So Phoenix and Naglfar are oficially useless ?
 Quote:
A second capital missile weapon system is being introduced in Dominion, the Citadel Cruise Missile Launcher. The Citadel Cruise Missiles will not differ greatly from the Citadel Torpedoes that currently exist on Tranquility, offering the long-range choice for damage. We adjusted the Citadel Torpedoes to fill the role of a close range bombardment weapon better.
...
The explosion radius of Citadel Cruise Missiles will be set to 1500, which differs from the current 1000 explosion radius of Citadel Torpedoes on Tranquility
Of course balance was needed - missiles was worst damage dealing weapon system. But if something is too nerfed and you nerf it even more.. erm whats the logic in that ?
And again - why people need new skill to operate same weapon as now? New torpedos are completly useless and to be able to use Phoenix everyone need to train Cruise V - great...
Quote:
which means target painters will have to be utilized in many situations to achieve full damage potential
LOL really funny, I hope its joke ?
No other dread need to use tracking computer or anything to be usable. Phoenix and Naglfar without it can shoot only at titans and ms ???
Devs really want only Revelation and Moroses on field or something ???
With this changes I think Ill just sell my Phoenix (erm blow up, as propably noone will want to buy it) and start training for Moros (only gallente bs V to train... propably better choice than training Cruise V).

Press headline:
Some Jove Empire citizens has been succesfully converted to Amarr Faith. You can expect huge love for Amarr technology and Jovian's wraith for all other races techs.
First heavy blow to Caldari and Minmatar heretics dealt.
Gallente Moros somehow escaped full wraith, only with slightly wound, but that will be fixed soon...
Amarr Victor.

Let's see...
"Target Painters Do NOT Work on Titans, Supercaps, Structures, or Sieged Caps"
The Citadel Torpedoes don't do their full potential damage to Dreadnoughts, however they were balanced to do similar amounts of damage towards Dreadnoughts as XL Turrets with this in mind. Citadel Torpedoes have the ability to do more damage to larger targets.
So what logic is in that - Phoenix is only dread that "don't do their full potential damage to Dreadnoughts" (and other smaller targets) ? Every other dreadnought weapon system HAS SIGNATURE RESOLUTION SET AT 1000MM. Why Phoenix cant fight against other dreads / small and medium control towers or any pos structures ?
If Phoenix keeps its "role" as anti-super-capital only dread then its completly useless, dont you think ?
Its also not in pair with smaller calibres:
Large Projectile / Hybrid / Laser Weapons - signature resolution = 400
Cruise Missiles - explosion radius = 300 (0,75 x gunnery platforms)
Torpedos - explosion radius = 450 (1,125 x gunnery platforms)
X-Large Projectile / Hybrid / Laser Weapons - signature resolution = 1000
Citadel Cruises => 1500 (1,5 x gunnery) - shoudnt it be 750 then ?
Citadel Torpedos => 2250 (2,25 x gunnery) - shoudnt it be 1125 then ?

Just do this.
Motherships Get Dread Jump range.
Motherships get 20 Drones at Lvl 5 carrier.
Citadel torps AND Cruise get 1500 Explosion Radius, Torps (and compact get roughly 60ms explo velocity).
Motherships get a EHP buff.
Fighter Bombers (with 20 fighter bombers and lvl 5 fighter bomber) do roughly 8000 dps+
Motherships cant dock
Motherships dont get build costs reduced
Motherships lose triage and clone vat to balance the increased damage.
Titans Get 5minute DD timer.
Titans get the same damage as 2-3 Dreads (8-12k dps) with lvl 5 Titan.
Naglfars dont get a split weapon bonus (the dread with 4! weapons should be doing the most damage. Currently the Nags artys with EMP (20 shots) has to reload every 5 mins, which is sooner than every other dread and it requires carrying more ammo types).
Phoenix should get a 5% ROF damage bonus and a 5% bonus to ALL missile damage types.
Cit Cruise and torps should have 1500m explo raduis, being make smaller with skills for the cruise so they are effective against large pos mods and small pos. Right now Turret ships can still hit medium and small pos mods for massive damage while missile dreads FAIL extremely FAIL at this.
Do this and ALL problems will go away. Everything will be good. Harmony will spread out among the player base.
This is TESTED BY THE PLAYERBASE and everyone was in agreement. Only your shortsighted Egomania felt that Capships being used aggressively was a bad idea.
Also- I think you are out of line starting your post with a 'Lets see' as if the players are all idiots and have missed something.
You CANNOT impliment ANY of these Titan changes if you are going to leave motherships as they are.
You have also forgotten to do any work on Triage- It was said originally that Triage duration would be cut to 5mins and strontium consumption would be reduced.
Why you feel Torpedos need something so bizarre as a 3000+ explo radius ive no clue, you are terrible for causing more problems with your problem ideas.
I would add this:
* Citadel Torpedoes skill renamed to Citadel Missiles
* Citadel Missiles allows usage of both Citadel Cruise Missile Launcher and Citadel Torpedo Launcher (no new skill introduced, so skill-wise missiles need roughly samo amount of SP as gunnery weapon systems)
That would be perfect solution.

You are incorrect about the anomalies. They currently maybe support 2-3 people. Thats at best. The anomalies dont constantly respawn as another good anomaly, they re spawn as something random. Most of the time this is a terrible anomaly. You spend most of your time clearing crap anomalies that earn you 10m isk / hour at best. Currently its not really worth it over ratting. If you have an entire system to yourself if could be better income. But if you have that, your military will decay and you wont have them for very long. Most of the anomalies are trash, and the system is not going to bring in that much over what you already see from ratting.
Seems it will suck, Anomalies can be done only straight after DT. And after few hours all anomalies in system will be level 1 or 2 (as noone will be doing them) even with lev 5 upgrade...
Shoudnt they work like that - with level 4 upgrade active you have always:
* 4 lev 4 anomalies (when l4 is done new l4 is spawned)
* 4 lev 3-4 (random) anomalies (when its done new level 3 or lev 4 anomaly is spawned)
* 4 lev 2-4 (random) anomalies (when its done new level 2, level 3 or lev 4 anomaly is spawned)
* 4 lev 1-4 (random) anomalies (when its done new any upto lev 4 anomaly is spawned)
That would be logical. Or if that would be too god - then only add that lev 4 anomaly when done always spawn lev 4 anomaly / finished lev 3 spawns new lev 3 etc. But this way only 4 anomalies will be actively used, everyone else will stick to belt ratting.
