Damage 1.4 been changed?

[evovi]

Is it me? Out doing some bounty hunting last night and I picked on a viper and python npc wing - My beams ripped through the vipers shields in seconds, and my multicannons did a similar
Job on the hull and he was dead faster than I've ever been able to do

My beams where fast on the the python shield as well but hull seemed to take a while... I can't recall them being that squishy before - on the contrary whilst I was taking out the viper - the python didn't do much damage to my shields ? And normally being a noob combat pilot 2 ships are a flappy stick moment for me

Depends on Rank. Lower Rank ships have lower ranked modules. Regardless of the ship.

Got jumped by a Federal Gunboat and whatever weapon he was using had my shields gone in 3 shots, but when he hit my hull only knocked me down 6 %

Tangoed with a mere competent conda in a cz yesterday, and it was just impossible to get out from its nose, and he kept dumping shield cells.

Although he wasn't really hurting me bad I was just not able to get him down to hull so when i started getting aggro from other npc's i had to bail.
And I have considered those low level conda's to be easier than most vulture's..

There's definitely some wonky ness when I play yesterday evening even after the servers let you log in..

Interdictions are hard as hell to get out of now as well..

Sarah Jane Avery (the AI programmer) did say on Twitter that "We had no idea what was coming" and she was working on this a long time before CQC dropped and was pulled off of it at some point.
