You have to repeat yourself about as many times as I have to apparently. Since you aren’t listening to the bit where I get it, and am talking about something else.
Because FAX are not used solely with jumping, I’m not talking about the starting at low cap part. That’s a different issue, and a tactical vulnerability if you want to jump straight into a fight on grid.
I’m talking about your claim that it is impossible to active tank a FAX at all now.
Just use the gates then, instead of cynoing in.
In what world is warping caps to grid a good practice.
Ever heard of bubbles? A bubbled FAX is right back to space ornament. That entire idea is literally retarded.

You are a very linear thinker, aren’t you?
In this entire area of space called Wormholes perhaps, where they have means of getting around the bubble issues.
Sure, it’s a different battlefield to Null, which is different to Low, but this is why I’m challenging you on your claims, because you are clearly thinking about a single use of FAX, without considering all the other ways they get used.
Are you familiar with the term waterboarding as it applies to EvE? A single dictor stops that entire play, and no you can’t shoot him, because he will be back through the gate before you can ever get him locked…its one of my favorite passtimes

Balancing the entire game around 2% of the population? Really?
So like I said everything tilted to the defender, WH included. Because they can get around bubbles.

Yeah… at this point it’s pretty obvious that you just want to rant about this and not actually have a rational discussion, enjoy your shouting at the sky, because the Devs never listen to ranting like this, if you want them to listen you need to produce decent numbers that are well thought out, showing the issue with hard facts, not just a throw away line with no evidence.
You were never interested in rational, starting with comparing cap chain capable logi against a FAX that can’t.
So kindy ■■■■ off.
Uhuh… Would you care to quote me comparing fax to cap chain logi?
At this point you are not only shouting at the sky, you are downright delusional. And really need to step back from the keyboard for a while on this matter.

You mung
And where exactly do I say anything about ‘cap chain logi’ in there. Cap chain logi clearly are not active tanking for a start.
Christ you are not worth the time.

Is the patch on Singularity the final product? if so there are still issues with the capacitor boosters on non fax capitals, my Rorq couldn’t put 1 capital and 1 heavy booster on without error popups when trying to undock.

fancy that.
I still do not understand the justification for nerfing shield and armor resists in Subcapitals. What is the reason for this? Whose ox is being gored and why and for whom? These kinds of blanket changes make no sense and are, in fact, annoying for the average player. Now I have to refit all my cruisers, frigates, etc.? Give me a reason that makes sense.

Only thing i could came up with is to cause more ship looses in pvp and pve ganks in nulsec.
This as i see it is CCPs method to reduce wealth and resource banking there.
Basically force nullsec to use the materials they have in reserves to built replacements, and force them to buy contracts for low available materials they can’t farm in nillsec.
The whole of the resource 5 stage plan to the spread the wealth through out new eden, and not have it all in nullsec, after all.

This ‘update’ completely misses the effect that this change is going to have on other players. I’ll specifically call out miners. This is going to make it MUCH easier and cheaper for gankers to kill miners. Improving the base hp of freighters is not going to change the fact that this is a huge nerf to Skiffs and Procurers.

Isn’t that kind of the whole point that CCP is going for?

It’s not that bad. I’ve already ran the numbers and I lost 12% total EHP on my Skiff. To compensate, I’ll just have to fit one or two deadspace modules instead of T2.
