Ships & Modules

I'm sorry for not being really constructive, but this idea is so stupid that I didn't find it in me to write a serious post about its inherent stupidity.

Did you create the toon today solely for this thread, or do you intend to use him for more trolling?

Anyways, what we really, really need is a Stealth Bomber that can fit several T2 1400 Howitzer arties instead of torpedo launchers. Like, you know, a nimble fast-locking alpha-monster cloaky in a frig hull. I doubt I'd fly anything else ever.

Destroyer hull with 8 medium guns.

it's called a buffer drake

RoF and optimal bonus on the Amarr version, so I could fit a full rack of Quad Light Beams and make the sky glow.

Speaking of which, buff the range on Quad Light Beams to at least match Dual Light Beams. So cruel, making the baddest looking turret in the game the least useful. Cruiser weapon out ranged by frigates.

Battleships with capital-class guns?

Yeaa, but you lose the bonuses.


Take an Abaddon...
Now give it 8 medium guns, and still give it a 5% bonus to damage per level. A role bonus of +50% to optimal (like the destroyers)
I think this would be like what he is talking about

Destroyers with medium guns are not needed. They already bristle with turrets, and have a huge optimal bonus.
Why go for a turret that does 2x damage, when you can fit 2x the number of turrets and maintain sig res and tracking.
The role bonus basically negates the range advantage of medium turrets (relative to small).


I've previously suggested removing the size restriction to bonuses.

If I want to undergun an Armageddon (ie fit mediums), It would be nice if I still got the ROF bonus (and the cap use bonus would be nice too, but not really needed).

This:
10% bonus to Large Energy Turret capacitor use and 7.5% bonus to Large Energy Turret optimal range per level.
becomes this:
10% bonus to Energy Turret capacitor use and 7.5% bonus to Energy Turret optimal range per level.

This:
10% bonus to Medium Hybrid Turret falloff per level and 5% bonus to Medium Hybrid Turret damage per level
becomes this:
10% bonus to Hybrid Turret falloff per level 5% bonus to Hybrid Turret damage per level
*good luck fitting the larges, but the smalls would work just fine

Ooooh, I kinda like that idea. :)

Actually I would like to see that the more I think about it. It's not guaranteed to hit, it deals instant damage, would be great for suicide ganking and adding cheap DPS on targets in gangs. I wouldn't mind seeing it, or at least one that can fit medium artilary that is bounused for damage and range. Fast, hard hitting, long range, fragile as can be, it be a fun ship.
