Hey everyone,
just came back from a break stretching past a year.. I'd like to catch up as fast as possible so the question is:
what has changed regarding ships/mods etc in EVE the last year that is worth knowing?
... and any other changes to game mechanics in relation to the above mentioned as far as pvp is concerned?
cheers! |

No more logoffski, if you log while being shot, you won't leave space until you're a) dead or b) they've stopped aggressing you for 15 mins.
Dreads and Supercaps no longer have regular drones, supercarriers have fighters and fighter-bombers only, titans and dreads have nothing. The Moros gets a hybrid RoF bonus to compensate, making it a subcap raep-masheen of fairly epic proportions.
Tier 3 BCs, they tank like HACs while having BS guns. Pretty much the hard-counter to Tier 2 BCs entirely. A lot of HACs are feeling the heat as well.
Destroyers lost their role penalty, they now raep almost any frig they can catch.
AFs getting buffed very soon. +1 slot, 4th bonus and a bunch of other stuff.
Named capital mods, T2 siege and triage modules, T2 expanded probe launchers, and some other stuff is in the game now.
Probably more that I'm missing. |

Hybrids got more Dmg, Better Tracking, Lower Fitting, Less Cap Use, 5 Sec Reload and Null is getting a small range buff.
Gallente / Caldari Hybrid Ships got small Speed / Agility Improvements.
All T2 Gun Ammo had their Ship Penalties Removed. Long Rang Guns: T2 Short Range Ammo Damage Nerfed a bit and had their Tracking Penalties replaced with a Tracking Buff. Short Range Guns: T2 Short Range Ammo has got Dmg buffs and their Range matches T1 Short Range Ammo.
Supercapitals received HP Nerfs and the Titan Doomsday only Targets Capital Ships.
Rockets have been buffed in Incursions expansion along with the Hawk. As Mfume stated more AF Buffs coming in 2 Days.
No more Un-Probable Ships. |

Okay, sounds like there's been a few possitive changes (especially the logoffski-nerf)
I'm also loving the tier-3 bc concept, although haven't had a chance to try them out yet. Seeing as I like to go at it solo alot they might not be the best alternative but I definitaly see a hit'n'run potential ...
Regarding the hybrig-buff... same here; haven't tried it out but as far as I recall, blasters were quite good but with these changes weren't they brought a little over the top? 5-sec reload? amongst other things..
also like the t2 ammo changes, always seemed ridiculous that you should be penelized for using t2 ammo.. then what's the point? so a good one...
awaiting impatiently the AF-buff then.. I used them a lot before when they sucked but with a buff they might actually be a viable option.
What were the rocket changes, more dps and/or range? |

tier3 BC's are basically cruisers with battleship guns. The tornado is now the supreme suicide ganking machine, while the talos can actually mount a feeble defence against frigates, which are, pretty much, the nemesis of these ships. [img]http://eve-files.com/sig/grimpak[/img]
