To me, the Navy Drake looks like the Tier 3 BC missile sniper that never was.
And after a year of playing, it doesn't seem quite as awesome as I thought it would when I first wanted one. |

HARBINGER NAVY ISSUE: Gained medslot and much more sturdy. Very good.
BRUTIX NAVY ISSUE: Gains low slot and like harbringer also more sturdy, good one.
HURRICANE FLEET ISSUE: I see what you did there  Bit hard to swallow having the price upped by 100+m but if this is the way we are headed i think it's good. 
DRAKE NAVY ISSUE: Hmm the added shield hp disappears fast when compared to regular drake with the resist bonus and might actually even lose on the ehp side. DPS is also lower although this one might be able to actually use furies.
However the other navy battlecruisers all have very clear UPDATES compared to their T1 part, more hp and they also gain low, mid and 2 utility highs. Heck, the regular drake has more dps and has even utility high...

NanoHam Drake is going to be hilarious again.
Fitting seems a bit tight, but nothing unworkable.
Should be able to hit 2k kiting speeds when heated.
Oh, and people complaining about losing the damage bonus, shouldn't worry.
The explosion radius bonus is going to make up for that by allowing T2 missiles. |

Thats because the idea of a missile sniper is inherently ******* terrible and you have wised up.
It's just great to see that CCP is bringing back the old ways, so many new useless Caldari ships falling flat on their metaphorical faces out of the undock this summer. Overpriced 8 launcher Drake with no damage bonuses whatsoever, which I'm hearing gives it less DPS than the current kinetic-slaved Drake... The Raven, having not budged from it's position as arguably the worst battleship in the game... |

all of them look very interesting with the exception of the Fleet cane. And that is because every other one gains different bonuses and fitting then their standard counterparts. And for all of those who think you are getting your old cane at the low low price of 4x the cost of a regular battle cruiser. Your not the PG is still nerfed so the classic fits will continue to be worthless. So oh good super expensive still not nostalgic crap. If you aren't going to do it right at least at least do something new please. Not to mention its supposed to be a brand new ship too the game everyone gets excited about that and you have for our surprise all this build up old post nerf cane..... heartbreaking.
Still also seems like a pretty high price compared too T2 BC or even some faction BS but will have to see how that plays out. Drake should be fun to play with extra range HAMs that are sig bonused I amnot too knowledgeable about missiles though. Brutix should hit like a truck though i am sad not to have another chance to fly the excellent myrm model around space. The Harbinger i have no idea of the mysteries of lazer power on the other hand look it's an amarr ship with 5 mids..wish i had 5 mids! excellent slot layout

Velocity bonus (Kiting HAM drake anyone?) and excellent damage projection against smaller targets? Simply beyond winning. Congrats, you'll have a drake that can kill cruisers and perhaps take on frigates. But last time I checked, 8 launchers with no bonus is lower DPS than 6 launchers with 50% bonus when using the correct ammo. Hurray, you can use EM/explosive ammo now, and still do less DPS than the recently nerfed drakes. I'm missing the OP part....
Well, for one thing the 'recently nerfed Drakes' did not have their DPS nerfed. In fact, with BC V they got a slight DPS gain (6 x 1.5 = 9 launchers, up from 7 x 1.25 = 8.75 launchers).

Are you trying to troll? Non kinetic drake went from 7 to a sub cruiser grade 6.
This is a very good offence oriented NAVY DRAKE, I am concerned about its EM resist hole. |

I'd be lying is I said I wasn't slightly giddy at the thought of using these beasts... but I'm concerned that these might further crowd out/step on the toes of battleships and Navy Cruisers the same way Attack BCs and regular BCs respectively did.
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

But who uses non-kinetics in a Drake? As for the Navy Drake, yes it will be good offensively speaking - A HAM fit will have good reach and very good applied DPS on small ships with Javelins and with Rage it'll do more DPS than a standard Drake with faction Scourge, because the explosion radius bonus will mean more of it actually lands. Much the same applies with HMLs.
It's tank will be a bit weaker, though, and it will be harder to rep (more HP and lower resists mean less EHP back per rep cycle).

