Neo Providence	Posted - 2007.08.15 15:57:00 - [1] ok, I really like the typhoon, but there is one thing that bothers me. The bonus!!! I mean the typhoon is a wonderful ship that would be great for pvp, and lvl 4 missions. But it would be better if it would be a minny carrier. bonus change: 5% bonus to cruise missle velocity per level 10% bonus to drone HP, damage, and mining drone amount per level. I know the typhoon has a split weapons system, that would mean bonus to turrets and missles. but what it is also is a small drone ship (small doesn't really apply). So i think it would be better to have the drone bonus. don't go all out on me if i said anything wrong.
Constable Detritus PURE Legion Pure.	Posted - 2007.08.15 16:08:00 - [2] /signed Just make it a 5% bonus to dmg and speed of drones. Would at least take advantage of its decent drone bay. But maybe I am just too excited and talk nonsense. ______________________________________ Goberth Ludwig: Joshua has a pillow with molle printed on it.
NoNah Unseen University	Posted - 2007.08.15 16:18:00 - [3] Neo Providence Changes would indeed make it the number 1 mission ship. Good or bad, well, I'd like to see a change in the hierarchy, however on the other hand, I wouldn't want to see the retaliation of the caldarian whine mob. As for giving it a drone speed bonus, there's allready a drone tracking issue, this would be a downside for everything but typhoon specialist who does NOT train other drone skills. Alts is just another name for inbreeders.

I like my phoon, is suffers from crappy dps as it is, for a battleship anyway. I would like its shield HP switched to armour hp though, and possible a bit more grid.
DONJUAN v Tarnak inc. Coalition of Carebear Killers	Posted - 2007.08.15 20:44:00 - [7] Edited by: DONJUAN v on 15/08/2007 20:46:26 plz tell me your joking , mission ships since when minm do mission they pvp 4 arby torps with navy torps 4 425mm ac tech 2 with fleet emp 5 heavy drone tech 2 speed and tank what more do u want rof to missil and proj rig bonus to drone.... get a domi P.S cross training for the win
Vitaki Rens 911	Posted - 2007.08.15 21:42:00 - [8] this is a great idea lets take the only split weapon ship that works well in its intended role and change it into something completely different
Leandro Salazar The Blackguard Wolves	Posted - 2007.08.15 21:55:00 - [9] 5% bonus to cruise missile velocity? What a silly bonus... Either make that 10% cruise and torp like on other ships (or only torp for all I care, they are what needs the speed after all, cruise are fast enough without bonus) or don't bother. Plus I am afraid that the combination of semi-powerful missiles with really powerful drones would end up being a tad overpowered... Plus the current phoon is actually kinda fine, what ships really dedicated to split slots (as in 4+4) need is the bonuses to each weapon system to be 7.5% damage rather than 5% RoF. There is no 'n' in turret There is no 'r' in faction There is no 'a' in Scorpion There is no 'e' in Caldari There is no makeup in rogue drones
Cilppiz Minmatar FinFleet Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.08.15 22:40:00 - [10] To be honest Typhoon is quite fine with current stats. With t2 kit it can deal quite nice damage on wide range and type without having to use low slots for damage modules. Only flaws I can see on Typhoon are petty PG it has (can be fixed with rigs) and that its shield and armor hitpoints which would in my opinion make more sence vice versa. Additionally you dont want to boost Matar ships too much or it leads Caldari pilots getting 7th launcher slot on normal Raven and 8th on Navy version
Dohl Khrensen Huang Yinglong Namtz'aar k'in	Posted - 2007.08.15 22:58:00 - [11] Hell no! I have to agree with others here in that the Typhoon actually appears to be balanced in terms of a tier 1 battleship. I find RoF bonuses a bit boring, I admit, but it makes sense with the characteristics of the race. There's a tier 1 BS with a drone bonus and a 7 slot tank already, its a Dominix. The versatility of the Typhoon is amazing as it is. It has limitations, but it should have. /agree with the switch of shield and armor amounts though....but even that makes it too much like a Domi for my liking.
Dristra Amarr Shadows of the Dead Aftermath Alliance	Posted - 2007.08.15 23:43:00 - [12] Just give it a 6 turret\6 launcher setup That would help alot, yet still not be too good for a tier 1 ship It's great being Amarr isn't it.
BlackMoon Thrawn Wreckless Abandon Triumvirate.	Posted - 2007.08.16 01:31:00 - [13] FFS, if you want to fix the phoon start with the shield and armor values.

That way the Raven pilots don't ***** as much, but it can have atleast SOME focus to it. I eat pigs feet.
Carniflex Caldari Fallout Research Fallout Project	Posted - 2007.08.16 05:58:00 - [15] Originally by: NoNah Neo Providence Changes would indeed make it the number 1 mission ship.

As for giving it a drone speed bonus, there's allready a drone tracking issue, this would be a downside for everything but typhoon specialist who does NOT train other drone skills. With those bonuses on it I would sure think about switching to typhoon from my CNR. Drones have their problems ofcource but it would be like taking best parts from Dominix and Raven. Awesome for PvE - as far as PvP goes - it would be new standard of the month, a new nano era of typhoons going 'whoooooosh' while spamming torps at you and spanking you with his uber drones.

Trojanman190 Caldari Murder-Death-Kill Triumvirate.	Posted - 2007.08.16 14:59:00 - [18] Definitly a 5/5 layout. And armor switched with shields. I would like to see a bonus change. A drone bonus would be cool but only 175 m3 in drones isnt much to justify it.

Testosterone Bomb Red Ballz	Posted - 2007.08.16 20:59:00 - [20] Edited by: Testosterone Bomb on 16/08/2007 21:02:41 Edited by: Testosterone Bomb on 16/08/2007 21:01:34 Actually , I have no issue with the ship bonus , nor the fact that this can be a Powerful Drone, Missile or Projectile Ship. Being able to fly a BS that can be customed for Missions with ease due to layout and the probable skills a Min pilot has trained is very sweet. As for the PowerGrid and Armor changes , sure would love more of both , but not if CCP opts to make the ship slower due to increased bulk. If there was not a decrease in speed I would strongly support an Increase in both Grid and Amor. Even in the current form the Typhoon is one of the most deadly BS in the game if only because you never really know what you are going to be facing.
