The major changes that I would like to see are an increase in price and a decrease in the effectiveness of oversized afterburners. I don't use oversized afterburners, as a matter of principle mostly, but most of the complaints about the Svipul and Confessor could be solved by that.
I think the Hecate is a thing of beauty and should pretty much be left alone.
I really hope this focus group works out to improve the game significantly.

This is definitely a good idea.

- make all prop mods size specific - nerf all modes a little - nerf all base stats a little - nerf fittings a little - remove 50% damage role bonus - remove T2 resists
so the end result should mean they cant outperform any T2 ships like AF's etc at what they do best but they will still have the adaptability and generalisation that is meant too be the point rather than having stronger than T2 power on top of the T3 design
Your unreasonable hatred for all things T3 has been noted.

Svipul is just way too strong. Not just 10mn Svipuls but also mwd fits just because base speed (speed while scrammed) on prop mode is still faster than frigates so it will still dictate range even in most of those scenarios.
The prop mode for the Svipul and Confessor need to changed to a % increase to speed provided by AB or MWD, and not an increase to the base speed. In autocannon fits I practically never switch to sharpshooter mode or defensive mode. The base speed increase on prop mode helps you mitigate more damage when fighting vs cruisers than defensive mode, and allows for more transversal/range dictation for damage application when fighter vs things smaller than cruisers than sharpshooter mode. The Confessor is only good because you can fit a 10mn ab in the first place. If you fit a 1mn you are just an expensive lossmail waiting to happen. Take it away and the Confessor went from good to lol.
The Confessor is just fine with a 5mn MWD. I've never used a 10mn AB on the Confessor, for philosophical reasons, and I've had plenty of success with it. Perhaps I am doing it "wrong," but the ship really does work without a 10mn AB.

Perhaps I am doing it "wrong," but the ship really does work without a 10mn AB. Maybe but you cannot sig-tank with a mwd. I guess your fit uses pulses instead of beams so being close is what you want. The 10mn beam fit is different to fly that's why I fly it this way. But this is also a matter of taste. How you like to fly and I may be completely different and that is fine. Let's not discuss taste.
Completely agree. Different play styles for different folks.

As a response to a few off topic posts in the thread though, most AFs function very well in FW lowsec if you exclude T3Ds from the equation. They don't need, nor warrant, a buff in most cases.
It would indeed be nice to have an update on this...
CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Ability to fit oversized prop modules shouldn't exist at all IMHO, whether it's about svipul or any other ship in the game. Either soft (e.g. 90% penalty to the effectivness of the module) or hard (cannot fit, period). Otherwise the remaining approach is to nerf PG, which indirectly inhibits other sensible fits - only for the sake of avoiding oversized prop modules. Mass*agility adjustments aren't exactly amazing idea either, as they also (negatively) influence all other stuff that involves mass addition. I kind of agree with this. Make the T3Ds unable to use a cruiser size AB. Then see how they do.
Making propulsion modules size-specific would fix the problems with a lot of ships.
