Launchers received a ROF increase. Now torps are a short-range PVP oriented weapon.

ok, so I must be dense, there is nothing changed except shorter flight time. I don't see any adjustments to the launchers except that it says its for against stations and battleships. but with maxed skills you will only get a 30KM max locking range. My God, It's full of stars!! |

um, no, it's a nerf....what are you supposed to do with a raven and a 15km torpedo range. nano it and mwd toward your target?
this nerf was intended to hinder ratting and mission running and complexes by lowering the isk-per hour. it sucks. so much for 0.0 ratting tripple 1.85 battleship spawns with a trusty torpedo raven.

CCP should filter 'nerf' with the word 'buff' and vice versa.
these random complaints still wouldn't make much sense, but it'd be mildly ammusing to hear people endlessly demanding to see amarr nerfed.
and stuff.

Quite. Look at the rate of fire on the launchers. Torps have now been brought in line with the other short range, high damage weapons. You spew more torps over less distance. They're now the huge rockets they're supposed to be. If you want range, use cruise missiles.

Think of the difference between rockets and light missles.
Light missles - long range, moderate speed, moderate damage, Low ROF
Rockets - Short range, high speed, high damage, High ROF
Now, for BS size weapons you have
Cruise Missles - Long range, high speed, moderate damage, Low ROF
Torps - Short range, Moderate speed, high damage, high ROF.
They were changed to come more in line with the way other weapons work.
Every races weapon system has 2 types, one short range and high damage, and one long range and low damage.
Do Blasters, AC's, Pulses reach out to 100km? No. So why should Torps.
that's not all the nitty gritty details, but that's the basis reasoning.

Yes. Just like Blasterboats, ACboats and Pulseboats. Ravens are slow, but nothing is really THAT slow in this game. A Raven is the same speed as an Apocalypse, and faster than an Abaddon. Its even the same speed as a Maelstrom. ------

Yes. Just like Blasterboats, ACboats and Pulseboats. Ravens are slow, but nothing is really THAT slow in this game. A Raven is the same speed as an Apocalypse, and faster than an Abaddon. Its even the same speed as a Maelstrom.
Its also worth pointing out that the passive speed mods (nanos, overdrives and such) are all low slots. Armour tankers have a much rougher time of squeezing in the speed then a shield tanker.
True, but all Caldari ships are gimped at PvP thanks to MWDs, disruptors, webifiers being mid slot dependent. An armor tanker can still fit a full tank while a Caldari Raven will have to forgo 75% of a tank to compete.
Now that being said, Caldari (according to the lore) are supposed to be militarily superior do to their obsession with military technology. It occurs to me that military of any sort never runs as a one man show. If your caldari you had best bring friends or go home now. ------------------------------------------------- **** Name ONE thing that your windows comp can do that my MAC cant

Torps are seriously brutal now, and the range nerf really isn't such an issue in PvP. Raven gets its velocity bonus, increasing the range to 29.6km at maximum, and AC Typhoon will fight very close anyway. As for Raven's speed, sure it is a brick, but so is any plated armour tanker too. Even without speed mods, you can get it to about 1km/s, which is plenty enough.
For PvE, it is a nerf, but well deserved one. Before, no ship really compared to torp Raven in 0.0 ratting and lvl 4 missions. It definitely wasn't a good thing that a single ship was simply the best. Now, Raven can still use cruises, and it's very good rat-killer when equipped with them, just not overpoweringly so.
Yeah, definitely one of the best changes lately.

Edited by: cal nereus on 21/12/2007 00:54:10 Its a buff. A torpedo buff. They've lost range, but now they do more damage. As it is, the Torp Raven does the most damage of any battleship in the game. It's a buff. The Torp Raven is for PvP, not PvE. ---

Whine whine whine. I hit L4's just after the supposed 'nerf' where Ravens have been deemed useless now and I built a cruiseboat. I have 84km range and my missiles do just fine tanking down battleships. Hasn't slowed down my mission running one bit.

it is a torpedo NERF, people! you realistically can't take the raven into 0.0 ratting anymore. for pvp, you have to sacrifice all the 5 low slots (and your tank!) to nano it in order to get into range. even if you are within range, another tanked battleship will whipe you out before you can break his tank.
you will need BS 5 and bombardment 5 to even have a chance with torps. that exlcudes, oh, i dont know, 95% of the raven pilots!
and lets see what happens when you engage something within range. at 5 seconds RoF it will look silly to have all these huge explosions and not being able to hit an interceptor, for example.

what? whine? son, don't tell me it has not slowed you down because doing level 2, 3, and 4 missions is chump change compared to chain ratting tripple 1.85m battleship spawns...especially in isk per hour.
