EVE Online's Legion expansion, set to launch on 27 May 2025, is the game's sixth full expansion since the return of the content format in November 2022. As usual at this point I intend to go through the patch notes and bring in some context from other sources. The eight subject addressed is the balance pass applied to Pirate Faction Dreadnoughts.
The Pirate Faction Dreadnought balance changes weren't mentioned in the Legacy in Focus dev blog. I imagine the changes are to make the ships comparable to the newly introduced Sarathiel.
