No,
You forget, both carriers and super carriers *hate name* are designed to be able to combat both capital and conventional ships.
As someone with a mom/SC i love the changes.. I MIGHT use it in combat now.

um... no they are not, supercarriers (from what i have heard from many people) have been underpowered and essentally useless untill now, they get their combat effectiveness and get a little closer to being that "thing you have up your sleeve incase you get hot dropped" imo i like them and tbh why complain about a MOTHERSHIP killing you? i think a titan that can instapop almost everyship in game would be a little scarrier for anyone facing the barrel rather than a swarm of drones that you can easily outrun. just my .02 isk

The only thing wrong with new moms is the lag they generate and the "worse than sensor booster" blinding effect the bombers torps make when zoomed in. Tbh a 12 bil ship should be able to face **** a 100 mil BS. Just means strategy needs to adapt and change because the torps are like normal torps and have sig radius and explo. velocity issues so you gotta out run them and make them miss.

hmmmmh mmmm
if only there was some sort of ship in eve that locks faster than 30 seconds and using medium weapons instead of torps... and that could take minimal damage when facing down bombers... hmm ... hmmm..
oh well I guess CCP will never release HICs/HACs/Cruisers/AF/Bombers/Battlecruisers/Interceptors.

Unless they have been massively boosted since I tested them on SiSi I call shennanigans on that statement. Were you tanked at all? Were you target painted heavily?
Anyway when I tested the bombers with bombers skill at 4 last week they were as fast in taking down an unpainted BS as a flight of heavy t2 drones, in other words less effective then regular fighters on BS sized targets and I havent read of a massive dps buff within the last week for them so yea....not a believable statement from your side, move along troll?

Try surviving 20 closerange player BS shooting at you with that sort of tank and tell me how wrong is it...
Seriouslly, you should be using a buffer tank and obviouslly you wouldn't take them 1 on 1. One of these ships has the cost of a full plated bs fleet, and if they remove insurance...
Leave them as they are.

25 fighter bombers.
I took down a Titan by myself. His doomsday did maybe 10% armor damage every time he used it.
Incredibly fun to use, but there may be a bit of an issue.

Having tested the supercarriers, both at the giving and recieving end, my view of the changes is that it's finally gonna be worth it's massive pricetag in combat operations.
And even though it has no problem killing carriers and dreads, it's still gonna be highly dependent on a support fleet.
It will be interesting to watch the killboards in the first months after Dominion

Reduce mom's bandwidth. Keep the fighter bombers at a required 500 bandwidth so smaller ships can't use them (ie carriers), but reduce the mom's bandwidth for their control. A lot. 15+ of those bombers is just rediculous, I was testing a NYX earlier and was suprised to see it's 12.5k drone bandwidth... That should be reduced to something a lot, lot lower, giving control to only a few bombers at a time... No I'm not an actual NYX pilot on TQ, but when I see 20 fighter bomber crippling a Thanatos with relative ease, I think the nerf bat needs to come out.

torps are slow does anyone even try too use defenders anymore a large part of the dps of the fighter bombers comes from torps know how ccp can counter that make the torps from fighter bombers slower making defenders useful against them.
Ideal counter would be you sick medium drones on em and have rocket launchers spitting out defenders like candy.

Also you cant smartbomb bombers with a tech1 smartbomb, only with faction or officer smartbombs :)
They orbit and stay at a range of 7.500m and a normal smartbomb is around 6.000m :P

A ship being better than another ship in EVE Online? Time to cancel my subscription i guess.
When you signed up for this game you werent told "Its all equal. No effort involved. Here, have a lolipop".
If mom's are so awesome, then go and get one. I think its a nice change from the current situation of "If im in a mom and there is more than one other person in local, im not engaging (and that one better not be in an alliance...or in a cyno ship...oh ****, i just wont engage to be safe)

If they have a dictor, an rr bs gang wins every time. The moms fighters and bombers will be primaried and then it will die.You're right in a sense though, if they just fire on the mom it will win. But why would they ?

Fail.
RR BS fleet + 1 curse + HIC = dead mom.
Now, if you scale it... is when trouble starts (gangs of moms), but the same problem happens with titans, caps or any ship class.
Now if a fleet of 100 BS manage to down a single mom it will be cost effective.
So: stop failling.

