the pure neut cruor works fine as is. the new cruor with pure neut wont neut anything because it doesnt have 90% webs. simple.
you would have to have 2 nos's to run the 2 neuts the ab the scram the web 1 nos wouldnt do it. so it wouldnt be a pure neut cruor at all.
the idea is to increase the neut/nos bonus to compensate for the moved high which would give it a 50% per lvl bonus but even with that change and with its old power grid back I can't see the cruor match up to the other pirate frigates/sentinel in power just because its power is so very situational and it is mandatory to use A-type nos on it I think it should absolutely get a 75% nos/neut range role bonus
To keep it distinct from the curse and more so, true to the blood raider line and the new nos buff, it could just be a range bonus on nos range and effectiveness.
60% range per level on cruor
20% range per level on ashimmu
No range bonus on bhaalgorn, since heavy nos range is fine.

Getting caught up on some feedback here finally and working on the Cruor a bit as a result.
What I'd really like to do is get the Cruor into a place where it can keep the Blood bonus layout and still be powerful enough to see battle. The request that's been made several times for an extra low makes a lot of sense but I really didn't think it could afford to give up a high (1 turret? only 1 utility high?) or a mid (web bonus) so I was a bit stuck and then I realized there's no reason it can't have 11 slots, so that's what I'm going to do.
We're also going to up the base PG from 50 to 57 and the base CPU from 140 to 150. Finally, to pay a little back for these improvements we're taking one drone away (from 10m3 to 5m3).
Hopefully all in all this gives enough flexibility in fitting to let you take advantage of the slightly divergent bonuses and that lets us keep the faction line in tact and leave the Cruor as a very unique ship in the frigate class rather than forcing it to compete directly with the Sentinel.
Let me know what you think.
Noone but you, is forcing the cruor to compete with the sentinel.
You changed how nos works(old nos) on BR ships, you also buffed nos amount. You/I want to fit nos, but it is useless, when we dont live to apply it. Giving the ship a nos range bonus only, would make us able to at least put pressure on targets cap within web and point range.
The additional low and pg/cpu changes are nice, but just scrap the drone bay altogether and add nos range.
I do not wish to/want to fit neuts on my cruor!!! I do that on my sentinel and as it stands even after this latest "buff", the sentinel is still waaay better in every way, since it caps out any frigate within 30km in 2 cycles and have TD for bigger targets.
Cruor remains pointless.
I dream of a nos range bonus too for the ashimmu. |
