Honestly i don't think this is the "right" way to fix it.

The titans should present a viable threat to an enemy fleet.


CCP could maybe implement some mechanics that would allow Titan to damage/destroy all ships on the grid.

Maybe even through a cyno?


I don't think that would be fair. The Titan would still attract some 'risk'.

I propose that all Titan pilots get the ability to kill any and all ships in EVE just by thinking about it. They wouldn't need to log in either.

This would totally balance Titans and fix the problems for Raiden and friends. Errrr, what was this thread about again?Twisted

Andski is doing some pro posting in here.

In the end, balance was required. People couldn't help themselves. Dictors will at least have a chance at being able to hold down groups of solo titans. Should be interesting times.

Balance yes, "quickfix" never.

Well everytime someone hops in a Titan you could give him a "You won eve, logging off now" popup that shuts down his eve....

That way they have still their endgame won, and don't disturb the 99.7% w/o Titan ;)

No, because ewar immunity is obviously needed and isn't unbalanced at all because,

Gonna need to change the avatar to not look like a dong, maybe make it an anus to symbolize these changes.

EDIT: or at least make it flaccid now

That's a damned fine point -- why isn't there a capship tier jammer? Like a Capital Ship ECM ship. Or a variant of the T3 Cruisers only with really overcharged jammers that can nail the bigger ships.

Capships would need a subcap escort to deal with this kind of counter (and this escort would require it's own counter, which would require it's own counter, which would in general, make for more balanced fleets).

That would definitely shake up the Capital ship endgame. Of course, it would also **** off people who were using the Titan blob crap since hey, what good is an invincible iWin button if there are actual counters to it?

because it'd be even cooler if EAS could do it

Tbh they are pretty funny. The avatar looks like a giant space ****. Go look up space**** on reddit, and you'll find "avatars" all over :evil:

Also, as has been said oh probably 1,000,000,000,001 times before, the only thing CCp needs to REALLY do is make a non-capital capital counter ship dedicated to only countering capitals. Done. Problem solved.

btw: counter.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

THIS IS AN INTERVENTION

I AM HERE FOR YOU, WE CARE ABOUT YOU.

You're addicted to posting on EVE-O, it's unhealthy, but we can work through this.

Check your posting history, it's scary, I'm genuinely worried for you, friend. 8 hours a day for at least the last week, posting at 5-10 minute intervals. That is not normal.

There's more to life than posting on an internet spaceship forum and there are avenues you can pursue to curb this.

PLEASE SEEK HELP.

WE CARE ABOUT YOU.

I think we need to give the Covetor a ship bonus: Mining a Super Capital Removes EWAR Immunity

That solves like 3 problems at once, use for a useless ship, removes stupid immunity, gets miners involved.
