No seriously , do you remeber which faction rely on drones ? I'd like to know this as well. Which one is relying on drones here? The one with no highslot EWar that it has to worry about and 2 free and open turret/high slots, or the one that has bonuses to the only highslot EWar in game and has to put that in its highslots (in order to actually use its bonuses), not allowing much space for actual guns? I understand the "Gallente is the drone race" idea, but in this case it's just that much more necessary for one to have drones, where the other can get away without it.
well in this case sentinel is massively op
even now if he hits your frig you are out of cap ... permanently, after the buff I am crosstraining to amarr. |

As said it will lead in fw to fact, that i will be either in novice plex or in sentinel in other type of plexes ... this sentinel can actually outcap cruiser in decent speed. Also in frig/frig combat only missile boats can hurt him ...or maybe some buffer fit drone boats, but even them cannot hold him if he is loosing the fight. So we have very small pack of ships which can actually counter this thing, and even them are having troubles. So the way will be to pile on sentinel and hope. Well to be honest, I've been preaching this too. 30km neuts dropping a frigs cap to 0 in 4 neut cycles (for a 2 neut Sentinel, that's 6 seconds) while also having the ability to completely shut down an opponent's weapons *and* do decent DPS thanks to the flight of drones? I'm both looking forward to and not looking forward to this patch. Not that the Keres is any better. It has 2 highs that can be put to guns, and it can scram any frigate at 18km and damp almost any frigate to under 10 (or even 5)km locking range and freely murder it over time.
in reality you usually entering combat in 60% of cap, so it means you will be dead in the water in 4 sec.

The current neut amount just isn't worth it to be good for anything against larger things which makes it practically very limited outside of FW. Additionally why not swap the cap recharge bonus for a optimal range bonus to td's when both the kitsune and the hyena both have range bonuses, and then just make the capacitor naturally bigger/recharge more.
wut wut??? this thing can shutdown cruiser in reasonable amount of time.... |

Garviel Tarrant wrote:I don't mind the ewar bonuses these ships have I disagree however with the massive control bonuses they are getting, neuts, points and webs at really long ranges. It basically lets you do no risk pvp where you just lock down your opponent and slowly kill him. I just really think this will have a very negative effect on the enjoyability of small scale fighting in this game. Also do i really need to point out why ECM at 150 km is a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE idea? Are our memories really that bad?

I just think you could have made them viable through something other than making them better at staying out of danger and screwing you over. The game doesn't need a frigate that neuts at 30 km or one that webs at 26..
I think this change will make small scale warfare less enjoyable while not making any real positive changes to the larger scale. I tend to think that EWAR in general would diversify small scale pvp. These EAF don't look that hard to kill in a fight provided you have a fast frigate to hunt them down. Your fast frigate is double webbed at 26 km, now what?
I am still in noob time of my pvp evolution but with about 40 solo kills I must say, if I will see these on scan, I will probably not fight, because this things can spoil my day no matter how hard I try ;) |
