You're wrong, the phantasm is easily the best ship here now.

Rise, you need to buff the cynabal, it's currently a crappy ship RIGHT NOW, as it is overshadowed by the vagabond which is superior in all ways. A long time ago the cynabal was good when it was the king of speed and damage projection, but now that we have taloses, t1 cruisers that go as fast as the cynabal, and ships that are more tanky overall, the cynabal is a very very lackluster ship.

Vaga's better by pretty much every conceivable metric. Even price.

i can't wait for the pirate BS "rebalancing" where they turn the machariel into a really expensive tempest

i assume the ashimmu align time is a typo??

Just checked it out and 100mn ab phantasm with lg snakes and two nanos and republic fleet afterburner goes 3.79km/s. Though allign time is 22seconds even with low friction nozzle joints.

Oh, the gila never had a role bonus to light missile and rocket velocity. All this changing of bonuses around is taking its toll :p

literally copy pasted from the worm :^)

Also that Cynabal. -280 Powergrid? It was a fun little ship that had a few advantages and a few disadvantages compared to the Vagabond, though considerable more expensive.

But now that it will require a fitting rig and cpu implant to get the same fit that many people now use? And a greatly increased mass that decreases mobility? No thanks. Vagabond every time. Especially since the last round of HAC buffs.

a few small changes.

first i would add 5mb to the gila so if it wanted to it could use 5 unbonused light drones.

Second like most people the angle ships are kinda meh it needs some cool role bonus.

by removing one turret and increasing the fall off to 75% and upping the rate of fire bonus to 7.5% per level you end up with a really cool and long range kitting ship or king arty.

Wow, I really like the Gila change! Drone-kiting finally possible - also thanks to the medium drone changes? \o/

does nobody else remember that huge thread we had where we all got mad about webs, and in particular, 90% webs? I'm fairly sure some CCPs agreed that webs are stupid.
