The big problem with speed in my opinion isn't one vaga that ganks my alt in a belt when I forget looking at him. It isn't the great soloing ability of a vaga thats the problem. Leave the vaga alone. Let it keep its role and usefulness. If speed mods gets nerfed give the vaga some love back (and give it to the lachesis and arazu at the same time  )
The problem I see with speed is the nano gangs consisting of something like vaga, rapier, ishtar, curse. That can pick targets, avoid camps and even if they do go into a fight they never have to commit to it. If things get to rough they just mwd away and warp out. The only way to kill (notice I say kill not counter) a gang setup like this is to bring a nano gang yourself and THAT is what makes speed overpowered at the moment.
Nerf HACs ability to nano, leave vagas ability alone.

Sorry for not suggesting anything. I see ppl posting complaints about the vaga or "how to counter a vaga" threads as arguments for and against a speed nerf when its not really the problem IMO.
Increase the stacking penalty on speed modules by making all speed increasing effects stack? The problem might come from the fact that there are more then 1 variable affecting MWD speed. Mass and speed. Make the speed increase that comes from mass reduction stack with speed increase from overdrives.
I dunno tbh.

Its just that most of those tools enables you to fight a nano gang and survive it, not kill it.
If you want to have a chance of getting revenge you need a nano gang.
Let the vaga nano, and rapier and huginn. Its like with all other nerf threads where ppl often argue that, take damps as an example, shouldn't be used on almost any ship. Well nanoing is done on most HACs. Its simply the best solution at the moment for most situations. Nano ishtar, nano sac, nano zealot Liang?, nano curse. The T2 cruisers that nano badly are the least used. The T2 cruisers that nano are used the most.
sry for late edit

I want to kill a gang consisting of 3 nanod HACs cause they are disturbing my mining OP. they constantly come back. My only real defense is to permanently take care of them. I wanna setup a trap, gatecamp, something to take em out. what do I do then?
If thats my goal, I can't achieve it within reasonable effort IMO except by using nanos myself off course.
