I hadn't even noticed that.

OP, why would anyone ever fly anything that isn't a CS under your proposal?

If you have any better ideas, I'm all ears.

Before I started training for CS last year I wasn't aware of PYFA or EFT and so I just went on here say as far as my training went. Now a year later and having max out skills for the Astarte, I've been EFT warrioring like mad to find an appropriate fit for the Astarte to run Level 4's in and later C3 WHs. But to my immense frustration, I can't find a fit that is anywhere close to cap stable with 2 med reppers unless I fit 6 darn cap mods whereas only 3 is needed for the Deimos. The Deimos has the same 4 mids and 6 lows slot layout as the Astarte, gets higher speeds, lower sig and almost twice the cap recharge. I find this to be a huge oversight on CCPs part in not properly balancing CSs after the HACs got their delicious buff. So I propose to CCP to please continue balancing the higher class of ships. SInce my last proposal for CSs didn't meet with favorable response, I've proposed another simpler one aimed at the root of CSs lacklusterness compared to the HACs.

Give the shield CS more ehp so they can be used in a big fleet situation and everything is fine.




That is why I tell everyone to stay away from CS and Leadership skills unless they are willing to invest 1.5years into something that is not very big on action.
CS are by definition very special ships. They were never intened for PVE and as soon as you fit them for their job which is to give fleet boost they will loose their dps. That is why a lot of fittings have only one gun or missle launcher and the highslots full of utility modules smartbombs, probe launchers, entosis links or cyno generators.

So I guess you skilled for the wrong ship but that is not CCPs fault.

It's no one elses fault but CCPs as far as I'm concern because they didn't finish what they started and that is balancing out the remaining ships, not just HACs and below. The CSs needs help or CCP needs to make proper T2 Heavy Assault Class Battlecruisers that are COMBAT focused that don't have crappy role bonuses.

I liked the general idea until I saw this. After reading that I am on the edge of reporting your post for trolling attempt.

Can you read?
Is it called Commandship or is it called T2 Heavy Assault Class Battlecruisers.
What do the bonuses tell you? That it is a high dps and high tank ship or that it is a ship designed for fleet boost?
You want a PvE ship take a faction BC, a Marauder, a faction BS or BS they all have good dps and good tank.
You skilled the wrong ship because you did not bother to inform yourself it is your fault and now you can decide to take it or cry .
The chance that CCP will add a new ship that is called the T2 Heavy Assault Class Battlecruisers and adds a new skill for that is higher then that they will rebalance the CS so that you are happy.

This is just funny by now.

Ahh whatever, I'm gonna take a break from this game and play Star Citizen. Until they properly rebalance Command Ships or come out with T2 Assault BCs anyways.

No to 4x DPS bonuses in the form of any 75% ROF bonuses. ROF bonuses scale ridiculously quickly, as they divide the DPS by 1-ROF%.

Each neutron blaster with void on your proposed astarte would be worth 312.4 DPS before damage mods, for a massive 1249.6DPS before any modules other than the guns are fitted. With 3 faction magstabs, assuming that I am remembering right and they aren't stacking penalized with hull bonuses, you end up with 2184.6, which puts this thing on par with a vindicator with 4 magstabs, 6% for ROF and LHT, and a t2 burst rig. With the same sort of 4 damage mod, 6% implant and t2 burst rig, it pushes an absolutely astounding 2798.4 DPS. Lovely.

Actually I like to make another thread with a new proposal, but can't until the ISD close this one out.
