Finally we get to the battleships!

This class is by far the most healthy of the three and so we aren't making as many big changes as we did with the frigates and cruisers. We are extending all of the new faction theme elements up to the battleships, which should range from having minimal impact to being a pretty significant buff.

Here's the details (if you see something that seems really weird, it may be a mistake/typo so just let me know and I'll check it out):

NIGHTMARE

Amarr Battleship Bonus:
7.5% bonus to Large Energy Turret tracking speed

Caldari Battleship Bonus:
30% bonus to Afterburner velocity bonus (was 5% energy turret damage)

Role Bonus:
150% bonus to Large Energy Turret damage (was 100% energy turret damage)
NOTE: it's been requested that I point here that this is the same total damage bonus as the ship had prior to the change. (1.25 (25% bonus) * 2.00 (100% bonus) = 2.50 (150% bonus))

Front page baby!

OH MY GOD YOU DIDN'T NERF THE MACH!!!1 Big smile

Edit: what may your logic behind giving the nightmare 30% bonus to AB speed rather than 20% like the rest of the line be?

Edit again: after reading through them thoroughly, I am happy to say that I am very pleased with these changes. I do, however, believe the Mach would benefit immensely by having its turret count reduced to 6, then being given a 37.5% ROF bonus, and moving a high to a mid. This would give the guns slightly longer life when heating, have minimal impact on ammo consumption, make the beautiful ship look symmetrical, and allow for a beefier shield tank, or extra EWAR such as webs, or a sebo/tracking comp in an arty fit.

why do some have 19 slots and the mach/vindi has 20?

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

Great! Finally got them. Time to assimilate.

Edit - surprisingly happy with these changes. Going to plug in those numbers and see if the 30% bonus actually makes it worth using an AB now with the Nightmare. Glad that you followed my suggestion on that from the cruiser thread. Now I am thinking AB and then double neutralisers in those two highs.

I believe because when the models were updated there wasn't room for the number of effective turrets needed so they were given less slots with larger role bonuses. The Rattlesnake has less because of drones. We talked about adjusting for them all to have the same number but we like where the balance is for them and didn't feel it was worth messing with just for the sake of making the slot count match.

Mach still has more speed than bc's do why? also why so many lows slots?

Angels are still bland omni tanked .. hardly worth buying over minnie ships ... you;'re basically ignoring feedback here

sentries on Rattle really???? .... doesn't it defeat the point of the whole line moving away from gallente sentry overlaps????
Nightmare still only has 4 turrets seems very generous too me... 150% AB bonus seems a bit high

perhaps serpentis ships should lose some dronebay ... also vindi has tracking not falloff bonus consistency here is awful...

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

Can you confirm a warp speed of 3.0 AU/s? Also, 7 turrets just looks godawful. Could we please look at dropping this to 6 turrets, swapping a high for a mid slot and changing the role bonus to a 37.5% rate of fire instead? It works out to a +0.28% DPS increase, but this is somewhat negated by a higher ammunition consumption rate. Let's not forget that the Machariel is losing align time, scan resolution and signature bloom.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

He said they were all getting 50% increase to warp speed, and accelerations to match. I.E. Mach warps 3.0 au/sec
