Please redirect the issue from EM damge to individual ships. Curse, pilgrim, sentinel, zealot, prophecy, omen, apocalypse, maller, arbitrator, work on them, they all suck not because of EM damage but becauses they simply suck as such.
Did you read the whole blog? There is another blog coming with changes to the broken amarr ships that you mention.
This change is good because there might be a reason to fit a maller with lasers eventhough it doesnt have a damage bonus.
Unbonused lasers should be inline with unbonused hybrid and projectiles. You get different drawbacks/advantages but one of them (like the laser) shouldnt suck so badly so that amarr ships start fitting other racial guns and need to train for them to use a crap ship.
If the Curse and Pilgrim get buffed Ill eat my own hat.

Bit of an 'off the wall idea' this one. What if EM resists on a ship were a function of:
Base resist + [Cap %]/2
Obviously youd need to adjust the base shield and armor tank of each race - say giving Minmatar T2 a 50% resist to shields then add on the cap % / 2. As your cap fluctuates so does your resists to EM.
Just an idea.

CCP Zulupark,
I think what people are after is a boost to Amarr: not an adjustment to every ship and race in the game. Applying a 'catch all' solution probably isnt going to work as there are far to many variables (as some have pointed out this solution actually improves some minmatar set ups aswell).

You must have missed my post where I stated that we have another devblog coming out very soon that lists some boosts to specific Amarr ships and Ewar.
Ok, I stand corrected: but you can appreciate how players can interpret dev blogs -the last one hailing an amarr 'boost' had a pretty unremarkable change to tracking on medium turrets iirc.
The Amarr 'problem' has been around for so long now that expectation levels are very very high - you're almost certain to disappoint many. There's probably a lesson to be learnt in there somewhere.
I think you should consider how you 'quantify' your blogs - perhaps more detail is needed, extrapolate out to the future. The infamous 'carrier nerf blog' is a case in point, I realise you were suggesting changes for open discussion there but it came across as a fait a compli. The same applies here to an extent.

Originally by: CamelKnight I just want to know: are you stupid? I mean, I don't see NERFING EVERY SHIP as a BOOST to Amarr. Perhaps because it's NOT A BOOST.
One of my chars is 50+m sp. You just turned it into nothing. I might aswell start over as one of the real races with real damage and real defences. Or better yet. I might be better off quiting this game as the developers clearly have water for a brain.
Cool - if you can be so good as to transfer your 50mil SP char to me, along with all of his stuff that would be excellent.

Hmm. From what Ive seen on sisi some of these changes are pretty, well...drastic. I generally fly a curse, and well its not great but it can just about survive some engagements pre nerf/boost.
Now it gets 2 shot volleyd to bits by an apoc that it cant even target its so far away.
Im not sure where the devs are going here - kinda worried really. Like "subscription in doubt" worried, and I never figured Id say that...

When's the boost coming for the recons??? - specifically the pilgrim which is basically a joke of a ship at the moment.
