  Maelstrom is not trying to replace Typhoon. Or Tempest. Its supposed to be different and good at something else than those ships. We just dont know what that is yet. I hope these stats are wrong.
 
 
  I don't mean that it is the new Typhoon because it is trying to replace it.
  I mean that it is the new Typhoon because, as you said "Its supposed to be different and good at something else than those ships. We just dont know what that is yet."
  Ok, so let's see: what would the use of this ship? AC platform? No. Arty platform? We already have the Tempest doing the job.
  Wtf, was it worth to introduce a new BS that has 0,5 (!!!11one) more normalized turrets than the Tempy, is slow/heavy as **** and is 'forced' (if you don't want to waste 50% of the bonuses of the ship) to be a shield tank (the "but it can fit loads of EW" argument does not hold water, because the EW system is going to be revamped) ?
  I, for one, would have loved a MISSILE/ARMOR TANK boat, not this pile of crap.

            Originally by: Jaabaa Prime I've always kept to Minmatar ships, but I think I'll have to finally bite the bullet and train one of the other race's BSs and weapons to lvl 5  
 
 
  I am tempted as well, but I am not going to give up. I am investing bloody months into mastering the Typhoon in all of its aspects and may I be damned and forced to play WoW for the eternity if I don't do it!
 
 
  P.S. It's not like you'll have to spend hours brainstorming about which race's ships to fly (hint -> what race has almost all of the best of everything?)

   Originally by: Tuxford I love how you guys can take stats from a test server that is few months out of date and then panic over them.

            Originally by: Tuxford I would if it was finished, or more finished. Also with SISI not up to date I think its kind of pointless. The blog was mostly about the designs not about stats. The thing is instead of assuming stats and then panic about them you should actually be thinking about what kind of stats they need to have to be balanced.
 
 
  The Maelstrom needs to have 3/4 mids, have 8/7 lows, lose both of its bonuses and gain a 5%/lvl bonus on cruise and torps damage and a 7,5%/lvl bonus on TP efficiency.
  Here it is.
