Fellow contenders, we can finally give you the preliminary score from the last forum whining contest.
To no suprise, its another victory for the veterans of the caldari whine squads, and this time it wasnt much of a fight.
While we are still counting points, the results so far are:
Caldari = +14
Minmatar = 0
Amarr = -5
Gallente = -15
And while the complete list of wins and losses would be to long for one post, I will just point out the ones that actually does matter to the final score. (Only nerfs/boosts where the ships role (bonuses) are affected, and general changes that affect most ships).
Gallente:
Eos:
- drone bay
- gun slots
- drone bandwidth
- scoop drone healing
- Gang link, info superiority nerfed
Myrmid:
- drone bandwidth
- scoop drone healing
Ishkur
- drone bandwidth
- scoop drone healing
Dominix
- scoop drone healing
Vexor
- scoop drone healing
Ishtar
- scoop drone healing
Celestis
- RSD efficiency
Arazu
- RSD efficiency
Lachesis
- Lachesis RSD efficiency
Amarr
- Tracking computers nerfed
Curse:
- TD efficiency
- drone bandwidth
- scoop drone healing
+ neut cap use
Pilgrim
- TD efficiency
- drone bandwidth
- scoop drone healing
+ neut cap use
Minmatar:
- Tracking computers nerfed
Typhoon:
+ Torp damage
Caldari:
+ ship agility to most ships
Raven:
+ Torp damage
Scorpion:
+ ECM efficiency
+ ECM cap use
Falcon:
+ ECM efficiency
+ ECM cap use
Rook:
+ ECM efficiency
+ ECM cap use
Blackbird:
+ ECM efficiency
+ ECM cap use
Griffin
+ ECM efficiency
+ ECM cap use
Nighthawk
+ Gang link cap use reduced (boost for passive tank)
Vulture
+ Gang link cap use reduced (boost for passive tank)
Once again CCP balances the game with the precission of a blind man performing life saving surgery with a chainsaw, with guidance from a blood thirsty audience.
The question now is; Will the up and coming Gallente whining team take the challenge and try to recover? They have made a huge improvement and shown strong will the last couple of weeks. And will Amarr finally give up?
Is this post a whine? Offcourse it is. If one thing is to be learned from this next patch, it is that whining works. More forum whining will give you good stuff. And for those who dont want to whine? Tough luck.
Ok, Caldari whiners, show me your flaming skills.
*Edit: Added Neut cap use boost, and boosts for griffin.
You sir are a baboon. While some of the nerfs are indeed ridiculous (like TD nerf and to a point SD nerf), this has nothing at all to do with Caldari Online. I agree, SD nerf affects Gallente recons badly but that doesn't mean that their Caldari counterparts just became powerful. They are simply better SUPPORT ships. The falcon still can't kill a light scout drone, the Rook set up for EW (the only sensible fitting) is much weaker than a Caracal.
The agility nerf doesn't change the fact that Caldari ships are still heavy, slow and maneuverable like a pregnant stegosaurus. ECM is still useless on non-dedicated ships.
The ONLY actual PvP boost for Caldari is the torpedo change. This introduces the ONLY heavy damage dealer for the race. Raven will be the only BS viable for killing stuff. The Rokh has range but no damage, the Scorp is a support ship. What does your oh-so-nerfed Gallente BS shop have left? Megathron, now the best fleet sniper in EvE, Hyperion with respectable DPS and a huge tank and the Domi, still powerful and very flexible.
This post is nothing more than a whine about the nerf that takes I-WIN ships from you and turns them into something balanced. Cry more and stop pretending you care about the minor and well-deserved tweaks to Caldari.
