With all the blob warfare going on these days, Eve online needs to see an overall increase in the tanking capabilities of fleets .

I agree, ships die too fast these days. Maybe a increase in resists or raw HP across the board? The idea of ships having "holes" in their armor/shields is frankly silly and needs to be fixed.

Eve is overtanked right now, not undertanked.

At present there is a problem with ASB's. Once their timer is up you are forced to wait a full minute while they reload cap chargers. This forces players to add two of these modules simply to maintain a normal amount of repping.

This means other important modules such as invulnerability fields are not able to be fitted making these kind of tanks highly innefficient.

What we need to see is the introduction of a remote ASB that can allow fleets to focus their repping on a single ship which can also apply some semblance of resists at the same time.

Let's face it. With all the blob warfare going on these days, Eve online needs to see an overall increase in the tanking capabilities of fleets if we are expected to have reasonable combat engagements where a pilot can expect to engage, contribute and survive more than a few volleys.

All ships should just come pre-fitted and you can't change it. It'll be like buying a mac

Everything has holes, and we all should have the ability to plug those holes... or face the consequences. That is what game balance is all about. Options.

Currently there is no option but to put a couple of ASB's on a ship which is the antithesis of good game design.

How so, when a Bhaalgorn and a Vindi can kill an active tanked Hyperion in under 8 seconds? ..or a shield buffer tanked Scorp in less than 20, or.. well, the list does go on.

But you are suggesting to fix that by means that will improve tanking (shield tanking in particular) while leaving many of old tanking modules behind, except maybe good old 1600mm. Also you suggest to add capless RR into the game while adding zero incentives to tweak existing tanking fits and of course not affecting solo fits.

Besides, introducing even stupidest i-win active tanks won't ever "fix blobbing" since active tank is irrelevant against alpha. And finally, any sort of RR improvement (RASB definitely qualifies) favours larger group more than smaller one.

Subjective note: capless active tanking should die in a fire. Tweak numbers on existing modules instead.

History lesson.

Back in the day this same complaint was made. So CCP increased all ships raw HP by 50% across the board. The result? Ships died just as fast as the blob increased to compensate.