Further the Matari alternate doctrine of launchers and continue your attempt to 'redeem Minmatar split weapon platforms' - take the Cane Fleet in the direction of Scythe Fleet please.
Versatile fitting with 2 equal bonuses to guns n launchers - let pilots fit either set
2 Utility Highs
Fast and Small Sig
At least try, youre really expecting people to shell out ~200m+ for the old Cane with extra beef?
While i like the idea of a FIscythe treatment for the FIcane, some difference should be made. Otherwise you just dilute the incentive to fly the FIscythe. How about focussing them more on a support function. For example the old scythe had a bonus on Tracking Links. I imagine them equal to their t1 counterpart in a one on one but when they are part of a small gang, the whole gang profits from their presence. boosting the strengths of their own race: FIcane: tracking link NIbrutix: remote sensor boosters NIharbinger: cap transfer NIdrake: remote eccm or maybe countering the strengths of the opposite race:FIcane: cap transfer NIbrutix: remote eccm NIharbinger: tracking links NIdrake: remote sensor booster Snip
Just no to the support function idea.
Ref your point about why would people use FleetScytye? Same reason people use a Rupture while the Cane exists:
1. It's a cruiser, all the sig and scan res benefits vs a BC
2. It's cheaper
3. It's Faster
4. It's as agile as an AF

Dream on. At those inflated prices only an idiot would fly one over a standard 'Cane. You are right about one thing though; CCP's definitely giving Amarr ships their turn at being OP and soon to be FOTM. Minmatar may be unhappy now about the nerfs but, your turn in the room with the man and the bat will come back around soon enough.

Looks good, very good . .can actually see myself flying them ... but I am confused. You are doing a major shake-up of the T1 lines and navy is on paper a fairly straight improvement of said lines yet you designed the Nomen to deviate/specialize a lot almost to the level of T2.
Are the Navy BS going to be their own thing like the Nomen or follow the T1 line? Consistency man, Consistency!
Whine/Rant: Now all we need is for FW farming to be curtailed so that vanilla BCs will still see use post-patch as the combination of infinite LP and high volume LP intensive hulls such as these BCs will depress the value even further, taking even more away from "legitimate" pilots. |

Not anymore. Regular Brutix got 6 turrets and a bigger damage bonus to give it more dps while also giving it a free high slot (an upgrade in every way). Navy Brutix keeps this, so damage-wise it has the same raw dps but that huge tracking bonus. Too bad it's going to be too expensive to use the way it's intended to be used.

HURRICANE FLEET ISSUE
Over its regular version, this ship has 8 high slots, two utility slots, slightly more mobility and fittings, while the role itself doesnGÇÖt change. Kind of reminds us of something, but what could that be? Memory must be playing tricks on us.
Cute. I guess you guys think this is funny. You resurrect the pre-nerf Hurricane (minus the full power grid), slap an ugly camo paintjob on it, sell it at 4x the price of the standard 'Cane and expect people to be excited about it?
It probably won't be so funny when you end up having to rework it in the future after your metrics show that this thing is a dog that few will bother flying. It's just not worth the price of admission over the standard 'Cane. It also seems like a lazy cop out after the apparent thought that went into the other Navy BCs.

Can only hope it is a 'whoopsie' coming from the desire to differentiate the hulls .. can't have the same pitiful lowslot count as Amarr after all and by Jove, Gallente cannot exist with less than 4 mids or the necessity of sacrificing damage for utility!
Axe a high or mid CCP, lows are out since you seem adamant to turn everything on its head and give more lows to one of the mid/low races than the pure low race (ref: Mega)
With tracking it doesn't really need the 4th mid and it will merely be used for eWar so if ability to have a cyno/cloak/salvager is paramount, so ...
As for prices, looks good. Enough for them to be used primarily by the moon-rich, FW-alt-users and GTC sellers .. ignore the pleas from the rabble for now .. when/if you get around to limiting LP generation it can be lowered .. right? |
