High yield shell cannon in 3.3 beta

Has anybody tried cannons with high yield shell in beta yet to see what they are like after the balance pass? What are they like now for module damage, and also for hull damage if no modules are targeted?

Are these being worked on?

I was planning to strip & sell all my High Yield Cannons due to them having become virtually useless after their nerf.
I guess I'll hang onto them for a while longer.

I can't find the reference, but IIRC someone posted that the damage nerf had been reduced from 50% to 35% and there was a reduction in fire rate that I can't recall. I'm going to wait until the usual number crunchers have done their experiments and posted their results.

Damage: 50% -> 30%
RoF: ~ -10%
DPS: ~ -35% (before -50%)

It's still an either module damage OR raw damage weapon. It's not like you can not deal module damage with normal cannons either but the splash strips MRPs incredibly fast. Don't use them for direct module damage/sniping purposes, use them to strip MRPs fast and then snipe with railguns, PAs, cannons or lasers.
A C4F HYS cannon can be used for sniping as well but eve na C3F is already meh.
