^^^^ This, very much, and cap draw.

How will the Geddon changes influince Redeemers? Before I get one.

37.5 km range to heavy neut is bad... How will you tackle those things?

Also, did CCP Fozzie gave you permission to do those awful things?

As long as this does not mean that there is no chance of a Khanid T2 Abaddon, I will accept these Armageddon changes.

I will buy 3 from you at 3/4s current market value (hull value only, don't want your rigs and mods)

long range point arazu?

Yo baddie, resistance bonus is extremely overpowred and has been in need of a nerf since implementation. 4% instead of 5% is a mandatory change that has been needed forever.

I'm quite happy that CCP has finally listened to me and a few others in the community in regards to this proposal.

Looks like a pretty significant nerf to the range the apoc because of the need to fit cap mods instead of tracking computers. PVP fits can potentially go to boosters for burst cap if they're not using those already, but cap stable fits don't have that option. The tracking bonus means switching from TCs to batteries or cap rechargers, which would be a wash except that without scripted tracking computers it can't hit nearly as far.

Scary until I EFT the specifics. The navy variant will still work, but if these changes are mirrored on that balance pass pulse damage projection to 90km+ with Scorch will be out. It's nice to see Beams will be more fittable, but Tachyons at that range don't have the same punch (mostly because Scorch is so good).

That said, the theoretical meta for Lasers was always their cap use and the cap use bonus basically just negated that so this will add some flavor (even if it means I end up switching to hybrids or something).

Looks interesting otherwise. I'm looking forward to seeing what I can build with the new geddon.

Edit:
Those saying to throw on a TE or a rig: I appreciate the attempt to help, but did you think there were empty slots for those things?? Sure you can sort of get the range back with those, but you're giving up either significant buffer or significant damage to do it. For my needs reducing the buffer is not possible because of alpha, and if I have to reduce damage I might as well switch to tachyons or a different ship.

I just feel that the neut range is more for a disruption BS. Just saying. Arbitrator is the cruiser sized TD hull. Curse/Pilgrim both have the neut range bonus with the TD bonus.

Neut range is great for all the neuts except heavy neuts. With a base range of 25.2km for T2 heavy neuts I just don't see the bonus being useful. 25.2km is still beyond point range. What is the point of trying to neut something I can't even point? I think a 5% neut amount, not as much as the bhaalgorn, but still enough to make a difference would be better. Then I could see people really wanting to fly the Geddon, especially solo and such.

This bonus can be useful, but most of the time I will be wishing for something else. I loved the geddon as it was. I felt there was little to change except EHP/cap/mobility things. I will be sad to see it gone.
