I honestly would rather see a more unique bonus on the tempest or at least an application bonus instead. An application bonus would also match up with the other (3?) attack battleships having bonuses similar. |

What seems obvious from an objective standpoint, is that the entire system of weapons calculation has become massively convoluted by years of adjustment, such that even CCP can no longer gauge the outcome until they've had time to stand back and see it for themselves. This clearly says the people who should have control don't have control, at least not to the extent they need to have. And then after making adjustments they're up against players who will find every which way they can to adapt to and circumvent those adjustments. It's a little bit like trying to sculpt custard. Nice idea, but the whole thing is eventually going to largely regain its original shape as before. You can also see how massively convoluted it is by reading the vast number of diverse points being made by players, all of which are either right, wrong or at some place between those two extremes, simply because the game accommodates that kind of infinite diversity. It just means that there really can't ever be a definitive solution to anything under the current system. So ultimately, you can only do one of two things : rethink the entire system from scratch, or just leave it alone. Fiddling with it may justify paying some clever people good salaries, but it only ever generates more work for itself that way and in the end, just leaves heck of a confusing mess. You are describing how most R&D departments work. Just look at how early space programs worked. There were dozens if not hundreds of failed launches and modules throughout the early stages. And even today there are still bugs and problems. You don't wait until you have a perfect solution. Nothing would ever get done.
And starting from scratch is essentially harder and more prone to failure than tweaking and adjusting. |

Also how about those drone related implants that seem to not exist. Ya, some "balance".  Edit: Lets not even mention that drones are destructible or that they have to travel to target (aside from sentries). 2% per mod on a damage mod is hammered now? What was it called when HML got nerfed then? So you are saying the nerf is not going to effect said ships? Okay. Nope. He questioned your use of 'hammered'. |
