I'm no genius but kiting BS's are really a "thing". I know theres some spped mach, navy mega etc. fits out there but in general in a BS you are brawling or sniping straight up. Assuming the Barghest is gonna be around a bil, in what way is it better than a Golem or CNR? Links plus RF Disruptor does the job. I'm kinda disappointed. I was expecting some akin to the Vindi webs like a explo rad bonus so torps can do full damage to a battleship. CCP hates missiles it seems :/ Does any1 disagree?

EDIT: Arent* really a thing



You can keep your target on grid longer if it tries to get away while you are solo but I really don't know how big of a niche this actually is. Any fleet would have something else to point than a BS imo.

Say hello to the newest pirate faction in New Eden, Mordu's Legion.

This thread will be focused on the ships themselves, details about how to get them should be coming shortly but we're still making some tweaks to that.

Mordu's ships are focused on three main themes: speed, missiles, and warp scram/disruptor range. The primary goal is to have a very capable set of kiting ships that are especially attractive to PVPers. They will get bonuses from Caldari and Gallente spaceship command skills. We initially wanted to fill the Caldari/Minmatar faction gap, but the existing factions didn't really support that and adding story and assets for an entirely new faction wasn't practical. Mordu's Legion suits our goals extremely well in every other way so we are very happy with them (and their scary stealth pizza pan art).

Look forward to hearing what you guys think, we are pretty excited.

I really like the missile velocity bonus vs. flight time penalty. The numbers may not be entirely elegant, but I think it will work very well in practice. I can see the frigate in particular being pretty nasty against interceptors that like to burn away from incoming missiles.

On the other hand, if the damage bonus for the Barghest isn't a typo, it should be.

Adjusted OP to reflect that missile damage bonuses are all per level.

Fozzie putting together a blurb on where the BPCs will come from and I'll update OP with that soon. Short version is that they will be available for Mordu's Legion LP as well as off new NPCs in low sec.

would have combined well with missiles being added to TE's .. any chance of that happening Rise?
that and the cruiser and the Battleship have the same range torps vs HAMS.. bizzare anyone?

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

Are you planning on adding more Mordu LP stores that presently exist?

These ships + best speed mods, disruptors and **** + offgrid boosts... i have a bad feeling about them outclassing everything in terms of combat efficiency. Anything that cant outrun them will die.. cos sling shoting a ship that will have something like 40+ disruption range is impossible with a 10km scram. And if you are fast enough to get in scram range, tanky enough to not give a ####, or has range enough to hit them from distance, they will just warp off.

I'm Disappointed in the slot layout on the BS 6 Mids when it's designed to have a point means your going to be trying to fit a 4 slot tank (after prop mod & point ) CCP please drop the ultility High a give it another Mid

How is it Caldari/Minmatar. Gallente get point range. Minmatar web range.

I have great concerns about the bhaghests tanking capability with only 6 mid slots and no shiled bonus of any kind.
1 slot has to go to disruptor/scram
1 to prop mod
leaving 4 slots, 2 extenders, 1 em and 1 adaptive... I think for the price (500ish?, wild guess) the ship needs greater tanking capabilties when it's bonus's specificly take away mid slots.

I recommend 4 % shield resists per level, or an additional mid slot.
maybe give it t2 resists or close to so that the ship can be truly gloriously fit with dual point like it's ment to without losing all of it's tank.

Seems to me sir that this ship could easily dual tank. All in the line actually.

I think "500-ish" is probably a tad unrealistic. The Barghest will easily fetch $1.5-billion or more...

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

Where X is speed, and Y is flight time:
XY is Range.

With bonuses and penalties:
3X * 0.5Y = 1.5XY


Yes. Except that your DPS arrives three times as fast. That matters too.

Based on my PVE experience, it makes a huge difference in wasted salvos, at least for flying level 4 in a BS, but based on what I've heard, it'll matter even more for PVP.
