Nerf the Thorax, because it performs like a cruiser should perform, without using cruiser sized weapons. Right that's a great argument there. I'll have to remember it sometime down the road.

I also enjoy the argument: This ship costs (insert amount of money) and it should be better than the Thorax. Well folks I've got a little news flash for you. Those prices you are paying for ships, aren't nearly as low as they could be, stop thinking isk=power of ship.

Boost other ships, don't nerf the Thorax, it's really that simple. Add PG and CPU or cap recharge rate to the other ships, allow them to fit bigger guns to help them deal with the Thorax as it comes charging in. Make a new tier of 3200 plates for Battleships, so the Thorax has BS hp whines can die out. There are a lot of things that can be changed, it doesn't have to be the Thorax.

Dude, that is not the argument and you know it. Do you hope that this confusion is helping the debate, or do you just believe that it will end it ?


Actually no dude, you keep using the term "disposable" in your argument, so you are only contradicting yourself with this statement.

Problem:
The combinaison BS armor + BS weapons + frig defense in a disposable cruiser is wrong.
Every tier 3 cruiser can fit frigate guns.
Every tier 3 cruiser can fit a big plate (or two in the case of the maller).
Only the Thorax can use BS weapons..


Solution:
remove the ability of the thorax to use BS weapons.

Problem solved Razz

Who are you to tell everyone heavy drones are a battleship sized weapon? Who died and made you king of EVE to declare what can be used as what? Sure heavy drones are a good weapon, but like so many people have pointed out to you, they can be destroyed. I know every MMO you have ever logged into had cookie cutter templates that you had to use to be successful. In EVE there happens to be very good ships in each class that require just that extra bit of planning to be able to defeat. Let's not make EVE just another cookie cutter game where everything is the same, just with different names.
