Post your candidate for retirement here and why

EVE ONLINE NEEDS AN ENEMA!
It’s not what you expect, not from CCP, CSM, no player group or alliance, not this time!

I think there are some hulls that… well, need to go and don’t even qualify for make-up or buff.
If you think you have a valid or in-valid point to propose any hull for the shredder and landfills, or perhaps a full set of them, now is your chance! Let’s have some fun!

All Titans. It was a stupid idea back in 2006, it’s an even more stupid idea now.

Tech 3’s. All of them.

Doing the jobs of other ships better than the other ships. Bringing the power of larger class ships to smaller class content.

Forcing gimmicky buffs onto T2 ships to keep them relevant thus leaving T1 even deeper in the garbage pile.

Interdiction nullification in general but also on cloaky ships.

I could go on…

Kinda with this.

Specialization means nothing if you can get ALL the bells and whistles on one hull…

T3 cruisers at least they were interesting before subsystems castration now they manage to be both boring and OP.
Faxes too oppressive in cap and small gang
T2 trig stuff.

Saddest part of T3 “rebalance” right there

Tech3’s (cruisers) had these problems before fozzie and rise were devs. After their conception they were never going to be easy to balance.

I know it’s never going to happen, but boy do I wish we could hit the delete button on them.

Hehe… don’t trash it, but rename it:

The Hila

Okay, seriously, the Typhoon was old when the Army handed it down to the Marines. It should be in a Museum.

At this point anything Tech1 is basically obsolete unless there’s no tech2/faction/tech3/Triglavian upgrade :frowning: and even then prolly still.

The specific item classification placed on the Cargo Bays of these T1 Industrial ships should never have been implemented, basically made these ships obsolete.

Minmatar Hoarder = munitions cargo bay.
Gallente Kyros = minerals cargo bay.
Gallente Miasmos = asteroid ore, ice and gas cargo bay.
Gallente Epithal = planetary commodities cargo bay.

I think those ships should be retired / removed from the game so that each Faction would then have one small and one large Tech 1 Industrial ship available.

Sigil
Bestower

Caldari:
Badger
Tayra

Gallente:
Nereus
Iteron Mark V

Minmatar:
Wreathe

I’d miss them, but I do understand your reasons. They do overshadow too many other cruiser hulls to the point I’ve never bothered with any of the HACs.

Pertaining to Tech 3 Cruisers, the only thing that should be removed is the skill point loss. If anything they should have higher skill requirements since they are specialized ships…

Other than that, they’re fine.

Wut? Specialised how?

Specialized in the fact that they can be customized to perform a variety of different tasks. For a long time players kept asking for a ‘Do it all in one’ type of ship, T3 Cruisers were the answer to that.
