people actually start rigging sub T2/BC/Bs ships.

…why would you want to trimark your AF?
The whole ship class was just made (marginally) useful by rather drastically reducing their weight. So why on earth would you want to weigh them down to their previous level of slowness and lack of agility—even if it's cheap to do so? ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

The biggest complaint I see coming out of this is from owners of CURRENTLY rigged frigates and cruisers, seeing as they essentially paid for a large size rig for their small or medium ship.
The solution to this is similar to what they did when snake implants got nerfed... pop them out as a one time only freebie deal. So if you have a Crow rigged with 2x Polycarbons, logging in after the patch, your Crow would be unrigged with 2x Large Polycarbon rigs in its cargo hold.
That way small/medium ship owners can't say they were ripped off. __________________________________ :Signed: |

or ... you just buy 1 large for 15 m and get the same efect ... D-R is recruiting

I completely agree with you. Not that it matters anyway. But yeah, it's true. :) Let's see what ccp has decided to do about it.
