Missile Guidance Computers are useful for a Golem whether it uses torpedoes or cruise missiles, but a target painter bonus can only be built to serve one of the two. Neither module is better than the other; they are different modules. The Missile Guidance Computer is generally better for the solo ship using only missiles, but target painters affect drones and other fleetmates including their targeting speed.

As the Golem is meant to be a solo ship, I support changing its target painter bonus to a bonus to the use of missile guidance computers. You could continue using it as a fleet PVP ship if you wanted, but its bonuses would no longer be suggesting that it is meant for fleet PVP, because it isn't.

And we need more reasons for tier 3 tech 2 battleships, not less. I'm not satisfied with pidgeonholing Marauders into fleet broadside role.


I personally would rather it not have a bonus to MGC or MGE, and would rather they just be given something else entirely.
Besides, CCP would never give it a MGC bonus as it pigeon holes them into being forced to use a module, which honestly is a reason why they should remove the TP bonus.

That said, either they would need to be given a bonus directly to torp and cruise application, OR they would need to be given a different bonus or changes be made to the base hull such as drone bay and B/w.
