Seems ok, i would like to contribute to this topic by suggesting to finally fix the damn(ed) medium rails instead of playing with 0.1s here and 0.2s there. |

I don't understand - right now it takes 7 bombers to kill a Attack BC Fleet. What is the point of increasing the signature radius? |

To reduce the amount to 6 bombers of course. |

Also, the nado lacks some tragetting range, which is funny, because arties have a damn good range, and in the case of the nado, it's the weapon's range is extremely limited by the hull, even with some sigamps/sebos. Could you check this metric of the nado please? |

You'd think CCP Rise was clear enough. In case you missed the line in original post:
slightly more vulnerable to probing |

CCP RIse,
I'm afraid I can say little of the change due to lack of information.
what is it you want with these ships and at what level.
can't say i this is good or bad without seeing the Battleships.
or the intention you guys have with battleships.
what I can say is the following:
When concerning small gang / solo PvP.
These attack Battlecruisers have no real match. non of the other battlecruisers is realy going to compete with them in almost any situation. Their range, speed and damage easely makes up for the lack of hitpoints,
Combat battle cruisers do easly 400 dps less at a shorter range, which they never going to make up because the Attack battle cruisers dictates range to them.
cruisers are scarp metal before they get close enough to hurt them.
battleships are to slow and some even do less damge.
Al of this might not be to much problem in big large fleet battles with capitals, buit in small combat superior damage, in combination with the speed and range will come out on top 9 out of 10 times.
If this is CCP's intention then that will probably fine.
If you want to open the road for Battleships to have some use in small gang pvp, it will depend on what you guys are planning for the battleships.

Attack Battlecruisers are the perfect ships for the sniping role aka as Bombardement Battlecruisers, but someone insist on making them the perfect solo machine capable of taking the battle up with most shiptypes on it's own or get away pretty easy...
Best sub-cap dps and ability to dictate range just doesn't harmonize. They don't need the surrealistic dps and they could easily lose 25% of their velocity while still performing their role. Currently they are still able to blap most things with ease. People whining about them being fine are mostly trying to save their own e-peen and doesn't care about other shiptypes...

I'd like to see the other attack BCs get some sort of defense against smaller ships, too, although I'm opposed to just adding drones to every ship.
You are aware that the weakness to frigates is a stated intentional design flaw?
What weakness to frigates? They pop frigates before frigates even get in range to lock. |

They probe just fine as it is.
If you want to make a ship more vulnerable to probing, you decrease sensor strength, to which no changes were made. However, if you want to make a ship vulnerable to probing AND stealth bombers, you decrease sensor strength and increase signature radius. The fact that only the signature radius was touched means that the main priority was "more vulnerable to stealth bombers", and "more vulnerable to probing out" secondary.
So the question still stands - why is this a priority? |

Being very vulnerable to ECM is another viable limitation for the class. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

The Talos is definitely getting double whacked, but the TE nerf is not aimed at the Talos. It's aimed at all the ships that are using (and abusing) them. There's a reason that every turret ship that can buffer shield tanks and loads up the lows with damage mods and TEs. The module is just unnecessarily powerful - and I'm kinda excited to see how the TE nerf works out in practice.
With regards to the ABC: I said earlier that I wouldn't have much of a use for them anymore, and I stand by that. I'll poast ~numbers~ for Grath after GDC, but losing 4-5km of range and adding a second to my align time is just... well, not gonna fly for my purposes. I have no doubt that the Kil2 Neutron Special will remain viable though, but I just don't fly that.

I had great "fight" today. Talos and manticore from EvoKe was belting in other system, so I undock with my hero merlin, tackled Talos and start killing him easily. Then Talos launched his MIGHTY IMBA NOOBISH ec-hornets.
First cycle : nothing (5 drones) Second cycle: jam (3 drones) Third cycle: jam (3 drones)
And then talos ran away.
I understand you (CCP) just cant fix drones, but for god's sake remove noob ecm drones from Talos=remove drone bay.
CCP pls, DONT suppport COWARDS like Tribun Auronus (Talos pilot). |

But wait!!!
The experts in this thread have confidently asserted that it's impossible for your frigate to get anywhere near that Talos, let alone tackle it.
LIES!!!

I Am sad as it is that the fire power of tier3 battlecruisers makes the job of a recon pointless (pun intended) when camping gates and so on. Before any sensor boosters are used. A tier3 battlecruisers can lock and fire before any recon ship. And in Lowsec. You can't use frigs for tackling on gates (well you can use an enyo if you can afford the silly fit with legon boosts) due to gate guns and so on. So you would use a cruiser or a recon for that job. But since the tier3 battlecruisers came along. There is no need for that role/job any more. tier3 battlecruisers can lock and pop any target before it even has a chance to warp (fittings depending). My job as an Arazu pilot was not needed any more.
Anyway. Rant over As i said several times. Attack BC are bad for the metagame. They were knee jerk reaction to make players happy back at the incarna fiasco results. Now we are paying the price of ships made to be extra awesome, instead of being good to the metagame. i would be completly happy with removing tier3s at all tbh.
Agreed, or change them to those medium gun using long range sniping platforms and fix the medium long range weapons. |

Cruise and Siege missiles are pretty underwhelming in PVP. I was told they might have worked well in PVE but I dont know.
If the Naga was able to use missile. Then why not make the Talo a drone ship? In anycase. The Naga is one of the best vessels for fleet engagements. What more could a Caldari pilot ask for? |

Apparently they would like to be shooting Cruise at their enemies from 180km away... ;-)

A nice subtle change, but too subtle really. The Talos doesn't need drones, and they could all stand to lose 1 turret - they're just superior to battleships at this point, for mobility is generally prized more than HP. Losing one turret still gives them a lot of firepower, but they will no longer overshadow their larger BS cousins. X |

So because cruises and torpedoes are crap for pvp then instead of those getting fixed and made viable they just entirely ignore them and use another weapon system? I don't know, to me Talos and Naga are just a bit too similar in their roles... and now i guess i made someone angry... |

Will be curious to see what happens in practice. Just scratching my head slightly why the Naga has the highest Align time when it's mass is third lowest (tied with the Oracle) and has least weight tied up in armor and structure? Or are you implying we Caldari know jack concerning how to make proper engines? |

For the love of the gods do not remove a turret from any of them. Do not listen to these people who want turrets removed. They were designed to use 8 turrets. Looks funny when there is a missing turret slot on a 8 turret hardpointed ship physically. They are perfectly fine as glass cannons. Their low EHP is made up by their high DPS. Remove DPS and see less people fly them! |

Would look funny if say half the turrets were missing on the body of a talos. It would just look dumb. Its made to be a 8 turret glass cannon and there is nothing wrong with it. There are a lot of counters to it. Rapiers and falcons!? Care to bring any vs the scary talos soloing your fleets and winning???? |

To make turrets and missiles track them more easily and hence apply more damage, emphasising the "glass" bit of the glass cannon idea. |
