HI
Im sure this has been posted 1000x before, but i feel the topic needs revisiting quite often since clearly the message hasnGÇÖt gotten through. Either that or vie missed something.
YEs thatGÇÖs right .. slave sets and crystal sets W T F.
While im 100% for both of these sets and their respective uses, there needs to be some evening out on what they can and canGÇÖt do. Thats right - the Caps/Super caps debate.
Why on earth (or somewhere in new Eden) would you allow one to effect these behemoths of the battlefield and not the other. You're effectively writing off 50% of the super capitals due to the ******** bonuses the slave set gives off.
The answer is pretty simple IMO,
1) Make an equivalent Shield Set to the slave ( +% to shield HP) 2) Allow the Crystal Set to work on Capital Mod - BRING BACK ACTIVE TANKING!!!!!!!!!! 3) Remove the Slaves ability to affect Armour on super caps.
OR EVEN BOTH 1 and 2 !!!!
Give the armour lovers a set that does +% to shield boost to align them with the crystal.
All you hear about is Avatar this .. Aeon that Nyx Nyx bla bla bla. And no sh!T they have 4x the HP of the other Classes. Whats the Point in even having Hel's/Rag's/Leviathans etc in the game - People use them because they are loyalists not because they are better than the Avatars etc.
CCP you're going through fixing the ships one at a Time .. thats great - but this is something that effects ALL ship classes.

They already nerfed the base HP of armor supers to counteract the effect of Slaves. |

If Crystals don't work on capitals, neither should slaves. Personally I'm a fan of letting them all work. |

Wouldn't it just been easier and a lot less lopsided to make Supercapitals not effected by Implants. |

Slaves are a minor expense when you're talking about owning and operating a supercap. |

I don't think any ship should have stats designed around needing certain implants.

A tanked armor supercap + slaves has same hp as a tanked shield supercap due to recent changes.
Many more pilots have armor trained up however and are in possession of armor supercaps compared to shieldcaps. This is a huge amount of inertia.
Arguably, the Wyvern is the best supercap atm. |

"Needing"
They don't need slaves, but it's such a marginal cost for such a huge gain, it's a no-brainer. Or would you prefer they blissfully ignored what people actually do versus what you thought they'd do? |

They do if they wish to to compete.

Over shields which is why they nerfed the ships.

Absolutely.
Either the ship is implant dependent to compete or overpowered with them and I don't like either option.
CCP discussed a Shield Slave Set as well for Super Caps as another solution. |

This
Although a Chimera has a sickeningly strong tank compared to most armor tankers. It literally is the best solo cap for non-armor-spider fleets. The wyvern i have never flown personally. |

a quick eft warrioring:
[Chimera, spider energy]
4x Capital Murky Energy Transmitter I
2x Capital Neutron Saturation Injector I Dread Guristas Shield Boost Amplifier EM Ward Field II Thermic Dissipation Field II 2x Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
Damage Control II Tuvan's Modified Co-Processor Power Diagnostic System II Reactor Control Unit II
3x Large Egress Port Maximizer I
2 chimeras in spider tank (no siege) tank 12.6k dps each (all lvl5) with over 89% cap stable tank
max you can get with 2 archons is 8.3k dps 33% cap stable
you can't possibly think about buffing it. what it needs is only a nerf
upgrade tuvan's cpu to a better one and you can get 14.1k dps tank (swap thermal hardener for sba) |

That's a pretty huge EFT warrior. - the fit i used to run look something like this (i used to have 2x sensor boosters until they brought out triage, then they became pointless)
[Chimera, Combat]
Capacitor Flux Coil II Capacitor Flux Coil II Capacitor Flux Coil II Damage Control II
Capital Shield Booster I Shield Boost Amplifier II Shield Boost Amplifier II Caldari Navy Adaptive Invulnerability Field Caldari Navy Adaptive Invulnerability Field Cap Recharger II Cap Recharger II
Triage Module II Capital Shield Transporter I Capital Shield Transporter I [Empty High slot] [Empty High slot]
Large Capacitor Control Circuit I Large Capacitor Control Circuit I Large Capacitor Control Circuit I
Einherji x10
50% cap stable with its own shield booster. 3.30 in triage - 7 minutes of remote repping. 2 minutes in triage (i know, bad).
The tank though is INSANE. It's CAP STABLE at 7200 omni. overheated it's cap stable at 12000 omni...
In triage that 2.3 minutes of 47,000 DPS tank...
Short of a titan 1-shotting you that will take a LONG time to be broken, that's pretty much the most insane solo tank you'll get *on a realistic fit, e.g. not one that will never be flown and isn't combat viable.*
P.S.
The 2 empty high slots i usually fit smarties on. |

Vandarra Deneroth wrote: . . . end rant As you no doubt see your rant has gotten little co-ranting support, and what support has come has been qualified. The tanking modes are different. And the supercap disparity was solved in what most of us feel was the wrong way. My preference would have been that slaves had been barred from affecting capital sized ships.
Anyway, as was pointed out by Daniel Plain, introducing shield slaves has a whole set of problems that come with it. Including the regen effect on hp with shield. The only way such sets might be balanced is if they reduced regen to zero. It seems the new tanka toys we got with this expansion were also reinforcing the buffer and active dichotomy. So meh. |
