' Wrote:The problem with capital ships is their shield regeneration rate / maximum shield ratio. No one other person who isn't in a capship can break the shields of a capship no matter HOW hard he pounds on the thing.

I propose the following rebalance.

Increase capship maximum shield tenfold.

Decrease capship shield regen to a quarter of current rate.

if this were true, fighters and bombers would not be capable of taking out caps.

Yet, last night, A blood dragon bomber I was flying duo with in sigma 13 engaged a bounty hunter battlecruiser (I did not engage, as I did not have supernovas or any other decent equipment at the time) and by himself took out the BHBC.

So apparently capship shields arent as good as you're saying.

Likewise, back when I flew bloodsail (rogue gunboat), a single LSF fighter (guardian I think) with two shieldbusters (imp debs) managed to burn my shield while I was unable to do a damn thing to him since he was easily dodging my shots. Without missiles, it's not easy in the least to take out even fighters with a cap - and cruiser/battleship missiles are much less effective than gunboat missiles at that.
