A type of logical fallacy. You still do not answer the question why an RL Aircraft Carrier does not fit BS Guns. Was not an example of an Aircraft Carrier fitting them… And is a valid comparison for the point I was making, which you do not understand. > [@Erutpar\_Ambient](#): > > Yeah, kind of like how Gallente focus on armor and Caldari on shields? But they both still use hybrid weapons… > > Here’s an example: Blunt/Stabbing/Slashing/Ranged Weapons.

Didn’t you said that you know the EvE Lore? As someone mention, Cal and Gal where one. They could develop the same “tech”, but completely different. For example, Medieval Sword of Europeans was different from Arabians or Japanese. They fulfill a different role, they were developed in different environments but they are the same tech, Swords. Also, European Knights used to use their Swords, even if they take a Jap one, they won’t use it because they do not know how to. Same goes here, the ships were developed and improve to use those types of weapons. The same as F1 use a specific engine and not a Diesel one or a 747 use Specific Jet Engines and not F14 ones. And please, give me you an example of 2 completely different civilization which developed the exact same tech. And exact, I mean exact, like the Jap Sword in other civilization/country. > [@Erutpar\_Ambient](#): > > Are you saying a Megathron can’t Brawl with pulse or auto cannons? Mega will not be used with Autos or Pulses cause of Damage and Cap usage, respectively. And where this comes from? I miss it… > [@Erutpar\_Ambient](#): > > OK, how about this then. > > What if you trade “Hybrid Turret RoF and Tracking” with a generic “Turret RoF and Tracking”? > > Would that solve the problem? Maybe increase the specific roles of each weapon a bit? Like more beam damage/ more rail range/ more arty alpha? Then merge all turrets types in one. There is no reason for all those types… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/weapons-revamp-turrets-vs-missile-drone-vs-ship-bonuses/47086)._
