Ok so any player that's been around from the closed beta knows that there has been a massive change in the game, this is of course expected no game runs for over a year and doesn't change, however the problem comes in when the nerfbat started busting balls. To make the game easier for new players to join and compete there were changes made to higher level gear such as:
Base HP is no longer increased by suit tier.
Many weapon's damage were brought closer together from STD-ADV-PRO levels.
While I disagree with these changes I can see why it was done, however this thread isn't for complaining about that no matter how much I dislike them.
Because of these changes it's become possible for STD level gear to absolutely decimate gear far above it's class very quickly, tankers using PRO mods on your fits you know what I mean, the PRO versions of said gear only giving slight advantages when it comes to gear most noticeably on many weapons baring a few exceptions with damage mods being the only way to secure a respectable gap in power, the mass driver is a prime example.
Despite the very small advantage many of these things have a rather large price tag, a price that is not warranted by the small jump in effectiveness, concerning the future of dust/eve interaction if this continues why would a pilot waste isk on a merc team in PRO gear when another merc team could do their job just as effectively in a less costly STD fit?
Because of this I'm requesting the prices on STD-ADV-PRO gear be brought closer together or more to the point for PRO gear to be lowed in price to be closer to ADV level gear; the minor jump in effectiveness of these items just don't justify the massive cost.

This game needs more risk v reward, not less.
That's just it too much risk very little reward and there be where the problem lay.
And I'm a scout so I'm going to die regardless. |

Yet people pay for them. Because if your going to fly a 100 million ISK hull you want to pay that extra ISK to make sure it comes out alive at the end of the fight. If STD is so close to PRO then why make this thread? Why not use STD gear and laugh at all the PRO users you kill?
Mind you in eve it's the core skills you've trained that have the larger impact and not the ship you fly |
