This is not something that concerns me as I do not mine anymore. I was more or less pointing out that this may cause a Sh*t storm of tears when this hits the mining community. As someone who flies armor hulls I do not have enough experience with the other hulls in this balance pass to point out other examples that may need an additional balance pass after this resist nerf. Though I have no doubt that those who fly those hulls will point them out.
I am not the only one in this thread that is wondering why they are doing this as a blanket nerf rather than on a hull to hull basis. I am sure that there are some hulls that were balanced fine with the current resist bonuses. When it comes to suicide ganking I am sure that someone here can point out a situation where this will make it cheaper/easier to take out these hulls. When racing concord I am sure there are situations where there are advantages to only needing two volleys vs three for example. I am wondering out of curiosity if CCP has found the current mining hulls to be to strong?
I see a lot of balancing going on at the same time and currently none of it has made it to test server. Pointing out the mining hulls in particular was more about picking hulls that seem to most easily illustrate the potential issues with a blanket nerf to the bonus.
Why do a balance on hulls that are not deemed overpowered, seems like it may cause some headaches for CCP that could be avoided.
I do like the idea of balancing these resist bonuses though as there are very powerful on some ships. |

Wrong, many a lazy person wants to do something only once rather than have to repeat something because they wasted time doing it wrong.
