i like all the new changes , except for one thing: the loss of the utility high on the maller.
if these changes go through , none of the amarr cruisers will have a utility high anymore , making them even more vulnerabe to frigs than they were before. drones are nice , but they wont break an AFs tank on its own if its fitting a local rep.
one another front, this loss of a utility high just made the choice for 3 mid permanently a cap booster because you wont be able to shoot anything if you cap out , and you will if cap level woud be the same as the punisher.
also , this says goodbye to some nice RR tactics too :(
let us keep that utility high on the maller!! IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |

hello
thank you for these last changes , looks a lot better for the maller now.
one question though: Are you trying to move away from utility highs at all?
it seems to me that the only ones capable of having utility highs now are the minmatar due to their split weapon systems. (who will put launchers on a ruppie or stabber unless they are completey gank fit , seriously...) IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |

no , they are ot moving away from the cap use bonus , it seems the theme now is that the "top tier" boats ,are losing it in favor of tanking bonus.
i would not be surprised if the prophecy suffured the same fate as the maller and punisher , despite being tier 1 and not tier 2 IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |

tbh NOS work just fine as they are, most of my kills would never have been possible just because of the small NOS
i agree though that the powergrid requirements on medium NOS are a little to big for their use , i would say reduce them to 100-120 or so
as it i now thay us
EDIT: to those wanting to reduce the cycle time of the NOS , try overheating them sometime :P IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |

to me this balancing pass gives every other race what they really want , along with some versatility , while the amarr are stuck with armour , along with no utility highs , less than average damage , and terrible cap usage IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |

Mallers can do 700 dps now while still having good hitpoints.
show me the fit and i'll believe you , i cant find one that break 500 dps ,
im not saying the ship is useless , it ll be brilliant in fleets , where tank and damage projection counts for the most. i'm talking about the solo/small gang where individual ships and versatility is the most important.
what im talking about , is that the maller can only be fit a certain way , close range buffer fit. i havent been able to make an active tanked fit work against other cruisers. and you cant kite fit a maller , its too slow for that compared to all the other cruisers. i've tryed beams , but i cant find a niche where beam are better than the other races counterparts.
it doesnt have any defence against frigates as the ruppie or 4 mids armor cruisers do , it doesnt have a utility high , either for a neut against frigs , or a NOS to help its cap in drawn out fights (>1minute) against enemies, the tracking is also pisspoor as it cant even hit a cruiser orbiting it at less than 2,5k
the vexor is a drone ship. frigates will always have a hard time against those.
the rupture has capless weapons , can be fit both shield and/or armor , has a utility high and a full flight of light drones. has brilliant native tracking, and selectable damage type.
the moa has 5 mids, is shield tank , and im sure that itll be successfull with both pure buffer and ASB fits. IMMA FIRING MA LAZAR!!! |
