the third bonus is the cap reduction you had to reword that to change it to resistance what was the point in that?
the rev and phoenix both have bonuses that are there just to be effective with their own weaposn(rev more so than phoenix) thats the issue
one of the main things ppl were hoping would be fixed with the rev when the rebalance came was that damn 10% reduction
right now gal/minm get double damage and a tank bonus
caldari and amarr get a damage and a tank bonus and then a bonus just to make their guns work

All this depends on how much damage the guns actually do, they have all been rebalanced. And T2 ammo has been brought into the mix.
Don't complain about the bonuses until you have actually run the numbers. Last time I saw the numbers, while they were still in development, they were like this. Using T2 Siege, T1 Ammo, T1 Guns/Launchers, 3 T2 Damage Mods and Max Skills:
Revelation Short Range Guns = 6979 DPS Moros Short Range Guns = 7677 DPS Naglfar Short Range Guns = 7677 DPS Phoenix Short Range Guns = 6979 DPS
Revelation Long Range Guns = 4653 DPS Moros Long Range Guns = 5118 DPS Naglfar Long Range Guns = 5118 DPS Phoenix Long Range Guns = 4653 DPS
Revelation High Angle Guns = 4653 DPS Moros High Angle Guns = 5118 DPS Naglfar High Angle Guns = 5118 DPS Phoenix High Angle Guns = 4653 DPS
I think these numbers look about right - 700 DPS difference for more tank.
Don't forget also that the 4% armor/shield resists is like an extra free low slot, which could be used for another damage mod.
Lastly, there is also the fact that the dreads with double damage bonuses NEED the dread skill to LVL 5 to be good, because at lvl 4 they lose a LOT of their bonus. Rev and phoenix at lvl 4 dread skill will be not far off on damage, making them much more new-player friendly.

Understood about not being able to refit with a weapons timer, if the intention is to remove refitting in PVP. The refit change is clear in the patch notes, but no mention of the specific modules generating a weapons timer without aggressing another player or structure.
However the weapons timer ruins the use of Marauders in C4/C5 space, for example, which need to be able to refit during PVE. I would expect this would also cause problems in the new wormhole escalations after going into Siege/Triage, and L5 missions. There are a lot of PVE applications where refitting in space is essential.
Can you please explain why it is intended these modules generate a weapons timer when turned on? If they are going to attack or rep a player structure, they'll get one anyway. So why not remove the weapons timer on module activation and let the player make the choice on their fitting when they need to commit to the fight? They will already be immobile while the module is cycling. |

I am with Ransu on this. I just flew my alt in a Golem in a wormhole site and figured out you cannot refit in pve scenario.
I will do my homework and re-evaluate options for running c5 with marauder but I cannot see a viable reason that the bastion module should invoke a weapons timer.
The truth is that for both pve and pvp you basically have made pirate battleships far more viable than marauders. They can already out dps a marauder and have far better tank then a marauder thats not in bastion. My only reason for even running a Marauder in pve was for the challenge of running sites that pushed the limits of the hull and using refitting skills to make it happen.
For pve combat refitting is a skill and adds content to your play. Also when the inevitable PVP incoming gank happens you basically have a 99.99 % chance of dead marauder now. With no way to refit for PvP due to you have a bastion cycle up on top of a 1 Minuit weapons timer. Best option would be to just log into your other toon and hope you can get to the fight and take a few out before your rauder folds.
I can appreciate the desire to create more challenging PVP environments in game play but it should not be at the cost of removing lots of PvE content for a certain hull. As someone else had stated. The inability to refit in certain situations also makes certain roles the most boring style of game play and thus removes content from flying certain roles.
Should we all just fit blob doctrines and become F1 monkeys? Because thats what i'm starting to feel here.
Also if people stop flying marauders in PvE say in c5/c4 or in null then you just removed one of our favorite PvP endeavors ! Finding a gang of ratting Marauders and killing them !!!!

They will already be immobile while the module is cycling. I could see the argument that a Marauder could sit in Bastion mode on a gate while waiting out their aggression timer, but they can already do that, and can't drop a mobile depot that close to a gate anyway. And the weapons timer would last longer than the aggression timer or Bastion cycle anyway. So I don't think that's a valid reason for the modules themselves to generate weapons timers.

So I read a couple of the threads on that.
Citadels already solve the problem of station games, since there is the property "Disallow Tethering = True", and you can't dock in a Citadel while you're warp disrupted. Once you commit to a fight on a Citadel, you are committed to finishing it.
So if we want to prevent games on NPC stations with Marauders, surely there must be a way of doing it that doesn't ruin all of C4/C5 Marauder PVE in trade. It's essential that we be able to refit while running sites.
The problem here isn't even combat refitting during station games, since you can't drop a mobile depot near a station anyway. I suppose you could undock a Nestor/Carrier and refit, but that's not the issue here.
If the problem is undocking and going into Bastion mode, blapping something, then sitting in Bastion and tanking until your aggression is up and you can dock, then the solution to me would be to make it so you can't activate the Bastion module within a certain range of a station. Same as you can't activate a smartbomb within a certain range of a station.
Or would it be possible to have the aggression timer separated from weapons timer?

With command destroyers, this now only applies in high sec and as far as I'm concerned screw anyone dumb enough to get involved in station games in highsec, it is another reason to move out alongside crap like neutral reps. There are lots of ridiculous special snowflake sets of nonsense going on in highsec, what is one more? |

In terms of the design logic of the fictional in game dread designers...
Why not make the dread fleet hangers big enough so that a dread can carry a full set of High angle guns?
They can currently fit 2... why not 3?
This seems like a design flaw and doesn't allow a dread to travel then refit for a different role...
If I was the fictional dread designer, I would of prioritized the fleet hanger over a ship maintenance bay.
Come on lads, sort it out.

CC Actually, I think they can now? Packaged guns are only 1k m3 so you can bring out a few spare guns. There's just no bringing them back with you, they have to be disposable. Either that or you win the fight and bring in haulers to scoop your guns. |

Something that you can dispose of when the need arises. As long as you do that you can have 3 spare racks of guns (for mad overheating) or 5 in the Nalgfar. Nothing to worry about. |

I can see the points for and against being able to take a set of High angle guns with you.
However, if dreads are supposed to be "indomitable gun platforms", I can't see why the designers would add a huge hangar for your other ships, instead of room for the actual stuff you need for combat.
Indomitable gun platforms, should have ammo bays, equipment bays and other "gun" related stuff.
It's not as if you can swap out in combat now, due to the weapons timer.
Dreads should feeeeeel like BFGs, they shouldn't be replacement carriers ;) |

Because the Naglfar used to have 2 x Turret Slots and 2 (or 1, it's been a long time) x Missile slots - thus the model can only show 2 Turret models.
When it lost the missile slots the bonus was changed so that it's 2 turrets as like 3.
When they can address the model and show another turret, they will - and the bonus will change as well.