Besides.... Mom is now better then titan... tank wise as well, its just not supposed to be, just... no.
Moms and titans are better at taking pos's down... isnt that a dreads job?
Dreads are now obsolete, giving no dmg to a mom or titan.
fix this.

This is why supercaps should be tested and balanced by a) people who fly them b) people who fight them on a regular basis c) absolutely no one whose only encounter with them is on sisi or against the odd low-sec pirate
There are a couple of real issues with supercap balance, however I'm impressed that out of all the whiners in thread not one of those issues has been mentioned.

titan vs mom = titan tried it out on the test sever, ships use wyvern and an levi
set up on the wyvern was a heavy tank and extra drone controlers 24 drones in total set up on the levi once again heavy tank with dd and 7 citadel torp luncher
it wasn't even close the levi had only a small amount of damage taken. but with everything else it comes down to numbers. as stated any ship is useless if alone and out numbered.
before you post do some testing or get the facts.
ms/sc are now of use again and not a pos hunging dust ball.

can someone tell me if bombers can be assigned?
i know they follow through warp and attack like fighters do but i didnt tested assigning yet.
cause my issue with assigning is that a speed ship + assigned bombers posses a great threat against pos modules... and well the last time i tried you couldnt scramble / warp disrupt bomber so it would be a no loss thing for the attacker if the pos cant 1 shot pop bomber.
also citadel torpedos to a great amount of damage to anything that doesnt move so... i am not really comfy with the idea of seeing my pos may it be deep in lowsec for whatever purpose being stripped of defense by some interceptor pilots with bombers in relativle short amount of time, while the mothership that launched them has only to stay close to friendly pos shields in the system and kite in to avoid a loss.
also possible abuse for fw? bombers against the systembunker which had their hp "boosted"... which than could lead to easy faction lp and and and....
just some mindbowling

I was on the wyvern side of this type of fight quite a few times. Problem isn't that the MS is more powerful its that 99% of the people on sisi had never flown a supercap and had even less idea how to fit one properly. Meanwhile I was in a ship that I have flown for nearly 2 years and knew intimately. Stop trying to decide if something is balanced based on what a bunch of random people playing with knives in the dark can do.

the wider statistcal anaysis re motherships from the testing on SISI will regardless if u know youre ship or not will give a fair idea on what ccp can do to balance ( plus the intenral beta teseters as well) once it goes live ccp will make adjustments after dominions most likley but so far their balancing seems to have most players happy

If you sat there, untackled, wittling down an untackled MS and never once thought to kill their fighters or warp off then no, you really don't know wtf you're trying. I solo'ed numerous MS in a levi by killing their fighters before turning on them.

Uh, they are supposed to. This is an example of a completely uneducated opinion. Are you aware that MS have and will probably always have nearly the same EHP as titans?
And we had carriers triaging on MS to rep them back up, took forever to make more than a dent since MS and Titans have more EHP than a pos. Im not sure you really understand that the remote repping isn't why they were surviving DD's

I went after a supercarrier with an assault-frig and killed 2 of the bombers before it pulled them. I think each of those 'overpowered' fighter bombers did 2.4 damage to my ishkur.. hardly any damage at all.
ofc, those citadel/XL size weapons on the fighter bombers do pack a punch on other caps, but a fleet of a HIC, 2 logistics, 10 AFs and 10ish BS should eventually kill it unless it got some help fast.

Ya as long as you can keep the drones dead it's pretty weak. However it can still do the drop 20 sentries, fire, pull 20 sentries immediately thing that all carriers can do for pretty devestating effect.

Protip: the stated goal of moms is to combat other capships.
This is like saying dreads are OP because they can take down POSs, or saying that HICs are OP because they have bubbles. It's just mind-numbingly stupid.

40 frigs vs 1 mom... wins... MOM!? wtf?
titan vs 30 bs... bs wins 2 hours later (with dominion dd)

it will take a well trained fleet to take down a mom... (thats if the mom is now alone...) WHICH NEVER HAPPENS??

So please tell me how 30 bs stop a titan from warping off or jumping out?
In your little cute perfect world scenarios you are aware that a shield tanking titan is going to have a larger passive tank than a shield tanking MS right? The only way your plan works is if the shield tanking MS somehow has a massive passive regen that requires it to be completely devoted to being passive and the titan is amarr with no rep to speak of. Otherwise the supercap wins in both scenarios. But we both know how well you and logic mix by now.
