We still need a few days to be able to put it on the test server.

Just a reminder for next next patch

"EW mechs’ main role is to disrupt from the distance, this means an EW module optimal range bonus for them."

We have revised that idea based on feedback and they will get a factional weapon cycle time bonus instead smile

No estimate yet, but we'll have a devblog about it during November.

well, noone would mind more range with LoS restriction on them, because you alse hinted that the existing bonuses will be nerfed anyway wink

btw, you should update the blogpost if that range bonus was unintentional in there.

As it was stated in the blog, "These can still change as we will still go through all of these modifications again in the coming week."

A quick note about the gamma terminal limit, cause I think we didn't mention this yet or wasn't widely known:

So far we had two rules:
1. Max 3 terminals per island.
2. Max 3 terminals per corp per island.

The first rule has of course overridden the second, however in tomorrow's patch we're only removing the first rule, the second rule stays.
