I understand the tracking penalty in siege was removed, but the wording in the patch notes about sig resolution on XL guns was confusing to me. Does it apply to dreads or not?

So do I have better tracking now, but my hits are calculated against the 2k sig radius?

Or was tracking nerfed overall, so my tracking in siege is the same as out of siege? I noticed my tracking number don't change when I enter or exit siege.

Tracking nerfed but siege tracking penalty removed. The 2k sig radius is only used for Titans though.

^wrong.

tracking in siege is now 2x what it was before.
the XL gun sig rad (regardless of ship) is also 2x what it was.
it the tracking formula, these two cancel out.

the thing that only applies to titans is the scaled reduction in DPS vs lower sig radius ships.

Dread out of siege mode is nerfed, but in siege mode remains the same.

Dreads are pointless being out of siege mode so no real big change. It only does the dps of a Battleship with crappy tracking out of siege mode.
