bc its better that way its not coming out yet, people asked for it, now its a more specialized ship that does more damage. it now has 4 missle launcher slots and 2 turrets for a total of 4. missles will go like 50-60km and rockets the favorite for the ship will go about 15km, with rockets it will be quite a nice shield ship i think ull be able to fit a med shield ext.

still, can you imagine a hawk with light precisions? Speed for what. that thing tanks like hell, and now will start to popping ships out of the sky like there's no tomorrow.

Why?
Because a ROF bonus would seriously overpower this ship 6 ways from sunday. This will be better balance wise.
I am caldari and i would prefer an ROF bonus instead of the damage beacuse it would give me a way overpowerd ship, but am still glad its this way because tehre is going to be enough whinning about it as it is.

Edited by: Sparkis Beutch on 31/05/2006 04:45:43 Hold it a sec - 4 launcher slots? Where do you see that?
Only thing I see in upcoming patch notes is: "The Hawk launcher rate of fire bonus has been changed to missile kinetic damage bonus, and the hybrid optimal bonus has been changed to missile velocity bonus. It also has a higher power output and a new high power slot."
Don't get me wrong - I'd love for this to happen as I'm pure caldari and have focused on missile skills (as well as trained up AF to lvl5 in anticipation of them adding 2 more launchers).
You guys know somethin I don't?

WTH does it have more shields than a harpy on top of a shield boost bonus  Not that I don't like the hawk getting some changes, but WTH are all caldari misslebpats > caldari gunboats, even though they are all higher teir than the missle boats?

We will have to see when it is realeased. I am at work right now and dont feel like checking but teh hawk is slower and has a bigger sigradius then the harpy correct? that means alot as well. But yes i agree the new hawk might be a tad bit overpowerd with a sheild boosting bonus still on it, we will have to wait and see. I know i am planing to ***** out the precision light missiles and blow everything to hell and back.

What made the hawk good was its ability to pick damage type. Now they have made into a slow moving crow. Thats really dull i dont understand this move. Why would anyone fly this over a crow?

how does adding more missile slots reduce the hawk's ability to pick damage type? slow moving crow that can tank like crazy... Seeing the price of the hawk double or triple in a matter of hours after the 4-launcher change was announced weeks back seems to indicate it will be a popular refit. -= Save the Gila!

On another point of the hawk, can we have the 5% shield boost ammount changed to a 7.5% ?

huh? why are you comparing inty to AF they exist for completely different purposes.
hawk will be mean ship now, maybe too mean tbh, in pvp its gonna be a superb small ship killer and in pve i would think it would destroy lvl 3's like no other ship, especially being able to pick dmg type.

Nah it just showed a pretty useless AF getting made useful, and it now has a reason to be bought.
I'd have no problem with the Hawk ending up being 5% kinetic, and 5% all types for dmg, it would pretty much be the same as 10%kin, 5% all others.
