yeah but at this point the price is worth it... and tbh i would think server load was the real reason for the nerf as much as they claim "afk" gameplay being the reason for the change... There are no stupid Questions... just stupid people... Winter Expansion new ship request |

The only thing I have to respond to at the moment is to confirm that the warp speed increase for the mach is exactly 50% (going up to 3). We'll probably go ahead and list this in the ship traits somehow even though it's just a base attribute since it's so unusual.
Could you confirm what the effective drones of the Rattlesnake is now?
7.5 effective drone as before. formula before balance 5*50% = 7.5 (5*1.25) / new 2*275% = 7.5 (2*3.75) |

CCP Rise, can you please give us the courtesy of a response to feedback on the Machariel? Even if it's a "I'm dead tired but I'll respond to your concerns tomorrow" would be appreciated. Thanks. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

So new battleship thread, many posts and not a single damn post on the frigates for ages.
so in other words the macherial is still unchanged and is no even better at hunting down highsec freighters and keeping them heavily bumped.
as well as station bumping carriers. and bumping hell anything else in the ******* game still. thx for the years ago mention that this needed changing and did nothing about it.
"we want to get rid of 90% webs cuz there to strong and encourage solo pvp" cool so people will still make vindicator videos of themselves killing scrubs. mean while the rest of us who did it in paladins and kronos's will have to deal with it.

Rattlesnake + remote rep + super sentries = The ship can now DRONE TANK! (at least in PVE). =D
This ship seriously needs to put on TQ before someone gets the bright idea to nerf it back down to its current form. Vacuums suck. |

But that's ONLY true for heavies and sentries. It's now worse with mediums and lights. Heavies won't get used because heavies suck (they are too slow and have poor tracking - even with proposed changes) and sentries are only put to good use from domi's and ishtars.
People also keep losing their **** over the missile damage it's getting now. They're missiles, creating an environment where a torp will hit for full damage is about as difficult as it is to get a dread to hit for full. This rattlesnake may have great paper dps, but in practice it's going to be ****. |

[GÇô]CCP_Rise CCP Employee 1 point 138 milliseconds ago We considered a heavy only focus for the ship but as other commentors have said, it would have hurt the ship's current applications severely and we didn't want that. Also, because of the tracking and optimal bonuses for drones on Gallente ships there's still plenty of room for the Rattlesnake to have Sentrys without treading too heavily on the Dominix.
i disagree .. i think you could easily add the missile bonus to the caldari skill .. why not have 2? SOE got tons of role bonuses then split some of the drone HP/damage to gal skill..
on rattle.. well again i think that's wrong having sentries bonused at least to the same degree as heavies .. maybe a smaller bonus if you have too have it on.. Tech 3's need to be multi role ships not cruiser hulls with battleship tank and insane resists ABC's are clearly T2 in all but name.. remove drone assist mechanic. Nerf web strength ..... module tiercide FTW role based instead of tiers please. |

Except the launchers carry more weight than the drones do in terms of DPS. Look at the top of the page for my edit, and please tell me i did my math wrong. I mean really.... I actually hope I'm wrong on this one. |

I know that the Dronebonus on the RS is "only" 275% so Sentries don-¦t get any stronger as they already are. But how about (if even possible) split the Rolebonus to 275% for sentries and 300% to 400% for heavies? They are still slow (though faster then now because of the Drone change), but this would also encourage to use the Rattlesnake for great Damage with Torps ans Heavies in close combat. |

Please, for the love of god, now that you are re balancing it, either put 6 or put 8 guns on machariel, I mean, really, make it even.
Also, special effect channel just to turn of clouds so I can see all the other effects on my machariel and don't have to suffer from cloud fps lag :)

50 drones is 25 guys which is loads better then 10 guys.
so here are the fittings i am thinking of:
high (6): 5 x cruise missile laucher II
1 x DLA
mid(7): MJD sensor booster 2 x Omni II invul II 2 large shield extender II
lows(6): DCU II 3 DDA II 2 BCU II (if it fits if not one and then a PDU II)
rigs: 1 em rig 1 shield extender rig 1 sentry drone rig
Drones: 3 x garde II 3 x Bouncer II 5 x warrior II
not sure what all the stats are going to be but it looks like solid damage and solid EHP. that and have a few carriers around with extra drones will make this a pretty powerfull fleet ship.
im sure you just threw it together but god that fit is terrible |

when you see bonuses like this, like the different bonuses to projectiles and missiles on the fleet issue minmatar ships, don't you ask yourself "why don't they just make these weapons equally good instead?" |

That's not really the point. If you have Gal BS IV on the current version you have100% of drone DPS and 93.33% of max missile DPS. If they put a +55%/level drone bonus on the Gal BS skill and made the missile bonus a role bonus, at Gal BS IV you'd have 100% of max missile DPS but 85.33% of max drone DPS.
5 cruises with CN Scourge do 390 DPS with no damage mods, 2 Garde II with 375% damage do 421 DPS. Swapping the role bonus with the missile bonus means you lose almost three times as much raw DPS from missing a skill rank. |

I could cope with the drone changes but the drone bay reduction simply kills the ship for me.
With all the time it takes to skill up for a BS you should be careful when you mess with it.
Who's using Rattlesnake now? Do you have a player profile for who flies that ship?
Keep that profile in mind when you work on the new specs, please.
I'm also dissapointed with the reduce drone bay and therefore reduced versatility, although I guess I should be thankful it can still use sentries. The missile velocity bonus didn't make this ship too strong either. Nothing needed to be taken away but I suppose it could be worse. I like how he said this with a straight face.
Excellent self control. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Loses ability to field 5 heavy ewar drones. Might be more relevant when/if ewar drones are changed to not suck. Loses 33% damage/hp on light/medium drones. No one uses medium drones. Not much difference between ~130 and ~90 dps when using lights tbh..... Loses 33% range on missiles. Cruise's are never used at their un-bonused max range, although I agree is kinda hurts torps, especially javelin. Thankfully torps are so horrible 90% of rattles use cruise anyways.
Gains nearly 90% more missile dps. This buff alone is worth the rest of its losses. Gains 3 flights of heavy + 2 flights of lights VS 3 flights of heavy + 1 flight of lights. Gains ability to perma RR HALF of its drones using one high slot. Gains cheaper drone costs. 60% cheaper to fill its hold than before and 60% cheaper to abandon a flight of drones.
I'm not seeing this "Dwarfing" you are talking about. Rattle loses very minor things and gains HUGE amounts of important ones. Vacuums suck. |

I think thats to extreme on the Sentry-side, and at least 275% are necessary to confince players to use heavy drones |

How out of touch are you Rise? I mean seriously. Neither need a nerf, I'm glad you didn't nerf the mach, but I hope you understand that the cynabal is significantly more in need of a fix than than the mach. The mach has it's role and no other BS fills it. The cynabal has it's role, and it's filled better currently by the vaga/cerb/ishtar/any t1 cruiser with long range guns.
Seriously...
