This isn't another "Make Caldari OMGWTFBBQPWN in PvP" thread.
This is just a request for two small changes. Lower the CPU requirements for Shield Transporters, and can the Merlin have 3 Turret Slots please? I don't care what you do to the missile bays - we already have the kestrel, but please, give us 3 turret slots. :)
Please :)

i'm not looking for a RR merlin gang. The shield transporters are a ***** to fit on any ship.
I like hybrids, but split weapon ships are not quite viable in pvp. Merlin is a classic split weapon ship. Plus, Caldari ship classes from cruiser up - have a turret ship and a missile ship.
I don't think the Merlin classifies as a turret ship in this scenario.

Both would be small, but good changes.

Both perfect changes. The CPU need on transporters is nothing short of comedy and the turret ship of the frigate lineup having a 50/50 weapon split is ****ing stupid. Signed.

@Shield-RR-Merlin-gang: sounds like great fun for me :P One navigates - the rest follows at 500m ^^ Only blaster range could be a problem here...if blasters are part of the fittings.
Better: Shield-RR-Hawk-gang with fixed rockets

Save the missiles from the glowing blob :S

There is another thread on shield transporters. No need to start a new one. And, NO
As to the Merlin, my Caldari alt loved that ship as a noob. Don't touch it.

I loved it also, Its cute, symmetrical, and I thought I could take on the world with it when i got it. However, in pvp - the only thing you can really do with it is tackle and get on Killmails's with it. It doesn't need another missile slot - Kestrel fills that role. The Caldari frigate lineup is missing a turret boat. Keep the 2 missile slots and give it another turret slot - that's all I'm asking.

But that is what tech I frigs do in pvp.
And in pve way better to have the launchers. :reread: Well, ok, if you don't take a missile slot, just giving it another gun slot for a 3/1 setup, fine. I'd suport that.
And yes it is cute and symmetrical :me tears up:

Just wanted to agree with:
Both would be small, but good changes.
Merlin could be changed to 3/1 for turrets/launchers.
Shield Transporters need to have their CPU needs reduced to 40% of current, and their powergrid needs increased to 250% of current.
This would make them much more usable than they are currently, while still making them take up a bit more CPU and a bit less powergrid to account for Caldari ship layouts.

Shield transporters do need to be fixed. The merlin just needs rockets to be made useful.

Just to be clear here - "but I have fond memories of it" is not a reason not to change a stupidly designed ship.

Merlin's a good ship at the moment. Or would be if rockets didn't suck.
Shield transports... yeah, they do use too much CPU.
