Hey guys, I expect this will be the last sticky I place there for Odyssey 1.0. Smaller change, although I couldn't find anywhere better to put it. Smile

We're making some changes to the availability of Navy Cap boosters, adding Navy versions of all the remaining cap booster sizes and slightly adjusting the costs of the 100s and 150s to bring them into line with the rest.

We're adding Navy 25, 50 and 75 boosters available in all the FW LP stores. These should be especially useful for users of small and medium ASBs.

We are also increasing the LP and isk costs of the 100 and 150 sizes, with 100s rising from 100LP and 100000isk to 250LP and 250000isk, and 150s rising from 250LP and 250000isk to 375LP and 375000isk. This change brings them in line with the scaling applied to the costs of the other Navy cap boosters.

All of these changes are on SISI now.

Good lord please don't sticky this one you're crowding up our think space.

Aside from that, +1 to adding extra boosters. And the cost increase doesn't seem big enough for me to complain about it so, not bad.

Edit: Oh my god you stickied it.

Save the drones!

Can you give us a hint of when you're going to balance out ASB's as well?

Bit off topic, my bad.

This is all well and good. but for the Love of pants. Tweak the AAR so as it uses less dam cap and REPs faster and for more. It is still no good when you compare it to a ASB. Numbers are all well and good. But real world use shows it is a poor performer.

I don't seen a need to sticky threads like this, it's not something people would be in a major disagreement over.

Bought all the stock in Jita and Rens. Big smile (Navy Cap Boosters 100 @12/13k)

Thank you CCP Fozzie for posting just at the right moment. That should keep me PLEXed a bit longer. ;)

Another one indirect buff of shield tank. It was not me who said about ancillary shield booster Blink
When we will see something positive to the armor tank?

We're not touching torpedoes for Odyssey, we never said we were.

In fact Torpedoes are nowhere near the top of our backlog, since they're very strong in their current state.

Huh. Could've sworn you said you were going to work on battleship missiles, which includes both cruise missiles (which you've addressed) and torpedoes. Maybe I misread.

(also terribly sorry about the off-topic here but torpedoes don't seem very strong to me on the Raven- mostly because the Raven is not very strong.)

On topic: perhaps this is about time I start looking into active tanking frigates.

Sorry fozie but you guys did said that. Check Typhoon in the minmatar thread. As posted by CCP Rise:

" It should also be mentioned that we hope to have a look at cruise missiles and torpedos in time for the summer expansion as well."

Did you just unnerf MASBs? If so, why?
I don't even get why this size of cap boosters exists, should just delete anything sub-200 for being 'micro' and pointless, outside of overpowered shield boosters. Even 200s are pretty weird. Cap boosters in general could do with a rethink, they're silly. Either you have basically no cap, or you fit a cap booster and have infinite cap.
