With Kronos due in just over 3 weeks, is there any chance we'll get a sneak peak of the new Mordu's Legion Garmur frigate, Orthrus cruiser and Barghest battleship stats?

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Well, they released the new stats on the Prospect - didn't they?

I suspect there's a blog post being reviewed, or a quick CSM pass being done before it's public. Soon!

I too am curious- for too long I've been dreadfully near being little more than a number crunching/theorycrafting forum warrior. I want to actually get back into the swing of things, and take these ships for a spin. From what I understand from the keynote, apparently they're all going to be second to Angel ships in terms of mobility, which may be... Scary.

Master handling these on Sisi, so that I may find some friends on TQ and actually have a killboard again...

Itching for this information as well. First time I've wanted to go "pure" missile boat. Those designs are just too sick. Golem will likely be more dps but when you just do PVE mostly it really doesn't matter. I'm curious what the other 12 new ship skins will be for as well.

Pirate ships are specialist, so it should have more dps than the Golem or Navy Raven.

I figured Marauders were still technically specialists as well being T2 and having Bastion Mode. Maybe not as much so, but I assumed it'd do more damage. I'll be pleasantly surprised and hopefully if it does. I don't know how much use I'll get out of the warp scrambler aspects of the Mordu's as I've never needed it in PVE.

Must admit, I'm extremely curious as well...

Though weren't these going to be missile velocity & scram range bonused? (With high speed.) That doesn't necessarily sound like a DPS monster to me. (Though it would be nasty with long ranged torps...)

not entirely.. the stats are probably not even set in stone yet.

I kinda missed the fanfest due to technical reasons and I keep hearing about some Mordus?

Now you even have ship names and I get twichty..

So whoever is responsible for making these, can I have them?


Aww maan, not even a peak??

Oh and does that mean that 5XX- somewhat in Pure Blind is getting a pirate LP store instead of the Caldari one?

Do they get implants too?

And will the bpc's drop in Gurista plexes in Pure Blind or somewhere else?

Or will they have the 'normal' pirate boat rate of 800.000 LP and 200.000.000isk for the battleship?

And can I get 5 of those?

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!

Missiles, with a bonus to velocity but a penalty to flight time. Thus you get similar range, but the missiles arrive sooner. Apparently this is important to PvPers.

They will be fast, scram-range-bonused, missile-spewing pancakes of kiting pwnage.

Which would be totally fine with me.

I'm just curious if they might have lower than average Signature Radii, a bonus to reduce Micro Warpdrive sig radius increase, or maybe both.

I mean, they said they were specialized as kiting missile boats, so I think such bonuses would work well for them.

Also, they said they based the designs off of Lockheed Martin's Skunkworks aircraft, so I also think such bonuses would be cool as that's what those aircraft specialize in.Blink

I love the design of the Mordu ships, and I'm quite interested to see what sort of stats they're going to have. We know about the missiles, speed and scram, anyone have a guess to how the bonuses are going to lay out?

I'm guessing we're going to see some sort of missile bonus on the Caldari side, ROF or damage if they're meant to brawl or travel time if they're meant to skirmish. Either armor repair speed, if brawlers, or scram distance if skirmishing on the Gallente side. Finally, Missile velocity/distance bonuses on the role with speed just built into the stats; Scram distance may be built in to the role, but again it depends on what they're expected to do.

Anyone else want to hazard a guess?

*Edit* I didn't know they were already said to be kitting boats, lower MWD sig radius makes perfect sense as the Gallente side. It matches up with the HACs.

That's why I was hoping they'd post the stats… Lol

As long as they're better than the Nestor, I'll be happy.

So much promise... Cry

That's the same thing I was thinking after CCP Fozzie mentioned them being kiting boats during FanFest.

do we even know what race requirements will be?

From the fanfest presentation, it sounded like BPCs will drop from special spawns all throughout lowsec, similar to clone tags. Fozzie didn't mention them being available at the LP store.

Just gotta wait for the devblog.

Never forget.
