Is there anything more annoying than wanting to try a new ship out and you start with a plan like "i want this to be on" to end up after several frustrated attempts with "oh well at least its half what i wanted" to sometimes even "WTF is this ****?"

Well now ive found it, i have found the ship in eve that has the BIGGEST fitting challenges onboard and that is the Worm.

Being a frigate already ofc limites the ship, i understand that. BUT why on earth did they tighten the grip on this ships power and cpu so much??

The ships bonus implies you use either rocket or standard missile launchers but alread there you are screwed. If you like me wants to shoot past 10k with missiles you end up with a ship fit thats so nerfed to what you could easily fit on another ship that its pointless to even bother! And usually ships either struggle powergrid or cpu problems but this ship ends up quickly with both when you try to buff the ships other bonus, the shield.

i.....cant begin to understand what this ship is meant to do in eve but clearly ccp wanted this ship to just be a expensive puzzle of fitting challenge and so far i have not beat that challenge..... not even with All Skills V and implants....

Gotta a cap stable shield boost with standards x2 and ecm drones mwd and scram maybe if I had some more training in Sep upgrades I could get another launcher or even ANY other hi slot. Was best I could do at the time tho
