YES YES, i lied. I know a thousand threads get started every day about ship balancing but why do you think that is? Spot on, theres some serious inbalanaces that could be easily fixed. So heres my 2c. Caldari is what I fly with my main so yes im going to whinge about them and then try to find some solutions. Feel free to post any suggestions you may have about balancing other races/ships/setups. NOTE I dont believe all races should do all things equally, obviously its best for the game if there are different strengths/weaknesses for each race. Also if you simply dont care because you fly another race and are just going to flame away because you feel like a king in your domi then find another thread because i couldnt care less what you say. Constructive critisim kthx
Caldari needs some serious changes made to it. Firstly wheres our solo omgwtfpwnmobile? All of caldari's ships are basically setup to fill support roles, and granted they do a decent job of it. Now thats nice but all we need is ONE solo ship. Drake I hear you say and yeah I've gotten some solo kills in my drake but what about t2 ships other than ceptors? I mean Gallente for instance have like 6 ships that can solo pvp easily, as well as support ships such as the celestis. Caldari hac's are basically a waste of time unless in a gang, and caldari recon's are once again primarly support ships. Its interesting to note that out of all the recons and hac's (other than the zealot) the caldari ones have NO drone bay. The falcon couldnt muster enough dps to kill an ibis, where a pilgrim can eat battleships for breakfast. Clearly I missed something.
Now I guess this is because Caldari are mostly ranged ships, and the range limitations of warp disrupters/webbers means you have to get in close to use them. So here is my propasal: How about some sort of range bonus to warp disrupters on certain ships? Or how about a ship that shines at close range? Considering Nos/Drone boats are all the rage can we please have something that can be a decent adversary within scram/nos range? Thus range accually becomes more important in skirmishes rather than: turn on mwd, approach target, scram, web, activate weapons/deploy drones, kill it, collect loot. Maybe a warp disrupter that has a 40 km range? A Caldari drone boat? (WE HAVE SOME DRONE SKILLS TOO BTW) I mean I can dream cant I?

Let ma handle it.
Where is problem with fitting closerange setup on raven (torps, shieldtank, scram, ab) ? I don't see any problme with that. Sure you hurt your tank to tackle, but thats the cost of picking gang and tank at the same time.
Next part, no soloships.
Hmm, look at afs - theyr kinda nice for solo, and drake u reminded.
Also rokh can do some solo with blasters.
And caldari drone boat, NONONO caldari got smallest dronebays coz they dropped working on drone technologies (read backstories for more details) so caldari droneboat = wrong.
What else..
Ah, do what everyone else do, they want solopvp, they train other race. U already got best pve ships, and if they were the best in pvp also, other races got no sense.
Kthxbye

caldari can do solo pvp. all you need to do is some sort of matari "intelligence" on how to fit your damn ship.
raven is basically the same as a tempest. 6mids and 5lows either allow for takling and a normal shieldtank as well as pwnage power from hell or a real nice armor tank, supported by cap injectors and even some ew (tracking disruptor/damp).
add torps/cruses that never miss and a dronebay that is able to mounth enough scouts to eat alive any frig and there you go bbq.
raven has no shiled tanking bonus so dont whine if you are to noob to propperly fit it armor tanked!
look at matari ships: we have to train 3 weapon types and 2 tank types to be efficient. so crawl outa your shell and train armpr skills ;).

I would love to know how you armor tank a raven like a tempest with 6000 less base powergrid.

You just said that the caldari need ONE solo ship. Then you said like a t2 ship OTHER THAN THE CEPTORS. There's your solo ship. Stop complaining and get a crow. I would if I weren't too busy flying my domi.
