I hope CCP Fozzie (as I understand it he is on the balancing team) wasn't the unfortunate one that made these changes; I love his balls of steel, but he might be biting off more than he can chew? |

Is it just blind 'Goon hatred?' Or are these people who lost an Exhumer 3 weeks ago (or 2 years ago in the case of Krixtal Icefluxor) - and rather than learn from it, they just get mad and lose sight of the forest for the trees?
'Intelligent' miners don't make forum posts, they aren't very vocal because they have no real need to be (it's a minority of a minority). The rest get mad and lose sight of New Eden for the roids (They are winning at EVE apparently).
These changes - in their initial sisi deployment glory - are very much a load of bull. |

You know... If you hide all the vv posts, this thread would effectively shrink by like 20 pages, and nothing would have been lost. Obsessive Compulsive Posting much?

And here are todays sisi changes to barges.

Eat your hearts out.  |

Eat your hearts out.  Yeah the "discussion" in the feedback forum is going strong. I don't get why a T2 ship should get T1 resists plus something. T2 ships are meant to get T2 resists else they should drop the cost from 250M to 25M and be T1.
Don't exaggerate; resistances alone do not a T2 ship make.
You can still achieve high resistances, but you need to use the increased CPU and slots to get them instead of just having them regardless of fittings. It makes tank a more or less mandatory (and easy to acomplish) thing on any good barge fitting.
I don't need to point out why that is a good thing.

Eat your hearts out.  yield bonus on the hulk is nice. retriever never had a 30k ore bay anyway, it has been 28k for the last few days now, the 50% bonus dropped to 25% but it got an extra 2.5k base ore bay increase anyway. mining crystal change was a few days ago unless crystals are now like 12.5m3?

Dark Ochre Mining Crystal I
volume: 30.0 => 15.0
They are 15 m3 now :sherlock:
As for the tldr, I'm not claiming any accuracy as it was a direct copy paste from Serpentine's blog. |
