Support. Absolutely.
The Gallente Recon ships used to have a role, and actual usefulness prior to the RSD nerf that came with EWAR balancing. This probably needed to be done, as the OP mentions, RSDs were being used in all sorts of ridiculous places. However - the Arazu and Lachesis in particular are not even pale ghosts compared to the other race's Recon Ships. The Falcon is the ubiquitous PvP condom, and even with nerfs, the Rook will likely take up its position in most fleets. The Minmatar ships, I'll admit I don't see much of (then I don't see many Minmatar ships), buff webbing, perhaps one of the most useful game mechanics there is. The Pilgrim and Curse are simply vicious little ships, that for their size and price are nearly without equal.
The Arazu and Lachesis - why even fly them? |

Edited by: shi''ako on 07/04/2009 13:30:19The old nerf was needed no argument, but without a boost (especially to the Gal recons) they just became too weak compared to their counterparts.  More range and actual effectiveness would be ideal.  |

They can, with a bonussed ship like the Arazu. The Falcon can do it all much better indeed, but if you take Arazu vs Falcon the Falcon will get nerfed as ECM is chance based and probably occupied jamming that battleship. And how about breaking into missions? Falcon fails at that. :) Damps are not totally worthless now but they still NEED a BOOST! supported. (woops*, I accidently hit the report button instead of the quote button, so my apologies GIDGET GLAM if you get an angry GM shouting at you...) |

Simple solution.
Rather then boosting 101 ships.
Just nerf caldari and we'll be balanced :-)

Disagree. Recon ships need a role, but CCP is doing it wrong. It's a lot more work to properly rebalance everything that needs changing, but boosting RSDs would be a step in the right direction. |

This is still an issue, whether the caldari majority think so or not. |

The issue is that on a one to one basis RSD's are actually very powerful indeed; yes they are, start flying intelligently.
However, as soon as you have a second target to worry about everything typically goes to hell.
The seemingly obvious solution is to just increase base inflicted penalties across the board for all RSD's.
But that creates another problem where people have utility slots stuffed full of them on no-specialized ships.
We've been there before.
I don't ascribe to the school of thought that says an ECM bonus'd ship should be able to cripple half a small gang (Yes i STILL hate Falcons) but i would like to see a careful re-balancing of RSD's. |

Is it so that EW should only be used on EW ships? Boost RSD instead of just the ships! |
