I've been replying to the forums today. I'm just gonna list some of the smaller tweaks and changes here.
Ships
Powergrid of Sacrilege, Deimos and Muninn increased to 1100MW, 950MW and 1100MW respectively
CPU of Sacrilege and Deimos increased to 350tf for both ships
CPU of Anathema, Helios and Cheetah increased to 280tf, 290tf and 275tf respectively
bonus of covert ops ships changed so it reduces cpu need of covert ops cloaking device from 98% to 100%
Agility of battlecruisers and command ships boosted by 20%
Nighthawk's explosion velocity changed to launcher rate of fire bonus
Ship hitpoint increase, about 50% for tech 1 and about 25% on tech 2. A bit more on battlecruises/command ships and destroyers/interdictors
I didn't really check it but I'll probably increase shield recharge rate by about 50% as well just to be on the safe side
Modules
Inertia stabilizers give decrease in mass as well as agility and give a penalty to signature radius
Warp Core Stabilizers now give penalty to targeting range and scan resolution, about 50% for tech 1
Super weapon damage increased by 50% as well
Shield extenders and plates increased by 50%
ECM changes - I'm blogging about that one, hopefully comes later today
I think this all of the stuff that is not big enought to deserve its own post. Btw I did mess a bit with tech 2 ammo, I'll post a bit about that later. |

You do realize that I meant recharge time by 50%. That means that the peak rate does not change at all. |

Ah. Your first post said recharge rate, and above you said recharge time. Sorry I misunderstood... An increase to recharge rate is good (the rate that the shield is recharged is increased) , but an increase to recharge time is bad (the time it takes to recharge fully). Do I understand it right now? |

50% more hitpoints? Can we get a bit of a boost for artillery too then seeing how their advantage of high alpha is pretty much being negated and their disadvantage of low DPS is being emphasized by that? |

Hiya Tux, some nice changes overall. The HP increase should help make combat longer and more fun! Great. However, I still feel the Sacrielge needs some reworking. Hacs are supposed to be specialised ships, and every race but Amarr get 2 distinctly different ones. Amarr get two that are very similar, a Zealot gunboat and the Sacrilege - a poor mans zealot. I dont understand the reasoning for making the Sacrilege just a subpar Zealot. If its going to be a damage sponge it needs damage sponging bonuses, like a rep amount, HP and cap capacity/recharge. It cant be that difficult to give the Sacrilege a role can it? Den |

You understand it right. The problem is we use so many times rate when we should use time. It is of course wrong but I can't really shake it off. It gets worse with agility though, in EVE its better to have less of it
Agility is better when it's lower? ok, trying to get my head around that! I would have thought a higher agility is better, like tracking speed - the time it takes to rotate the ship to the direction it's trying to go :) I can appreciate the complexities of standardising the language across skills/ships that describe modifications to the stats. Can the player base help decipher inconsistencies by using Bug Reports for descriptions that could be explained in a clearer way? |

Effectively means no more arty use for the forseable future then unless you give them a serious dps boost, also means the new teir3 minnie bs will be even more gimped in fleet battles  |

Ah c'mon I just started getting used to having sub-par damage with Minmatar, now you go and give everyone more HP? I guess I wont be training Minmatar Cruiser lvl5 for a Muninn anymore.
Oh, and a slight shield recharge rate penalty for WCS would be nice too. This really craps on stabbed up Stabbers/Vagabonds, Ferox/Nighthawk, etc.
But some of that sounds pretty cool. |
