The scram range, I am almost positive, will be coming from Gallente.

The missiles in one form or another probably from Caldari.

And that leaves the role bonus. We know they're supposed to be pretty fast, but I imagine that will be in the form of ship stats, rather than a specific bonus.

So that one is pretty well up in the air.

I concur. I hope they have the lowest signature resolution since they won't be the fastest. As for the role bonus, I'm hoping it will be something like +100% missile velocity with a -50% flight time reduction.

I've heard (rumour?) that the class will be shield-based and the battleship has 8 mids and 5 lows.

Between the Scram bonus and Velocity bonus I think seeing Missile Precision or Target Prediction on the Caldari skills would give Mordu ships a unique feel. Excellent against small/fast targets but slightly less effective against larger targets.

*Edit* Screw that. Sorry, my tired brain read Scrambler = Web. Those things aren't the same at all, bad brain.

Itching for this information as well. First time I've wanted to go "pure" missile boat. Those designs are just too sick. Golem will likely be more dps but when you just do PVE mostly it really doesn't matter. I'm curious what the other 12 new ship skins will be for as well.

Pirate ships are specialist, so it should have more dps than the Golem or Navy Raven.


I figured Marauders were still technically specialists as well being T2 and having Bastion Mode. Maybe not as much so, but I assumed it'd do more damage. I'll be pleasantly surprised and hopefully if it does. I don't know how much use I'll get out of the warp scrambler aspects of the Mordu's as I've never needed it in PVE.


I'm already planning on doing dastardly things with the new frigate and cruiser. I wonder what will have the greater range? My missiles or my overheated faction warp scrambler. Pirate

Also, they said they based the designs off of Lockheed Martin's Skunkworks aircraft, so I also think such bonuses would be cool as that's what those aircraft specialize in.Blink


Even though it was already stated by Fozzie that these ships would have missile bonuses from the Caldari side and Scram bonuses from the Gallente, it would be very fitting considering the design of these ships to give them the lowest in class signature radii and possibly bonuses for cloaking. Give them high sensor strength and/or bonuses for the equipment that makes them hard to be scanned down and we have the makings of a really neat set of ninja ships.

The battleship design just screams for it to be a pirate BLOPs.

Possibly a slight lore change for Mordu's Legion to fit with the stealthiness of their ships.

Here's what I'm hoping it will have for bonuses:

Gallente: 20% bonus to warp disruption range per level
Caldari: 10% missile damage bonus per level
Role: 100% missile velocity bonus (-50% flight time bonus)
Can fit Covert Ops Cloak « (haha, just joking…)

Highest agility, lowest signature radius, second fastest speed.

the damage bonus may vary between the ships like the serp and angel line does. but i do anticipate significantly more damage than a Golem on the BS.

then 10% missile velocity (or maybe a 5%-10% missile explosion velocity bonus) and 10% - 15% warp disruption range per level.

I would love to see this thing as an armor tank with 8 lows, but it's almost certainly going to be shield-based. It would be a riot with 200mbit bandwidth (4x Geckos) and a 100% velocity bonus to drones as well. Now we just need a Mordu's Legion stealth drone with low signature...

I love getting new ships but I must say I'm not happy about the new frigate. They're going to be everywhere and they're all going to be kiting you at 30-40km. It's gonna suck.

Other than that... yay, new ships! \o/

Shield tanked missiles ships are everywhere.

I want 7 highs 7 launchers
5 mids
8 lows

Gal
20% warp disruption range per level
Cald
7.5% missile ROF per level
ROLE
400% missile velocity bonus
- 80% flight time penalty

This would allow it to be amazing at hit-n run tactics and 5mids for extra scrams/webs. Its not like missiles have anything to put in the lows besides BCS... so 2-4 of those and a 6-4 slot tank seems plenty.

That awkward moment at the Gentlemen's Club when you see your sister on the stage....and you're not sure where to put the money....

200mb drone bay? lol

i think they'll be smaller then the average ships. maybe 25-50 on the BS and nothing on the cruiser and frig.

Close, no covops and they are active hull tanked
Hence the large number of mids and new rigs

Something tells me the scram range would actually be the role bonus, but I see where you're coming from.

Since they mentioned kiting, I'm curious whether the bonuses will be to range or damage, or to range with damage as a role bonus like some of the other "Pirate" vessels.

Looks at Vindicator* Hmm damage application bonus and damage bonus.
Looks at new "kiting" missile ships* probably range...wait raven? I surely hope its not going to be a raven with a better tank?
I'll be sad. The problem with raven's is applied torp dps. They wouldn't be so laughable if they applied their damn dps like a gunboat. Yeah we know it's not instant damage and it will ever be but that's the tradeoff of nearly never missing a "shot" and I accept that. If the new ships are just a t1 kessie/caracal/raven with better pt range they wont really be that much better imo.

TL;DR Please give the Mordu ships a damage application bonus, this is how to make them in line with other pirate ships.

more info at http://themittani.com/news/fanfest-eve-keynote

with screenshot


Very little information about these new ships was revealed other than:

Fast and versatile skirmishers
Missile specialists
Slightly slower than Angels
Extended-range Warp Disruption


so, in theory it would be faster than Caldari BS when blitz L4?
