Well imo the cap usage should be cut in half so it's the middleground in cap use between projectiles and lasers. I'd like to see this change affect all sizes.
Tracking changes on the other hand should only affect large blasters.

Meds could use a lil bit more tracking, and neutrons just cant be fitted on anything, but yeah they're fine, and we wouldn't want small ones changed so that your favourite ship gets knocked off its pedestal? :P but yeah smalls are fine.
Larges, everyone knows about they're faults.

The only reason Maya is citing "only large blasters" is because of the current supremacy of the Claw and the Rupture! While smalls really aren't doing too terribly, meds are in a similar state to larges, PRE-larges getting a fitting reduction. Ie - they perform as badly as large do now, (with as much difficult for the platforms (especially Deimos) getting into range while stll alive, as the Megathron does), but are as hard to fit as large hybrids used to be! Any changes to large blasters must apply to meds as well, and fitting improvements wouldnt go amiss either.

totally agree.
med t2 blasters should also be looked at
they suffer from roughly the same probs. cap use. fitting being the 2 most important ones.

So Neutrons only problems are fittings?
Can TomB lower the fittings on Tachyons too then plz?

If you don't like blasters, then use rails, you ingrates. My blasters work just fine.

i fly apocs and geddens too with t2 large guns and bs 5. and i use a sniper gedden with t2 tach over a sniperthron sometimes. its got good damage, great tracking, much cheaper then a sniperthron. yes you do fit a few RCU. but its a good ship none the less. and ofcourse it totally rapes galante/caldari AF and ahcs at range.
whereas the blasterthron doesnt have any of the safety a sniper like a tach apoc. it cant allign. range is less then 10km. it cant fit any wcs which a sniper can do. its in range to be scrambled by anything and webed. it still dies to ravens which have 10x teh range and 10x teh tank. its not as versitle as a AC tempest. a pulse gedden can alliang since it has 15km with multi and 30km with std. and it is like ur sniper impossible to fit with no fitting mods. but unlike ur sniper it cant actually spare the slots to do taht.

The current state of the rupture is good, but med blasters are also uber weapons if you can use them properly.
Using a gank thorax setup, after taking down a caracals moderate sheild tank, I can take out its armour + structure in 2 volleys. Also, versus a rupture, it cant nos my cap in time before it dies. The medium blasters are nowhere near as fubard as the large, though a little cap reduction wouldnt go amiss.

yet people with lots of pvp eperience and ability to use t2 blasters are spending time and effort to try and fix them. why would they do this unless there was indeed something wrong. and also its not just galante that agree with the need to look into large blasters. lots of minimatar and caldari pilots in many thred also strongly agree that they need to be looked into because atm there is indeed someone wrong with them
imo. they need lowered cpu. much lower cap use. those 2 things alone should do quite a lot. a tracking increase would also be helpfull since orbiting a taget at optiaml makes u miss the target a lot. so blasterthron pilots either fight stationary or orbit at a lot less then amx velocity.

Devs are busy.
There are 4 new bloodlines coming with corresponding rookie missions to break.
No time for no balancing/fixing at all.
And the new trading card game has to be tested intensively too.

Yes please, I'd like to be able to fit Ion Blasters to my Deimos without gimping my setup (like my Taranis or Mega or, well any other blaster ship really).

Meds are competitive. Smalls are more than fine.
A couple of the med-blaster mounting SHIPS need tweaking, but that's another topic.
Ditto T2 amo being crazy-broken - another topic.
Oh and El Yatta? Claws are good for reasons other than blasters being poor (indeed, a Blasterrannis still has a significantly higher DPS). And, for reference, my T1 cruiser of choice is and allways has been the Thorax :P

I'd like to think this is already in the works but that is probably only wishful thinking

simple to do though i would think. one days playing with ships and setups on sisi would do it i would think. and would only take one dev. then just chance the values on the items.
or a simple and more fun way.
get a die hard AC tempest pilot
get a die hard blasterthron pilot
put them both in sisi, strip the temp pilot skills. give him maxed megathron skills. strip the blasterthron piltos kills give him max temp skills
let them duke it out at various starting ranges from 5km to 50km. B-thron should win at 5km, 10km. 15km it should be close but b-thron should win. 20km + temp should win.
the die hard B-thron pilot would do his best to best the blasthron in his tempest and vice versa. perfect balance. then u need to figure in how the changes effect that class of ship vs smaller class ect. perfect ballance.
then the same thing with raven vs blasterthron
then the same thing with gedden vs blasterthron
and when B-throns are done. you can repete the same thing but with temps if indeed AC are being looked at. although imo they are fine.

Just a little less cap use, and a bit more tracking (so I can actually hit what I'm orbiting)
Please?
