Xyleya moon7empler Ev0ke	Posted - 2008.08.03 20:18:00 - [1] Why's there no Heavy Assault FoF Missiles in the game? .
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2008.08.03 20:24:00 - [2] I.e Heavy unguided fire and forget missiles? For the same reason why there aren't F.O.F. rockets, or Torpedoes. They are unguided missiles.

They are unguided missiles. So? FoF's are also unguided, as I'm not able to choose the target they're firing at. .
Elaine Celeste	Posted - 2008.08.03 20:48:00 - [4] The short-range high damage variations (rockets, assault missiles and torpedoes) simply don't have FoF missiles. Don't see what the big deal is... CELESTE LOTTERIES
Jim Raynor Caldari Shinra	Posted - 2008.08.03 21:06:00 - [5] rockets/assault missiles/torpedoes are unguided missiles lights/heavys/cruise are guided missiles unguided missiles do not get a FOF variation, guided missiles do there is no issue also, fof are quite useless. ------ I'll make a sig later.

Don't see what the big deal is... Jammers and only having 15m¦ Dronebay. The DPS of a Sacrilege is not really impressive compared with the other shortrange HACs, and is even outdamaged by a Cerberus using standard Heavy Missiles. So to make up for it, it would be nice of having the ability to still do some damage when jammed. Zealot has zero Dronebay aswell, doing zero damage while jammed. A Cerberus can load FoFs, a Deimos has 5x Med T2 Drones, an Ishtar loosing no damage at all, and even a Vaga can load FoFs into it's Heavy Missile Launcher + having 5x Light T2 Drones. Amarr-HACs get the shaft here of beeing the only races HACs you can completely shut off with a jammer. Even worse for the Zealot as TD's reduce your damage dramatically aswell. So I'm asking for Heavy Assault FoFs, that would make the Sacrilege alittle bit more competitive in that regard. .

Sacrilege is freaking good how it is... ------ I'll make a sig later.

In a pve fit it can do 489 with max skills, 3 BCS and no rigs, while still keeping a great tank. A Cerberus will do 344 with max skills, 3 BCS and no rigs, and its tank is worse. That's just how high-damage rockets, assault missiles and torpedoes work. You sacrifice range and FOF missiles for far more damage. Can't always have the best of both worlds. CELESTE LOTTERIES

Sacrilege is freaking good how it is... Not even. It does far more dps than a drake, although of course the drake has more EHP. Give up a bit of defence and put in 2 BCS and you still only reach 321dps with max skills. And PS to the OP: I don't really care whether unguided missiles get FoF missiles, tbh. Sure, they'd be useful at times, and not terribly overpowering, I suppose. I'm merely presenting what I'd guess is CCP's reasoning for not giving unguided missiles FoF varieties. CELESTE LOTTERIES

Amarr has the weakest Sensor-Strength and I get jammed about 50% of the time I fight someone that has 5x ECM 600 onboard. Your tank and DPS mean nothing, if you're jammed that often. And a Sacrilege using 3x BCU II in PvP has no tank at all to tank a Zealot, Deimos or Ishtar. And try the Sacrilege on SiSi atm, without going 3+ km/sec, where you've to fit it for heavy tanking: 2x MAR II, DCU, Thermic Membrane II, EANM II to stand a chance and make up for your low DPS, which is now reduced to somewhere around 300-350ish including 3x Hobgoblin II. .

You're wrong. And all HAC got slowed down tons, so please keep playing your little violin as we all got nerfed. Sacrilege is fine, it has DPS, it has TANKING, it has CAPACITOR more other HAC would be envious of. It's also insanely easy to fit and has tons of grid. Yes your little pwnmobile gets jammed its useless.. just like every other ship that gets jammed. Sorry, you can't be a ROCK STAR and keep on pwning when you get jammed, get over it. ------ I'll make a sig later.

Ishtar does nearly twice the damage and the drones are still fighting while jammed. And if fitted for tank, it has little problem tanking that 300DPS from a Sacrilege. Ishtar also has a spare MedSlot for that TD or Multi ECM and all Highslots free to add up damage or fitting a Neut. Also, besides the Deimos and the Vaga the Sacrilege has less Range then most other HACs. You've to get to around 15km for your HAMs to hit the target, where the drones of a Deimos alone do 150 DPS and the Vaga also very capable of still hitting with it's huge FallOff. But back to the topic anyways. I don't see any reason, why there should'nt be FoF's for Rocket Launchers, HAML or Siege Launchers. .

I've gotten jammed plenty of times and my drones just sat there all stupid saying I need a target lock to engage them. First: the target has to be in drone-control range. Usually under 50km as noone bothers to train up Electronic Warfare Drone Interfacing. Second: Go to the drone-settings and select: agressive. Third: If your drones are allready fighting a target, they'll fight it aslong you tell them otherwise, even if you're jammed inbetween. But I'm still asking, why can't we get FoFs for Torps, HAMs and Rockets? Simply makes no sence, not to have them and just saying "because CCP said so" or "because it's been this way allways" is not an argument. I wan't FoFs for my Heavy Assault Launchers. .
