Rigs were a first step, lets finish the set and get some missile range enhancers for our lows, thanks!

not such a great idea, the rigs give you more than enough flexibility. missile range at all levels matches if not exceeds what you would expect from a gun doing the same task.

all three gun types have range from rigs and low slots AND mid slots, missile users can't have a low slot?

come on.

Didn't they already announce TD/TE will affect missiles soon?

Yes, also TC. It got pushed back while they rebalance it.

It has to do with range and tracking differences.
+30% stacking penalized tracking from scripted TC wouldn't make nearly as much difference for missiles than for guns. There are already 20% nonstacking penalized exp radius/velocity rigs, and missiles still hit like crap.
+30% range for hams/torps in one mod would be OP, while doing nothing for Cruise/hmls.

Expect percentages to be tweaked before rolling out.

You're comparing apples and oranges. Go learn something about EVE before offering ideas.
