Reaver Glitterstim wrote:Stork looks a bit overpowered. It towers over the competition with its high shield hit points and robust mid slots, a trait which is poorly balanced by its few weaknesses: it's much less agile but otherwise its attributes don't seem to line up right.
I suggest either cutting its shield hit points by 50 without giving it anything back in exchange, or reduce its max velocity a bit and cut its scan resolution further.
A way to add some racial flavor to these ships--change the damage skill bonuses slightly:
PONTIFEX Amarr Destroyer per Level: 12.5% Bonus to Drone EM Damage and 7.5% Bonus to Drone Thermal, Kinetic, and Explosive Damage
STORK Caldari Destroyer per Level: 12.5% Bonus to Missile Kinetic Damage and 7.5% Bonus to Missile EM, Thermal, and Explosive Damage
MAGUS Gallente Destroyer Per Level: 12.5% Bonus to Drone Thermal Damage and 7.5% Bonus to Drone EM, Kinetic, and Explosive Damage
BIFROST Minmatar Destroyer per Level: 12.5% Bonus to Missile Explosive Damage and 7.5% Bonus to Missile EM, Thermal, and Kinetic Damage
Reaver, as much as I admire your enthusiasm can you give me a minute to take a look at them first?

By fitting 2-3 links, you've also beaten the hull trait of *can fit one warfare link*. I thought it was made clear earlier on in this thread that they were like T1 Battlecruisers - they can fit one link. Theoretically, they could fit command processors to fit more links, but the fitting costs for command processors make that unlikely on these ships. 2 links fits without any fitting mods. a fitting mod will let you fit tank(to some degree). the trick will be to get 3 links on this. its just a cheap throw away booster that if lost doesn't remove sp. push more people to always have there favourite links
The Pontifex and Magus can fit 2 without the processors but you could always have a buddy and have another two links in your gang. I am not keen on dropping a gun for a link but I leave that up to you.
If I am not completly of they should cost around 40-50m and you can kill tech3 destroyeres with them - I like.

TarPalantir I wrote:Tar-Palantir has two comments he'll share. Both are trying to be "big picture" - hopefully they are useful to readers. -snip, lots of valid concerns-
I see what you are getting at but you also have to look at some other "details".
Last night on SiSi I saw the first iteration of the "new grid" which is far larger than our 250km grid "bubble" without grid-fu. The new grid on SiSi exeeds 1000km.
Now imagine when the combat carriers with their Battlestar Galactica squadrons are messing with ships from 500km range you really want to have a tool to get there and deal with them.
Another thing could be the monster range on XL-citadels that hurt you from 700km away - scary things are happening.
I say nay to allowing mjds in highsec!
I also say nay to removing NPC stations before someone gets funny ideas.

I guess the Caldari one had its name chosen last and you'd run out of beer and couldn't be bothered thinking about it. Or the beer really took over and you thought Stork would be a good name, in comparison to the other 3.
Sgt, at least it is a bird. Caldari ships have a long tradition in giving their birds a bird's name.

aldhura wrote:What about an ore T2 destroyer that gives mining boosts to the roaming gangs of gas miners :)
These do look good, be nice if they had a speed bonus while cloaked so they can sneak up on things like logi\EWAR support instead of the MWD bonus.
Hmm.. nobody is stopping you from fitting mining foremen links on them.

Hmm.. nobody is stopping you from fitting mining foremen links on them. bonus will be less as it does not give specialized bonus, if PVP ships can get bonuses from destroyer i think it is only fair to give miners something equally good.
Maybe but you can get +18.75% yield with one tech2 link on a Ferox, take it or leave it.

remove ceptor bubble immunity
No worries, I believe CCP Rise hinted that he is working on something link-related. So far we know that it will be done. What I can guess ahead is that we won't get any of it in 2015 so next year will be my guess, when is unknown so don't hold it against me.

Last year I made a suggestion to remove now very useless attributes from all missiles and it was shut down and I declared certifyable.
Doesn't sound so terrible anymore does it? And who could have predicted that a few years ago.. I DID.

Rowells wrote:what happens if two MJD activate at the same time? is it just a random split bewteen the two? or is there always and order of operations?
Two buddies of mine did try this out on SiSi and this daisy chaining works in order of activation. We did was we were aligning to a celestial and the one in front activated first, then I and then the other missed it but we were already 200km from where we started so it does work with timer ticks and in order of activation.
So if you need to jump someone 100 to n+100km you can do just that.

Mr Mieyli wrote:I honestly don't understand the thought process behind these new MJFGs. It seems to me that there has never been a "why" for these modules; what problem do they solve? I mean what kind of balance is there in being able to daisy chain these things? I can now move any arbitrary distance I want in any arbitrary direction as long as I have enough of these ships, and we have seen time and again that eve players are good at massing together ships.
Sounds like everybody at CCP has got caught up in a weird internal language where "emergent gameplay" is an excuse to design something that you don't even know what it's for. Seriously the first stage of a design is deciding what the new thing is for. I get that you want to give us tools but they need to still fill a purpose and they still need to be balanced. After 10+ years in existence it's getting hard to add new roles to eve, focus on balance first and then if we still need new ships we can add them.
I see tons of use cases for them and most of my fellow peers know them too. Your lack of vision a use for them doesn't invalidate the uses for everyone. Just give it a few months and there will be many use cases even you may develop.
And all this becomes clear on Dec 8th.

A simple risk vs. reward equation:...
What would the "reward" be?
There seems to be a misunderstanding of risk versus reward here. Risk being you undock. A proper reward for the risk of undocking is a faction, deadspace or officer module or isk payout.
A killmail is not a reward.
