Retriever warp distance nerf in the patch?

Prior to the patch I could warp about 80au with a full capacitor in my retriever (warp drive operation 5)

Now I can only warp about 30au from full capacitor. What happened, was this intended?

I've noticed this wierd behavior aswell just as the patch landed. Before I could warp around 70AU without thinking too much about my capacitor. But since the patch I need to use 2 warps for it too work and let the capacitor reach 92% before rewarping on top of that. I'm actually considering rigging them with 2 warp rigs to solve the problem, but it would be nice to know if the change is going to stick around.

I hope they will fix mackinkaw too then. It can only warp 25au.

Hey guys. We had cleaned up the warp capacitor need numbers for the barges and exhumers as part of their changes behind the scenes, but after your feedback I took another close look and the warp use is a bit high for a ship with a cap pool as small as the Retriver. I'll bump the cap use down, and the change should hit TQ in the next day or so.

Thanks for the feedback.
