Originally by: Aramendel Edited by: Aramendel on 16/03/2007 14:01:02 The problem is more that if you rig your ship for speed you are gonna maximize it. And since overdrives are far FAR more useful to maximize your speed it is pretty pointless to use aux thrusters for speed fittings due to the stacking penality.
There's a reason it's called the "nanoship" not the "overdriveship", and it's all about agility.

The issue is that trackless weapons (domi/phoon) are imbalanced with Heavy Nos and omgstupid radial velocity. No one worries about nanoravens because they can't reach omgstupiducanttouchthis transversal.
Consider adding a sig penalty similar to Gleam on each speed mod and rig. I wouldn't care if that domi or phoon orbitied at 2000m/s if it's sig was around 1000. It wouldn't punish the smaller ships (fewer mods, smaller base sig) but would help balance out the larger ships that don't use tracking for damage computations.

With the changes you basically have a dynamic that looks like this.
MWD = Defense against missiles AB = Defense against turrets
Which existed before except that if you MWD'd fast enough you were invulnerable to turrets too.
I agree that there is still a problem in that there is no manuverability option in order to defend against NOS, since it is neither sig radius, speed, or tracking based.

Originally by: Achalia ...the curse. You nos as much as a nano-bs, at longer range, and your drones do more damage...
WTB: 5 medium drones + bonus which do as much dps as 5 unbonussed heavy drones
(nevermind that + 4 torp/cruise or 5 heavies WITH a bonus)
If i had my way you could have it on a Myrmidon. ---------------------------------------- Thou Shalt "Pew Pew" |
