Lasers:
We really ought to talk about lasers, we really need a flat out -25% or even -33% cap use on ALL lasers. As is amarr ships are capping out way to fast, and that leaves them quite sub par with their counterparts.
Especially since we are all hailing king Hyperion and Pope megathorn now. Lasers as they are now simply dont offer enough of a benefit to offset that cap malus.
Yeah scorch is nice, bla bla (its the only reason lasers are even remote viable anyway...), but lasers use too much cap, in both pve and pvp settings.
And lets put it like that; even if you were to cut laser cap by 50%, you still wouldnt see myrmidons or dominixes fir lasers, despite omg-op-h4x-scorch....
Surely has been cleared already, but use discharge elutrations and a cap booster! All the amarr pilots I know don't complain in the slightest once they fitted that stuff GÖÑ
Also, I'm extremely happy this new Geddon is coming in summer, and not just for christmas. Cause that thing belongs under a tree.
I'm unable to comment fleet warfare, so abaddon looks totally fine for me, given it was a decent ship to boot.
The apoc though... holy crappers. Tracking Bonus appears as a huge deal for me, especially in a moment of apocs vs. missile-spouting battlecruisers, this could tip the balance a lot.
Back to the geddon: Are you mental? This Geddon is working exactly the niche that the curse had for itself, though 10times the mass. Personally I'd like to urge you to rethink the neutrange bonus, neutrange boni are extremely powerful, especially paired up with Gardes and a mate to tackle things. In addition, the domi looks like a PvE-variation of the armageddon right now.

Everyone else has to eat ammo. It seems only fair that the Amarr have to eat cap boosters.
But using ammo isn't forcing you to fit dedicated modules for it, is it? And for cap boosters you have to use med slot don't you? never mind that you can put only couple cap boosters in cargo, which will most likely not last for whole mission.
Think before you write something, please.

PvE? So you can run your armor reps cap stable and are complaining about the guns... hmhm. And you got over 500m-¦ of cargo, you can't tell me you cannot clear a mission before you run through those.
Lasers are the one wonderfully working weapon system... At least I always catch myself trying to fit HPLs to a shieldmyrm :3 Doesn't work cause gallente ships just don't have the cap recharge of an amarrian hull.
Edit: XL-ASB Varg runs lvl 5 missions relying entirely on cap boosters for tank. And it works. So where did the laser hurt you? |

We already have neut/nos ship in amarr line. 2. Neut/Nos bonus is useless in PvE. (While drones are actually useful.) 3. Neut/Nos bonus is only situationally useful in PvP either.
1. Really? Show me the T1 neutplatform now pls.
2. well, you can use NOSes instead of cap rechargers. Aside from that, who cares about the ship balance regarding pve.
3. Yes, but so is almost anything. Remote SD can break a group of logi cause they spread, or it can not affect them at all, cause they stick. Just talking the range dampening. Together with Garde's ~30-40km range, 36km neutrange seems pretty much on spot. And if you say that neuts aren't generally useful, the fleets you are flying with must be a real big-ass f1-blob. To my knowledge, there is always something that works less efficient with 7 heavy neuts on it. |

Ya Beam lasers are useless weight on this client unless for the meta IV tachs on a ratting oracle.
Mainly because Scorch is strong. So why can't you be happy that scorch is good enough to obsolete beams almost completely, instead of whining that beams don't have a role.
Also, comparison of modules without taking the potential application of the complete fitted ship into account is just weak. |

Is it to late to ask that the new geddon is getting something like a bonus to activation energy instead of range? Regarding the neuts. That rangebonus indeed is insanely powerful. |

If a battleship would ever want to be safe from swarming frigates, it should have a destroyer-escort. |
