Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

Quit your whining, its pointless. It's NOT constructive and its counter productive in trying to achieve any real dialogue.

If the armor resistance modue that moved around isn't as good as the new shield mod, then we should make it take cap mods, make it a huge boost to resistances based on incoming damage, but make it cost cap charges.

I could buy into this. Cap energy can easily and realisitically be converted into shield energy, I don't see why cap energy cannot be cannot into some type of energized resistance field energy of sorts.

Gallente has more mids and bigger/stronger drone bays than Amarr. If anything, this would be a nerf to Amarr, Gallente just suffers a bit less. P

Yes, it makes other ships melt like they had nothing but wet paper for tank Pirate

Anyway, CCP is looking at balancing armor rig penalties, I'd guess it happens after summer.

Meanwhile, I enjoy the fact that we got fast, high-dps shield tanking ships, and slow, wonderful active tankers and big ass buffers.

I''ve never felt tanking to be a problem for Gallente really.

Er no his pointing out something he feels is un balanced is very constructive as it initiates a conversation on the subject in which we can try to get a consensus (the consensus bit was humour btw, the rest wasn't)
