Here's a question: if Caldari ships are so good at passive shield tanking, why do they have all that cargohold space that's so useful for active shield tanking? Why are Minmatar ships getting the shaft?

The post below: that's what I wanna know

Why do people complain about things before looking to see what the actual change was?

While I freely admit I have wanted a T2 Drake for a long time, someone got the Claymore and Nighthawk backwards. Why does Claymore have more mids and less lows than Nighthawk? Fail...



I've been campaigning for them to rectify this since 2007 with no luck. I once had a dev say they'd "look at it during the next command ship rebalance". Four years later, the rebalance finally happened...and no love for the nighthawk in regards to its slot layout.

They tore my heart out with the sleipnir and absolution changes and I promptly sold my nighthawk once they revealed it was a drake. At least they didn't touch the Astarte Straight

The OP is right and further more whilst trying to fit a nighthawk or say a curse which neither work anymore, I found in three days and 10 or more sites it is also impossible to make isk at all to pay for anything else that might work.

-More isk
-Better ships

Oh I have worked out what does work:

- Hacs work best in solo operations and will win vs a commandship
-Commandships are for pvp, not solo work and cannot pve - worse than hac
- Battleships are not to be touched anymore there too slow, nerf your fleet and are horrible to fit up for anything yet alone use.
- Black-ops are Battleships that are weaker, great for showing off to your friend with a portal though
- Dread need larger tracking or smaller sig on there guns also too expensive prone to blow up in reasonable fights/get a hac
- Carriers are great best used for ratting the best of all ships
- Supers are rl isk sumps for characters - main chanracters, holding characters, cannot dock, use 0.4 sec for bombers or fighters (barely get used) and are ugly, small not super and have a distinct lack of not.. not getting tackled, if you think there scrambler immunity is anything to go upon think again.
-Titans are great! if you own some C&P^^ supers above.

Best things are frigates and hacs only thus far in Eve everything else is a placeholder.

OH sisters of eve and other faction stuff is great too, only who pve's sites with battleships anyway. RR setups pfft :p.
