Hey i'm just begginer, but...
Why set prophecy bandwitch to 75 ? It's not huge droneship it's abomination. I know its cool and easy to just set numbers like 25, 50,75,100. But when you actually think about this bandwitch it's terribad. Why? Because if you want to max damage out of this hull you will be forced to send some gimmick squads of : 2x heavy / 2xmedium/1x small. 3 types of drones all with diffrent speed, signature, tracking etc. It's awful idea. So you can also send something like 1 heavy and 4 mediums(i dont see it as better but just example). Now you are looking at it and you see that it actually does only have 1 heavy over 1 medium drone advantage VS Arbitrator.
Ok my english sucks so i will go straight to the point. I don't ask 125 bandwitch , but 80 bandwitch is absolutely ok. Why ? It let's you send 2 heavy and 3 medium drones and that is reasonable damage advantage over Amarr Arbitrator. Think about it. |

Or keep the 50 bandwidth, and get more than +10%/level to the drone damage instead? So it actually outperforms every single pre carrier drone ship when fighting cruisers , destroyers and frigates ? I like but not gonna to happen ;). |

My Domi will still 1 or 2-shot incoming frigs with it's 5 sentries omnilinked and DDA-d, while the Myrm would have only two. So no, not quite outperform, only at point-blank range. And at that range, a battleship SHOULD be outperformed by it's smaller counterparts (unless fitting smartbombs, which is a reaaally smart choice while your drones are out ). And on BS level, the 6 bonused Large hybrids and 5 sentries/heavies... Yea, won't fear for the Domi, even if it will have less drone damage bonus from hull, than a Myrm.
"My Domi will still 1 or 2-shot incoming frigs with it's 5 sentries omnilinked and DDA-d, while the Myrm would have only two." Exactly incoming. You think it's all pve. When it's not and so called pvp -orbiting frigates laugh at your omnilinks and sentries. Let's say prophecy would have 20% per level to damage on all drones. Now it's light drones deal about same damage as medium but are faster and got better tracking etc. So yeah at this point you would have not only to start fear about your domi, but honestly domi would be subpar as pvp drone ship. On top of that prophecy crazy 7 low/4 mid layout cominbed with ship resistance bonus would make it TOUGHER than dominix. Yeah i got it right. Maybe not EHP but sure in fleet with remote reps.
Don't get me wrong i love prophecy hull, i'm big amarr fan but giving ideas out of ... back ;) is not good idea. I have strong feeling that devs ignore some posts with crazy unreal/overpowered ideas, while they pay attention to those that are more realistic in terms of ship balance.
Edit : i just talk about pvp as i don't see anyone pick prophecy as hull for pve. After changes of course. |

Dear Fozzie. You listen to players. Then hear me ! I'm new player, but i think i can say few things already about this or that.
I will repeat something i said before. Make Prophecy bandwitch 80. You had no problem adding 25 bay to myrmidon, then you will not have problem adding 5 bandwitch to Prophecy. Atm 75 bandwitch ain't better than 50 to be honest. And 80 is obviously a upgrade over Arbitrator(2 heavy and 3 medium). Or care to explain me what you are sending from your droneboat with 75 bandwitch. |

Or care to explain me what you are sending from your droneboat with 75 bandwitch. 2 heavies, 2 mediums, 1 light drone. It's been used on 75 bandwidth ships extensively in the past.
And this combination failed since always. I can explain how. So light and medium and heavy ? 3 diffrent types of tracking. Sure send this vs dunno cruiser and heavies will miss. Send this vs frigate and maybe light will hit. And even if all hit. Let's see how much damage upgrade is that over 5 mediums(75 bandwitch) : 5 x 24 damage = 120. 2 heavy + 2 medium +1 light =96+48+15=159. Sure it's upgrade over arbitrator but it's at tremendous cost of having 3 diffrent tracking , 3 diffrent signature drones, 3 diffrent SPEED drones. Maybe you like gimmick combos like this. I'm not asking for much really. Just 5 bandwitch.
I don't get myrmidon this , myrmidon that. Brutix this, Brutix that. "fozzie be gallente hero" etc. Hello ? So prophecy was worst BC ever and it does deserve more love than myrmidon and brutix combined. Hell yeah it deserves to be very best now once.
Talking about crap bonuses on your ships ? Well what about : 10% less cap usage of hybrid weapons per level ? Yeah ...

That is not the Talos. The Talos is a kiting ship, and Gallente pilots are happy to have a kitting BC, but we want a Brawling BC that isn't limited to simply fights involving 3 people or less. Again, this Talos is only good as it is because it's shield tank and often ASB tank, fit it with armor and it's not even half of what it is with shield tank. Like everything else, execept maybe ship with armor resist bonus/rep bonus. You said nothing that is new i'm afraid. Shield or gimp - talos is just one of many examples. Sure people do armor tanking - mostly Amarr because we got no choice(frigates can even go with 2 mids and both laser cruisers got just 3 mids). |

Aren't you thankful you can shoot your guns at all ? Funny thing is even with 50% reduction lasers cap you out in no time. What a joke :D. Still love em lasers , will not betray them. |

btw the bhaal is made by a group whose faith is illegal in the amarr empire under religious law
e: and a drone balance is deffo coming at some point soon i reckon
This would be all true , but curse/pilgrim/dragoon/sentinel ... makes me thinks that amarr is the neuting race along with Blood raiders. So sure blood raiders are illegal , but neuting doctrine aint thier thing only. |

Some role differentiation please. Isn't it enough that one is a ship and the other is a boat? Although I actually think there is a difference, Myrm is that 1vs1 active tanker (5 mids and cap free dps make it superior), and Brutix is still the shield tanked gankwagon with as limited use as a solo BC, now just with even more dps but still a wasted hull bonus. Triple-repping Brutix makes it pretty terrible, Electrons stink. Well, the Brutix receiving the best thing that can happen to an armor-tanked boat (enough mids for a shield tank and a loss of armor bonus) would have been too good to be true.
And if it's too good it never happens ? Welcome to Eve. But on serious note i would love to armor tanking to be fixed or at least a serious attempt to fix it. As for now those changes are joke. As for changes to BC's i would not complain that much. I don't see anything being particulary bad. Sure armor rep bonus ain't most dessired, but you better be happy with it or you will get reduced cap usage on hybrid weapons... |

Wow , wow , wow ... im speechless. Are you serious ? Some things are waiting to be balanced , changed for months if not years and you say things are going a bit too fast . I would say opposite. |
