okay.. after comparing alllll the races as i have flown them all... i must say that caldari has it bad.
reasons:

---

I'll actually argument about it. Btw I have two caldari chars, and i think they are a good balanced race to fly.

-missiles are very limited. - Have you ever left the system and bought the other damage types?
-missions take a long time due to defenders/ lack of anti-small ships. - Use torps.
-guns.. dont do enough dps damn it! - Guns do close to zero dps if the range isn't right.
-tanks.. sheild tanks combined with caldari cap doesn't work. - Ever tried using cap boosters? Or passive Drake?
-armour tanking is more efficient/effective! - passive shield tanking is ftw. it doesn't work solo, but where the hell are you expecting to find solo fights anyway?
-no real choice in combat fitting.. - Lack of creativeness ftl.
-The other races all get tackling ability! - Minmatar tech II ships have the same problems. Amarr have very few midslots, the only uber race now again is gallente.
-caldari can't pvp well as minmatar out-damages our alpha, and has higher dps than us! - Since the nano nerf, minmatar is not the race I would ever think of complainin about.
-we cant solo because we lose tank.. which is bad. - Solo's never happen. See above.
-caldari lacks anti-smaller ship capacity! (drones dont do jack!) - I can kill friggies with any ship up to battleship. Maybe you're skills just suck.
-caldari needs loads of training in sheild skills, and missile skills to be even half as effective as oother races! - To use tech II Large guns you need to train tech II small and medium first. To use tech II bs launchers, you need to train tech II bs launchers. Nothin else.
-when will it be caldari's turn for i-win? minmatar had it with nano-fad, amarr had it with gankageddon, gallente had/has the best capital/dps in eve! - Chose a ship and max out the skills for it. Good pilots don't need an I-Win, they kill stuff with their ship of choice.




Don't get me wrong.
I think caldari are far away from being uber. The jammer nurf really made a lot of dedicated ships useless.
Missile dps are not that great.
As said they are slow as hell.
The only caldari gunships that do pretty well are the rokh and the harpy, as the number of guns they carry are correct, not a joke as on the ferox, eagle, moa, merlin.


What i would boost actually is give them more speed so that not any single bs can run away easy from a caldari assault frigate. And give the said gunships the possibility to fit one more gun while havin the same amount of highs.


AND BTW THE WORD SHEILD DOESN'T EXIST IN ANY LANGUAGE I KNOW ABOUT.
