Dawn,

Do not chase the flavor of the month. Yes, you should do your research or you will put time/skill into something considered laughable (Caldari Dreadnaught anyone?) but do not go chasing after the flavor of the month (FOTM) or you will suffer in the inevitable nerf.

This applies to all MMORPG, not just Eve.

Hello

I have some questions from the more experienced players here

I started playing a number of months ago and trained for a Tengu to run missions to raise some isk for PvP. Then heavy missiles were nerfed.

I decided to start a second character and ive trained for 50 days to get a Dommi level V and now Sentries have been nerfed.


Questions

1. Does this stuff annoy regular players or does it happen all of the time?

2. These training times are huge and they are made redundant at a moments notice

3. Is there a place that i can go where CCP will tell us what ships wont be nerfed so that im not worried about it being nerfed.

4. How can anyone train for a cap ship that takes years of training when it can be nerfed on a whim

5. Lastly, Are there any ships i can train for that are going to remain stable for the time being





My best advice is to stop aiming for whichever is considered overpowered at the moment. You'll keep risking nerfs if you only go for FOTM/FOTY.

450 dps is laughable for running missions.. Laughable.


Dunno what's he's smoking but a tengu with 5% hardwires and lvl 5's does 749dps with scourge fury at 70km range.


Both proabably tank 1k dps crapstable. Atleast that would be an explanation.
