Currently the rest of the T1 frigates are all getting worked on (very excited about that) but in what order will the other ships be updated?

Will T2 frigates be overhauled next or will T1 dessy's and cruisers be changed before their T2 counterparts?

Thanks for any info =)

Judging by the fact that tech one frigs and dessies seem to be taking about 6 months overall to get done, I would say that finishing tiercide will take about 2 years total (so they will likely be done by summer of 2014).

I also think that CCP Ytterbiumm said at Fanfest that tiercide applied to T1 ships only for the moment and that T2 were less of an issue, but would get some love in good time (CSM minutes mentioned love for the BlackOps BS's being in the works).

For those interested, the master plan is posted in this Dev Blog.

Thanks for the link. I saw https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1807627#post1807627 yesterday, but I couldn't find the CSM post that is mentioned.

If it's true it would suggest T2 frigs might be tweaked next, though. I'm new and excited about all the changes and just curious what I have to look forward to.

CMS Minutes

Its in this PDF Document that is linked in the CMS devblog.

The ship balancing discussion starts on page 121. I think the BO's mention is toward the end of the section.

Enjoy
