/Ranger 1 goes away chuckling and muttering under his breath about Pandemic pilots that pretend not to know how to fly a nano-zealot properly...
/emote looks at the killmail being referred to, sees a MWD as the only speed mod on the ship... Still trying to figure out how it's called a nano zealot.

1. Why are your scouts so bad they didn't warn you about the carrier blob so you could go around it?
2. How long does it take for carriers to lock small targets, and how many times can you warp out in that time?
Unfortunately, you'll have to THINK now when playing EVE, and you'll have to face a risk similar to everyone else who're not nano'ed 
Oh I'm sorry, we should just avoid all things having to do with PVP unless we can find a lone ratter in a belt after traveling for an hour...

You are over-estimating the actual nerf to speed that this change causes to the average player. Severely.
And you truely have no clue about how far it will go, none of us will until monday.

So you desire gorilla warfare to exist after the nerf? How do you propose I get past the 50 man gatecamp?
They should introduce a range of ship which can sneakly bypass gatecamps tbh..
Oh, wait..
And you expect those uber awesome black ops to jump bridge past the gate camps into what system that isn't cynojammed again?

Nanos are nerfed....and they're not even dead (since webs got nerfed as well), but nano pilots are sill whining.
Nano is still a viable option IMO. Just not as good as before (read "best").
The nerf and changes should make this game more interesting. Any of those pilots who are claiming that this will become "drakes online" have obviously been in their nano ships so long that they their minds fell out in mid-warp somewhere (running away from a fight no doubt).
It's not the nano nerfs we're having issues with, it's the "lets continue to take a baseball bat to problems and end up screwing up more than we fix" approach that CCP is using.

I find it amusing that all the people that are crying foul of these changes are the likes of pandemic legion,EXCEED AMD TRI.
They have made there name from this broken game mechanic and are now bleating like stuffed pigs about it getting BALANCED.
Good move CCP dont sway on this one.
Yet we will still be better than you will ever dream, even after we change (or don't change since 90% of our ships only use a MWD as our sole speed mod).

And this'll happen everytime you train for FOTM!
You have, like so many others, trained for speed because you saw it gave you an almost unbeatable advantage to people who didn't. And you wonder why they're nerfing it???
If you train for the next FOTM I-Win button, you'll be caught out again when that is balanced down the line!
My bad I didn't know that training for HACs/Recons was training FOTM. I have the ability to fly every t2 cruser in this game, and you know what this patch will do? Make 50% of them not worth buying since a cheaper BC will out tank and out dps them.

The more I think about these changes the more they're growing on me...
Both the Wolf and the Enyo are now much more viable choices for pvp when fitted with a scram and AB, and will dogfight very nicely within webrange.
Then someone shoots a missile at you and you run crying about how missiles are overpowered.

IRC Battle Report
What the hell? Obviously this can't be allowed to happen. This nerf has been required for a long time so these "pvpers" abusing this totally overpowered tactic are put back to the same level as everyone else 
How is it that a HAC gang can fight a gang of battleships and capitals head on and take minimal losses, especially with a titan on the field. This is dispicable and needs to end now. 
Hmm looking at the 4 losses (it was 5 really) where are all these uber speed mods at?
PS - It's still missing the IRC Drake and Anethema that they doomsdayed on the 2nd attempt.

I think IRC is a pretty cool alliance. eh sits supercap on stations and doesnt afraid of anything.
In a Sov 4 system where no other caps can enter and a Titan in system to clear those pesky RR battleships that attempt to kill the capitals...

Hey guys, someone forgot to tell PL that you can't "effectively" nano a dreadnaught. My phoenix couldn't get past 0m/s

Read my post again, two mains in 0.0 alliances. Do you think I have never been attacked by a nano, or indeed that my huginn with a arazu mate hasnt made life miserable for a nano***?
The problem is: you very very rarely come across a single nano***, there is always a big gang and that huginn dies fast. In fact on one memorable occasion we had a Pathetic Legion nano*** gang of 60+ zooming around our system... tell me what gang makeup would be capable of killing 20% of them? answer, another nano gang.
Hi whiney obviously ex Bruce alt. BTW I can almost guarantee that we have never had a 60+ man nano gang as in what you guys interperit a nano ship to be. Yes I've seen a few random 20 man vaga/nano gangs go out but we usually change fits to something that will annoy you more when we hit 20 guys in a gang.

If you're thinking about something larger, like 25+ ships or so, then you're looking at a skirmish: larger numbers of people who actualyl want to have a mini fleet fight. I'm pretty sure no one is refering to those numbers, as you want to meet another opposing blob. IF that blobs bigger, then you chose the wrong time to attack (enemies prime time) or a bigger alliance. If that's so, then ya, maybe you should lose.
So your confirming that you think the larger blob should always win? Yea that's exactly why I play a game and try to think tactically to confront larger fleets than my own, just so I can be guaranteed to lose or not engage...
