Will you please stop moaning about EW? You're not better at EW because you happen to have a caldari ship, what you do have is more possibility to do EW, and the trade-off is having lousy low slot space.
Disproportionately bad L hybrid guns are not a compensation for ³ber caldari ships, because my friend, gallente ships are also supposed to use hybrids, where do they deserve this bad treatment (besides having french origins)?
Agreed. Fixing L hybrids (Coming Soon, with Tech II is the current story) won't make Calidari much more powerful in PvP than they already are. The boost to missile strength and the effective operation of all mid-slot EW has done it. Now if cap neuts worked without occasionaly CTDs and Nosferatus had reasonable range and took a decent ammount from the target, others could get into the act.
As it it Calidari ships are the best for all types of PvP, agent missions and fast travel. Amarr are best for rat farming, as part of large blockades and good for mining. Minmater are good in medium and large sized combat and are fast. Gallente are useless for anything but mining since they are all turrets and drones, with hybrid bonuses.
The Dev chat said they've be fixed with Tech II. Does that mean that current Hybrids will be fixed at that time, or that Tech II hybrids will be better balanced?

kinda silly since they had the time to tweak energy and projectiles a few times now. why do we have to wait that long?

Am i hearing right here? Do you get 600+ hits with most guns?
What sort of damage would you be happy with from the battleships? Because to me it sounds like 600 is a little excessive, that is 5-6 shots to destroy a cruiser, which is one volley no?
I think these guns sound a little lame (in a very short battle type way lol)
Would be interested to know what hits per weapon you are getting in your battleships, and what you consider a fair amount...

why the hell call it diff type of ammo? when all it does is hmm range? shouldnĘt range really be ON THE GUN!!! you dont put different type of bullets in a rifle and it goes different ranges LOL, you put diff shapes and diff gun to get diff range dmg, accuracy etc..
CCP went all wrong on us... and that is proven with projectile ammo... that they share same type of names but proj does different type of dmg.. and hybrid only does 1 type of dmg.
Actually different bullet or warheads do perform differently when fired out of the same cannon. That is why there are various ammunition types for say a tank, and it has to have different ballistic solutions for each ammo type.

Simple facts :
1) I get roughly 50% more DoT out of large lasers than large hybrids (blasters excepted but they are ganking weapons only);
2) I have better hybrid skills than beam skills;
3) I don't have to fill every spare slot with some sort of tracking mod to hit consistently with large lasers. Try hitting consistently for decent damage with 425's that way. Doesn't happen.
We all know they're b0rked. We all know they ain't gonna get fixed anytime soon too. So forget Gallente battleships for anything other than PVP ganking*, npc hunting or mining.
* They need support at this too as even with blasters you can't deal enough damage fast enough and web/warp the target. I guess some of you may be able to but if you took your skillset and transferred it to another race's BS you'd be quite astounded what it can do.
Edit - nobody flying Caldari ships can moan cos you have missiles. I mainly fly Caldari myself now but Gallente BSs are a waste of space for the amount of cash they cost. Needs fixing.

I'm glad everyone thinks hybrids suck. Now when i go against a pker with a caldari or gallante ship i know i can kill em faster then they can me. I know i do as much dmg with my hybrid Rail Gun setup as i did on my other account in a apoc with 4 to 5 tachs doin 250 to 600 per shot per tach. You dont have to agree with me on this, but I like the dmg i do with my rails. Have fun putting minmitarr and amarr crap on your caldari and or gallente ships.

I must agree with Kane on this one.. My 425mm Rails are pathetic.. my gunnery skills are practically maxed out along with a couple of tracking mods and damage mods (2 of each) my damage is still pathetic compared to the 2 Tachs i use.. even Mega Beams are better than my 425's with AM ammo... not to mention the ammount of room taken up my Megathrons cargo hold..
I can quite easily destroy another mega with lasers and some Cap Boosters fitted compared to the damage i do with my 425's.. if the thing i am shooting at moves faster than 100m/s i cant hit it for s**t !
I must admit that buying a set of Gaus 250's it much more appealing than using my currently patetic 425's.. although i must admit that the heavy neutron baslters are very nice at about 7km with AM ammo
I dont think it is a question of making rails "uber" but of balance.. the combination of ridiculously low tracking speeds and the size of ammo make hybrids (well large ones anyhow) almost not worth the hastle..
I will be swapping to Tachs and Mega beams today..oh and i have 8 Tachs on sale in Korama if anyone is looking
Just my 2 cents..
