When I want to fit a 400mm armour plate on a frigate there are sacrifices to be made (micro power aux units and power diags). When I want a 1600 plate (or large shield extender) on a cruiser there are sacrifices to be made also.
Armor plates are a really really good reason for the pg changes actually.
armor plates > shield extender, and sorry frigs with 1k armor aren't funny..... unless you can get a frig with 1k shield too.
The grid changes fixes a few problems with fitting issues, it's a good change. |

Why is that? The armour plates have a grid requirement, I haven't heard anybody complaining about that number so far. It seems to me you are simply complaining about a clever use of a balanced system to produce a well armoured frigate.
My point is, there's a lot of modules with unbalanced fitting reqs, which can unrightly be used by frigs, when they shouldn't.
PG changes fixes that.
And yes, armor plates should require a lot more pg anyway. 500grid for 1600plates is a joke. |
