TDs affecting everything seems like it's arguably going to make them too powerful in small scale pvp - a boosted pilgrim with multiple TDs will shut down a small gang even more reliably than a falcon, without any of that pesky chance of missing a jam. |

Fit an ACR, easy. In fact the more I play with Hurricane fits the sheer absurdity of its ease of fitting becomes clear. It's very easy to argue that more PG needs to come off.
You just proposed a setup with an ACR and not one but two frigate sized modules, and you're using that to argue that the ship's too easy to fit? Riiiiiight. Let me tell you about the excessively generous fitting room on the Brutix, as demonstrated by a setup with a co-processor and two light neutron blasters! |

Fozzie - can you provide more precise information on the proposed changes to T2 missiles? Specifically, for rage/fury, how big will the increases to damage and explosion radius/decreases to range and explosion velocity be?
Also, the change seems to make rapid light launchers strictly superior to HMLs as long as they're in range. Is this intentional given the very low fitting requirements of the former? |

The HML caracal will be mediocre. The HAM caracal has very nice dps but looks too flimsy for my liking. The RLML caracal is going to be pretty awesome, not just for killing unwary frigates but as a general purpose combat cruiser. |

It'll do around 300 dps (before heat) post patch, out to 50+ km with essentially perfect damage application against destroyers and up when using fury, and the option to switch down to faction ammo to hit frigates for full damage right in their resist hole. You don't *need* neuts for frigate defence when you can smack them down with your primary weapon system. |

GMP applying to unguided missiles is a really massive buff - I'd argue that at the very least, rockets really don't need it and are very strong as is. Might be worth increasing their base explosion radius by 20-25% to compensate. |
