I fly all 4 races cruisers in pvp, and to be perfectly honest the thorax is completely overpowered with its dronebay size. No argument will convince me otherwise because i've flown all 4 races top tier cruisers, and yes its true you can fit a 1600mm plate and small t2 weapons to all 4 of them, but only ONE of them can also field 8 heavy drones.........which to be honest is like having a second cruisers worth of firepower at your disposal.
Yes drones are one of the gallentes weapons of choice, but so are blasters......so why not nerf the dronebay to 100m3 and still allow it to fit a rack of ions/mwd/slight tank, hell it'll still be able to field 10 mediums if thats done, leaving it one hell of alot of firepower still.

10 medium drones is approximately 50 dps.

Secondly, without a plate, a cruiser is dead very very fast.


No its not........you just have to pick and choose your fights.....i've been flying the same stupid stabber for about a week now......no freakin clue how its still alive, it has no plate and only a small rep....and it sees pvp daily, not ganksquad pvp either.

I've got gallente cruiser 5, and at the moment I will not fly a thorax b/c I feel its an "I win" button. I've been flying stabbers/ruptures/augorors etc, ships that can actually be a challenge to fly and fit.

As soon as the drone bay isnt so ridiculous on the rax I'll start flyin her again......I'll also start fightin them again cause maybe then everyone and their dog won't be using the cookie cutter plate-rax.
