Like @Lucy_Alfrir pointed out, 9 bombers seem like the right number.
The author gets carried away because it’s 9 toons from the same person, the mental trap here is, one person killed my marauder with 9 bombers.
I think it’s probably ok, if it were 9 catalysts I would agree something is wrong, but bombers are made to torpedo Battleships, just like submarines.

9 submarines sank my ship ???
I think the issue is that someone like Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz ordered them to deliver a coordinated and decisive blow, to a reinforced fishing ship…
Something totally unexpected because no one has thought about what would happen if you send out a fishing ship for fishing in a warzone while it looks battle capable.
And the fishing company now thinks it lost its only income source, not realizing that it can send out much cheaper built ships that can produce the same income but have a better income to ship loss ratio, because they are of no interest to the fleet admiral as he doesn’t care about non-reinforced ships.
I have no clue how they managed it without bumping into each other… but well done to the one out of those nine who managed to launch a torpedo.
I want Asteroids tractor beams possible so a small cruiser could form a shield of Asteroids like an Amazon creeper bug does with black ants; or use wrecks, and with changed objects occlusion-collision mechanic, direct line of fire would no longer not deal dmg through them. Marauders with free high slots could camouflage tractoring small asteroids around it, and use them as “extra” EHP…
The same would apply to small ships ofc… gankers could also ambush behind an asteroid big preys… except missiles that could get around…
This has little to do with Marauders in general, it’s a mechanical change that would affect every aspect of combat in all scenarios.
Anyway.
I’m still recovering, so I’m not ready to get back yet.
I can wait for the full cycle to close so something good gets our Marauders not such losers…
A 1000% Electronics Buff whilst in siege mode with Faction bastions would compensate a tiny bit… being able to lock small gankers faster than they can lock you, could be one NICE such change…
1.5B isk modules would better have some good reasons behind their use, other than just some dps or some kind of tank mix, which is every faction Bastion case, it looks more like an April 1st fool joke than something useful…
Even a diminshed Cycle time would be 1000% better than the mixed tank approach.
Also a 10s tank EHP cooldown when going inactive and preparing to warp would be a cool feature to consider… those 10s window before warp out attempt are when the 100% tank buff erasure are the most significant weak point. A smooth cooldown curve instead of an abrupt return to normal paper tank would also be kinda cool..
As for the perma ban comment… the day Devs will cease to change every two weeks something about our ships, then there would be much more consent build-up on what is deemed acceptable or not to continuously refute. That is not the case. So it should be also be considered completely normal the revival of threads about the stuff that has been changed. It’s just a perspective. A convenient pespective to call out something you see as obnoxious, when your time dilation is not compressed as often. Cheers.
It’s pretty sad to read this OP. Look after yourself.
You’ll probably have a happier life in EVE if you find a group of friends to have some adventures with in ultra cheap expendable ships rather than get caught up about losing a Golem. What’s done is done.

Do you want the moon on a stick too?
A small moon with Mango flavour, dipped in blue ice? Yes plz.
Jokes asides, Warping through a Moon or other objects is curving space-time technology, so no, it that sense not all collisions should be altered.
But it would be cool to see a train of Icy asteroids being trucked by a big ship, just outside a facility, and park them there in mega-container-bubbles, to be consumed by the station-facility, or even wormholes-holders (???)…
You do realize then the ‘baddies’ will just be camping it out in the belt until you come out from behind your asteroids? You’re even more certain to be killed off, because everyone will flock there.

Are you sure? I don’t think the OP has gotten over it and accepted it yet.
Last time i have seen his desktop he was about to build up a fleet for multiboxing, either for some kind of revenge or maybe the plan is to get into the marauder ganking business himself…

Would not be a bad way to replace some of what he lost, actually.

If you would stop using tractor on asteroid - it will smash you. If you will try to warp out with asteroid near - it will smash you. If someone will shoot asteroid in your direction - it will smash you.
Yeah, having more ways to smash BS is better.
That thing was too shiny for me to look at, way too much bling.
I died in HS once in a velator. That’s enough for me to learn. Never been gank since then. “Adapt or quit”. Thanks to Gankers I never been bored surviving. Stop blaming others for your loses. They are just doing their side of the game.

Several players attacking a ship should have diminishing returns, pretty much like module stacking penalty, right?
