yes exactly as i predicted the green and red stripes make it go faster than the venture 45m/s
although it was a giveaway cos stripes make everything go faster |

I had a poke about online for information, is this the first tech two ship introduced since Trinity? That's six and a half years. Do AT prize ships 'count' as tech two or faction?

Awesome job on this one CCP, thanks for giving lowsec and FW the shaft again!
there's no stab bonus. |

i'm not trying anything. there are already covert ops ships in the game, with three lows, which farmers don't bother using. |

But the Venture is a common ship among the farmers; they tend to mine while farming. If you give them the ability to use a covops cloak and get an even better total stab count, do you really think that's going to reduce the farming, or make it any easier for real FW types to shoot them down?
i don't even remember if complexes have asteroids in them. i do not care if a farmer scrapes an extra million isk's worth off a rock while they bore themselves and everyone else to tears. i imagine the majority of farmers will continue to use the minimum-skill minimum-cost cloaky stabbed atrons and ventures.
fw plexing (still) needs attention but i feel that shouldn't stop us getting a new spaceship that's unlikely to affect plexing meta in any meaningful way |

okay. but i still feel it's better to ask for plexing fixes than ask for a mining ship of all things to be balanced around plexing meta
we have a whole new set of csms to write angry letters at |

I'm glad you're still looking at factional warfare plexing, but I don't like the sound of just nerfing the cloak. Isn't it still possible to set orbit at the very edge of the capture range with a little experimentation? Watch Dscan, turn away from the button a little, cloak. It'd only take a moment. Even if that was too difficult, the problem is that it's more effective to bore away an aggressor than engage them. We'll go from watching someone cloak in a plex to watching someone warp away and cloak. And noone wants to run down a timer that the other faction almost completed
Also the cloak has other valid uses besides 'hiding' that suddenly are invalid
e: although. it's bad for me to assume that just because the cloak will be invalid, that there will not be other changes. i'm sorry and am looking forwards to seeing a proper announcement soon |
