Quote:Capital ships have a role bonus that increases the module cycle time by 5x
Forgive me here,
Considering you're a flying brick with this active and can't receive remote assistance. What is the advantage of having a longer entosis cycle time? Is this the new 10 min siege cycle :) |

What is the advantage of having a longer entosis cycle time? Is this the new 10 min siege cycle :) It isn't an advantage, it's a penalty. In this case the idea is that a Capital has to be without remote assistance for longer to make up for the fact that capitals are very hard to kill and there's no restriction on throwing a Carrier into Triage or a Dread into Siege Mode while you're using an Entosis Link.
That's fair, I guess the stock terminology "Role Bonus" implies an advantage. (Which it typically does) |

So basically, this will discourage the use of capitals for structure warfare. This continues to give weight and reason for them to be used as serious fleet support ships in the future meta. |
