How about if...
They made,
Nos a random cyle affair?
SD`s a randon cycle affair?
Warp scrambling a random cycle affair?
Webbing a random cycle affair?
TD a random cycle affair?
Target painters a random cycle affair?
Get the picture?
I fly 90% Caldari. 100% of the time I used to fit EW. Now I tend to mix it up with dampeners,EW and TD`s.
When I fly through a gate camp, why shouldn`t that scrambler be random? Why shouldn`t that bubble someone set at the gate to catch people be random?
When in a fight, why does NOS always work?
If you applied the same logic to all of the above, as they have to EW the game as we know it would be totally about chance. Not the skills that people have trained long and hard for.
I agree totally, that in a Scorp, I should not be able to hold down 4,5,6 or more BS`s, regardless of my skills,fittings. I should not be able to change the outcome of any engagement totally by messing with this many BS`s, But I should be able to guarantee that any ship I am asked to jam, unless has counter measures, is done correctly.
With the changes to WCS`s, anyone that is fitting them for PvP is putting themselfs in a huge huge disadantage. So we have scrambling almost a certain bet now. ( ok not 100%, but almost). Imagine if that was also random? Doesn`t quite sit straight does it?
So, we all agree that EW was overpowered before, and the majority that use Caldari ships, know we have been kicked in the teeth a little.
What I would like to see is, no other ships but caldari can even fit EW. maybe along the lines of the manticore, not enough grid to fit a CM launcher, but due to bonus it can.Keep the bonus`s as they are already to the mods. Remove the random chance of jamming, and lower ships Jam strength significantly. A Scorp should perma jam a frig, almost always jam a cruiser, and with enough fittings can jam a BS. NOT 5 or 6 as it was before. But heck, in a fleet fight should be able to lock down 1 or 2 for the duration.
This will of course not sit well with many, as they want to fly their frigs/cruisers around, 100% being able to web,scramble,nos,TD,TP without any hinderance to themselves.
Scorp is weak both in dps and tanking, thats the risk we take for flying the best ship in the game for EW, just now needs arranging so it IS the best in game.
