Old Typhoon that we have in tranquility has long training time due to drones / missiles / guns. It got removed in Odyssey. Why is same type of ship introduced to Amarr? Isn't that like just shifting the issue to another race?
Geddon is versatile but I still don't see why you make the same mistake again? Why Amarr has to be the the trash can?
To get the DPS out of a typhoon you had to skill T2 Large Projectiles AND T2 Torps AND Drones.
The Armageddon should be compared to the Dominix if at all. Droneboat that does not have to rely on weapons to do the job.
The Energy Neutralizing thing is a nice one though, you can do the same you did with a Domi so far, but more effective.
To deal damage you need Drones and Lasers. Or just Drones. You don't have to crosstrain the weapon system of a completely different race.

Wow, Did you really just count the same person 3 times? Impressive. Those where all the people who responded.
Why do you even bother arguing with him when he's obviously not intending to actually argue. Don't feed the.. you know the deal :)
I for myself have to say I'm looking forward for the changes. Still I don't feel like the Tiericide has removed Tiers.
Prices for all went up, and the T3 BS all stayed the same, except for the Hyperion.
The problem I see for ships like the Geddon and Domi or the Phoon are not, that the ships are bad, I personally love the new geddon, but I fear that it'll just not be worth all those ISK.
Why pay 200+mil for a Drone BS if a Drone BC will deal similar damage at much less costs and higher mobility

Apoc:
UPDATE: Based on feedback concerns about Apocalypse cap I've given back a bit of its total cap pool, bringing its cap recharge up to almost 7cap/sec. Its also gained just a bit of armor hp. We will keep on eye on the cap situation throughout testing.
Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 6000(-211) / 7000(-500) / 7000(+359)
These changes confuse me. "Increased Armor HP" and yet it has 1.5k less Armor than the other Amarrian Battleships.

I'm really confused from the Apoc and Navy Apoc.
Given the Cap Problems Amarr ships always had and the fact that these ships lost their bonus to capneed of guns are the 7cap/sec and the coming Laser Changes really enough?
I've seen someon posting somethign about an "Advanved Controlled Bursts" Skill, I actually liked the idea. Being mostly useful to Amarr, Gallente Pilots still would have a use for it. But I'd rather see the cap on the Apoc/Napoc changed a bit to make it less of a pain to fit one.
Looking at the stats on the Navy Apoc it's the same bonuses and the exact same cap, just with slightly more HP and a Cap Power Relay in the lowslot. I would really like to see an improved cap or at least something other than a Cap Power Relay that is worth the extra 300mil ISK.
-this is just for pve reasons, I know very well how amazing apoc and napoc will be in pvp, but a better cap would maybe even allow them to be flown as a solo pvp ship, who wouldn't want to see some pvp videos from a solo napoc tearing apart gatecamps and stuff :3

I mostly agree with Kaarous, but the Apoc is still useful in PvE. The didn't have a Damage Bonus before, and it still hasn't. So the tracking bonus is actually more damage than before.
The Problem is that the buffed Capacitor isn't enough to make up for the lost bonus. With 8 Cap-Hungry Guns it needs to have a capacitor that allows to compensate without having to rely on cap power relays for the lowslots.
If I recall correctly they buffed the Caprecharge by 0.7/sec. And Napoc and Apoc have the exact same capacitor and recharge.
I'd like to see the caprecharge go up to maybe 0.8/sec or 0.9/sec. Even if not for the standard apoc then atleast for the navy one.
It feels kinda odd to have the navy apoc almost with the exact same stats as the standard one, when the navy geddon and geddon are so completely different.
