Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Yeah, with some rough numbers the Stabber will have similar speed, another LSE II (netting it roughly 30k ehp), 30km falloff with short range ammo on 220s with 1 Ambit + 2 TEs, and around 315 dps with 2 rapid light launcher + 1 warrior + 2 gyros which would be needed for frig defense. As well as hopefully enough cap to run point + mwd stable.

Turning it into an excellent kiter. However I think it should get a small increase to drone bay/bandwith, 2-4 light drones would be much appreciated as currently the dps even at point blank is pretty low.

I was curious about the whole 1 drone thing still... seems pointless - even my Sacrilege has 15m3 to it and it's a Khanid ship...

The stabber I think could use 3x drones (warriors for anti-frigate).
5/1 slot or a 4/4 would be interesting... but whatever there... split weapons are a minmatar thing... just hard to work with

can't see neuts or nos there because this thing has a speed kite feel and if your in range of that your in rane of webs and there goes the speed tank.

I am not sure how this ship fits into the attack cruiser role - seems morre like a fast attack ship that needs to hit and run, but it doesn't have the punch... rather like my Sac again... it tanks like a beast (unlike this which speeds like a beast) but can't hit hard enough to do much.

Anyone have a fit with the new specs to round out how the stabber would fill out in this role with the changes?

changes look fine, my question is where is the kinetic damage type coming from caldari,

they don't seem to have a preferred damage type that the other races are generally locked to, isnt galente default ship resists tailored vs caldari kinetic?

is there any thought to giving galente the same-ish omni damage tank that amarr have as a defence vs minmatar damage variance type? the now more selective damage type the caldari hulls can utilise vs the explosive hole in the gal hulls,

i havent been back long into eve but i recall the kinetic missile damage bonus was to trade vs the resists you had the option of exploiting,

i have read the heavy missile changes and that may go some way to equalise the damage potentials but to my understanding that still leaves non Heavy missile ships a potent buff

again i havent been back for long and have forgotten/missed alot of the stuff that has been implemented over the last few years, so feel free to enlighten me,

cheers

Is the "agility" the same as the inertia modifier?

Well this will finally make a pulse legion what it should be in PvP, ergo I pretty much endorse this...

They just need to release the 'unreleased' t2 ammo for all the races. If its to awsome just leave the weapon penalties on it. I'll gladly trade sig or speed for my abaddon to fire lasers that do EM and EXP.

I know the concept of combining a bonus has been considered but rejected before, but I think that if the Stabbers first bonus read:
5% bonus to Medium Projectile Turret and Rapid Light , Heavy Assault, and Heavy Missile Launcher firing speed
...people might feel more comfortable with the slot/weapon layout.

No more MWD bonus on the Thorax?

That....sucks.....

How would you propose that we fly the new Omen? I suppose we could theoretically run XL ASB with a disruptor and FMP? The 3 mid slots and no optimal bonus is crippling when comparing the ship to the Thorax, Caracal, and even Stabber.

He likely thinks that the Bellicose will be a better HAM platform due to the fact that the Bellicose has a bonus to Target Painters, which will make it more effective against smaller ships. That's the only reason I can think of though, because with 1 less launcher, it'll have to make the sig on that dessy/frigate really big to make up the difference.
