All the cries for nano nerfs are simply the result of:
* CCP boosting Caldari too much
* as a result, everyone flying Caldari
* all the whiney kids now crying "omg I can't hit him with my missiles"
What can you do when 50+% of the user base flies Caldari now? No wonder we are seeing whole 250 man fleets with Caracals and Drakes these days (hi Insurgency & Russian friends).
So, it's only Caldari that can't kill them Although the prospect of a missile, not being able to catch the ship us pretty hilarious by itself, the problem is not only with Caldari. It's also with Amarr, who can't track those ships. Race that has best anti-speed tools are Minmatar. Great news for those who spent ages to specialize in other races. Minmatar Cruiser is easily taken to lvl 5, yes, as well as other Minmatar specializations.
Just look at what is going on in 0.0 besides huge blobfests. Look at Outbreak gangs, Triumvirate gangs. They are nano-gangs. Why? Those guys can chose what to fly, yet most of their gangs are nano. There should be a reason for that. Where's the diversity you fight for? Many ships are not even seriously used because of the current nano-trend. They are not good to blob, and they are not good to roam, because they can't be nano'ed. Nerfing this trend will only increase diversity, because nano will not be an automatic PvPer's choice.
You really dont know what youre talking about honestly. Vagas are the solo nano ship of choice but in gangs they flat out suck because of their short range. Vagas die quickly in nano gangs for the same reason that sabres do, they have to fight inside of 20km. As for Amarr tracking youre again completely wrong. Amarr battleships are the best anti-nano choice as they have great tracking. Most other turret battleships die after one or two TDs, if you have a geddon or apoc or abbadon against you, you need 3 of they will start sniping your nanos, which have no tank at all. Lastly, just because a ship isnt good to roam, doesnt mean its useless. When you start roaming with battleships and drakes and such, PVP diversity is over. Those ships are not made to be fast and agile. When you see them start to roam, you know agility no longer has any worth as a tactic, and diverse PVP is dead.
