1km optimal is a bit under the guns for such large weapon platforms. I know on my vindi, even if i double web something with 90% webs, and i have a hull bonus for tracking, i still have a hard time hitting small things that are only 1km away.

This doesn't make me want to take a battleship out to play any more than faction webs do, and I'm very disappointed that you think otherwise.

fed navy web without bonuses is 60% at 14km / 18km.

the meta 17 one listed here has 45% at 15.5 km...

they need an extra 5km optimal before falloff


So your idea for good game design is to turn every Battleship and Cap/Super into a Vindicator.

Glad you didn't quit your day job.

1 km is kinda short since most BS guns have bigge optimal and low tracking.


So it will be super hard to get the benefit due to low tracking.

It should be 9 km optimal 16 falloff on t2. so battleships can acctualy use the benefit of the new WEB ......


EDIT.

Forgot OH gives 300%

So optimal 5km is sufficient

Maybe its not meant to make your Vinid a frigate killer?

CCP Fozzie, you don't explicitly say, but this is a targeted module right, not an AOE (although that would be cool)?

Change is good. I've been a strong advocate for some sort of effectiveness changes to webs for a long time. I think this is a good first step.

So when do we see falloff on all the rest?

Fozzie, can you do us all a favor here at eve and just leave the pvp and game design/balancing to someone who actually plays the damn game... I mean what the hell are you even thinking? 1km optimal web? are the devs and ccp stoned? What the hell are large turrets going to do to a frigate or dessie at 1km? even if you decide to move your aiding them.. Fall off on a webs is dumb and you should feel dumb..

Seems a little underwhelming to me if it's intention was to make small scale/solo battleship PvP more viable.

The biggest problem (at least when I've done solo BS PvP) is that it's so easy to completely dismantle a BS with EWAR. Like frankly I don't care if a frigate gets under my guns, since a frigate isn't going to kill me. Most battleships can neut out and scram+web any cruiser that tries to get in range. What ends up killing you is 20+ EC-300s, damps, TDs, and getting dogpiled because you're slow as ****. While this module is neat, it doesn't really solve that problem.

You should feel dumb for thinking that BS should be able to solo frigates.

So overheated t2 version at 10km have (assuming linear change in power) around 60% web power.

So basically You want to stay at >10km and its weaker web and only when he is overheating. After few cycles he will have to turn off overheating and web power falls to little over 40%

I like the concept but please consider not converting officer webs into these. The main reason people use officer webs at present is for the range increase, which this would severely shorten.

You should feel dumb for thinking that BS should be able to solo frigates.



And you should feel dumb for supporting this mod, the **** are you going to web at 1km and think you can kill it? Are you so blind by your drunken mind, that you can't see this is a huge friggin waste of time? I mean you alliance flys supers/caps no? when the **** are you dropping them at 1km from anything?

whats the reasoning behind converting officer webs ?

how does this stack with other webs?

what are the skill requirements ?

Is there a way you can just add officer versions of these to the drop tables and preserve the existing officer webs? The current officer webs have uses outside of BS and capitals.

Edit: Also, there are still uses for regular officer webs with BS and capitals. The Vindicator and Bhaalgorn would be sad to not have a regular officer web as an option.
