Player Features and Ideas Discussion

... the old topic turned out bad, so i decided to make a new one.


Idea is simple, give Titans bonuses like the comand ships have to make them more relevant, because they will be much less relevant post Phobe.


Supercariers got bufed a lot (drone modules)

Titans stay like they and are getting only less and less relevant, but are they bigest ships in eve ... So if we don't like to see the win button in space at least make them provide good links, make it worth to make them fleet booster and drop them on grid, they can fit links but t3's and comand ships give better links.

And i think Titans should give links as good as comand ships.

not like you can kill them any way ... i don't see a reson to remove offgrid links. you can link from inside of a pos any more.


but back to the topic, **** should get this buff for real, thay have all of stuff allready to become the ultimate FC shipli

just lacking the % link bonus

I endorse keeping your Titan outside the POS so that you can have active links. Means it can be bumped to hell and gone and die horribly.

This is hopefully happening anyway once CCP can work out how to implement it. Off-grid direct influence of on-grid action is a major issue in this game, so here's hoping they fix it.

Given that, and the vulnerability of a Titan outside shields even if it is off grid I support the addition of bonused links to them. These things are supposed to be flagships, in concept at least. Frankly, as someone entirely disinclined to fly Capitals myself, I would actually say they should have a slightly better bonus than Command Ships. A Titan is a serious asset, and I don't just mean "more expensive" (balancing by isk cost is herpaderp) but by their relative vulnerability without a sufficient support fleet, and the greater difficulty of deploying them post-Phoebe.

Making them superior boosters to Command Ships won't kill Command Ships, what's killed Command Ships as boosters is nigh-invulnerable off-grid T3 bullshit. Making them equal or inferior boosters to Command Ships, however, will make the addition basically pointless since if you're in a position to deploy a Titan to an engagement, you can definitely deploy a Command Ship. That obviously assumes the boosting bonus is replacing the innate fleet bonus in the current Titan setup.

You would, however, need to make some other changes to Titans to accommodate the role of booster, for one thing you'd need to double their current damage bonus/lvl and reduce them to three weapons max (just up the damage on Citadel Missiles to account for the 4th lost launcher on the Leviathan, it's not like the Pheonix doesn't need the help). That would allow for fitting three Warfare Links, a full complement of weapons, a JPG and a DD on a Titan, and leaving the option of going "full booster" by sacrificing the weapons rack to fit six bonused Links while retaining JPG and DD/JC functionality.

Please explain to me why titans have to be removed. A titan needs so much resources to build i´ll think the impact on the economy in eve would be hard if they would be removed.

I would rather say Titan needs a role and as one of the biggest ship i would say he can be a better dreadnought or he could be a command ship. He should not be an perfekt ship which is op but also not irrelevant.

Please calculate the DPS on a Doomsday.
Hint, 10 minutes = 600 seconds.

aould be cool to bring trol rationg titans back too, way not make the damage nefr ignore npc's?
