I think the sacrifices requied to fit one of these modules pretty much balances out the advantages.
a MJD fitted CBC/ABC has the GTFO ability but almost always must sacrifice a web to fit it (along with tank/gank/projection).
Sniping ABC's will usually have on grid tactical warpin's that they can warp to to bounce around the grid. The only change here is that they can now do it (once every three minutes) if some one puts a long range point on them or bubbled.
All this really does is make frigates very relevant as they will be required to get that hard tackle.
This is good for the game. |

Yes, it is better because there's more diversity. If you can't see that you were part of the problem Nice strawman, it's not the only way to play but it will be the way to play if you want to attack a BC, assuming he fitted MJD. Great nonsense you spewed. Ibasically did nto flew BC. And no we do nto have more diversity now. The diversity of things we kill in high sec (and we are among the ones that kill the most ) droped DRAMATICALLy in the last 1 year. There is no reason to use anything larger than a Cruiser in small scale warfare now. Peopel in fact use mostly T3 with warp speed increase because warp speed is one of the most relevant things in game now!
So you see less drakes and canes (just 2 ships) and you se a lot more cruisers now , and somehow you explain that as being less diverse.

Which is one of the reasons I suggested the jump range should be reduced by 25-50%. Have a DIC burn 50km from the fleet in the direction they're aligned and bubble up where they'll land. A good kiter can also burn in the direction they're facing when they active the MJD and keep tackle when they land (pro-tip: can't warp while the MJD is cycling). You could also throw one day old Slashers at them. |

CBC will be ok with this, as stated earlier it's a bit of a funky buff but I'm fine with it. ABC is different, that'll just create more problems than it tries to solve mostly because they don't need any help in the first place AND because they're capable of long range sniping.

Its still ridiculous. A ship can change align in way way less time it takes you to burn around to that spot.
Its basically a button that says "press here to exit fight" against any longpoint ship |

Yes. Now brawlers can make sacrifices for GTFO ability, too. I still think it should be reduced to 50km range and 6 second spool-up, giving skilled kiters with OH T2 longpoint the ability to keep point after the jump. |

That is the entire point.
A brawler can defeat a kiter through good piloting. You can play the game well, slingshot the enemy, and kill them.
There is no counterplay to mjd besides ramming the enemy using it.

Which is why I said 25-50% reduction in jump range and spool-up would be better and more fun for everyone. |

There is, it's called scram. Nano/kiting is no different from folks who years ago used WCS in their pvp ships. Your kiting ship works just fine but it might not against the few BC you run in to, surely this is the end of the world. |

Ok. So lets I am in a myrmidon. You are in a stabber. I chase you trying to scram you. I tank your entire dps on a single rep, while cap stable
Now lets say Im an idiot and I burn out every single active module on my ship and dont micro any of my drones and you kill all of them. Do I not deserve to die? Do you not deserve the kill? |

If you're flying in fleets, there's no reason not to have newbros in Slashers with scram or at least a few DICs that can burn in front of their fleet and bubble. God forbid kiters have to commit something, too. |

Lets say it takes 10s for a fleet to completely reverse its align. How far can your dics burn in 10s?
Also few vs many is a common situation. |

Here's how it is right now;
Because I opted to fit for kiting I thus opted to have an advantage against most ships and strategies, I can pick and choose the majority of my engagements (until I run into a faster ship). I can choose to attack you and I can choose to disengage whenever I want to and you certainly won't catch me. YOU don't get to choose anything; you're too slow to catch me (because I'm not stupid enough to fall for a myrm trying to slingshot me). In short I have ALL the advantages and if I'm in any danger of losing my advantages I'll just GTFO.
I'll either win or I'll draw You either lose or you'll draw
With MJD I still have all the advantages against the most ships and strategies, just not against MJD fit BC. Holy ****, there's something that has a counter to my uber kiting. THIS WILL NOT STAND!

Have several DICs spread around the fleet? Primary something without MJD like logi? Position a Lachesis so you keep point after the jump? |

They are in a weird middle spot like dessies.. but they are still excellent bang for buck when you consider the dps/tank they bring to the field for that amount of isk. Really? They don't do more DPS than cruisers, and don't really tank much more. I can count on one hand the number of times I have seen someone flying a BC while soloing (not counting ABCs), and I can't remember the last time that I saw a fleet of BCs. You can solo most BCs in a thorax without it being a particularly challenging fight. You must be living in an alternate version of eve where everything we know is flipped on it's head. |

Its not that hard to combat an MJD. You dont even need an inty, a cruiser with a long point and a MWD can reach a MJD BC that has just used it with enough situational awareness and dedication. Everybody is freaking out and I dont think most have stopped and considered how easily BC's will still be able to be caught and destroyed. Its just another tool in the toolbelt of the brawler to use in case things go **** up and like any good tool it is situational. Stop crying cause now the slow BC has an option to GTFO just like a kitey ship does.

That being said, I do think the range of these mods need to be altered to make BS's stand out above BC's. Despite BS's having come a long way, more reasons to use BS's are always needed.
