Prolly been said already, but.... 30 pages is Tl;dnr.
Mega is a great multi-role BS as it is. With current low sec mechanics, yes it's more used as a station game counter, or a quick ganker. But dropping it's armor amount and taking a low from it is gonna make it really rather fragile as far as a blaster based attack battleship would be.
I do love my Mega, don't get to fly it enough. I can't imagine, with current low sec mechanics and all, that I'll be able to fly it with any regularity as it will be. Can we drop the Random High and have our Low back?
An RoF bonus is pretty silly if we can't track.
EDIT: Tracking statement is based on losing a utility low which usually carries a magstab or TE to apply the mega's full DPS potential |

I tend to analyze this as fear of change : mega pilots don't want their mega changed, and hyperion pilots don't want their hyperion changed. The only thing which would please them is a straight addition of something to make their beloved ship OP (read "have more than the others"). In the case of the mega, we can lose a high slot for that mid.
Trading that High would be a better trade IMO. I'm just wondering how this change will lean toward shield gank mega's supported by Scythe's as station gamers :/ |

Not sure what to think of the Ring on that Hyperion Model. It looks cool, but it also doesn't feel functional. Granted, many Eve ship models are NOT know for their functional appearance.... See Burst for example.
That being said, THAT has a much stronger, more cohesive design, a much stronger presence if you will, than the current Hyperion Model.
The Law is a point of View |
