Edited by: ArmyOfMe on 02/08/2007 21:01:15 I know your not the one in charge of changing ships on sisi, but seeing as it only took a few days from you were made aware of the problems with the deimos to the ship were changed i would have to say you are the one to thank.
Keep up the good job    
Base speed 205 m/s Mass 11m kg. Also, pg bumped up from 950 to 990.
speed on the deimos with a t2 mwd is now close to 2k
also enough grid to fit a ion setup with a medium nos if you have awu 5
also guess we have tux to thank for these awsome changes, so a big thank you tux

If by "fine" you mean "better than the Ferox and Moa", then, yeah, I agree.
But the Ferox and Moa are probably the two worst ships in the game - heavy, slow and with laughable DPS...

Deimos definately needed a little bit of a speed/agility-boost to fulfill it's role as a Close-Combat-Ship.
The additional powergrid is not really needed for my setups, but I'll take it  .

i fly the eagle myself, i think its fine. i just dont fly it a lot as it fills 2 niche roles.
deimos has always been useless from inception, so frankly, its about time its fixed.

Good think Deimos got a boost, eh? Gallente really needed it, every single one of their ships suck. Its not like the have the best Battlecruisers, or Battleships, or Commandships, or one of the best HACs, or even the best cruisers. 
Now what, I already saw both an Ares and an Eris whine thread, so assuming they boost those too, Gallente will have all of the best ships in the game, or am I missing one?

The Deimos is still terrible because it has to get into web range to do any damage and it cannot fit a web itself. A bit of extra PG and speed will not change this fundamental problem. Just web it and move away.

Its actually quite amusing to see how the devs keep boosting the most overpowered race in the game. If they ain't winning, it ain't balanced.

The grid changes are needed, and a speed boost was too... but 220m/s base? With all those lowslots, you know they'll all be nanofitted.
That said, better nanoships than sitting with dustcovers on.

I think I see the plan now. Nerf all the speedy minmatar ships, but boost some of the gallente ones so they become speedy, and with twice the dps.
I figured the tradeoff for having strong dps was being slow, but seems that no longer should apply. Changes like these makes me wonder if the balancing devs fly anything but gallente.

Obviously... As a Minmatar HAC pilot I can't even fit a tank or MWD together with the Muninn's intended Weaponry (PG issues) but if it was a Gallente ship, the crybabies would have got CCP to give it PG to fit MWD, dual medium reppers and 2 HML ...

Man minmatar pilot whining on deimos new speed? this is pathetic!! Any HALF good vagabond pilot will still be way faster than it, and still have far superior range. A deimos vs vaga duel would end same end they always ended. But now deimos is useful for other things, since it can get close to targets pretty fast in gangs and pull some nice damage.

You are comparing the wrong ships. Muninn is a better Rupture and Deimos is a better Thorax, so those two should be compared.
I just had a look at those two ships at the test server. Deimos has less mass and higher top speed than the Muninn now. Also it has one more low slot than the Muninn, not to mention twice the drone space so it can field 5 medium drones (muninn can field 5 lights).
Its also interesting that the blaster deimos has 10 km longer targeting range than the artillery Muninn, and Muninn gets bonuses to projectile optimal (instead of falloff which would be much more appropriate) but whatever...
At least the Rupture and the Thorax is still balanced. Wonder when that will change as well.
Originally by: ArmyOfMe dont worry jim, in a week ill be done with minni cruiser 5 so i can start to whine about minni ships needing a boost as well 
I usually try to stay out of balancing discussions, so I wont be whining much more after this thread. I just think the balancing decisions are wrong sometimes, but not much to do.

