Krell Kroenen Miners In Possession 140	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:09:00 - [181] - Quote I fear that racial traits are being scrubbed away in the name of balancing. No one is really saying that the ship changes being purposed makes these ships non-viable. But they really don't feel very minmatar either. Perhaps one day we will all be flying the same ship but with different colors and shapes to chose from. shrugs It would explain why this thread hasn't seen any Dev replies. From their point of view they are happy with the balancing results, and we really can't say they aren't balanced. The main complaints in this thread are about how the ships feel.

Yes, they certainly are. Although as you say the Typhoon is having its unique minmatar flavour wiped away and essentially being turned into an armored raven, it would still be a useful ship for sure. But that is not the case with the Tempest. I can't see any useful role for it now which either another ships, or simply the maelstrom would perform much better.
Iam Widdershins Project Nemesis 798	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:25:00 - [183] - Quote I rather feel I have to join in the chorus of people declaring the Typhoon changes an overall nerf... I'm not going to exaggerate, it's not a huge nerf, but it IS a nerf. Maybe I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that a lot of people flew it with all 8 highs fitted with weapons. I know I do; leave neuting to the Dominixes. With the loss of the turrets and the gain of one more launcher, this gives it a more streamlined and clearly defined role and boosts its missile DPS output somewhat, though its versatility is reduced a little bit and overall its DPS is decreased. This would all be perfectly fine, but adding to this a rather gaudy nerf to drone capabilities, losing 25 band and 75 bay, turns the change from a tolerable adjustment into a definite nerf. I for one don't know what is so wrong about a non-drone-bonused ship with a full drone complement. I don't want to see the Typhoon relegated from a staple damage dealer to a glorified Armor Raven. Lobbying for your right to delete your signature
Kagura Nikon Mentally Assured Destruction Whores in space 84	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:28:00 - [184] - Quote IF and this is a BIG IF>>> IF THEY REALLY NEED to make the typhoon easier to fly and require a bit less SP they coudl make the following 7 highs 6 launchers 6 projectiles 7.5% torpedo rof 7.5% projectile rof old 125/175 drones Ok now you can decide what of the 2 weapons you want to use and not care much on the other.

That is normal. That is minmatar or should be style they larger class ship are only slightly larger than the other races smaller class ships. But they shoudl pay with Hit points. But ccp is tryign to remove all races differences! In fact thyey NERFED minmatar sig . Tempest should also have low signature and the ships should pay that with less EHP. I just fear that we wil have to post a lot of garbage in this thread to achieve 40 pages and get same attention as the gallente one had. Even this thread being MUCH more one sided towards "WE HATE THE CHANGES"than the minmatar thread.
Jonas Sukarala Deep Core Mining Inc. Caldari State 72	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:42:00 - [187] - Quote seems odd that the phoon has 7 lows but is a shield tanker..... i would suggest you minus 500 shield add 1300 armour and reduce its mass down to about 95,500,000kg. And do a similar mass on the mega say 94,000,000kg and Apoc to about 96,500,000kg and raven about the same 'Tech3 ships need to be put down, like a rabid dog drooling everywhere in the house, they are out of line' CCP Ytterbium Nerf missile range into place..... where is the TD missile change?-á ,...projectiles should use capacitor.
Alek Row Silent Step 15	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:44:00 - [188] - Quote Krell Kroenen wrote: I fear that racial traits are being scrubbed away in the name of balancing. Yep, it seems that the lack of replies is "normal" for a thread with so few posts when compared to others. (It also leads to concerns in how they are interpreting their so many ship statistics). But that exact issue as been discusses in LOT'S of threads, and there are ZERO ccp responses about those concerns. This Typhoon was expected to be honest, just look at the past Cyclone. The Tempest is 'in line' with what they are doing to the Minmatar race traits lately. The 10 years "survivor"... I think you finally killed it, gratz.

But that is not the case with the Tempest. I can't see any useful role for it now which either another ships, or simply the maelstrom would perform much better. I will confess that I haven't used any of my Tempests in some time. Especially after the Teir 3 BC's came out. And you make a good point that the proposed changes most likely won't change that. What stood out to me about it was that it was gaining sig and some hit points. Which isn't very matar like. But because the ship was already pretty much retired for my uses and the changes didn't inspire me to reconsider that status, I failed to really look at it further. For that I apologize.
Rebecha Pucontis Tribal Liberation Force Minmatar Republic 136	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:48:00 - [190] - Quote I just hope that CCP Rise will act in the face of such overwhelming negativity. Sure you would expect some negative responses, but it is difficult to find anyone with a positive response to these proposals. And I have yet to hear what exactly the new role of the Tempest will be, because from what I can tell, no one will use it.

Kagura Nikon Mentally Assured Destruction Whores in space 85	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:53:00 - [191] - Quote We have been tryign to brign up the lack of tempest role for years. Back when projectiels were changed.. there already was a tempest need to be changed thread with more than 60 pages, for months. And it stood growing up to 130 + pages. And yet.. all was ignored trough all these years. And now that they finnaly had a chance.. they decide to not only ignore tempest. But NERF it hard! Yes 80 extra signature diminishes the survivability WAY more than 1500 armor increases. And the PG boost is almost useless. Not needed on AC fit and changes NOTHIGN on how to fit with arties ( you still need the RC II for use the MWD anyway or the MJD). So its a FAKE buff and a NERF .
Rebecha Pucontis Tribal Liberation Force Minmatar Republic 136	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:55:00 - [192] - Quote The way I saw it was that the low signature was pretty much the only thing the Tempest had going for it. At the moment it is a bit of a jack of all trades, and master of none when it comes to its slot layout. I quite like this approach but it needs something extra such as a low sig to make it work. With a lot of the other BSs now encroaching on its previous roles, and massive sig bloom, I am confident that if these changes go ahead then it will definitely kill the small niche roles it has found itself thus far.
Phee Phi PhoPhum Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 1	Posted - 2013.04.09 15:56:00 - [193] - Quote CCP Rise wrote: Welcome to the Tech 1 Battleship rebalance, fasten your seatbelts! Typhoon: Slot layout: 7H(-1), 5M(+1), 7L; 0 turrets(-5) , 6 launchers(+1) Please stop with the missile boat mania!! You've already turned the Bellicose and Cyclones into Caldari boats. Minnie ships are meant to have projectile weapons on them.

