404. The Issue With Shields - in General Discussions [original thread]
TTK is a thing that needs to remain balanced. Too short and the depth of using cover, pressure/retreat, damage profiles, movement, regen and support gets lost. Too long and the depth of positioning, flanking, strategy and EWAR get's lost. TTK bei...

406. Small Turrets = Bad? - in General Discussions [original thread]
Theoretically they are good, based on stats, but in game I find them to be pretty terrible. It's almost impossible to hit anything with a small rail turret. And it's almost impossible to apply any significant damage to infantry with a small blast...

408. The Issue With Shields - in General Discussions [original thread]
You can still fit damage mods to shield suits, which I do frequently. I don't think damage mods are the problem.

409. The Issue With Shields - in General Discussions [original thread]
Weapon profiles are a bit of a moot point, because whilst laser weapons do +20% to shields, explosives do +20% to armour. Also both combat rifles, and crucially HMGs, do +15% to armour. So I don't think weapon profiles are the issue. If we consi...

411. [CPM Feedback] Shield Stats (version two) - in General Discussions [original thread]
Come on Apidem. Gallente buffs in the OP are very similar to Caldari buffs. Shield buffs hold more value for Caldari suits, and besides, balancing armour and shields wasn't the intention of the thread. I'm much more worried about significant buff...

Meh, maybe it will all be fine. If scouts need buffing CCP could always role back some of the cloak nerfs a bit. If sentinels need buffing CCP could always role back some of the HMG nerfs a bit. If shield tanking needs more of a buff, there are...
