Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

I don't like the changes related to T3. Why not balancing T3 between each other. For example, Tangu with HAM can choose better damage against anything while Legion can only do em/th with energy weapon and less damage. Legion can only fight affectively against Sansha rats with main pulse laser but when it get tracking disruption your weapon range will become like 1000km and can't do a **** against the rats. However, Tangu HAM has no problem with tracking disruption because missiles is ******* op. Please make each T3 good and useful against certain faction rats so that it stop everyone to choose Tangu.

I am a Thera FC who use T3's almost every day, both in way of Hunting / ganking, aswell as fleet combat be it small scale, aswell as alternate tactics as petes.

Also have lots of experience in solo T3 usage, have well rounded knowledge of all the different ships & combinations of subs.

Hi Devs,

In the 9 years I've been playing Eve Online I have participated in just about all aspects of game play. My primary activity with Strategic Cruisers has been focused on PVE content from High Sec. to Wormhole space.

My goal for participating in this focus group would be to look at making all of the T3 Subsystems viable choices for configuring a ship for different roles. I would like to concentrate this on not just making the Strategic cruisers better role variants of of existing ships but possibly discover new roles for these ships which do not currently exist in game.

As mentioned many times before one of the limitations of a T3 Hull is the Rig lock-in. I believe this could be address by the creation of a Rig subsystems which could be swapped in and out like the other subsystems. I think it would be beneficial to explore the option of creating these subsystems and balancing them into the current ship hull and other subsystems.

I feel that Strategic Cruisers can play an important part in Eve without having the limited number of fits they currently suffer from and would enjoy participating in the process.

Thank you for considering my application for the Strategic Cruiser Focus Group.

Best Regards,
Wynstone

Hi, my name is Lucy Callagan.

I am a small gang focused pilot operating mainly in Null-Sec and Low-Sec space.
I have been flying T3 cruisers for a few years now, on several accounts and in many different ways: old school links, hunter, small gang anti tackle, small gang DPS platform, small gang e-war platform and more recently: on grid links. This allowed me, I think, to gain a significant amount of experience in this domain.

From my point of view, in the current small gang environment, T3 cruisers lack engage-ability. A question which, I think, would be interesting to debate.

This is why I want to take part in the incoming focus group. I indeed think that my perspective and experience would be valuable to this group.

As an IRL engineer, I am also very used to working and thoughtfully tackling problems in a team. I also always try to assume and understand opposite points of view instead of standing up against it straight away.

I also have many contacts among the French community, which, I think, enables me to represent a significant part of baguette (and poutine) eating capsuleers.

Thank you for your time.

I vote for Eli to help with this.

Hello!

I'd like to be considered for inclusion in this focus group.

My experience with T3Cs is somewhat limited compared to many of the other applicants, but I am heavily invested in T3C hunting for Black Ops fleets. I also rat in a T3C and theorycraft a lot of different applications for T3Cs both in Kspace and Wormhole space for both ratting and PvP. My focus is the Tengu, but I am familiar with the other T3Cs as well.

Thank you for your consideration. Fly safe.

Hello, Fozzie! I've waited years for this thread. :D

I'd like take part in this focus group to help represent the factional warfare side of this game. I have extensive experience using strat cruisers for solo work in every area of the game, fighting with and against them in lowsec, have been a rabid theory crafter for years, and would like to entertain and encourage out of the box ideas for refining and/or re-imagining how strategic cruisers work in relation to their impact on such a wide variety of roles in this game. I have a free schedule, and am willing to put in however many hours that would be possible or allowed to assist in this focus group.

Ex. for out of the box ideas would include discussing the viability of splitting current strat cruisers into 2 ships, changing the method/form subsystems take in relation to the ship, or simply playing devil's advocate in group discussions to highlight strengths and weaknesses of potential changes.

Hi, I'm Rowells, FC in Mercenary Coalition, and I'll be applying for consideration.

I've used and lead T3s in numerous different situations:

- Highsec, Lowsec, Nullsec fleets
- Shield/Armor doctrines
- Used in large and small fleets, blops, utility/prober/hunter,
- Member of two different alliance doctrine teams (T3s being a common subject)
- PVE uses including anomalies, missions, and incursions

T3s have been my bread and butter for the last few years and I don't think I can remember a time when they weren't in my hangar for one purpose or another. I'm quite certain we can mold these warhorses into to something that is still a reliable jack-of-all-trades while adding and maintaining plenty of uniqueness for them.

I'm already fairly active on slack and have personally always enjoy some good mental flossing with problems like balance and fittings.

As a side note: will this and future teams be using reddit for discussion like some of the previous groups? Or has that been nixed?

Hi,

I'd like to throw my name in the proverbial hat as well.

I've been playing EVE with various levels of commitment in the past. I started in 2004 and have stuck around since then. There has been stints in alliances holding space in null-sec, I've been friendly with BoB back in the day, I've been against the Goons, I've been with the Goons. I've lived in W-space, I've been a miner, I've managed POS's, I've done moon mining on my own. I've flow in massive fleets. But at the moment I'm living in highsec taking it easy for the moment.

When I lived in a C3 Wormhole with my small corp we almost exclusively used T3's, they've seen usage in my service for exploration and various PVE experiences (incursions, missions etc). At the moment, I answer to the more casual side of the EVE community. My main activities currently consist of exploration (those yummy sleeper caches are too good to pass up on) and combat site PVE. So far the one thing I haven't done with T3 cruisers is PVP.

It seems to me that the majority of the respondents are from the heavy hitting core EVE community (Null-sec FC's, Wormhole corp CEO's and the like). But it seems to me that the more casual side of the EVE community is very often under represented, which is why I think there needs to be some counter balance. I'd happily carry the torch, but if there is someone better suited I'll let them step up - there just need to be someone representing them/us.

Anyhow, fly unsafe and never give up! o7

I would like to be part of this.
I've been playing eve off an on for a long time and would like to help contribute.
I don't have a ton of experience with T3 cruisers. but I've been killed by them a few times. that counts as something. =)
I feel I can bring a different perspective, more out of the box type of thinking, and hope to help bring them online with what people truly desire as a variable roll ship.
