Legion getting any love for the Winter expansion? Was hoping for some Inferno changes, but still nothing yet.

It's more likely that the tengu and loki will just get nerfed to bring them more in line with the legion and proteus.

There are going to be fitting reductions for a good portion of medium energy weapons. Not specifically for the Legion, but still better then the HML nerf that's going to slightly hurt the Tengu.

This and also HAM's being effected by Guided Missile Precision, No T2 HAM Penalties and getting a 10% HAM Grid reduction doesn't hurt it either.

They're already in line, the problem is Zealots and Curses actually beeing viable hulls to play.

I forgot about that. All in all, no direct buffs to the Legion, but it's getting some love in the form of weapon system buffs.

It's hardly a "problem", but I understand what you mean. So the real problem is that some of other races' T2 cruisers (Caldari HACs, looking primarily at you) are lacking atm.

Though it seems situation won't change this winter. Later something is expected to be changed as CCP stated that they want T3s to have some unique roles instead of being sturdier HAC/recon analogues, for the most part. But such overhauls won't come really soon I believe.

With all that said, in wormholes Proteus is farily popular and Legion too, being effectively expencive, but beefy Zealot or Pilgrim, depending on configuration, can make difference being fielded instead of T2 ships.

Future of T3 cruisers - multi-tool they aspired to be instead of sledgehammer they have become

IMO it's more or less this. Not just Caldari though, the entire HAC line needs somewhat of an overhaul. Ishtar needs looser fittings and a shift from mids to lows or lows to mids so that it can use DDU's effectively. More too but gotta go to work now ;P

Buff HAC EHP, speed and fittings

Also, Tengu and Loki would need a buff to be in line with Legion and Proteus.
