You're right. Belugas are also self-immolating nightmares when jumping to hyperspace above a low-gravity world.
In other news, the T-10 buff is marvelous news! I already liked it before, but now it'll be brilliant.

Great news!
They can be, if you mishandle them.
Mine runs at a nice, cool 31%, and barely exceeds 75% when Frame Shifting (first video) and a pleasant 33-37% in the second, reaching 65% when dumping 3 Plasma Accelerators, unless I "hot jump" - jumping while or just after fuel scooping.
Like I said, different ships for different pilots, but does not invalidate the Beluga's standing as a Big Ship.
Type 9 needs another c8 slot at least, that's would unbalance anything.
And the Type 7 needs its 5th small hardpoint, dang it!
This is so much good news, i might actually keep one now
Yessss! Well maybe the big 3.5
I totally feel that the Type-10 stands toe-to-toe with the Anaconda now. Better at some things, worse at others. The class 7 PD pushes the Type-10 into the Big-4 now. In fact, I may even sell my Anaconda once 3.0 goes live, as I prefer the type-10 for a multi-role mission ship.
I enjoy mine as an anti greifer, 4 Frags, 3 Torps and 2 Missiles, fully engineered. If they get hit they get hurt, and with it being a lot more agile (in practice) than my Cutter, I find it much easier to keep on target.
This upgrade is really welcomed for the shield recharge beyond anything (from my selfish perspective).
Love it.

Yeah I will be keeping my Cutter because for bulk trading nothing in the game touches it. But for my uses I don’t think I need the Anaconda anymore (it’s a multi-role mission ship), as I prefer the Asp Explorer for exploration.
Maybe I’ll keep the Annie as a dedicated passenger rescue ship for the burning stations as it it is really good at that. But I might be able to do the same thing in a type-7 and put that money elsewhere, as I want a 8A thruster unit for my Cutter.
Indeed. I feel like it more rivals the Anaconda now than the two rank lock ships, which is perhaps a good thing. The rank locked ships still have their extreme positives. But now we have 2 legit big multi-rolers.
The T-10 isn't bad in a burning station either with it's great heat capacity, which also gives it one more small reason to maybe use when exploring instead of the Conda, which is still superior in that arena.

Now the Python just needs some healthy competition in the medium landing pad multi-role category and we are all set. Welcome to the Big-4 Type 10 Defender!
Made me laugh at work - bravo! Have some rep
Happiest guy alive to read that specific patch note. It is as it should be.
I reckoned you’d be happy with this change kofeyh. Go ahead and say it. Big 4!

How did that feel?
I do like the Type-10, it's great but I have one problem - the Thrusters are a HUGE target, and NPC's LOVE to shoot them out whenever they get the chance.
Now on my part, I am running Glass Thrusters (Grade D), so I may well look into upgrading those, especially under the new Engineering system, as I've never "god-rolled" anything, so I figure I've little or nothing to lose here.

I'm running G5 8A dirty drives with a very modest integrity hit. The drives are still very fragile even with module reinforcement packs.
Only saving grace is that I typically get those malfunctions that add instability before the drives die entirely. Enough warning to reorient and prioritize getting shields back.
