Pretty much. After a quick flail, the Armageddon is, as feared, MASSIVELY dangerous.

GG CCP.

Seeing as my last post apparently never made it into the thread, I guess I'll just state what many others have already said:

1. As far as resists on the Abaddon, they need to stay at the current 5% per level. The ship was underbalanced overall to begin with due to fitting. I'm not saying that you can't fit it properly with skills, just that compared to other races it was not up to par in that respect. A fitting/pg/cap fix would be nice, but the resist needs to stay. The Abaddon is meant to have great resist bonuses and decent damage, and the 5% resist nerf is bad form. *I realize that it is nerf across the board to all classes, but seriously this nerf was terrible to begin with.

2. A BS level drone boat sounds ok, but did anyone really want that for Amarr?

3. Neut/NOS BS for Amarr seems silly. Or, changing an existing hull to this seems silly at least.

What I'm getting at mainly is that the existing Amarr ships being changed in such an extreme fashion is a terrible change. Ship roles for Amarr could have a bit done to them in QoL changes, but the proposed changes seem like they were shotgunned out for us. The resist bonus change is awful. On the other hand, fixing large turrets is a step in the right direction so far. Fitting doesn't need to be made easy, but we should be able to at least fit our big guns without ridiculous amounts of mods to PG/cap. Oh, and once again I'll state that the Abaddon's resist bonus nerf is a bad idea. It's meant to have staying power, meaning a large tank. Look at individual ships, blanket changes are never a good idea.

I'm stuck at work for the time being, which is unfortunate.

What fits were you trying? All Neuts?

If so, how did fittings go... and how did your cap hold up?

I'm really curious on this one, as it can be fit so many different ways.

(By the way, you might explain this in more detail for those that think Neuts are useless.)

Captains Log Day 7: Morale is wearing thin, crew mates are at each others throats, where is CCP Kil2? has he abandoned us completely? Signs point to yes...

You contended that we already have such a ship in the Amarr line. When I pointed out how different they are in capabiity and style of combat, your response is "I don't care about difference."
By the way, no, I don't have a problem with the Bhaalgorn. It's a great ship that fits it's role very well indeed. Your simply trying to deflect the conversation away from the fact that you don't actually have a point.

As to your assertion that developers, with a very strong background in EvE PVP, shouldn't have a hand in balancing combat vessels is perhaps the most innane comment I've seen in a very long time.

Who then "should" guide this effort? A player with extremely limited experience in PVP in general, and no verifiable experience with BS combat in particular?

Your posts got better for a while after you got called on this sort of nonsense, but now you're devolving into troll posts again.

PvP is not everything that is EVE. I'm saying this clear, because you, apparently, missed this point.
If you think, that only frag count matters, I'd rather stop reading your responces to save us both time and frustration.

Feel free. In return you can restrict yourself to comments that pertain to something you actually know something about.

I don't comment on things I don't know.

My experience of it is the opposite, bigger ships are easier to fit, high skils help though, so do implants, though after these changes that might not be the case for amarr ships. Hint 102% of power grid to fit tachyons.

Fine I am surprised CCP does not take forum moderation more serious you already called me several times with offending names plus your corporation name is highly suggestive. Yes I might have a broken sentence but at least I respect other people who give out healthy critisism and who actually care to read what another says before replying to them.
