must say i'm worried,
with the nerfs being made to the tracking enhancers, this will literally cripple the slicer.
when running snakes implants the tracking is already bad, only thing that saves it is being able to gain range to allow the turrets to track.
reductions in both tracking and range for the TE will kill the slicer.
IMO it needs a buff to the optimal to compensate.
not to mention its already the slowest kite ship around

The tracking portion of the TE is staying the same is it not? Only the optimal/falloff bonus is being nerfed. |

Tracking component is staying as is just the range bonus getting changed AFAIK.
But tbh the changes will mean a grant total of jack squat to any of my slicer fits. I'll still fly it and it wil perform in exactly the same tbh
That is the Way, the Tao.
Balance is everything.

my point was that it won't track properly since the range will be reduced, transverse will increase due to this fact

Okay.
CCP really did it. They killed the slicer.
The rebalancing stuff in inferno was great. Retribution was okay.
Rebalancing in Oddyssey: Catastrophe.
We will soon see a big comet and firetail overkill.
Btw: Rebalancing of navy cruisers is a catastrophe too. |

locus coordinator rigs are great for extending range (same range increase as old tracking enhancers) |

Un-gimp the fire tail's damage by replacing the launcher hard point and replacing with a turret hard point and make it a shiney rifter

Really? I found the change quite beneficial in optimizing a good fit.

Only buff that was really needed here was the increased targeting range for the slicer and the firetail buff. Navy faction frigs are pretty healthy in their pre-odyssey state. People asking for buffs (other than the firetail buffs) are just baddies that don't know how to fly these ships.
The only concern I have is whether combat interceptors will compete against these ships when they get their buff. While the crow is easily more built for kiting as opposed to the hookbill, the line between the taranis and the comet are far more blurry.
Crusader IMO should have better tank and maybe an extra mid to allow dual prop brawling (rather than get buffed into a t2 slicer). Not sure how to deal with the claw though...
Edit: Also while I don't agree with the TE nerf, it won't affect slicers if you're fitting them right. |

The uber buff of firetail and comet WILL hurt.
Try some fits.
Standard fits of firetails with scramweb td ab, 160dps, 8.5k ehp will eat blaster corms^^
That is not balancing. That is winmagallatar. |

Firetail is finally a useful ship in line with the other navy frigates. Nothing to complain about it.
Do you think that a scramweb td ab hookbill would not have killed your short range blaster cormorant? |

When are these going be unstickied to give Page 1 back to Player Posts? Odyssey is in and the Feedback and Issues threads are active. Why not replace these with a "Link Sticky" to those two threads?
We all know how lazy we are to go clicking...wait for it...past Page 3 of this Forum section.
