When you look at the stats of cap power relays you come across the wierd aspect that meta 4 modules have better stats than meta 5 (T2). They are intended to increase cap recharge rate in exchange for lower shield boost bonus. The step from meta 4 to meta 5 gives no increase in recharge rate but 1% more shield boost penalty.
Meta lvl 4: Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay Recharge rate bonus: 24% Shield boost bonus: -10%
Meta lvl 5: Capacitor Power Relay II Recharge rate bonus: 24% Shield boost bonus: -11%
Is that really working as intended? I think they should have 25% recharge rate and -10% shield boost because you need more skilltime to use the T2 module. |

Yes, many meta 4 modules are same or better than tech 2 |

Ok this is the first i took a closer look at... i just dont get the point why something that is advanced and therefor harder to use is made less effective. Its just confusing. |

Try checking the price difference between meta 4 and T2 mods though. |

No miracle here... when nobody wants T2 because the stats are bad compared to meta 4 the price will drop and the other will raise. Thats the consequence of this nonsense stat distribution. |

Meta 4: Only available through drops, so limited supply, thus high price. Tech 2: Player manufacturable, so 'unlimited' supply and lower price.
Tech 2 might be marked as Meta 5, but it really isn't. it's a completely separate list. Meta 4 are often better and easier to fit than tech 2. but a lot harder to find.

Tech 2 actually IS marked as meta 5, but i get your point... maybe the only problem then is that T2 must be seen as a completely different list while the meta 5 tag is confusing. |

Tech 2 are designed to give a high amount of stats at a high cost, that includes CPU/PG and other negative effects. Meta levels on the other hand is supposed to be better in all stats and sometimes they reach the same level as the t2 ones. |

100 mil meta 7 and 8 faction guns, and 500 mil meta 9 officer guns, do less dps than 1 mil t2 meta 5 guns. It would have been a simple matter of fitting meta 5 neatly between meta 4 and 6 for all mods, but CCP opted to make up weird stats all over the place for it instead. |
