25% decrease in EHP and being limited to fighters and fighter bombers (no conventional drones) was what I heard.

If anyone knew then it would be against the NDA to tell you.

If only fb's would be able to lock on to capital warpcores, that would be the best of any "nerf". The ship class isnt that overpower exept that 20m ehp is lol but them damm fbs that just pops anything and that stupid sensor strenght..

The exact extent of the changes are surely against the NDA, the ones I mentionned simply came from Soundwave's mouth during PAX. I imagine the final balance will be similar to this but of course, until there is an official statement it's mere conjecture.

I think we all know the answer here is nerf hybrids.

This!

Seriously the most commonly used supercarrier: gallente.. what do gallente use, hybrids. So clearly they must be nerfed.

At the same time, the Hel is the least used so we must buff minmatar and projectiles.

Yes, because we are devs. I mean if they're not balanced, just remodel them so they have equal weight on all sides. Shouldn't be too hard. Cool

I heard them say they were only changing numbers on the ship?

So may mean an EHP reballance, maybe a max target count, jump range, drone bay size or the physical size of the ships themselves to make them alot larger

Srsly doubt they would alter the drone bay to only allow fighters and FBs.

Of course an EHP nerf will hit the Hel the hardest, and unless they change the Hel for the better, it'll still be the most useless SC

Supercarriers will no longer be able to use any module except a small energy neutraliser.
You heard it here first.
