And they will now hit out to 60-ish km without range mods which is kind of pwn. The DPS loss is doable, they were doing a whole lot to a huge sig, now they do a bit less but the sig of all their targets has been buffed, net result = not much changed. (except range!)
60km range and actually applying some damage. Are smartbombing carriers still the epic problem that they used to be? How are faction cruise - presumably it's cruise so it deals crap damage 60 seconds after the target dies well beyond lock range.

cruises are just **** dps
torps now travel a lot faster and got their hp boosted so you need like 5 well-timed smartbombs to kill it, and a whole lot more if not timed that well

I went with Revelation as I'm in the Stain area so it's a lot easier for me to get hold of Sansha XL crystals than than faction XL missiles. Fuel I have to import either way. Plus in alliance fit Phoenix has crappiest cap recharge and I don't like the idea of being last dread to jump out when traveling (or having to rely on escort carriers to get cap up fast enough for jump). In reality I will be spinning in the POS shield most of the time and looking at stars either way when deployed somewhere.
I will prolly train up also Phoenix after getting skills up for Revelation as it's only few weeks extra but I will not get myself personal one. Just good to have in case the current dread goes pop and corp does not happen to have revelation for replacement at hand at that moment. Revelations seem to be somewhat more popular in the south.

Trust me, U'll be the last to jump out if u fly rev on a capital op, hey but rev will get U on more killmails, since in the laggy capital fleet fight revs don't need to reload the ammo which will save U tons of grief. Besides Rev can snipe fit as well. As for your " DPS", during most of the capital fleet engagement, your guns or missiles will most likely need to cycle once or twice before the target is gone, so yes, rev is a better choice.

Not having to reload was also quite serious plus for the Revelation. In theory Phoenix is kinda nice even if you take reload times into account but considering all the cases of late when your guns get 'stuck' when there is any kind of of more than 50 vs 50 fight going on it should remove one of the very annoying dangers of gun getting stuck when reloading. Ofc they can still get stuck when your target dies if you are on autorepeat (in that sense phoenix is better as when you have autorepeat off it has higher volley damage) but so far it has seemed to me it's not as bad case usually as when you try to reload. Reloading or switching ammo or scripts seems to really mess one up if the serverlemmings are running off the cliff.
