Firstly, I will add that it takes 2 (with high skills) to 3 damps to bring a target to under 15km targetting range or lower.

Basically its a few setups, that are indeed OVERPOWERED! I even fly one of these setups, I know myself its overpowered.

That setup be, huginn or rapier with dampeners instead of shield tank. This ship can hold a target down from 34KM away @ lvl 4, and dampen them to less than 10KM easy, and deal enough dps on most ships to kill em over a period of time.

Now I've seen them all too often, a mix of rapier/huginn/damp-raven/dictor in a gang, and they are plain hell to fight, in some cases I might as well have been in a hauler.

The other plainly overpowered setup, is the Curse with damps. Completely screws the opponent over unless you were lucky enough to land close to it and engaged asap.

In todays EvE PVP, theres at least 3 modules you need in the mediums to do well solo or in a small gang, they are propulsion/scram/cap injector. Long ranged in fleets, your normally so far away anyway, that 1 damp will screw you from targetting the enemy fleet.

If damps were nerfed to specialised damp ships, well, I dunno. Its just one of those things I guess, damps are definatly overpowered on huginns/rapiers/curses though.
