All,

After crowdsourcing, data crunching, reviewing internally and discussing with the CPM, we are ready with a non-finite list for Hotfix Charlie. As always, this is the narrative and any, all or none of the ideas may end up being implemented.

Hotfix Charlie
* Primary Objective Assault buff, we are looking at a HP increase, universal changes in slot layout, one additonal slot at ADV and PRO and improved PG/CPU, slot based approach. Possibly improve Light Weapon fitting bonus. Possibly a slight speed increase., add Grenade fitting bonus, 5% per level.

* A slight HMG heat buildup increase

* Reduce Sentinel PG/CPU. Introduce a fitting bonus to Heavy Weapons. Update slots according to Universal Matrix.

* Installation buff, with a range and AI range reduction, reduction of granted WP for destruction.

* Blaster turret accuracy improvements, both Small and Large

* Modification of scout bonuses, with Amarr getting a precision bonus, a low radius strong field of scanning on top of a heavily armored suit, and Caldari retaining a long range scan ability.

* Minmatar will be improved by a Codebreaker fitting reduction, possibly KinCats as well. Possibly moving Codebreakers to High slot (maybe Delta. PG increase.

* Nova Knife hit detection, range and damage improvement, plus PG reduction.

* Reduced small rail range compared to sniper range

* Move all logistics to the same number of Equipment slots per tier, removing the Amarr sidearm. Reduce Logi speed slightly and remove Cloak fitting bonus. Same total of high and low slots as well per tier., tagged for Hotfix Delta, see Slot Layout discussion thread.

* WP for injectors, STD/ADV/PRO 25/50/75 WP

* Reactive Plates to 1-2-3 hp/s

* OB WP doubled

* LP payout increased x-fold

* Remove Ambush OMS or remove Vehicles from Ambush OMS, Ambush OMS stays with vehicles and buffed installations, revisited in Delta based on new feedback.

* Reduced ADS ISK price

Still under tech evaluation
* Disabling passive Scan sharing with squads
* Suicide/Bleedout/Overview option properly enforces that revival is not possible
* We have identified almost all the suits that have the wrong colors and are trying to get those fixed.
* Reduce ISK cost of early skillbooks for new players or free
