Aparently, after nearly a 200 reply thread later, it _probably_ turns out I am.

You’ve given more time talking about me in this thread than you ever could spend with me ingame.

Quite a feat, want to go on ? I can go on, can you ?

I remember a long time ago making a thread about the newly buffed stabber, during the removal of the tier system for ships. Even with a falloff bonus it couldn’t out-DPS a hurricane at 24km (the maximum range of a T2 warp disruptor). It did terrible damage, didn’t have the fitting to use big guns and didn’t have the slot layout to solve any of these problems.

The Vexor on the other hand was phenomenal after Drone Damage Amps came out and had to be nerfed.

I really don’t know where cruisers sit right now. It’s been… 14 years? since we nerfed the nano-craze, and it was done so heavy handidly that anything larger than a frigate can’t realistically use speed to mitigate damage from larger ships (ignoring 2.5billion HALO implant sets).

I don’t want to push power creep, but we really don’t see cruisers being used as much as they should. I don’t know what the solution is. They are fragile, MOSTLY don’t have amazing DPS and have trouble fitting good setups due to PG/CPU restrictions. Add on to that - medium weapons have been made significantly worse against frigates and you’re left with ships that die to everything and only do well against each other.
