As far as I can tell this will change the way fighters can hit sub caps. I am looking for input as far as being able to hit battleships in a PvP and PvE setting. Are fighters slotted to be a T1 fighter bomber now only good vs capitals/structures? Is this the end of any kind of combat role for a carrier and pushing them into a logistical triage role with no other options? I know CCP wanted to nerf the way super carriers can take out sub caps but this seems to nerf normal carriers too much IMO. This is not meant as a rant. I am just trying to understand the nerf to fighters. What will fighters be good for and will there be any reason to use them over a fighter bomber?

Ignoring the obvious facts (not going to happen anyway) you are aware that you can't assign bombers to people right?

Clearly bombers are terrible as well

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

AT about page 55, CCP Tallest recsended this nerf. It will no longer go into effect.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

Unfortunately the blue tag doesn't take directly to the DEV post or better yet filter to just show you just the DEV posts.
It would make responses a lot easier to find.

Well they updated the original post with a link to that post, so it's not THAT hard to find really.

You are right. How often have you seen that happen over the past year though?

Competency...from my CCP? It is more likely, when the media dogs are at their heels, than you think.
