Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

So, that will not change anything then?

Lucy is an ignorant ****, that's all I wanted to say. Both sides have their right to express their opinion.
Respect your opponents and dont through insults without putting an argument in it.

I think 40% of current HIC scram range would be more reasonable;
15km T2 / 15.75km Faction.

But this is much better than the current cancer so thanks.

Do you have any arguments outside of being touched somewhere by a HiC?






Skynet was a complete different thing and it had to be nerfed no question.

HiCs? They are ******* limited in what they can do and when I said "run" I meant you don´t have to commit at all. A HiC has no real power projection over a a grid, let alone system. Fighters were pretty much a "shut the whole system down" thingy. Outside of plexes that means. If you want to commit to a fight with a HiC do it else simply don´t. So please, where is your argument? At least give me a weak one. The "meta needs changing" is no balance argument at all it barely is one for gameplay.
Posts before me mentioned some "hard counters" to HiCs already so there is something.
Running 100mn cruisers because of HiCs sound weird to be honest. Running 100mn cruisers for several reasons sounds legit. They are a pain in the ass to pin down except you have "web superiority" and can apply them in time. Else you can fuc*k*ng run MWDs and commit. After all it´s no different from getting caught in close range cruisers by a nano-gang with ceptor support. Can´t touch the ceptors really, can´t run either. Only thing you can do is die without losing your s*hi*t and that´s fine.

Less HIC cancer is good.

I'd like to see some more interesting gameplay vs just letting it cycle on a target though.

Maybe give the scram script a longer range than what you're proposing, say 40km, with a combined grapple effect, then give it a 10 second activation and slap a 30 - 40 second reactivation on it.

That way it's powerful for snatching targets, and allowing other ships to get on top of them to land hard tackle, but really lacking when it comes to holding a ship down entirely by itself.

Non-scripted HIC beams would continue to have infi-points.

Please, you don't need 39.4km scram to shut down a CD lets be real.
Most people who aren't bad at the game are going to have CDs at pings and fleet warp them onto targets, or use solo expanded probe fit if you want to boosh properly, or warp down to wrecks etc. As well as doing spearfishing from 100km+ with multiple CDs, HICs don't help protect against that at all.

u talk about oppressive meta and yet the orthrus isnt mentioned

hmmMMM

thinking emoji

also you essentially just buffed the orthrus btw

and it didnt need a buff

There are some fantastically stupid posts here. Do you realize a Lachesis/Arazu or a Huginn/Rapier will do the exact same thing as a hic when countering kiters? Long webs do the job even better. Try actually doing something other than ratting in Esoteria and pressing F1 every now and then before crying that others won't stoop to your level of play by simply dying to a blob of clueless pubbies.
