![]() ![]() Or whatever, All I have to say is Arty ships shield tank and while the tempest is a good arty ship I hope the tier 3 is a better one. I'm sure with the bonuses that are given to the ships the tempest would probably be the better short range or what ever ship while the new tier 3 would be the dedicated Arty/sheild tanking ship. If they make the tier 3 BS have 6 Mids(7 would be so much better though ) and 6 or even 5 lows I do not think this would replace the tempest. It would be nice to have a minmatar BS that is a dedicated shield tanker. You ask why, they shield tank better! Jammers, meh friend, jammers. If you forced it to shield tank by swapping a low slot (two minimum, really) to mid, the third Gyrostab wouldn't contribute enough damage to compensate.Ī moot point, perhaps, because CCP aren't going to add a BS which replaces the Tempest's role. The AC Pest relies on its jammer to make up for its low damage output. Most will take option three: fly a Tempest instead. If you reduce the low slots and so can't effectively tank with that amount then your either going to accept been an egg shell and go EW or put shielding modules in your mid slots and sacrifice EW. So what you guys are saying is that because people can use the mid slots as EW then the minmatar shouldn't get a battleship with more mid slots than low slots? at the moment people can use the mid slots for ew more due to having enough space in the low slots for a tank, if you reduce the low slots and so can't effectively tank with that amount then your either going to accept been an egg shell and go EW or put shielding modules in your mid slots and sacrifice EW. No your wrong, slot layout does have an effect however people try to fit ships in the way they want. Or when we have wonderful T2 resists that go hand in hand with shield tanking and enough slots to pull it off (jag, vaga, sleip, claymore) Suvetar, care to confirm these rumours about you being an unstoppable sex machine? If the placeholders are any indication, the tier3 is going to have the same slot layout as a fleet tempest which still means it can't solo with a shield tank - rest assured most people will probably be using the standard ac/armour tank tempest with 2 jammers instead of 1. "Are you prepared to go all the way, Alexi?" DuGalle However, don't mess with the Tempest.Ĭurrently, the only time Minmatar shield tank is when they don't expect to take much damage. When the silliness is removed from EW then we can talk about a shield tanking Minmatar ship. Ofcourse slot layout does help to DIRECT a player towards the developers vision of that ship. Shield Tanked Typhoon is great for ratting against Angels.Īnd that's nothing to do with slot layout. ![]() I agree, give minmatar more mids so that we can jam, err I mean shield tank better. Perhaps if a low slot was moved to a mid slot it would be different but as of now its a better ship when armor tanked. Yes but it isn't dedicated to it and most players use the mid slots for EW. How about CCP throws we Shielding players a bone and give us a true Shielding BS so all Minmatar can enjoy the goodness of Battleships the way we want to play them. The problem however is that most people seem to believe and as I have read on many forums has some official air to them say that it will be an Armor tank, Why? Isn't Minmatar meant to have ships that do both Armor and Shield? Isn't the only battlecruiser at this point in time dedicated to shield tank with a shield bonus. Thread Statistics | Show CCP posts - 0 post(s)īeen a fan of Minmatar and the option to shield or armor tank dependant on the ship I was looking forward to the new tier 3 Minmatar Battleship, With most of my points in Shielding I expected that as the Typhoon and the Tempest were clearly Armor tanks as they both have more low slots and medium, that the new Tier 3 Battleship would be a Shield tank. ![]() » Click here to find additional results for this topic using Google Minmatar Battleships, Wheres our Shield Tank?
