Do you have any idea about a 30% speed increase is?
I hope it’s a typo.

:facepalm: you would just make any Fighter reach the 500-600 speed barrier, while guards will easily rech 400-500

And we haven’t even started talking about intys. Imagine max speed + strafe + adaptive shields.

Well, I am nostalgic of the “700m/s days”
I think the idea behind that change is clear: you have to decide Gigas or Cheetah. And there are also many ways to reduce afterburner speed, so I dont see it much of a problem. Consider ir a Tackler buff.

Me too, but not ona Fighter!
A senseful change would be 9 or 10%

+10% on AB speed is reasonable… The projectiles got 10%, too.

Not a typo. “Gigas II” gives you 27% damage reducction to all sources with 3 enemies locked on, which is too much in my opinion.
No it doesn’t, check your math and how people build their ships.

no one in the right mind

If you don’t use R4 Fed one you’re doing it wrong.

Which is that one again?
Missile turning rate and speed bonus, something like 20-25%.

I do when I’m using Torpedoes (EM) and Cruise missiles.
I’m still waiting to see this implant working on the Anomaly Generator…

Eh, I could understand a slight boost in speed, but yeah…not 30% Maybe they could have 5% increase on intys, 10% on Fighters, and 15% on frigates. Thoughts?
However, I completely agree with the shield tanking changes, though I think they’re overdone. Something more subtle would be nice. Right now, Jericho ships just get pwned by empire. At least, Shield tanking gets pwned by hull tanking.
