The upshot is that fitting a full rack of 720s with a MWD and LSE and full mids and lows will require a RCUII and either an ACR or PG implant.
How is that an upshot? From my understanding the word "upshot" is supposed to be a good thing. Full rack of 720's with a MWD and LSE right now only requires a ACR, needing a RCU2 as well isn't an upshot.
"upshot" is a way of saying "in essence" or "basically" or "this is the key information, all else is left out" |

It should be pointed out that missiles are the only charge/ammunition that can be destroyed and the only ammunition that can be outrun entirely. The tradeoff, at least what I thought was the tradeoff, for missile boats was, you get the full damage at range, but that damage is mitigated by the targets speed, size, and ability to destroy or outrun the missiles (firewall anyone?). These changes reduce the damage and range and provide two more options for mitigating damage. Something about that just doesn't make sense.
edit: also, if defender missiles worked properly, complaints about HMs would probably stop |

I guess I must have missed tracking all this time.
try outrunning them in a straight line some time |

Whoa we're settling on a direction now?
Pick any direction you like with a firewall setup. Do those work on turret based weapon ammo? Didn't think so. |

Looking forward to another 50 pages.
missiles can be destroyed. projectile ammo can't. deal with that first, then we can have this conversation |

All I know is, this change makes missioning in a Tengu take a whole lot longer. Congratulations on making a crappy task like EVE missioning so much more crappier. The Macheriel crowd was neck and neck with the Tengu crowd for efficiency. Now it will be miles ahead, deal instant damage, and have all the benefits of being able to field a full complement of drones, which the typical mission tengu was not.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm sick and tired of CCP forcing us to make choices and plans a year or more in advance, then changing all the rules to make those choices irrelevant and wasteful. I care less about specific buffs/nerfs than i do about the wasted time, effort, and planning. |

I mean sure, it was te most effective missile boat for lvl 4 missions, but I wouldn't put on par with the Mach... Dominx is damn near as fast if you can't just snipe triggers and hit the next gate
The new AI will be busy ripping your drones to pieces. You'll be spending the majority of your time managing drone aggro. Have fun. |
