OK I will respond to you

I did respond to your suggestion,
although it showed a complete lack of understanding.

I have already got choices if i want a stronger ship.
As I told you earlier, if you bothered to read anything you did not write.

The imicus will do easy lvl4 and is a good lvl3 ship

The Velator is the most basic fit possible

I will go further and say that

There is no finer ship to teach you how to handle spaceships like a pro

It is a bare knuckle ride that works

Eve will be very much poorer for eliminating a whole class of ships
and replacing them with nothing

It is no coincidence that an advanced pilot can go back to lvl2 missions
and have lots of fun.
It was because of game balencing.

The dear old makers of eve had a deep understanding of everythings relationship to eachother.

They, I guess, were sacked for not being greedy.
Now we have stabs in the dark.
People with no respect for eves traditions or mechanics who just want quick fixes
to make people like them


The velator will still be the most basic ship available. As per the rookie ship buff thread:

Velator Role Bonus:
10% bonus to hybrid turret damage
20% bonus to drone hitpoints, damage and mining yield
10% bonus to Remote Sensor Dampener effectiveness
15% bonus to Armor Repairer effectiveness

So it's actually losing 15% hybrid damage with this change but gaining elsewhere. But these are role bonuses, not per level bonuses, so it will still be less effective than any other frigate in the lineup. In fact, they explicity said that they don't want it to perform at the level of the t1 frigates.

Which is all superfluous because it still comes back to my original point; you can still pick the weakest ship possible and try to do something difficult with it. Again, new, better challenges await.

ohhh.....well this will be fun:

The Ibis is a common and versatile Frigate provided to all Caldari pilots free of charge.

Traits
Special Abilities:
20% bonus to Small Hybrid Turret optimal range
10% bonus to missile kinetic damage
30% bonus to ECM Target Jammer strength
10% bonus to shield resistances

Development
The Caldari Ibis frigate is a small but stout frigate that fits admirably well as a cargo hauler or small-scale miner. Its reliability makes it a good choice for novice ship captains.

Edit:

Ship is

22 PG
0 calibration

Can fit 2 turret or 2 launcher

5 mb/s drone bandwith
