I agree, the Myrmidon went from being the number one Gallente ship to not so good in anything. If youÆre going to use drones, then you might as well get an Ishtar. If youÆre going to use blasters, then you might as well use the Brutix. The Myrm is still a good ship but it lost itÆs purpose in everything. They are not welcome in large fleet operations, they are not really usefull in missions compared to anything else and for ratting, might as well use the Ishtar.
IÆm not saying, that CCP should bring it back to how it was before with itÆs unmatched firepower, tanking abilities and drone capabitlies but at least make it strong in something. Right now the Myrmdidon doesnÆt shine in anything, it does everything but since most ship specialize in something, the Myrm is a weakness to all.
Sounds like a minmatar ship to me and looks like a baby naglfar. Maybe add some rust so it fits in with the other minmatar ships. I propose that myrmidon gets transferred to minmatar and gallente can have the cyclone. Verticality>shaving tool.

I don't know exactly how I feel about this, I feel that it is a good ship if fit properly but it is severely outclassed by other ships. It would seem as
if the brutix is simply a better ship. The medium drone nerf does not really effect the myrm that much. I would like to see its bandwith boosted (along
with the Eos's to 100. To balance this maybe reduce the turret slots to 4? My ideal myrm would instead of rep amount bonus recieve resist bonus and have
6 highs still but only 4 turrets and 100 bandwith, same drone bay. I don't know if this would be imbalanced but meh...

If anyone should be crying over their BCs it's the Caldari - both of theirs are tanky with a limited damage bonus on one.
Matar, Gallente and Amarr all have a gank/damage BC and a Tank BC. Having a BC that, as you say, tanked and ganked like a BS is inherently unbalanced.
It is still insanely powerful if flown right and has one of the best slot layouts available to any ship.
Er, the only thing the Myrm has in tanking over a Brutix is an extra lowslot. In rebuttal to your arguments, nobody is suggesting that the Myrm return to its original power. However, the OP fails to mention that pre-nerf when doing ~900dps the Myrm had practically no tank, and when tanking 1700dps (seems a tad high from my memory, I'd say it was 1000ish dps max) is was employing the same passive shield tank Drakes still field with all its disadvantages in PvP.
Right now the Myrm is dead last compared to the other Tier2 BCs, and even the Brutix (a Tier1 BC) outclasses it.

Indeed. The myr was purpose fit. Either all tank, or all gank. 1700DPS would be a T2 fit passive myr with two faction invulns pre-pre-nerf. The thing was ultra uber at the time, and nearly uncrackable (you needed to train Friends to lvl 5). Thank god it never made it to the point where gang bonuses and overloading could be applied.

You sir are mistaken. You see, Ogre II's have never effectively hit cruisers in PvP (except when webbed). I am actually dependant on this as I spend most of my time piloting cruiser sized ships going after ratters utilizing Ogre IIs.

Jack of all trades and master of none. It must be minmatar indeed. Did you say it was vertical too?
How dare Gallante steal minmatar technology.
