waiting till tomorrow to read this, cause today is "Dont believe no one day"

That's exactly what we'd expect you to say.

[Tinfoil Hattery Intensifies]

NOS are still too difficult too fit on most ships that would actually benefit from using them.....

Interceptors and other frigates will be able to permantly run tackle this way.

Seriously? More buffs to interceptors?

You're totaly dismissing the fact you have to use cap to run a neut

Target A & B both have 100 cap
Target A neuts B for 45 cap it costs him 33,75 (all 5) to do so
A has 66,25 Cap left
B has 55 cap left
Target B Nos A for +8 cap it cost him -8
A has 58,25 cap left
B has 63 cap left

Unless you have a ship bonused for neuting, a single NOS will be a perfecly good defense against one neut.
Now MAYBE your enemy has fitted for neuting and will be able to inject cap somehow and then it's not any more a single neut, but a ship dedicating several of his slots to apply ewar.

Edit : i used a T1 small energy neut & T1 small nos for these numbers

You mean make them worth considering ever?

Nice

there too difficult to fit ... at least half there fitting requirements .. probably needs a 3rd off really..

I am very concerned that this changed might make it too easy for frigates to hold tackle on bigger ships possibly making it impossible to neut a frigate to loose its tackle
I am all for frigates being used more maybe one day in large scale combat but I don't think this will do any good atleast for small NOS

on med and large it will probably not cause much of a change, ships that already fit NOS will get more cap from it, others will not care
the new blood ships have other much more weighty issues then NOS power

Exactly. Not to mention the new cycle times will buff AB's or better yet, dual propulsion frigates too.

Small Diminishing power system draws 9.6 capacitor per cycle per 2.5s.
Now let's say a frigate with maxed skills fits the following mods:

1mn AB II - Consumes 5.5 capacitor per 7.5 seconds
Fleeting Propulsion Inhibitor I - Consumes 3 capacitor per 5 seconds
Faint Epsilon Warp Scrambler I - Consumes 3 capacitor per 5 seconds

11.5 capacitor consumed if you want to run everything permanently.
One small nosferatu would not be enough to run all those 3 modules, but it would allow to run 2 of them at the same time.
A buff like this would mean an even bigger threat for larger ships.

This would mean almost any frigate pilot with a decent fit is able to tackle and hold a larger ship down VERY easy. Yes, they are ment to tackle larger ships but with these changes it almost get's to the point there's no 'skill' involved for tackling. Sure frigates have to deal with light drones and the like. But usually fleets arrive before their tackler get's killed anyways.

Just my 2 cents! Apologies for my English.
