Use for Abaddon...
H: 8 MDCM II with Veldspar Crystals M: All Cap rechargers L: 3 Mining Upgrades, 4 CPU II's.
Well done CCP - the extra cpu on the abaddon means an extra mining upgrade.... But wait - you can do that on a Rokh as well... Hmmmm.
I cannot think of a single reason why someone would want a Abaddon for pvp, unless they dont have another race's skills. It is just..... just.... dreadful.

Originally by: Frools anyone else get the feeling tier 2 bc are supposed to relive the demand on HACs a bit?  harbinger looks set to do almost 2x the damage of my zealot 
(die faster too of course, but who cares it'll be a fraction of the price!)
The Zealot isn't exactly the most damaging HAS, either. It just do ok'ish DPS for it's class. And the "placeholder" Harbinger had 8 guns, and damage/RoF bonuses. The final version is more reasonable.
I like quite a lot the battlecruisers, with their more than decent firpower and battleship-like hit points, but the battleships leaves me cold.
In particular, the Abaddon looks like it's going to be an Apocalypse bis. All-out DPS is of limited use (gankers will love them, and that's about it). And all-out tank is even more limited, as there's no point tanking if you can't kill. So players are going to mix lasers and projectiles to keep the cap usage from being obscene while keeping as little in the way of firepower.
Well, at least we won't do only EM and thermal damage anymore 
Tuxford, couldn't you give the Abaddon 4 missile slots?

I'm just going to flat out say it: Whoever is responsible for the Abbadon in it's current form has obviously never flown Amarr ships, never flown in fleet combat, and never used lasers. I'm also going to bet they don't even play the game at all except with a Polaris ship.
That's the only explanation I can think of for why the dev in Jita local on the test server could possibly claim the Abbadon is in any way a good ship for things other than padding the killboards of enemies. Sig removed, inappropriate content - Cortes |

/signed Make it happen tux, and ill love you forever
Aye good point.
Just dawned on me I trained for a Muninn to do some missions the other day that wouldnt let me Claymore into the deadspace.
Biproduct of that is I can fly a Sleipnir now.

Why does the Maelstrom have the SAME pg as the Abaddon? Doesn't the Abaddon need MORE grid?
Why doesn't the Abaddon have the biggest capacitor and recharge rate??
How is the Abaddon EVER supposed to tank? Where are the "defensive weapons" that are capless? Why not some missile slots on this thing???
Where is the Harbingers 8th turret slot??? Why does the Drake get 7 launchers + rof bonus and the Harbinger only have 7 + rof bonus? Drake will simply outclass it in every way.
I am so disapointed in the Amarr ships, I can't even express it.

Look closer at the screenshot and you'll se that it's 8/4/6.
Did you really think the Amarr BC would be given 2 more slots than the others?

Harbinger and Myrmidon look nice. Though I'd rather have more lows on the Myrmidon than highs with no hardpoints. 100m^3 and a drone damage bonus seems about right, 125+ or a drone capacity bonus and it starts intruding on the Dominix and Ishtar's turf.
Harbinger's got plenty of laser damage and a drone bay to rival the Brutix. Best of all it's not a big gold chicken.
I won't comment on grid or CPU till I've actually tried to fit them up, and I won't comment on Drake or Hurricane since I don't fly Minmatar or Caldari.

Thanks for screwing the Gallente pilots.
Hyperion - The big Brutix: Less PG than a Mega, an insanely high cap recharge rate, slower than the flying garbage can (Typhoon).
This makes for the following setup:
8x Electrons MWD ; Cap injector ; cap rechargers 2 armor reps ; cap relays
I can think of another ship that would be better with said setup and any other setup you could concieve.
Myrmidon: I might fly this, Brutix + Vexor mashed together. But I'd still want to fly either of the other more dedicated ships.

As the bloke below your post said they (gang assit bonus) are just missed from the description...
So are all the tier 1 versions basically redundant? (except for a slightly better tank)

Just have too see how it pans out. I can't imagine never using the Brutix, the DPS with 7 med TII blasters and 5 med drones is still pretty nice.

Originally by: Derran Is it just me or does 100m3 drone bay on the Gallente BC seem low for it to be a 'drone boat'? It is only 25m3 more than a Vexor.
You cant just take one stat and say its not good enough... you have to look at the whole ship.
I suppose. It is just that 100m3 feels low for me compared to other drone ships. 4 heavy drones is good but that is all you can carry and when one dies, so does your DPS. I'd be happier with 120m3 because at least then you can put some mediums in as replacements and you won't be in the drone DPS range of a Dominix since you wouldn't be able to carry 5 heavies. I like the ship as a whole but it just feels wrong to me as a 'drone boat' with 100m3.

so Tier1 BC's get one gang mod (without those mids slot mods to increase number), Tech 2 get 3 gang mods ... Tier 2 fit 2 gang mods?
and yes, caldari Tier 2 BC >> any of the others, looks far more powerful
not even going to start on the BS's we all know the only one use in fleets will be the Rokh and the gallente one will be used by the up close and personal people, the others will gather dust in stations |

You are wrong. Minma gets new pwnallmobile(Hurricane). Caldari also get pwnmobile but first in their history.
