Didn't CCP say at fanfest we were going to see the extreme rigs in inferno? For things like 100km sniper frigates and stuff like that with huge 75% negative impacts... i was soooo excited about these, but i havent seen them hit SISI yet...

Were these abandoned? Or just not coming for Inferno again?

This is the first time I've heard of that.

Yes, give us a +100% damage rig with these drawbacks. I'll be sure to fit the next marauder I fly with one of these and do the damage of twelve guns with just three. Twisted

Nothing was mentioned about Inferno. They suggested they wanted to make certain extreme rigs with the objective being to get frigates in to tactical roles. Right now to run a tracking disruptor frigate you pretty much need a minimum of 50km in order to kite the light drone swarms. That's not an option with current frigate locking range.

An unfit Crucifier beats 50km targeting range with only level 2 of Long Range Targeting. A Sentinel needs a Signal Amplifier to beat 50km, but it has the exact same TD bonus and one fewer rig slot (meaning: less potential TD optimals).

Sure, but consider both stacking penalty and a 75% penalty to powergrid use per gun.
