Hi M8s,

We're making huge changes to capitals with the Citadels expansion. Most of these changes are on Sisi now and we'd love you to get on there and help us with testing!

Notes:
  • All combat capitals have reduced base Shields/Armor/Hull. There are now capital armor plates and capital shield extenders that you should use to increase the buffer of your capital ship.
  • We've introduced new High Angle Weaponry, these are the 'Quad Mega Pulse Laser', 'Quad 800mm Repeating Cannon', 'Triple Neutron Blaster Cannon' and 'Rapid Torpedo Launcher'.
  • Building requirements for all Dreads has changed. See here.


The siege module has been changed and now includes the following resistances/bonuses
  • 75-80% bonus to Sensor Dampener resistance (T1/T2)
  • 75-80% bonus to Weapon Disruption resistance (T1/T2)
  • 400-500% bonus to Sensor Strength (T1/T2)
  • 80% increase to Remote Electronic Assistance impedance
  • 100% increase to Remote Repair impedance
  • Siege no longer gives a Scan Resolution penalty
  • Siege no longer breaks locks on activation


All of these changes are on Sisi, and we'd appreciate you jumping on and helping to test them!

With all the new modules and the utility highs their fitting space feels a bit cramped I suggest giving all of them about one capital modules worth of cpu/pg.

Thats great having useless cap bonus on rev!

Why you can't put there something tangible? Like damage bonus (same as other dreads) or tracking bonus (to help poor lazer tracking)?

The EHP reduction basically necessitates plates and LSE's, but that isn't even really the issue. As it stands now, with dreads being immobile, two titans with pikes could obliterate an entire dread fleet with ease. The DD changes have made this ship class completely obsolete in a combat role. Not to even mention the fact that SC's with shadows are going to be one shotting dreads as well.

Rev and Phoenix still getting a third bonus based on bad balanse on weaponsystem/ hull, whilst the 2 others gets an accual bonus. Personally i think its a messed up balanse patch where such things should have been cleared up and put in line.

Edit: i see nag is Even getting a 4'th under role bonus.

That is to compensate for the others all having 3 launchers/hardpoints while the nag only has 2.

100% increase to Remote Repair impedance

Just curious because of the wording here; are dreads capable or not capable of receiving remote capacitor assistance in siege now?

Edit: to clarify I mean after patch.

They never were, that was the "balance" factor on siege mode, the other being you couldn't move or jump.

Combined with the new changes to refitting with a weapons timer, and a nerf to EHP, it basically means a lot more dreads will be dying.

+1

It doesn't feel like they accounted enough for the added fitting requirements of not only the new capital mods but the introduction of T2 mods.

I know they aren't right now. I'm asking because the vague wording does not imply capacitor assistance. So after this patch can you have cap chaining dreads? CCPls clarify. I will nitpick this because it is a very important distinction.

Well GG Amarr/Caldari your dreads have just been nerfed into uselessness.
Why would anyone bother with them anymore when the Gallente Moros is vastly superior? The 3rd racial bonus for Rev/Phoenix is totally useless.

Ugh

I wasn't aware that the rev was useful to begin with.

Apparently the reason for the Phoenix's reload bonus is because otherwise it'd be viable running normal torpedo launchers. I'm still mad about the Rev's bonus, considering every other dread technically gets a damage and rate bonus.

when (rough date is ok) does CCP plan to mirror to Singularity?

According to CCP Falcon's post:
"When were the last mirrors taken from TQ:
Singularity: March 9th, 2016"

My wormhole corp is interested in testing out these capital, citadel, and high class combat site changes, so we like to prepare ourselves for the next mirror over.

Oh wow, I'm sorry to be so blunt but, this is absolutely stupid to have the Phoenix and the Rev get a bonus that's only there due to poor stat attribution on the weapons themselves.

It's like if IRL I increased the price of my goods right before having them on sale, this stuff isn't only frowned upon, it's plain old illegal... Well that's the same twisted logic you're doing here, and frankly, that's something I'd have expected from 2006 EVE, not 2016 EVE.

Not to mention, guess what, that they also get the useless resistance bonus... On a ship that doesn't have the ability to receive remote assistance 90% of the time!
