Ships & Modules

So I take it Caldari/Minmatar is a missing combo for pirate ship skills.

and

Mordus don't have any spaceships.

Would be fun to add new plexes that could spawn anywhere in k-space, rather than having them tied to regions, so that (a) everyone will eventually find one, and (b) they'll be hard to specialise in farming. If they want they can reduce frequency of drone plex spawn to make space for them.

mostly because Mordus doesn't really hold enough space.

They could even make the encounters revolve around jump drives (ie a black ops oriented escalation that pops the cynos for you).

Actually, with no skills HAMs have an explosion radius of 125m, so there aren't many cruisers they'll hit for full damage in that case. Even with perfect skills they still have an explosion radius of 93.75m, which is large enough that quite a few cruisers won't get hit for full damage.

As for rockets, with perfect skills they have an explosion velocity of 225, which is slower than all frigs, and many frigs do indeed need to be double webbed to get that low...and that's without a propmod.

GMP exists for a reason. Train it.

All combat cruisers have sigs above 93.75 m. Out of all 58 cruisers, only the logis have a smaller sig - and a couple of them have larger sigs once you've actually fit some mods to them.

Rockets have an explosion radius of 15 m. This is half the sig of any frigate. I would say that I trust that I don't have to explain to you what effect this has on the effective explosion velocity, but it appears that I do. In the case of a frigate with sig 30 m, the effective explosion velocity is doubled to 450 m.

Hagika's statement is invalid except in the extremes, which cannot be construed as being representative of typical performance.

So you buffed a broken weapon system that was so long over due, that it was ridiculous, left the other weapon system to continue to suck and the community has overwhelming stated over and over they needed worked on. Then you reduce the tank, add a tiny bit of speed and basically turned a pve boat to a better pve boat with less over all dps by a bit.
All the while making the minmatar counter part a better and higher dps pvp and great pve boat complete with a drone bandwith to fly large drones and have monster damage output. You effectively made the main missile race navy ship a weaker one. The justification was that of being worried people are going to snipe with cruise missiles lol.

Who are you try to fool? Everyone knows no one is going to snipe in a missile boat and they dont because of the ridiculous travel time. In pvp, there will almost always be webs so damage is king which is why the Phoon comes out better.

All the while you all came up with rapid launchers and not only a nerf but a pure disaster to the missile line, and you all left the phoenix and capital missiles to continue be garbage years and years on going as the worst dread.
Its a good think player owned stations cant move, they would be speed tanking the phoenix too.


So as you quote how cruise missiles were made better, which was long due, you pat yourself on the back for fixing what was broken for years and managed to leave other things broken,nerfed or now broken. Umm congrats?

We can go on about this and stray from the original topic, and i can easily point out how the eve community have little faith in Rise and Fozzie for how they conduct their work in eve. There are pages upon pages everywhere how people disapprove on how they do their nerfs and buffs, oh and lets not forget how they ask for feed back and then go completely opposite from the more knowledgeable player base.

You can keep patting yourself on the back for them fixing a broken weapon system and claim how you did so much.
Its like obama claiming how his heath care bill helped 6 million people so far to get coverage while the bill itself has booted 30 million from their better coverage.

Its amazing how the regular people get it, and the government doesnt. Same thing applies here.

It was made a better pve boat as stated, and because cruise were fixed, it helped. In terms of PVP, its still never used.
Which was the whole problem to begin with.

Isn't the Worm like the worst pirate faction frigate by far? I don't think I've ever seen one in space.

We are still missing a Caldari/Minmatar pirate faction. The addition of one is the perfect opportunity for a line of missile focused combat ships.

Exactly what I was hoping for. High damage, either a web or TP bonus. Dont mind only having enough bandwith for a flight of smalls as long as the DPS is worth it.

Something that is pretty equivalent to the Vindi. Basically a Missile boat alternative.

A possible pairing would be caldaris' excellent missile focus with minmatars' specialization in target painting. Drones would definitely be completely secondary to a ship like that.

Breacher-Bellicose-phoon hulls?

See alot of people calling for Mordu ships in these threads, aren't Mordu ships just Caldari ships? I haven't seen a Mordu in anything unique. And it would be a real bummer with just another "pirate" faction ship that's just basically a paint job.
