Why is it even there? you can't fit it after the siege mod and 3 launchers, unlike a naglfar. It also brings up production cost unnecessarily.

I don't see the revelation or moros with a launcher slot so get rid of this stupid "feature"

Or better yet...give the Phoenix the option of using 3 turrets or 3 launchers so the Phoenix can actually be useful.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

With the most recent expansion of Crucible, all dreads have had their capital drone bay removed from production requirements. This now officially makes the phoenix the most expensive dread to produce while doing the lowest dps if it is not firing its native damage type of kinetic.

This needs to be addressed NOW with either the removal of the turret hardpoint or increase citadel torpedo rate of fire.

It also has guaranteed hits with missiles instead of having to deal with things such as "tracking," "fall-off," and "optimal range," and can change damage types to do better damage based upon the structure/shiptype present rather than having to pack multitudes of space-hogging flavors of ammo.

My counter-proposal is to increase the turret slots and remove the missile slots, and remove capital size missiles from the game. Problem solved. Now I can have a shield-tanking Moros.

or we could just add a launcher hardpoint to both the moros and the revelation and an additional launcher hardpoint to the nag. problem solved the CCP way!
