Many good suggestions here. I personally love T1 cruisers so I am a bit biased, but I also love BC.
Im all for simple fixes that wont greatly upset many other things. The easiest thing to me would be either a increase in all cruiser speed (I dont think damage is a good idea - you can already get 500+ dps 700+ in some cases), or a slight change to BC tracking or perhaps speed. For instance, if you give BC a slight tracking penalty (or what is the missile version? ROF nerf?) they will have a harder time engaging frigs, dessies, and some cruisers depending on fit. It wont effect their usefulness against BS or most cruisers.
It just seems the problem with them now is that BC can wtfpwn frigs and dessies too easily. So their engagement envelope is too big.
Just my opinion. |

In addition to the dev tweets, there is this: http://eve-kill.net/?a=top20
And I know there are a lot of drake lovers here on the boards, but IMHO:
1. The current drake is not balanced. Its too good at everything. If one ship has twice as many kills as its next closest competitor, that is easy proof. Period.
2. The proposed changes (at least the ones that I last heard about) would make it completely imbalanced in pvp. Its an obscene damage buff, with only a very minor tank reduction (that would still put it on par with the buffer of the other BCs). I do agree that it would balance it out for some of the PVE issues, but that isnt the whole story.
I agree the drake needs changing, but the current proposal aint the right way to do it. Hopefully it gets rebalance with the rest of the alleged Tier changes coming up.
IMHO of course. |

As I fly mostly T1 cruiser and BC, I am all for a cruiser buff. EHP would be nice, speed would be nice. But buffing EHP, speed and damage all together would make them unbalanced, IMHO.
Remove the need to fit 1600mm plates for a decent tank (or change lower meta plates to give less ehp, but less mass penalty) and remove the speed penalty for most of the armor rigs (maybe not trimarks). That would go a long way toward helping armor cruisers.
Regardless, I am all for EHP buffs generally. EVE combat is too short. |
