Currently the Drake has six launcher slots but no turret slots.

I propose to give the Drake some additional powergrid and six turret slots.

The bonuses on Drake could be changed to:

Caldari Battlecruiser skill bonus:

20% Medium Laser tracking and damage per level

10% reduction on capacitor usage for medium laser turrets

Note:

Can fit warware link module

I agree. You should spam the CSM until they take up this fabulous cause.

Thank you Big smile

I know change is hard sometimes but not all changes are bad. So my thought was that battlecruisers are lacking and battleships as much as I like them are not really in a good spot right now.

Honestly? I kinda figured you were either smashed, or very tired and the picard ascii is ubiquitous (and usually light hearted)....

Would there be a bonus for using a different crystal in each laser?

Nope, only the ship bonusses would apply.

So with scorch heavy pulses would get 48km optimal and with conflagration 26km optimal with no tracking enhancers fitted.

Well that's debatable.

Meh, I'm not necessarily sure it wouldn't be an improvement… Lol

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

The facepalm is referencing exactly what you've posted above. Caldari are missiles and hybrids. Lasers is out of role.

It would be a big one actually. Epic passive tank, mmjd, scorch? Ouch time. Hell she'd actually be able to hit other cruisers for full damage Lol

But caldari ain't lasers hence my original post.

lol at this blatant troll ...

also harbingers already suck so why add another....

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

Sad Oh man..

Arthur did at least knew what I was doing..

Harvey, it should be obvious by now that I am revers-engineering a discussion about the state of missiles in general.

As I hinted earlier, heavy missiles do no longer have a place on a Drake or any other heavy missile boat and on the course we are currently heading no missile will be a viable pvp weapon.

Why else would I want turret slot on a missile boat?

Thing is, the people in EVE do not like to read unless it is very short but they do like to write a lot of poo and hear themselves talking without saying anything.

Sounds familiar right?? RIGHT????
