Meridius Dex Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2008.07.28 19:57:00 - [1] I've been reading a lot on the upcoming changes and trying to imagine the various ways in which they'll affect PvP, from frigates to battleships. I can already see several fits of mine which will change post-patch. What I'm curious to hear is which particular ships do you think will most likely fit ABs now over MWDs? And what classes of ships (if any) would altogether benefit from dropping MWDs? -- Meridius Dex -- Amarr = EVE on Hard setting
Meridius Dex Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2008.07.28 21:28:00 - [2] One fitting I'm definitely excited about is my 200+ DPS Ganksader having a MWD plus the new scram. I can scream into Gatling laser range, then both point the target and kill his MWD with one mod! I didn't catch that they were reducing mass on AFs. Is that really happening? If so, then ABs would make AFs both the ultimate enemy BS tacklers and friendly BS escorts. You still wouldn't chase after nano ships with an AB AF, but you could stick near to your own bigger buddies and keep the gnats off them -- should things go south and they have to escape. -- Meridius Dex -- Amarr = EVE on Hard setting
Meridius Dex Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2008.07.29 01:48:00 - [3] Edited by: Meridius Dex on 29/07/2008 01:48:20 Originally by: Nova Fox I wonder if people know that the implementation of these speed nerfs/patch isnt going to be for a long while, like possibly this winter expansion or something. It would suck mightily if that were the case. I expect as with most of these things that implementation would follow after a few weeks (a month?) of testing. I mean, I've been on Sisi a few times this past week for the first time in like, ever, to practice setting up my first POS. Most of the time there's hardly anyone on the test server. Oftentimes when I log in, it looks like less than a hundred. Certainly most of those people, like me, are doing their own projects. How much possible player testing could CCP get? I have a feeling they are most of the way there on this thing, after their own deliberations and in-house testing. Much of the player 'testing' that goes on I suspect will be window-dressing. Barring a vast and overwhelming opposition to this (which by all accounts is not the case), I'd expect these changes sooner rather than later. After all, CCP has Ambulation on the way and that's what they are banking on to expand their subscriber base. Don't expect speed balancing to drag on long enough to muck up the launch of Ambulation. -- Meridius Dex -- Amarr = EVE on Hard setting
