Small scale pvp is guerilla warfare style pvp. One way that would help this tremendously is this.
1) Reverse nano nerf.... and bring back 90% webs. Also reduce sensor strength and lock range by 20% accross the board aside from frig class ships.
WHY? Nano gives ships a chance to engage and leave when the enemy brings 2 billion people. Now the reduced scan res and range will force these nano ships and most all ships for that matter to come into or near web range or sacrifice tank / ew mods for sensor boosters.
Then the webs - 90% webs means gallente will be able to use blasters again! Also its a counter to the nano for all four races.
2) Sniping - sniping in eve is dead right now! So nerf probing.
WHY? 99% of eve pvp happens on a gate or at a station. You know that is correct. So for a small gang to pvp they usually have to go enemy space. Enemy (WILL) have probes on the gates and stations ready to go when they know enemy forces are incoming. As such, your small gang ships will be scanned down and probed in under 8 seconds. If you are warping into a sniping spot on a gate or station, predeployed probes will have your spot AS YOU LAND! So nerf probing time wise and give snipers a chance to come in, hit and warp out. There are tons of other counters to this btw other than probes but require some skill.
Also nerfing probes would negate the need for unprobable ships that yes even we hate with all passion!
3) Some how you will have to bring hotdrops into line as well. Be it a spool up timer for cynos or some other means, however a small gang will be decemated when they have 40 Black ops, or 50 supers dropped right on top of them because its so cheap for titans to use their DD's, or for any cap to use fuel that cost wise its meaningless to drop onto tiny targets.
Also why we are at it, can we nerf jam drones!? They are uber op. Also reduce jams period to ten seconds, this way you can still be jammed but with a 20 second cycle timer then you have 10 seconds to lock and defend yourself before you are jammed again, or a g ood jammer will cycle jam, but this way some skill is involved.
There are many other fixes to this, but these are what come to mind right now.
