I'm curious why they haven't nerfed the Inferno yet since they've nerfed both the Ion & Redeemer already.
Ares Ion is nerfed to crap in the PTU
- Thread starter Montoya
- Start date
Supposedly it's turret rotation speed was slowed down & a few other things I heard recently, but I'm not entirely awake yet.
*shrugs* My gut feeling is that CIG realized that they sold too many of these ships that will be most useful after more large ships are in the game. So they nerfed them for the sake of "balance" & will hopefully restore them to what they should be if you consider the components for their specs instead of just whatever in general. As I've said before, from what I was lead to understand from something CIG posted a long time ago, each size component is supposed to be slightly stronger than 2 of the same type component of the next size down. Thus, if you're hitting an Idris with the Inferno, the Ion & both of the main turrets of the Redeemer, they should be doing approximately the same amount of DPS to some degree based on if the shields of the Idris are up or not.

The Inferno has had its aim assist removed, on top of the idiotic spread from the gatlings, on top of its low DPS and alpha strike damage.
Both Ares are a waste of time currently.
Well some random git in an inferno made short work of my mates MIS and my Pisces earlier at jumptown. 12 boxes we'll never get back.
WHAT A GIT! :D
