Probably if you read the bonus on battlecruiser it would make sense too you. 99% reduction in the CPU need of Warfare Link modules. If that still confuses you then get someone to read the big words too you.



I seriously doubt many people use the drake as a command ship. P

So close...

Actually, to be completely technical, cars have between 10 and 50 wheels. You are excluding the gears, flywheel, camshaft/crankshaft heads. No only that the break disks can be considered wheels as they are also circular in shape.

Not even funny, no cars do not have 5 (called run flats for cars with no spares...)
Way more than 6 if you want to count the steering wheel...
Last time I checked that "5th wheel" was a spare I could use, do tell me how to use the spare hard point on the drake?

O also... I use my steering wheel to drive... idk how the **** you can drive with out one?

I guess we smart ass you dumb ass?

It's a spare High Slot on the drake. If you want to fill the 8th hard point on the Drake model, fit a salvager to it.

OP forgot to mention the fact the draek still has it's modelled-in launchers.

That's a Templar, an Amarr fighter used by carriers.

Would be nice if this was part of the rebalance to the Drake, considering the shield regen and kinetic bonus are getting reduced, would be nice to have the 8th launcher hardpoint.


Your ability to read patch notes is bad, and you should feel bad.

Drake is getting more DPS (With an all damage types bonus) and more Range, it is not a nerf its a buff.


Considering the tank is the Drakes biggest selling point, range never really was an issue and CCP will never give it enough DPS to really be competitive (and it are still missiles we're talking about here), it IS a nerf.

The reason of the Drake's popularity isn''t because it's so grossly overpowered, but because it's one of the very few ships in EVE that has a very well-defined role for which it has little competition. 'Bringing it more in line' with the other ships would just be the most stupid thing to do and will make Tiercide a failure.

wtf is this blarf? seven = seven. Not eight. Not six. Not nine. Seven.

And the CEOs spake saying "First thou shalt purchase thy missiles, then thou shalt fit launchers to the count of seven, nor more, no less. Seven shall be the number thou fit, and the number of the fitting shall be seven. Eight shalt thou not fit, neither fit thou six, excepting that thou then proceed to seven. Nine is right out. Once the number seven, being the seventh number, be fitted, then lobbest thou missiles towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
