But will be weaker. So setup your ship to fight blasters, and run from everything else. Or setup to kill laser ships, and die form everything else. Fitted for specific situations is a good thing. Having a 1-fit-for-all is bad.

Of course, CCP only makes changes designed to make the game harder for YOU to adapt to. It's nothing to do with any other process, no sort of balance consideration, no amount of whining from anyone else; no, CCP is out to get YOU.

What's the Point ? What is there to gain by wasting time with this nonsense.
What you need to do is fix your hardware problems. Can't even have a fleet battle without having a node crash, mega lag, or in general, making fights miserable and unplayable. You can no longer blame all this on Video Cards.

Angle ratting? Yeah, that is hard. I hear those Isosceles ships are really tough. And the Rhombus, it's got huge resists. Gotta really watch out for the Acute frigates too, they are incredibly fast!

You do realize this applies to all ships as angle's are the only one that do all types of damage? Tanking these Rats already requires a 5 slot tank what do they want a 6 slot?
I guess that means we have to move to huge mother armor brick abbadons for plexes and more guardians.

Moving to an Abaddon for running complexes, with its additional 25% resistances, would cancel out the resistance change and give you an additional 25% resistance to your other resistances. Why didn't you do this to begin with?
Perhaps you should keep in mind that tanking a 10/10 complex isn't something that should be possible with a single ship. ---------------- Tarminic - 33 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.1 |

No NPC's never get affect by player changes. As you can see a rat and still lop torps from 100 km away or any of the other crap they never bother to change.

Because a Raven can run a much better local tank then an Abbadon and getting Caldari Pilots is easier not to mention a raven is significily cheaper then an abbadon.
we have never run plexes solo we always use at-least 1 logistics ship and a logistics style battleship plex's can't be done solo unless your crazy and there happens to be no gates and you use a mothership/carrier.

So you should probably factor all of those things into your decision regarding which ships to bring into a complex and then, based on local availability, make the correct decision. If you can get a Raven + an extra repping ship more easily than an Abaddon, do that. If not, use the Abaddon. I really don't get what the problem here except that you're more interested in whining than adapting to a %6.75 to %12.5 increase in NPC DPS. ---------------- Tarminic - 33 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.1 |

No from what they have said this change was made to stop omi-tanking in pvp combat and its going to significantly affect many more ships far beyond the reaches of pvp combat to the point where some lose viability for pve content. Developers in the past have always over-looked too many things while making sweeping changes including ones made in this patch that are much more game balance changing then this one.

The Raven is %6.75 to %12.5 less effective against Angel NPCs. Given the Raven's absolute dominance of almost every form of PvE, do you honestly believe that this is a big enough issue to complain about? Would you prefer that every ship except the Raven receive this change so you can avoid the thirty seconds of synapse firing needed to adapt your PvE tactics?

I could care less about the raven itself i dont really use it but running running plex's using a shield tank ship was the norm and because of this change they are going to go by the way side. This is more about making a sweeping change to all the ships of the game , being heavy handed about it and its going to make more then a few ships less then desirable in combat and for making money.

I repeat, a shield tanking ship fighting an enemy with 25% explosive damage will be 6.75% less effective. I believe that most of those concerned by that margin are min-maxers, and I have no sympathy for them. In addition, I think a greater variety among PvE ships is a good thing.
If that is really disconcerting, I suspect that you simply dislike any change that negatively affects your ability to make money, directly or otherwise. ---------------- Tarminic - 33 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.1 |

You don't think that there's been an in-depth review or discussion. Unless you're a CCP employee you can't know how thoroughly this has been discussed internally. Have you considered that CCP may be planning other changes to keep things in line? Or that maybe this helps achieve several different goals at once? Currently it seems like your reasoning is that since this affects the Raven negatively, CCP didn't think through it enough.

Can I post in your tread for a sec, ta.
Lvl4 mission = pve plex = pve
Im lost about the diffence you seem to see.
Also in your 5k allince do you let everyone come do this plex & share the spoils ? or do you think the odd 1 might run missions to make some isk ?.

Now of course you all mighty all knowing shield tanking gods had nothing to say when the nerfbat hit the sensor damps so hard they are now practicaly non existant but heaven forbid we actualy require you to you know... think of your setup just a tad.. oh noes...
I for one support this change wholeheatedly as a well thought out solution to somewhat alleviate the amarr problem, a problem that has been around for a very long time already.
Take your heads out of the sand and look around.

Can I post in your tread for a sec, ta.
Lvl4 mission = pve plex = pve
Im lost about the diffence you seem to see.
Also in your 5k allince do you let everyone come do this plex & share the spoils ? or do you think the odd 1 might run missions to make some isk ?.
These are probed out plexes . Yes you need a gang to enter then and complete them so people do come. There are no more static plexes in 0.0 as far as i know.

Why do people keep complaining about "Now the ONLY viable option is an OMNI tank"
....
Do you even read the setups in S&M? I've never seen anything but a PvE or Capital setup that used anything other than EM hardener + invulns for shields or an explosive hardener + ENAMs + DC for armor tanks in PvP.
99% of people already used an omni tank for PvP, this makes them less effective on shield/armor's highest native resists (explosive/EM) Which is EXACTLY what they were trying to do with this change.

Have you ever done pvp? Have you ever flow into combat knowing that there are mutliple titans that can drop on your head when ever they feel like it? this is why you have to omni tank.

There always room for a probing but thats irrelvent to damage resistance or a diffence between the 2 forms of pve & player doing them ?.

You do realize this applies to all ships as angel's are the only one that do all types of damage? Tanking these Rats already requires a 5 slot tank what do they want a 6 slot?
No, they want you to run level 4s in gangs. Like it was intended.
who runs l4s? i sure as hell dont.
Yeah, noone really runs level 4... eherm. lol goon.

Maybe they were intended to be hard. I hope they make NPCing even harder in the future tbh.

Thanks O'cap-e-tan!
If you'd like to provide a survey to the real number, I'd love to see it. Anyways my point was that the majority of people OMNI tank anyways, maybe not 99%.

People who speed tank in thing like vaga's and such dont omni tank so its much less then 99%. And then you have to add on the people that can't fit ships and stuff so i would say maybe 50%.

Isn't that kind of like saying that people don't shield tank if they armor tank? If you're speed tanking you aren't relying on shields or armor to protect you, and as such it would not fall under that category.

well, at least it makes everybody rethink their ship setups. eve just keeps forcing us to use our brains a tiny bit while gaming. but i believe this is not really a bad thing. else, it would get boring and we could as well switch over to 'my little pink pony'...

Yes. Sharmor tanking uses both mids and lows, which means you can't fit tackling gear OR an honor tank! ---------------- Tarminic - 33 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.1 |

I have been playing for 1.5 years. I had finally got Cruise missile spec IV and you guys nerf missiles. Tactical shield manipulation V and you guys nerf shields...
Please tell me what not to train next...
