Cruisers Sell for about 8-10m ..
Battleships sell for about 150-175m ..
T3 Hulls sell for 450m-750m ..

Why is it suddenly unreasonable to expect performance that scales with cost ?

Mmm, tell me more about titans.

It was a PvE nerf.
I said it before, I will say it again. It was done to balance Dust combat mechanics, based on Line of Sight. We got rolled.

You're forgetting at the extreme ends of those Legion and Loki ranges, not only are you doing **** all damage from the long range ammo, you get the added impact of doing **** all damage because of falloff. (Double the **** all damage!) Tengu on the other hand is still doing its max damage at the extreme end of its range.

I lied :o

DPS isn't everything. You still have your cruiser sig radius and speed, and your battleship hit points.

FT Diomedes: "Reaver, sometimes I wonder what you are thinking when you sit down to post."

Frostys Virpio: "We have to give it to him that he does put more effort than the vast majority in his idea but damn does it sometime come out of nowhere."

Yes, that's clearly what happened what with our having an official Tengufleet doctrine and all. Not trying very hard today are we?
HML nerf feels about right, a well-fit HML tengu still does some pretty fearsome long range damage, and is actually viable to use HAMs on now!

(The precision buff to rockets, HAMs and torps is incredible btw, thankyou whoever in CCP finally saw sense with that).
