If we are missing one of the 2 races skills will we have to train it from frigate or will you be able to... Bump us?

There will be no skill "bumping" i'm afraid it would take me far to much time. Get training soon Battleship level 1 will not take very long.

Better get your queues set now guys. Remap if you want to make the 30th.
Caldari Frig/Cruiser/BS1 takes 6 days 8 hours with 30 Perception.
Hopefully it will be late in the day on the 30th. --------------------

I talked with CCP, and every unique ship such as storm, corvus... will not be avaible, all the other you can buy will make the test.

All pirate and empire faction ships that you are able to obtain on tq, so no unique (Storm, Corvus, Imp Apoc ect) but otherwise everything.

faction ship test or fleet/lag test?
Anyway, mind if I give some feedback from TQ experience?
Cynabal: needs a grid upgrade, badly. Although being based on the Rupture, it never did receive the same grid boost that one got.
Faction frigs in general need an overall. Many of them sport 50/50 turret/launcher ratio. Doesn't quite make sense for Gallente Comet, Serpentis Daredevil... Would be interesting if empire faction frigs would get the same treatment their cruisers did. One frig in particular is laughable, Dramiel. This one has 25% projectile damage, 37.5% projectile tracking and another 25% projectile damage bonus, that's awesome. Untill you see the weapon layout, 2 turret slots, 3 launcher slots. It does a decent 109 dps with 200mm and rockets, 66 of that comes from the guns, but when you realize it could do more with 3 turrets, 1 launcher(instead of having 5 highs, it could pass with 4 and have another mid or low), it seems rather silly to have that layout with those bonuses. It can use an extra mid or low. I also got the impression it's another ship that was forgotten when the base ship received a boost, the rifter received an extra lowslot long ago iirc, doesn't seem to be reflected on the dramiel.

2 of the Guristas faction ships, Gila and Rattlesnake haven't received any of the change to the inertia modifier of Caldari ships made some patch ago.
Not giving them a value as good as the T1 version can be reasonable, leaving them with the old value of the Scorpion and Moa seem to point to forgetfulness, not design.

All but the sansha faction ships and the main 4 races cruisers and BSs are all crap.
The frigs are pointless as t2 out classes them by a country mile. And the other races just plain suck.

Ashimmu: Needs a CPU boost, badly. You can't fit it T2, it has to be mostly faction or best named or you'll be out of CPU halfway. Grid needs a boost too, if you decide to fit T2 weapons and NOS/Neuts you will need reactor controls and grid-rigs (not to mention CPU mods) to get it to work, and that's without using a MWD.
DPS is abysmal (150-200, you'll need the lows for HP, Grid or CPU, so Heatsinks are out), but compensated by it's sting with NOS/Neuts, the ship is however very fragile considering how short the range on these modules is. The extended range webs are great, but your lasers are the only thing reaching that far, the NOS/Neuts certainly won't.

I have been eagerly awaiting a buff (hint, hint) to faction boats for years, and I'll jump at any chance to fly one in combat. I'll be there!

in other words ccp wants to nerf faction ships - perhaps this is leading up to t3 battleships that will take the faction ship dps and other bonuses ?

not really, faction cruiser stabber/omen/caracal/vexor aren't bad. same for the BS apoc raven mega are pretty good, the tempest its still a tempest. empire faction frig are crap, get rid of split weapons.
but pirate faction ships except sansha ones seriously need a boost

I am sure you will create a new feedback thread after this event, though you could just move this thread here and sticky it, as it already has seven pages of feedback about faction ships. -------- Ideas for: Mining

In response to all your tinfoilery the intention is to get a player perspective on how the ships are balanced, be that they need a nerf or a boost depends entirely on the feedback we receive.
I would also stress that this is an exercise to gather information and enable you all to voice your opinions on the matter, and that no definitive action is planed, but mainly we just thought you would all enjoy it
So put the tinfoil hats away and il see you on Saturday

so you want feedback on faction ships eh well i can give that to you without a big event althou ill enjoy the big event
Bloodraiders :
Need a neut/nos range bonus aswell to benefit from the web bonus (the cruor and the ashimu anyways)
their damage output is appaling and that laser bonus is silly because the ship needs cap so badly and you dont get any aditional bonus to lasers anyways so you fit projectiles
id suggest bloodraiders get : 1) range bonus for nos neut 2) bonus for projectile weps
Angels :
Cant say much about the dramiel but the cynabals damage is .. meh... prety please give it another projectile slot machariel ... hmm its ok i guess ... up the speed to 200 thou :D
Guristas :
well they just plain get laughed at by .. well everything and they have the agility of a medium sized solar system
Serpentis
would love the daredevil without a split weapon system .. or if that system would permit it to do damage
i dont know whats so special about the vigilant at the very least it needs more powergrid
vindicator needs more cpu or maybe thats just my fittings
Sanshas
got balanced and are fine
but in general id like to see faction ships and especialy pirate faction ships to be something special
starting with the model ... it shouldnt just be a paintjob .... althou we do want the EoM paintjobs
personaly id like to see faction ships to be on par with t2 ships but doing something diffrent role wise (ok thats not always possible but still)

Preliminary feedback would be:
1.Bloodraiders - all ships need a buff,slot layout,maibe bonuses and such 2.Guristas - worm and gila need looking into 3.Serpentis - afew tweaks here and there,nothing major 4.Sansha - all ships fine 5.Angel Cartel - dramiel and cynabal need looking into,and some buffs,also it would be nice if we had one of the old NPC angel cruisers for the cynabal model,well that is personal pref.
Also: - make faction frigates more accesible,reduce their LP costs or something to bring them at the price of an AF,aswell as buff them abit,10mil for a faction frigate would actualy motivate afew players to try them out in pvp if they are buffed properly
- some faction cruisers also need their price tweaked abit (talking about pirate),or some minor buffs for the ones that need them
My oppinion tho. -------
