Major Update for Legion, arriving on 9 Sept

armor doctrines gain speed

That’s going to be interesting. Apoc Fleets outtracking their guns with their newfound speed. Abaddons still cap-neutralizing themselves with the prop mods and laser fires. I also wonder how they are going to prevent TeFIs from becoming oppressive.

while freelance pilots now find daring new opportunities, including the order to destroy another capsuleer.

That is definitely going to be contentious. I wonder how they will implement this in a meaningful and not broken way.

I’ll be pleasantly surprised if they touch more than null stuff.

A change to armor speed sounds like a general change, not just null, even if it is only for a few ships.

“wormhole UI enhancements” even if its just not having to wait 2 minutes for a bookmark to appear that would be a great improvement. look forwards to seeing what they come out with

Common rookie pilot mistake

Sure but until proven otherwise I’m going to assume it’s balanced around null and focussed on null, let’s call it pattern recognition. Having said that, quite a few ships and some ship lines need rebalancing so it would be nice if they touched on that, problem is that those ships are mostly not for null so… yeah.

“these changes are about more than balance: they’re about breathing new life into the battlefield. This update creates room for capsuleers to experiment, adapt, and explore. That’s when EVE is at its best.”

Or, translated into English, “ You’ve yet again spent months training into ships we are now going to nerf “

That’s what you get for training into ships that are currently in the meta!

Try training ships that are rarely ever used instead, then you can be happy with changes like these! (Or wait endlessly, like my poor Naglfar pilot)

One day, you will have them all trained so it won’t matter as much. Not that the nerfs make much difference.

Sooo..is this like the US Congress? The update has to be applied so we can see what’s in it?

Asking for a friend.

This is just standard practice for this game (and many others).

They are going to add more wormhole connections to wormholes so you can connect to nullsec and grind the exploration sites aswell and call it exploration fixed, Polymarket anyone? :slight_smile:
