Katrina Coreli toxicology	Posted - 2007.10.23 22:15:00 - [1] CCP seam to be in the habit of over nerfing. They have nerfed ships no one has even whined about (and if you are a regular of this forum you will know it doesnt take much to start a whine). Nerfing the ishkur so it can only use 5 lights seams just to be a needless jab at gallente just to appease anti gall whiners. The Eos is now frankly unflyable. Nerfed bandwidth and 2 turrets lost. This thing will be able to tank well and.....well thats about it. This is just a clear shift towards making gallente the blaster and tank race (notice the lack of blaster boat nerfage) and making drones a universal comodity and not a race specific bonus to flying gallente. Every gallente drone boat of note is getting a nerf, the ishkur, the vexor, the myrmidon and the Eos. Only the DOminix gets through unscathed. Amarr even have bigger drone bays us in several classes now. I think this is the end of the Gallente fotm period. Weve all enjoyed it but i think this is the begining of the end :) THE CAKE IS A LIE!
Katrina Coreli toxicology	Posted - 2007.10.23 22:19:00 - [2] Originally by: vostok sorry about this post really but EVERYTHING i trained in the last year and a half getting all of the skills up for has suddenly become useless in general or compared to other races I understand your fustration but you are over exagerating slightly. As a good rule in eve always train for what you actually want to fly and enjoy flying and not for what is fotm then it wont hurt as much when they nerf it. The megathron is still going to be a solid ship without a doubt. Just because a ship isnt the best at fullfilling a certain job in its class does not make it useless, thats simply not how it works. Dont treat a buff to one race as a nerf to your own THE CAKE IS A LIE!
Katrina Coreli toxicology	Posted - 2007.10.23 22:29:00 - [3] Originally by: Zyssa Gallente HAD the best Fleet Command (now its equal to other races) I cant see how the Eos is inline with the other races cmd ships. Post nerf its going to be pretty unflyable. The Eos needed turret slots taken off to halt the uber damage but the reduction to med drones is far too far. Unlike the myrmi the Eos has no drone damage bonus and if its turret slots were reduced it would be inline with other cmd ships, a solid tank and decent dps. However post nerf it is frankly a lousy ship. I wouldnt fly it over the Brutix THE CAKE IS A LIE!
Katrina Coreli toxicology	Posted - 2007.10.23 22:44:00 - [4] Originally by: Skraeling Shortbus A ship with a drone bay bonus that cant launch 5 heavies heheeh thats gotta be some sort of cruel joke. Even the drone bay bonus is being nerfed No need for it but they may aswell rub salt in the wound THE CAKE IS A LIE!
Katrina Coreli toxicology	Posted - 2007.10.23 22:50:00 - [5] As far as i know the ishtar is unchanged, 5 heavy drones et all THE CAKE IS A LIE!

Post nerf its going to be pretty unflyable. The Eos needed turret slots taken off to halt the uber damage but the reduction to med drones is far too far. Here is an idea. Let me mount large autocannons on my Hurricane and Sleipnir and you can keep your heavy drones on your Myrmidon and Eos. Suund fair? The myrmidon was overpowered, ive always said so. However 5 unbonused heavy drones do not do fearsome damage in the slightest. May your wish be granted so long as we can target your weapons THE CAKE IS A LIE!

May your wish be granted so long as we can target your weapons Please share what you are smoking, because 257 dps sure is a zhitload of unbonused damage. Which is why i think it should have been taken down to 5 or better 4 turret slots. That would limit even a full neutron gank Eos to the mid 600s interms of damage and would leave it with almost no tank. The Eos always has had a problem. It is clearly a solo/small gang boat whereas its bonuses lend it more heavyily to fleet warefare (Information Warfare) but this has been overlooked because it was awsomein its role solo or in small gangs. However following this nerf it is nigh on unflyable. Crap dps, decent enough tank but mismatched bonuses which make it on ballence the worst in its class by quite a long way post nerf. THE CAKE IS A LIE!

The Eos needed turret slots taken off to halt the uber damage ... WHAT UBER DAMAGE? ARE U F##### CRAZY? Compare a pre nerf Eoses damage with 7 Bonused Blasters and 5 Heavy drones and compare that to the dps other races ships can achieve. For its class the Eoses damage was rediculous and it could still maintain a good tank. THE CAKE IS A LIE!

Hang on! gets a vial and stuffs it under vostok's eye YouWhat tears cure cancer and feed the poor, you know. Keep the balancing coming, CCP.
