We don't even have Tier 2 destroyers hulls. I don't see Tech 3 destroyers coming soon.

I doubt it. I like my T3, but I don't like that I don't even have to think about whether or not to use them. They should be sub par to specialized ships, but be more adaptable. Currently they are more adaptable and often also better than the specialized ships, so why on earth would I fly something else, if my wallet can take it? A mix of T3 ability nerfs and boosts to specialized hulls should be enough to bring things in line and at least make using them a bit less obvious choice in some cases.

I could be in a tengu in less than an hour, but i refuse too.

I agreeee. I love the Tengu most and I hope there are never any new T3 ships added even in seven billion years.

I am pretty sure worm hole people, new players, and other veterans would disagree with you. Thanks for your opinion though.

no, more tier 3's would just obsolete even more ships, i eman, holy crap, think of the ridiculous amount fo DPS a NORMAL destroyer can get, now slap some T3 specialties on that mofo, you LITERALLY have an "i kill everything" ship.

your RIGHT, 700mil should buy you a ship that will NEVER outperform ANYTHING, it amkes perfect since, paying more for less, with the threat of insta-losing SP if you dont eject in time, is TOTALY gonna make people want to even own a T3 of any kind.

For the person who said make them more adaptable but less efficient at specific roles. Only if you are able to change roles instantly anywhere in space with ease. Otherwise being able to dock and change roles is the same as switching to a new ship.

the art for tech 3 frigates is rumored to be done, I'd like to see that. frigates as expensive as battleships, cool.

I would like to see new kinds of tech 1 destroyers. In particular Aegis destroyers. Please support my proposal.

Tactical destroyers... I'll take a dozen Gallente, please.

I don't see the need for Tech 3 destroyers.

I would, however, like to see tier 2 destroyers. Pirate

Right you mean tier 3 then ...right?

I also heard that the next T3 ship was going to be the frigates (aka awesomsauce and who needs assault ships anyway?)... but that might have been an expansion or 2 ago and maybe not on the burner any more?

Also, CCP stated they want to balance the Destroyers before doing anything else... ie make the Amarr/Caldari worth a crap I think. That was in regards to changing the skill tree but would think that would also apply to any new potential hulls which I have heard nothing about... right?

I'd like to see Tier 2 and Tier 3 Destroyers, to be released before, or at the same time, as the Destroyer skill split..

But no, we don't need Tech 3 destroyers at this time.

Ah yes,

A Tech 3 flycatcher with 8 highs (6-8 launchers slots and/or 1-2 turret slots), six mids and 2 lows and enough fittings for a 10MN AB! Throw in a high grade Halo set and a Loki booster and it will be a platinum tear machine.

CCP dooooo iiiiiitttttttt! NAO!

Normal destroyers should be a stepping stone or do you not see that? T3 cruisers are not a kill everything ship so I do not see your point.

Yup. T3 destroyers and frigates are the answer to a question nobody is asking.

No more ships unification, t3 cruisers are awesome, but meny other ship got less usage since CCP introduce t3 cruisers, you want kill all nice destroyers and interdictors, aslo i say no for t3 frigates, because we got a lot of specific roles small frigates, like assault ships, electronic frigates, interceptors even mining firgates.

Is really easy to add new ships, but is hard to balance them while we got a lot good old ships.