CCP Rise C C P C C P Alliance 314	Posted - 2013.04.09 16:00:00 - [194] - Quote Hey guys We're going to post a few tweaks tomorrow based on feedback from all the threads, minmatar included. To answer a couple things though - I think the comparison between the raven and the typhoon is kind of surprising. Both ships will now be able to field 6 missile launchers, so they have that in common, but thats really where it stops. The typhoon is the fastest of all the battleships by a substantial margin. It has the fastest align time and fastest mwd speed of anything available. This strikes me as very 'minmatar'. Along with that, while its losing some of the extreme versatility it had before, it still supplies quite a few options both offensively and defensively, while the Raven is quite clearly a dedicated shield ship. As for the tempest, I think what we are now looking at is having the tempest be part of the 'attack' category as well as the typhoon. It already behaves more or less like an attack ship, and maybe adding hp and increasing sig wasn't adding much to the overall ship. So we will likely bring the sig back down to near where it was before, take some of the hp back, and increase its speed slightly. Both ships will still offer flexibility in the way they are used that is fairly unique to minmatar. Check back for tweaks in the next couple days and keep the feedback coming =)

It can at the moment be tanked on shield and armour and in the future both tankvariants will be even possible. That said I dont like the new Phoon. Yes it will still be a good ship maybe even better than before but it loses a lot of that "swiss army knife" feeling. At the moment a phoon can be either tanked on shield(not very good but it can work) or on armour. It can either use torps or autocannons as main weapons and can use the other as support or can use the rest highslots to either use neuts or remote rep. After those changes this variability isnt given anymore.

If sig can be bought back down to current Tempest levels, even if a HP nerf is necessary, then I am sure it can still find a niche role. I think having two attack BSs in the minmatar lineup would be a nice break from the current tiericide treatment also. Confidence has been restored, thanks for listening to the proposals on the Tempest. Now just need to address the typhoon drone bay nerf in my opinion and things are looking very good once again.

Make the pest a heavy armour tanker I don't know how you managed to come to this conclusion. Typhoon is quite clearly an armour tanker, and the Tempest is quite clearly a dual tank. I wouldn't want to see this changed personally, I like the option to be able to dual tank.

Two Attack BS's is very Minmatar, and giving the Tempest its speed and agility back is the way to go. Thanks for listening to my fellow Minmatar pilots

Kind of fits the Minmatar "all guns blazing" idea I've always had. Two attack BS's in the Minmatar lineup is a great idea. On drones: drone bays should be larger than bandwidth as a general rule, I think. It allows for versatility. Also, no battleship should be stuck with 50mb of bandwidth. It's a battleship, not a battlecruiser.

Check back for tweaks in the next couple days and keep the feedback coming =) I think the complaint to do with the Typhoon and Raven is basically the same as the one people have with the Dominix and the Armageddon. In short it's, "Why would I ever fly a Raven now?" The Typhoon is faster and has better damage application, with its explosion radius bonus. Additionally, you really don't need extra range on cruise missiles, and torpedoes desperately need the reduced explosion radius to get anywhere near their paper DPS. If I go digging for excuses to fly a Raven, there's ... the fact that it might actually be able to fit tank and tackle together now ... and the fact that faster torpedoes will be harder to run away from. Cruises probably won't gain a whole lot out of the speed bonus, after all, and torpedoes already reach near the end of long point range. Besides, if you're actually going to do full damage the target needs to be webbed and painted anyway. For me personally, the last time I used a Raven was when I was running L4 missions, and the new Typhoon is superior to that unless torpedoes become a viable PvE weapon. It just feels like, now, when it's finally getting a boost, it also got obsoleted at the same time by that Minmatar Flexibility.

Matuno Tailor Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2013.04.09 16:23:00 - [204] - Quote Minmatar and Amarr are opposed as Gallente and Caldari are oppose. Minmatar and Gallente are ally, I think the same is true for Caldari and Amarr. Kinda. For weapon, Gallente and Amarr have drones, Minmatar and Caldari have missile. So their is some sort of mirror relation. Then you look at the scorpion. An anomaly, E-War BS. Hey, look at the typhoon. An utility BS. Maybe it would be more of a typhoon if it evolve into a E-War BS rather than a missile boat. Just a though.

Honestly I didn't think yall would be flexible about changing your plan here, and I'm happy to find out I was mistaken.

And if the Tempest can hang with the other attack battleships when it is all said and done then I would love to dust off my old hulls, and bring them back to life. Thank you.
SMT008 SnaiLs aNd FroGs 537	Posted - 2013.04.09 16:50:00 - [207] - Quote Thank you CCP Rise. The Typhoon being compared with the Raven has to do with the fact that the Raven is super fat shield tanker while the Typhoon is a super fast armor tanker. I feel like they're quite close to each other right now. Thank you for the Tempest. I think that some changes to the slot layout would immensely help the Tempest toward shield tanking. So that we have one Armor Attack BS (Typhoon) and one Shield Attack BS (Tempest).
