I don't know why people hate on Gallente. I recently refitted my Myrm to a Laser boat.
There's your problem. Hybrids are bad, and when your best option is to fit another races weapons you've got a fairly obvious problem with regards to balance.
Except it's not a problem because you absolutely don't need to use another race's guns. I use blasters on every Gallente ship I use. Even the drone boats.

Don't need luck :) just a bit of magic, science, and common sense :)
Either they willingly go into your range, or one scram takes care of everything. Even if you can't catch them, their pathetic ranged dps can't even kill you :)

Precisely.
Something else i like to do while playing docking games in my myrm is offline some modules or pulse a single rep to make it look my tank is uber terrible. Dock, rep, repeat. It boosts their confidence and encourages them to make a mistake, like getting into web range to entice me engage so i can't dock and rep. Sadly, you can do this only once per war with success.

I really ought to try out a Myrmidon with autocannons someday soon.
But the Myrm is a bit of an anomaly. And it has a wasted bonus (the armor rep amount) even then. I keep training up in vain hope that the dev team will give Gallente some love, one of these days...

That rep bonus is most certainly not wasted, triple rep myrm is really the only myrm worth flying (meaning the only one with a distinct advantage over other BCs within its niche) |

triple rep myrmidon (assuming you feed it with cap successfully) has about 635 tank, bonus , 2 speed repair rigs and 1 repair amount rig included.
Passive shield recharge myrmidon 3 extenders, 3 recharge rigs, 2 invulns, shield relays in the bottom has 950 ish tank.
Sure - that's pure tanking , no prop, no tackle and signature of a bs.
But still - it's a pathetic ship, only damage bonus to drones and it's drone capacity might as well have been that of a vexor since it's bay is not much larger, actually it's the same as the arbitrator's bay.
On another note it has always bugged me that the arbitrator has 150m^3 for drones and vexor which is from the drone race has only 100.

Yeah, Myrmidon is a weird one. At the very least I think it should have its bandwidth increased by 25 for a 100 total, so that it fits midway between 75 on Vexor and 125 on Domi. And its drone bay capacity needs to be at least doubled, it's a battlecruiser after all, or at least it's supposed to be. I can't help but feel that all of Gallente ships need to be looked at. Some things just make no blipping sense.
I've also been pondering if improving the synergy between blasters, sensor dampening and drones might do the trick for Gallente in general. Blasters like close range, and sensor dampening reduces the targeting range. If dampeners were actually effective, they might do the trick to force the enemy into your blaster range, or at least closer to it. Similarly, targeting your drones would be hard while dampened, and when they do get a lock, you just pull them back and break it and release drones again. This might make drones not worth trying to manually target any more, allowing them to do their work.
Or am I just thinking with my bum, like usual?

A purely passive tanked drake is 100% useless in pvp. A triple rep myrm can fit a web+scram+MWD no problem. Don't underestimate the triple rep myrm, it's one of the few legitimately good gallente pvp ships (though it could use an extra 25m bandwidth)
Also you are aware that passive tanked a myrm tanks roughly the same as a drake yeh?

Vexor has higher bandwidth, and being the race with the most drone ships doesn't mean that other races' drone ships have to suck. |
