Which csm was responsible for the super cap nerf

I’m pretty sure all of them asked for this.

Which csm was responsible for the learning skills reset

Trebor Daehdoow is the one that is taking the most credit for this, if I’m not mistaken.

which csm wants to make electronic frigates point supercaps

I LOVE this idea!! The supercap lobby is strong though, it won’t be an easy thing to push for but I’ll go out on a limb for it. EAF’s need love, and supercaps need to die. Seems like a win-win to me! I’m a lowsec resident, so I’m all for low sec ships being useful against supers, which obliterate the balance of power in low sec areas and discourage normal regional pew in a big way.

I think rather than let EAF’s just scram stuff though, perhaps allowing them to fit a focused point module, like a heavy interdictor? It may or may not be the same as the dictors, but I could see it being an option (like cynos for recon ships) standard on all EAF’s. Could be capital-specific, maybe. I’d have to weigh all the pros and cons but I love ideas like this that let the little guys take down behemoths Lilliputian-style

which csm thinks these bc and destroyers skills changes is a good idea

The requirement MUST be that anything you can fly today, you can fly after the change. Full reimbursement must be made so no one retrains anything. That being said, Its hardly “streamlining” anything to multiple skills by a racial variant.

My biggest beef with the current overhaul is that while it’s a step in the right direction, I’d much rather focus their resources on the actual ship balance itself. It doesn’t matter whether a bellicose has a tier number or not, or what it takes to fly it, if the bellicose still sucks. I’d prefer CCP work on fixing useless ships FIRST, instead of renaming them all and swapping around skills only to have them still be right back where they started in having the same number of ships still be useless.

I’m also hesitant about giving too defined a role to ships – I want flexibility to be maintained in fit and usage, especially in the tech 1 and pirate ships. Ultimately, PLAYERS should decide how exactly to use ships, and not be on rails with what CCP decides you need to use a ship for. That’s my mentality when approaching ship balance discussions, with some exceptions of course for the dedicated tech 2 variants. There’s a lot of experimentation in low sec pew, I want to protect this.

which csm thinks incrusions are too profitible

CCP’s economist is the one with the final say on profitability, as it affects inflation. “too profitable” is to be taken with a grain of salt. Nullsec alliances farm moon goo that almost never gets nuked on its way to market because of JF’s. Is this not carebearing? Incursion runners can at least be ganked easily. What I’d like to see fixed is the farming – making all types of incursion site fun and profitable, rather than just having on Vanguard be done over and over again in record time while the Mom goes unmolested. That’s silly even from a RP standpoint, I hope we can encourage CCP to modify incursions so they can run their course in a reasonable time and spawn elsewhere.

which csm thinks sp reset for plex is a good idea

This is extremely controversial, and as a younger player, I’d need to have some more extensive conversations with a wide number of veterans before I advocated for such a change. If it WAS ever to be implemented, I think it should be in extremely small numbers, and once every 6 months or so, similar to a neural remap. It’s purpose if implemented should to be to recycle “junk” skills not being used, (like starter industry stuff on a combat toons, or weapon paths you gave up early on) never to radically re-spec your character for a new purpose in EvE.

which csm will push for more profit in low sec

I will, without a doubt. I want Factional Warfare profits to come from capturing plexes, and killing players, not from farming PvE missions. Putting more PvP back into the missions is great too, but however you slice it I want my militia friends to be paid to pew, not paid to shoot rats. There is plenty of that else where.

Also, as a booster manufacturer, no one understands the lack of low sec rewards more than me. I’ve spent extensive time running low sec scan sites, looting blueprints, mining gas, hunting for treasures, and ALL of it could use a general isk bump compared to the risks involved. I want to entice more people out of the safety in high sec by making low sec truly rewarding.

For a lot of us in low sec, the pew pew in low sec IS the reward, this is a core part of my campaign message. I want to see more ways for casual PvP to be fostered, less GCC downtime, less gnarly gatefire preventing small ship use in the region designed for small ships.

which csm will push to fix the frag warping

I’m assuming you mean the side drifting?? I’ll certainly be asking about this. It bugs me as well, especially with all the new graphics it’s a lingering issue that breaks immersion.

which csm will work towards fixing the new push jump then log exploit

Death to all logoffski tricks!! Cowards should not be spared their ships. I’ll certainly be looking into this and seeing what can be done.

I completely understand isk faucets and sinks, I've spoken on this issue before. Part of what can be done to adjust this is to modify the payout method in terms of balancing the raw isk bounty value, possibly shifting more value to the LP reward, which can act as an isk sink where items require cash to be traded in alongside LP.

I wasn't comparing Moon Goo to incursion cash payouts directly in terms of inflation, I was only comparing them in terms of risk / reward. I understand that Moon Good still needs to be traded for isk generated elsewhere, and doesn't create cash.

The inflation call is one that needs to be made by the economist - if it gets out of control, measures should be taken, I agree.

I have a question... who is this trebor daewoo and why is that desperate piece of **** sending me spam?

Which csm was responsible for the super cap nerf


Everyone on the CSM asked for it.
Many of the candidates, including myself, are specifically discussing a nerf to blobs of titans, since solo titans are just fine, it's fleets with dozens of them that are now reachin critical mass.


Which csm was responsible for the learning skills reset

That was more CSM5, Trebor had a lot to say about it.



which csm wants to make electronic frigates point supercaps

Lot's of people are suggesting that EAF's need a boost. I have a Kitsune that's seen so little use it has Large Rigs on it, unlike these other candidates who are just jumping on the bandwagon.

which csm thinks these bc and destroyers skills changes is a good idea

I specifically started a thread for candidates to discuss these changes, I suggested several modifications to the process which makes it fairer for old and new players.

which csm thinks incrusions are too profitible

Economic statistics point to hi-sec incursions being a driver of inflation, there's a strong argument for iterative balancing of risk vs reward for all activities. In general I like the idea of incursions because they encourage cooperation and competition between players, but it's already evolved into a system of 'push button, get money',


which csm thinks sp reset for plex is a good idea

Not a fan of PLEX modifying training regime, the playerbase has indicated they're not supporters of the concept either, so I'd stand by this clear message from the players.


which csm will push for more profit in low sec

I've been arguing for Drugs and Hacker Codes as specific resources that should be uniquely harvestable in low-sec. I'd like a whole expansion devoted to adding more content and features primarily to lowsec. Back in CSM5 there was an effort by players to come up with a well rounded collection of ideas to enhance low-sec. Hacker Codes would provide a new toolkit that would be usable by pilots all over the universe, but only lowsec would have the intersection of criminals and law enforcement to make the tools available. Example of black codes would be a replacement for locator agents, modules that make it harder for fleet members to arrive on scene, codes for hacking POS towers etc.


which csm will work towards fixing the new push jump then log exploit

I'm against any game behaviour which doesn't match the spirit of the intended mechanic, there are a number of issues surrounding session timers, and timers under time dilation that need to be addressed ASAP. I'm also watching wardec changes to see if they can eliminate the abuses the current system allows. Not a fan of the margin trading mechanic abuses either, since it doesn't fit with the intention of the skill.
