Can we please change the snub changes back?

The addition of the aux slot is actually a huge problem in this regard, as you would now have no real drawback from additional, consistent, DPS. And missiles are, for better or worse, consistent DPS in their current form.

Is there maybe a way to give Heavy and Light Fighters dedicated Aux slots to mount tracking missiles on? This would give them a real reason to become viable again, and might also warrant going up with the ammo count to 50 again. You are still susceptible to CDs, and have less ammo, so you have a decent drawback to it as well.

I feel like you really didn't think this post through. This solves none of the problems I outlined in the post you quoted, and puts heavier weapons on a ship that is harder (in most cases) to hit.

LFs and HFs definitely need to be reworked, but giving them heavier weapons in their current state isn't the way to go about it.

Now if they were losing a gun to compensate for the addition of a missile, without having an aux slot? As in, putting HFs into more of an omni-mech role a la Battletech? I think that would be pretty interesting, since it's a lot easier to justify trading consistent DPS for consistent DPS (gun for missile) than inconsistent DPS for consistent DPS (razor or maxim for missile).
