I assume the devs are aware of the prevalence of TD condors and other ships. It's particularly evident in Factional Warfare.
With this in mind, it seems maddening that they are considering a nerf to TE's which are becoming somewhat mandatory for certain kinds of PVP. In particular, low sec soloing, or low sec frigate PVP in general.
Suggestions I have heard since the general agreement is this is mostly an issue with frigates using these modules freely include increasing their cap requirement, or fitting requirements (obviously with some bonus applied to the smaller hulls that are supposed to fit them).
Does anyone else think this needs to be reconsidered?

That depends on which scripts are used, but TE's are more commonly fit and more commonly viable to fit. If TC's were mandatory that would be even worse! |

OK. I'll update the OP for those that are not aware of the current metric. |

I.E. they are viable counters to TD's, thus becoming mandatory. You don't seem to be keyed in to the particular issue I am talking about so kindly refrain from posting further. |

It's Amarr EW, after all, and they're the cap race.
This has so far been the best resolution. If you want it, you have to fit accordingly, and it conveniently imposes on kiting fits from using it so easily. |

TE's may well be overpowered but the point of this discussion is that while they are facing a nerf, they are currently inherently valuable in countering an even more prevalent issue, which is the over-abundance of TD fits; particularly frigates in low sec. |
