Battle Razors..

[Blodo]

Problem is they both use the same weaponry, nerfing it in order to balance one undersized ship is going to cause problems for all of the other large cruisers and battlecruisers, for the same reason that improving speed/range on cruiser solaris turrets - while needed for the carrier - would overpower smaller cruisers.

Ask for changes to the ships, not the weapons. You cant balance a weapon universally when you have 20-30 different ships, all ranging in stats from size to armor to manuverability, using that same weapon.

Well here's the thing, your carrier got BS shields already, that's more than enough to allow you to fly up to others and then pound them from a shorter range with razors - or - do what cruisers are meant to do and sit at range and lob projectiles over at the other caps. Razors are closer range weapons in case someone happens to decide to begin the fight by cruising up to you, or you decide to do just that to him.

The Kusari dessie can hardly be nerfed any further without making it useless. Right now we need to strike a balance in weapons, because it's not just that dessie, but also the OC dessie (as mentioned above) and a few other light cruisers especially are able to take advantage of people needing to come close to hit them right. In that case a cruiser razor speed nerf is in order I'd say.
