I have a claymore. It goes 8k/sec with an oversized mwd on, after the patch. Cruise from a manticore STILL hit it for 200 a pop (even though they're too slow to catch it haha). I severely doubt they suck that ****ing bad against cruisers, and you should be using drones against frigs anyway. As with any major balancing patch, you have to work around the new issues that the balancing creates. Missile users have to find new ways of achieving the same damage, nano users have to find new ways of achieving the same damage avoidance / tanking ability. Adapt or die!

Joe Anyone expecting to go out there in a t1 raven will be having a rough time of it.
Joe anyone should train some more skills or stick to doing level 3's until he has enough SP to use missiles properly (they still work surprisingly!)

Try using an AB. Should cut down that incoming damage a bit.
I had a poke about with missiles on sisi a couple of days ago. The only problem I had hitting with a cruise raven on a cruiser sized ship was with a haloed ab vaga going full speed (~1300m/s). Your mission cruiser rats are definitely not going 1300m/s on ab and I can almost guarantee you they have a bigger sig than the vaga. Target painters also made a massive difference to damage in that case, more so than a web.
You could always try target painting drones if you're not willing to replace tank with a TP, but you have so many options available to you to improve your damage output vs. small targets it isn't even funny - web drones, target painter drones, explosion velocity rigs, explosion radius rigs, damage drones, better skills, hardwirings, the list goes on. You could even team up with someone else and run missions with a friend with a target painter on, but god forbid people play multiplayer in an MMO right?

Just a quick one I dunno if you've tested them after the patch but they're ****ing **** vs. cruisers and above

Flying nanoes was actually rather hard and required a modi****of skill at times when coupled with lag.
Just sayin.
Stupid bob, nano***s are all noskill pvpers who fit their ships to do one thing, run away when they get shot at

Yes. It's also true that players feel they shouldnt pay for the right to do QA's job on SiSi just so they'll have a working game.
QA should have done their job, balancing should have done their job. They failed.
Come to think of it, they seem to fail a rather large percentage of the time.
See, here I understood the Nano-nerf to be a mild scaling-down of MWD speeds and snake bonuses. Somehow that morphed into a draconian campaign against all speed mods, battleship tracking, drones, and missiles.
I think I can be forgiven for being unpleasantly surprised.
It wasn't a nano nerf, it was a speed re-adjustment, and along with that comes changes to everything affected by speed changes which INCLUDES missile damage and gun / drone tracking.
I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised by CCP this time, viva la Quantum Rise!
