New and rebalbanced Caracal suffers too much from HAML fitting requirements. With HML it's dps will be a joke but HAML are just too expensive to PG and CPU. Is Caracal supposed now to be used in small-sized roaming nano-fleets with Cynabals and such? It's a bit too slow for this while having too low tank to be used in BC-sized engagements. Also 2 lights drones on cruiser is just not enough for anything, in case of Stabber and Caracal you could either remove drones alltogether and give some stats to hulls or add more bandwith. |

500 hp/s is something over the top, are you sure you are not talking about 500 ehp? Which is still a PvE only number. |

Deerin wrote:and why are all discussions on other weapon platforms and ships coming back to battlecruisers??
Because anything that actually matters starts from battlecruisers. It's BC/BS/Caps/T2/Faction. Frigates, destroyers and cruisers of course should be looked at, but for most players all those ships doesn't matter anything. Those are mostly FW/RvB ships, not the ships that 95% of playerbase use. |

Would work just fine, though 100 PG had to be added if it's supposed to work with Neutrons. LSE II gives enough buffer so you don't have to worry about lower base shield value.

Yes, I understand. But tbh armor attack cruiser conception seems flawed. Also Gallente players got used already to shield Domi and autocannon Myrm, the way CCP see Gallente is just not viable. |

If you are planning to dictate range by staying beyond 15k range, you should check the rails.
I put T2 long point to show that it has a room for it. I agree that in most cases scram will perform better on blaster boat. |

Martin0 wrote: Because gallente are supposed to armor tank and SHOULD WORK WHEN ARMOR TANKED? I hope CCP give armor some love FAST, i'm tired of Kiting Shield Online. This game should give you different ways to do things. It is advertised as THE game that gives you a lot of options. I would like to have the option to fit armor tank and not being automatically subpar with a shield tank. There are lots of ideas proposed by players that would give a boost to armor tanking without making it OP. Someone earlier in the tread who had the idea to change the penalty for astronautic rigs from armor to hull, why not doing that? And since EVERYBODY agree that the speed penalty on armor rigs is too much, why don't simply cut it down to half?
Give us chices CCP, not just "shield tank everything".
Decisions based on having to think outside the box (like shield tanked armor ships) is one of a things that make eve great game. Please leave your "if it's called Priest it have to be a heal-bot" behavior at WoW forums. |

Ashriban Kador wrote:Fixing armor tanking is easy (dunno why they haven't done it yet) On a side note: Why not have the Gallente have a similar play-style to minmatar? Armor or Shield tank with a lean towards armor, the minmatar leaning towards shields. Like that idea, will make Gallente more interesting. |
