A simple idea for the Golem

Why does the Golem not receive the Marauder 100% role bonus to Rapid Heavy Launchers as well? Is there any reason that they can't be used on this ship? They are a battleship sized missile launcher, and they would allow different styles of PVE other than parking 200km from an anom and counting cruise volleys for 20 minutes without taking any damage at all. An RHM fit Golem could be a more close range ship that could deal with smaller ships exceptionally well with its' bonuses and target painters, and this would allow it to complete sites/missions much faster, as well as make the infamous PVP Golem more viable.

What stops you to actually fit and use them? Lack of bonus? Be a real man and use axe for shaving. Hardcore style, no silly barbie bonuses.

Perhaps the entire point was to make sure RHM/TP Golems aren't a thing.

Golem does get the 100% role bonus to RHMLs.


Caldari Battleship bonuses (per skill level):
10% bonus to Cruise Missile and Torpedo max velocity
5% bonus to Cruise Missile and Torpedo explosion velocity
Marauders bonuses (per skill level):
7.5% bonus to Shield Booster amount
10% bonus to Target Painter effectiveness
Role Bonus:
100% bonus to Heavy Missile, Cruise Missile and Torpedo damage
100% bonus to Tractor Beam range and velocity
70% reduction in Micro Jump Drive reactivation delay
• Can fit Bastion modules

HOWEVER, what it DOES NOT give is the application and range bonuses.

I have a simple idea: lets not give out these type of bonuses. The rapid launchers are powerful enough without them.
