When you compare CONCORD and T2 weapons you will quickly notice that CONCORD modules offer benefits for people that don't have XL guns skilled to LVL 5, because specialization makes T2 guns better. Problem is that CONCORD weapon use T2 guns as production materials, making CONCORD quite worthless.
There are 2 simple fixes for this : - make T2 specialization affect CONCORD weapons ( lack of skills will have 0 effect on the dps) - make faction weapons fitting requirements, and cap usage much smaller than they are currently
Faction XL weapons should be always better than T2 versions, not because they are faction ones, but because they are now upgraded T2 module.

I'm sorry, I'm not understanding your argument at all.....
CONCORD take a T2 weapon and 'tweak' it so that now it can be used by less skilled pilots. Sounds good to me. Forget ideas of 'upgrade'.
Don't soil your panties, you guys made a good point, we'll look at the numbers again. - CCP Ytterbium

And of all faction guns you can put t2 ammo into them and pew. The only polarized guns that allow you to tank, sounds good to me.

Yes Concord guns are tweaked T2 guns, they allow you to use T2 ammo without having capital guns to LVL5 - but moment you have LVL 5 capital guns, and inject T2 specialization they are worst than T2 guns.
It is not about making them OP, just balancing them in a way that will keep them slightly better than T2 guns all the times.
No industry guy will be harmed in the process as CONCORD weapons require T2 gun as a production material.

Seems fine by me. You need V skill to load t2 ammo anyway |

Well, subcap T2 ammo requires T2 skills, if that's the same for capital guns, then it becomes a bit weird...

This change is made to XL faction guns - check patch notes. For me faction XL guns should do as much DPS as T2 versions - especially when they need T2 gun for manufacture.

Which applies to every T2 gun vs their faction variant ever? Atleast with Missiles, Faction launchers are better then T2 launchers if you're chucking normal/faction ammo instead of T2 ammo.... |

Tested in game you'll need V skill to use T2 ammo |

Yes T2 XL weapons can use T2 ammo.
T2 guns provide : - better tracking - less cap at cost of slight lower DPS.
Funny thing is that you can buy CONCORD XL weapons cheaper than T2

Or, third option, adjust the recipe to use T1 guns and increase other materials to make up the value difference... |

That would be the better option. The thing is faction guns used to use t1 guns and with the magic of and LP store, you'll get the faction ones.
Polarized guns are faction t2 which is a new concept but the second you fit one, your tank goes nil with a sliver of buffer.
The new-ish CONCORD XL ones are new in the way that they use the much more expensive to make t2 guns to get the faction ones which is also new. I still find it odd why they made those the way the are now :-/
Except for some very edge cases, polarized guns are not very common by design. Faction guns are also rare since the cost in the LP store do not make them very desirable to use and do not warrant the cost since the t2 ammo make t2 guns better in most cases.
I can see now why Anthar is asking for this.
