No, no and hell no.

You want the speed penalty higher, this why you use a long point and you can nail fast frigates and cruisers while their sig is still huge from the MWD being on.

Makes up for ****** tracking a bit.

Large neutrons go considerably past 10km my friend.


Mediums, yeah, TEx3 and null might scratch at 15, it makes me very sad. But hey, rails are worse, I have yet to fit T2 mediums to a PvP ship.....ever.

While I agree with your statement on this precise point, we must ask ourselves how can they make the blaster boat get in range, hold their targets and melt hem.

First they need the speed -"omagad it's Minmatar stuff what are your doing you bastards???"

So, they don't get the speed and how can you warp at 0 or even at 5km each and every time, how can you target fast enough (!!!) so scram it or disrupt/web so he can't go away? -impossible

Give range to blasters- "omagad it's Minmatar and Amarr tuff! GTFO my lawn!!!"

So no range for blasters that have hard time to reach their enemy, if they ever make it, at the meanwhile they're getting melted. Blaster were supposed to be the ones who melt tuff, I mean, I thought but I was clearly wrong.

So, we keep the crap range and the slow stuff. Great improvements indeed.

Just throwing out there the same idea I've already exposed in hybrids rebalance thread, no comming from me since I'm too lazy for it right?

Give Blasters ships some feature enabling those to "warp to" very short ranges, extremely cap consuming when you use it and only usefull on enemy target 'so you can't just use it to gtfo and if no scramed -can do it disrupted-

Because if you're in scram range you should be melting that ship.

Because not being able to use this feature on friendly targets wouldn't make mechanic feature abuses to gtfo and win

Because extremely cap consuming means you must use it wisely because you're not able to use it again soon, prob with CD so you can't just fit cap inj and run here run there at your wish, once you commit to some target you stay there and do your job.

I know this is not even close to be discussed and less ever a chance to be implemented, what do you guys think?

Tripple plated mega does better, it has just a bigger sign radius but can fit 7 neutrons.

lol, you are a funny one.

How so? Most players are going to run for it in a 1v1 even fight, anything you can do to make an engagement more likely (such as perception of superior ships/numbers) can slide a 30% chance 1 bc engages you to a 90% chance 2bc or 1bc + support will. I'm not necessarily talking vs multiple bc either, just multiple enemy players

Right, it's the same for any engagement. Which is why you want to be out of web/scram range, have a good tank/EHP, or have utility slots to even the odds/escape or else face annihilation when the blob comes. The Talos has none of these things. That's kind of my point. It's going to be a poor choice solo compared to tornado, it's going to be terrible in fleets for reasons I surely don't need to explain, and the small slice of engagements it can be useful in where there's only a handful of ships on either side it's going to have the problem of being relatively slow, paper thin, and stuck in the middle of any furball trying to do its job. Hi2primary

Does that make more sense now?

This concept was dead on arrival.

Fit arties on it and use it as nanoed sniper.. Theres a high chance that the minmatar will do better in that role though.. In that case I guess it would make an ok miner.

Fixed.
