Lasers can be tracking disrupted, optimal disrupted, and neuted.

Autocannons can be tracking and range disrupted.

Blasters and rails can be tracking and range disrupted, as well as neuted.

But missiles? Nope. No form of any effective e-war against missiles. As long as you're in range, they hit, they do damage, and they kill. This is unbalanced, especially with the introduction of new launchers.

Also, don't say "ECM" or "sensor disruption" because those apply to ALL hulls, not just missile boats.

Can we get a Tier 3 BC that can use missiles too?

Let's swap the Naga out for missiles.

This was a better idea before RHML were on the table. If the Naga couldn't fit them, then it might still be viable but I think some folks would cry foul if it could because it would be so much more versatile than the other ABC hulls.

Will you also be implementing rapid cruise launchers for the Phoenix?

Let's swap the Naga out for missiles.

Looking at eve-kill's top 20, which as we all know is a perfectly accurate representation of ship balance and Eve , then we see that the Naga is the most popular ABC. So it's not a good idea to make it a missile boat, it'll just annoy people.

Instead, let's make the least popular ABC into a missilespammer. That's the Oracle.

Heavies were nerfed to bring them in line with medium long range turrets.

Medium long range turrets were buffed.

See the problem? RHMLs will shoot heavies, and heavies still suck.

It's reasonable to buff heavies to pre-nerf levels in light of the medium long range turret buff, and then worry about balance for these new turrets.

Heavies will suck less if we include the missile velocity bonus. I think the majority would be ecstatic with that.

I think the more important piece here would be, re-evaluate HM's, if the conclusion is they are working as intended, then yes, I agree with you. If they tweak them, and these changes effect range, then perhaps something like the vel bonus not being applied makes sense. This being because in both scenarios the end result is similar.

Could we please get an update (yay or nay) on including the missile velocity bonus for RHMLs?

Well, some of us enjoy running missile fits. So here's hoping...

When we get multi-barrel med variant of railguns for Rokh?

Like the dual 250 rails?

quite there are no medium bonused guns for battleships... RHML's are the wrong approach to adding a better tracking easier fitting missile option

Introduce new ammo for cruise/torpedo launchers...

I think I agree. I'm wondering if it'd be better to kill the rapid missile series altogether, and then add tracking enhancers/computers for missiles instead.


I dream of a world where CCP:

- Removes rapid light missile launchers.
- Lets defender missiles switch to target drones in the absence of missiles to hit.
- Adds missile equivalents of tracking enhancers and tracking computers.
- Changes tracking disruptors to also affect missile launchers
- and add two scripts just for disrupting missiles.

Come join me guys, it's beautiful here.
