Originally by: TheG2 Sorry, I was referencing Battleships with large blasters, not medium ships which have more maneuverability. Regardless of what you've posted, the ship will have enough speed to easy coast within the required range for it's blasters to be within or near optimal range. Once within the range yourself, you can web and cut the enemies MWD yourself.
the enemies MWD
Nobody is suggesting there is an issue attacking other MWD boats, because there isn't one. Against AB boats, replace that last step with 'you can web and sit there as they AB away while you are stuck with base speed'. -

Originally by: Jinx Barker All HACs?
What about Drone HACs or the Amarrian Missile boats? I would guess those will go up/or stay the same.
A non nano ishtar is rather crap.
Not really. The fact that you believe this shows the problem with nanos in the first place.
Also: Web nerf. Consider it.
You can bring these "nerfed" HACs (which will still probably get 2~2.5km/s) into web range now without it being suicide.
Inties can fight in web range, still getting 50%~ of their speed... web range is no longer suicide. Maybe assault frigates get a role now. HACs can fight close range and still run. You still need a 24k point to tackle effectively, and the room to fit a point AND a scram AND a web.. is nonexistant.
If they have a web, you can probably still MWD. If they have a scram, you get your full speed, minus the MWD, without a web.
Either way, close range is no longer suicide for small ships.
This is good.
You know what's wrong with cruiser active tanking?
Doesn't have the buffer for it and you need buffer for it, active tanking usually revolves around taking damage while repairing some of it to slow down the loss of hp, in very few cases you tank all damage. With 2000 armor you don't have this buffer. You dont have the structure buffer either
You have this on a BC.

Originally by: APEXrevived agreed xaen. i do not believe there is a rampant inbalance regarding nano setups. there are plenty of counters to my vagabond.
it's very dangerous change for not a good enough reason. please see SWG Combat Upgrade
Plz see gankageddon nerf,plz see EWAR nerf,plz see nos nerf,plz see fitting torps to cruisers and cruise missles to frigate nerf,i could go on.
Guess what the game still grows,so GTFO out of EvE if you cant adapt.
And if you dont think there is an imbalance to nanos you are one seriously deluded person.

Edited by: GallenteCitizen20080615 on 25/07/2008 21:44:35 wow that 0.0 firght you are describing isnt right
our allaince hasnt had the need to use a cap for almost a week and we been doing fleet or small gang warfare
50 man non cap fleet head to us and that was fun 
P.S the "nano nerf" doesnt effect player that didnt pick it as there flavour of the month hell we had a small nano HAC gang that has a crap FC as we killed them all with a bunch of sniper megas, couple of rapiers and curses and all 22 of then died =)
dont even tell me it cant be done, because it can and i never picked NANO as i prefer to actually have something on my armour other than bubble paper

one thing i will say is ccp should have come out a year ago and said they were taking a good hard look at speed tank/nanos before we got to this point then boom hey too bad we are changing it.
many will cheer many will cry some will adapt and eve will go on in the end.

No way! (But mainly because if I do that, I start repping my enemies, and that's generally a bad idea as I understand it… )

Also: WTS: a bunch of Drakes, Myrms, Harbingers and Feroxes (Feroxi?) 
I believe the correct plural would be 'Feroces'
Though 'Faeces' would be considered an acceptable alternative in some circles.

Originally by: TheG2 Edited by: TheG2 on 25/07/2008 18:13:22 I predict you'll be about as accurate as my local weather man (not very).
And that, is a prediction you can count on. Thanks for watching, stay classy San Diego.
Optimal range for a medium blaster w/void is about 3.2km. And without a web and a scram the transversal on the target ship is going to be too high to hit.
And with Null you can have an optimal of 5.6 plus a falloff of 7.5, certainly a hittable range. You do realise that there is more then one type of ammo right?

- HACs become useless. The price of them will plummet.
- Modest loss of subscriptions. Let's be honest, there are more Raven flying Mission runners than anything.
- Significant increase in drake and drone boat prices, sales, and usage.
- Arazus are going to double in price if they haven't already.
- The price of Snakes drops by 40% or more.
- The prices of Slaves increase by 30% or so.
- The prices of Centurions increase by 30% or more.
- Combat recons get cheap, and useless, fast.
Stick around and see how accurate I am!
Those points seems fairly unlikely.
lol what a noob arazu already doubled in price. thx for input though.

Originally by: Xaen Combat recons get cheap, and useless, fast.
While some of your "predictions" have been around for months if not years I find it hard to believe a scrambler buff would lessen use of the Lachesis. Further I doubt the Huginn will become less popular now that you need more webs to achieve the same effect and an increase in spider tanking can only be a good thing for the Curse.
The Rook of course is a somewhat special case thanks to basically being a non-covert-cloaking Falcon.

Maybe if xaen didnt post the forcast in such a neutral or negative toned manner it would have not drawn the crowd of haters as it did.

Awesome. This is the best part. I really hope you're right, I can't wait until my HAC prices drop because people think they suck.
Quote: Combat recons get cheap, and useless, fast.
Combat recons are ALREADY cheap and useless, thanks to force recons being so much better. How much cheaper than "you'd have to pay me to fly one" can you get?
