Edited by: Sniser on 26/10/2006 12:04:26 abaddon and maelstorm have the same powergrid while pulses and beams need more powergrid than AutoCannons and Artillery. So abaddon will help if their cap or cap recharge were increased a bit. Cap goes down too fast

this is not true. Im happy with abaddon if it had a bit more powergrid than maelstorm and it had a bit more Cap and Cap reg to help firing the weapons

You are in the vast minority. The amount of whining on the forum is clear evidence. One post by you does not stand up to the hundreds of complaints lodged thus far.
And to look at it objectively. How much would you need to boost Abbadon cap to be viable? Enough to be able to fire it's guns continuously? There's no way in hell devs would ever give it a base cap regen of 60cap/s with max skills. Would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath...
Im not speaking about be able to fire guns continously maybe for 1 or 2 min more. And enough powergrid to be able fit guns. Armor rep and turret rigs(they use pg). A bit more cap helps a lot when you use cpr.
We may have to use cpr to be able substain shooting our guns but the other races will need use RCU to be able fit turret rigs since their will dont have enough powergrid to do it. I think this is called balance...

Originally by: Nyxus Edited by: Nyxus on 27/10/2006 18:44:10 @ Maelstrom: Kaylana and Grim have it right on target. Give it +dam and +10% shield hp per level to tweak it so it is balanced and interesting.
The Abaddon, as Uldyr & Crew have already pointed out, the overall ship concept needs a slight rework. I agree with them, they are right. +dam over +rof for starters. But aside from all that, it has another issue that is just as pressing.
ABADDON NEEDS A GRID INCREASE FROM 21000 TO 24000
While Megabeams and 1400mm arties have the same grid, so the Maelstrom and Abaddon need the same grid for guns, the Maelstrom is a shield tanker (it has more CPU) and the Abaddon is an armor tanker. As such it should have more pg.
Furthermore, 24000pg would allow the Abaddon to fit a full rack of Tachyon IIs @ AWU 5 with 300pg left over. That is balanced. Geddon/Apoc need 2 rcu IIs just to fit Tachys. Abaddon should be able to do it slightly better since it seems to be designed as a fleet ship.
Forcing an armor tanker to have the same PG as a shield tanker when fitting comparable weapons does not make sense, nor is it balanced.

i hope they hear you. I couldnt say it better
