Navgeddon will be less Fatty Mc Fat Fat. (400m sig)

Are you mad because the Mega is now OP or?

Powercreep is always something to keep an eye on, but while the ship stats are higher in isolation, the worst offenders of today are nothing compared to 5-6 years ago. 10km/s polycarbed/snaked...

Got stats?

It's pretty funny to see some of the same people who were GRRR TIER 3S defending the mach.

Apparently only that kind of performance is only OP when poor people can do it.

That's the problem with reading the books that started a sub-genre long after they were published. Neuromancer is of it's time. (I'd argue his newer stuff is better, I particularly like the Bigend...

Pity the mach isnt going to be balanced around no damage mod, t1 ammo using fits.

Also LOL at using arty for dps arguments.

Dat consensus. ;)

Aren't you pleased that they'll be cheaper after they're nerfed?

Since price is a part of the balancing factor.

As said above, they're expensive because they good. They don't cost intrinsically more than the other pirate BS to produce.

250.

Don't forget those 5 Lokis.

It's got considerably less fittings than the Maelstrom, one turret less too sure, but one extra slot overall. You can't fit armor tank + arties even before you put the cap injector on or stick...

My weekend starts in 202 minutes.

You've pissed someone in the house right off. They've hidden a dollop of jam or honey somewhere to cause exactly this effect.

The Gallente BS are looking a hell of a lot better tbh. I don't think either the Domi or the Hype need any more help whatsoever. The Mega is sort of in the same place as the Tempest only not so bad.

The problem with mach/cyna is that you don't have to make any compromises. You can fit top tier everything, dual prop, actually use the utility highs and have a great drone bay. Plus the speed,...

Reassuring

Trade you for Joe Biden?

What you describe is pretty much what navy ships generally are.

EVE does have such ships; the new T1 Basic Domi, the new CNR, the new Apoc & Napoc all spring to mind here. All of them have improved tracking (or the equivalent). Should the Fleet Pest fill a...

Nope.

They're all pretty powerful, single purpose ships. Honestly I'm not keen on the idea of navy versions.

I'm not totally averse to the +scan res idea. I'll trail it past kil2 and see what he says. Christ knows it's not the best BS at anything else, it should at least be able to lock the fastest.

So wouldn't it be easier to just give the FPest a high base scan res rather than faff about with role bonuses?

I wasn't arguing that it should be let alone, just that there's no consensus about a clear and obvious upgrade, so any change will piss off far more people than it pleases.

What should a tempest...
