Caldari now take 25% more damage and deal 20% less damage in PVP.

Say WHAT?

Drake will be losing it's OP shield bonus.

Additionally Heavy Missiles are getting their range NERFD INTO THE GROUND and a 20% off the top cut on damage.

I guess that means We need more Falcons? =)

Now with 100% less Troll.

there is a dedicated thread for that

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

"Into the ground" is at least 100km for the Earth. (100km is the semi-official distance from the ground to the start of outer space.) So running missiles into the ground from orbit would be an improvement.

You may want to use a different metaphor?

I know Tom 99.9999% trolls, so can someone point to the actually informative thread on whatever this is about.

oh no... your HML's will have a base range of 60 km's instead of 80 km's, and do less damage, but you can now use tracking enhancers and computers to increase their effective damage and range.... How horrible...

Now apologise to the caracal for that godawful post.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

The Caracal with 30 km HAMs and the fittings to get them on the ship, plus four mid slots to do the same with TEs?

I will not apologize to a Caracal, that can no longer send HML's 125 km's, but only 95 km's, unless I fit TE or TC's.
I will not apologize to a Caracal, that gets 2 extra lows and enough PG to properly fit itself.
I will not apologize to a Caracal, that does 350 dps to 30-40 km's with HAMS. and doesn't need to deal with tracking.
I will not apologize to a Caracal, that suddenly does almost 2km/s without propulsion upgrade modules/rigs.
I will not apologize to a Caracal, that does full damage with all missiles, and not just for kinetic damage...

Confirming Drakes are the only possible Caldari PvP ship

Blatant alt posting? In my EVE? It's more likely than you think.

Because Caldari ships have lots of low slots and spare mids...

The Blackbird is gaining +1 low for 3 low slots...(although I doubt it will use it for TEs)
The Caracal is gaining +2 low slots for 4 low slots...(Which is looking like a really awesome new ship!!)
The Moa has 4 low slots already.... (and who knows how CCP will change it)
Osprey is irrelevant to this discussion...
The CNI has 4 low slots already.... (and who knows how CCP will change it)
The ONI is pretty much a nerfed version of the new Caracal (only 3 low slots), and I garauntee it will receive changes to come.
