I really don't understand why CCP is nerfing fighter bomber scanres. It's an awful idea, the point of a super in 2015 is to kill capitals, supers, and structures. This isn't even exceeding their role, it's just a pointless nerf. We'll still be able to lock, hold down, and shoot a capital, it's just going to take way longer, and render fighter bombers even worse in a high-tidi supercarrier fight situation, as they'll take ages to lock. You are literally reducing the scanres to ONE TENTH of what it was originally, and it's going to apply damage to capitals. It's mostly just an annoyance more than anything, but it's going to make tidi-laden supercapital fights even slower with applied DPS, further cementing doomsdays as the quick way to clear a field of capital ships.
Could we at least get some sort of clarification on why this is happening?

that is probably a better idea, I'm assuming the main reasoning is that it is easier to change 8 numbers in the DB than implement anything else though.
I'll join the chorus asking CCP, don't take my fancy names away from me!
In the name of the Limos, the Malkuth, and the Arbalest, so help me pod

It's a really bad idea to make bad game mechanics so you don't need to fix bad code. |

allow them go to highsec just disallow using fighters/siege/triage in highsec and reduce dps by 50% tank too. what else? allow capitals to run lvl4 missions . more capital losses , more credit card usage |

Some sort of Highsec effect nerfing the ships ability to operate would be pretty nice in exchange for a decent travel route. Considering the previous nerf didn't really take into account sub-caps can move through high-sec just fine.
That being said, Dropping the tank down to 50% when in highsec would generate some nice losses :D |

You do realize that fighter bombers cannot hit subcaps for damage at all, right? I'm not talking about fighters, which you'd know if you read my post, but fighter bombers. Fighter bombers are designed to hit capitals, supers, and structures, and that's all they can reliably hit and kill. |

What!? A supercarrier gimps it's tank and it's able to do damage!!!
Holy **** guys, #nerfsupers.
Next up, let's nerf t2 ammo. If you fit t2 ammo, you can't fit tank/defense modules! |

I somewhat doubt that, given that tracking along won't help with the actual dmg applied, given the "torps" the FBs use need a big Sig radius to actually work.. so the BS was hardwebbed and hat painters on it like there's no tomorrow, but also, afaik FBs have a hardcoded feature not alowing them to do thier full Dmg on everything not Cap sized, but that could be wrong from my side, might take a look into that one later.
Also, where is the Nerf here? All it does is basicly delaying the first salvo about what.. 5-10 seconds? |

Multiple target painters also have diminishing returns. Tracking computers don't affect fighter bombers as they're missile based, not turret. |