You are comparing the wrong ships. Muninn is a better Rupture and Deimos is a better Thorax, so those two should be compared.
I just had a look at those two ships at the test server. Deimos has less mass and higher top speed than the Muninn now. Also it has one more low slot than the Muninn, not to mention twice the drone space so it can field 5 medium drones (muninn can field 5 lights).
Its also interesting that the blaster deimos has 10 km longer targeting range than the artillery Muninn, and Muninn gets bonuses to projectile optimal (instead of falloff which would be much more appropriate) but whatever...
At least the Rupture and the Thorax is still balanced. Wonder when that will change as well.
Originally by: ArmyOfMe dont worry jim, in a week ill be done with minni cruiser 5 so i can start to whine about minni ships needing a boost as well 
I usually try to stay out of balancing discussions, so I wont be whining much more after this thread. I just think the balancing decisions are wrong sometimes, but not much to do.
And you are trying to use munin in a role it was not made to. Use it as a support sniper ship, taking out frigates and e-war cruisers. A deimos have no chance of being as effective as a Munin on that role.
Munin is simply NOT a solo ship. Its a support ship.
If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough |

But dont you think its funny that while the Deimos has the perfect bonuses and slot layouts for being a blaster ship, Muninn doesnt get anything to help it work as a artillery ship?
If I were to design it as a perfect artillery ship, I would give it bonuses to falloff range, tracking, rof and damage. And I would give it 6 turrets so it has a chance of inflicting good damage from that range. Instead it has the usual crappy launcher/turret mix and not enough drone space to even use medium drones for defense.

Why to falloff? Nonsense. falloff is for AC. Arties have range> falloff, so range bonus is better. Munin is excelent ship. the only thing it could have extra is move one high to mid slot.

I have to agree with you that the muninn needs a buff, even tho i still feel its more of a close range ship then anything else.
One of the problems with the muninn imo is that it doesnt have the pg and range to become a very good sniper and it needs better res all over to compete at close range.

Doesnt the Munnin get rof,damage,tracking AND optimal range bonuses ? Not even an Astarte with 7 guns has its alpha strike. It also has 5 guns the same amount as the Deimos. Nobody is forcing you to put launchers in those last two high slots btw..

They can remove all launcher slots for all I care. Launchers on a artillery sniper ship is like giving the Deimos less turrets and some launcher slots as well. They only serve to make the ship less focused and more difficult to skill for.
Even though the Deimos will probably become very popular with nanos now, so maybe launchers would be perfect for it... ---

Hell yeah, my Deimos finally can actually move ! He's gonna be good for a ride now ! And i finally won't get insta nossed to death with the NOS nerf ! Oh wait, what's locking me ? A neut boat !
/me can't wait this hits TQ
To everybody comparing Muninn-Vaga to the Deimos ...
Deimos nanoed orbiting out side web range will hit like a velator, but yeah drones will still hit, as long as no ones figures to pop em.
Deimos fights at 1km in its role, Vaga fight outside web range and Munnin from far off in most cases. I guess it only figures it needs some sort of capabilty to fit defense. Also, the number of vagas and munnin i fought compared to the number (single) of Deimos i fought tells a lot.
Thanks, make this TQ stuff !

Nonsense. Why would anyone nano a deimos, blasters wont hit outside webrange, an ishtar can do the same job with 3 times more DPS.

Dude.
Have you ever actually flown a Muninn?
I have.
A lot.
And they are absolutely phenomenal artillery ships.
And what do you mean it cant do good damage?
I would say my average volley damage with Rep fleet EMP M and 720 II's is between 1500-2000, against a tanked ship.
And it can go from a 20KM alpha monster to a 130km Sniper just by changing ammo types.
There is nothing wrong with it.
Deimos on the other hand is just crap. Your signature exceeds the maximum allowed dimensions of 400x120 pixels and filesize of 24000 bytes -Sahwoolo Etoophie ([email protected]) |

That said, better nanoships than sitting with dustcovers on.

I think I see the plan now. Nerf all the speedy minmatar ships, but boost some of the gallente ones so they become speedy, and with twice the dps.
I figured the tradeoff for having strong dps was being slow, but seems that no longer should apply. Changes like these makes me wonder if the balancing devs fly anything but gallente.
Having strong DPS doesn't mean you should be slow, A deimos has to next to the target to do any dps, its got a weak tank and even weaker when you consider you need low slots for damage mods.

true, boost the Deimos, it needs a better tank to also survive in close range, gun DPS, drones and speed isn't enough IMO ---------- KEEP TRY!!!
