So with the neut nerf confirmed, are we gonna see a drop in prices for neut bonuses ship and neuts themselves?

Did they say what the change was, seemed kind of vauge or perhaps I wasn't paying attention closely enough.

Is this the talk of cap batteries being able to reflect nos/neuts or something?

If so, then no, no impact. No one fits cap batteries.

Why the relentless neut talk Herman? Has your alt gone and bought too many of them?

Medium neuts might drop, their prices are way above their reprocessing value.

Large neuts reprocess into a reasonable amount of high end minerals, and given the current rise in high end minerals across the board, I think they will go up not down.

Ah yeah that was it, that cap bats could act as a "reverse" on a neut. If someone zapped you and you had a cap, the neuter would neut them selves. Thus nueting nuet nueters.

Stupid change, better that the Cap Battery gives untouchable cap, but then you could argue ECM needs a module that allows for a minimum of targets. The reflect should be blocked on ships like the PIlgrim and Curse since that is what they do.

I totally agree here. There is a similar thread in one of the other channels. The 'neut' ships like Curse, Pilgrim, Bhaal etc shouldn't suffer from this change.

Oh boy, this is going to make flying an archon so much more fun, should also lower the outrageous prices for the bahl. It's a much needed change. May actually see people use cap batteries since... well... ever.

this "nerf" if good for armor incursion ships, the anchor's could use a cap battery so they dont get neuted out by the rats, there for can start using active hardeners instead of passive ones because its "un-neutable" cap

It's not a 100% chance - so just because you fit a cap battery, doesn't make you immune to neuts.
