Here's my prespective, from flying a nyx for more than 2 years, and been part of 3 major wars with it, and now sisi extensive testing:
- HP boost: was needed. Alto, 4x on the primary tank type sounds "awesome", it inst. Problem with it, is that a mom is alot more expensive than a dread or carrier, thus, when a fight rages on, the FC will try to win the fight, that fight, can be own by looting the field or by isk ratio. To kill 1 mom is to kill 15 carriers, so, supercaps are always primary. Specially now for the titans.
This buff only means, they will take longer to kill, thus, every1 will be "on time" to get on the killmail.
Me, as a veteran nyx pilot, i wont field my ship just because i have 4x the armor.
- Survivability: Currently, it's near zero, and on sisi aswell. The capital armor rep'er (and capital shield booster) are too weak to repair the massive amounts of shield/armor this ships currently have, and even worse with current sisi values. This ships really need a +100% per level bonus or +50% per level as a absolute minimum.
40mnts to self rep is nuts.
- Lack of triage. Triage is part of the "emergence" on this ships. You taking away alot of options (read: emergence) from players here. Triage can transform this ships in logistics monsters, motivating owners to field them and opening more emergence to the FC's.
- ECM thingi: useless. i tried to jamm HICs several times in the past on multiple occasions and i never broke theyr lock on me or others. it's frustrating. i had to use ecm drones with neut's to be able to escape or help others escape.
- FBombers: They look good, they are promising, but they really need to orbit @ 10km or more from target and the torps they use rly need a massive hp boost so they dont die horribly to smarty's.
- Docking: If you insist on that lame name, then you have to let this "supercarriers" dock.
All in all, i think the risk vs reward of fielding this ships in a 50+ hostile dread scenario as it is today, the risk is too high.
supercaps will stay as they are. log'ed off.
My sugestions:
> armor/shield repper bonus (+100% per level) (or, release a supercapital armor repair module for supercaps only)
> FB and the missiles get +400% eHP
> put the triage back
> put the option of gang modules back

back paddle faster.
im not saying moms are solo ships, they should not be solo ships.
they survive longer in sisi, yes, because rarely there's a HIC around.
