I haven't tested it out myself yet (trapped in classes) but I'm starting to wonder if we'll hear the bang from the CNR market crashing even further.
EDIT: Not for any real reason other than a mild panic from certain circles of mission runners who don't like what they see.
Naven prices have crashed?? really?

Originally by: Goyda Wanna kill a missle laden battleship, just get 4 or 5 assault frigs with after burners and you can speed tank cruise and torps. I have wicked missle skills and we tested it. I could not kill the AF. cruise hitting for 11 and torps for 7. I'm just not sure how this makes sense. like saying a REAL battleship would not be able to sink a small destroyer or frigate. sheesh. well it was bound to happen I guess. Every mmorpg I've played turned into making the game easier for new players and the carebear players, which is about the time I moved on. I didn't complain when they nerfed NOS, made sense. And now it's nearly impossible for a battleship to kill a frigate ! like saying you can't squish a bug with your boot because you're SO much bigger than it, and it has a small sig radius.
ugh... and yes I have PLENTY of cheese to go with this whine.
Yeah but a real battleship shooting at a real destroyer is shooting at something that is not only closer to its own size than an Eve AF is to a BS, but also something that is moving much closer to its own speed.
Of course a real destroyer may also be packing weaponry capable of doing massive damage to a battleship. Armor-busting guided missiles, for instance. No shields IRL.
But in before "no comparisons with RL ships plx"
yeah but a RL BS, would one shot a destroyer. :)
uh... no, it wouldn't, i cite the actions of destroyer group Taffy 3 at the battle off Samar during the engagement at Leyte gulf, where one destroyer took several hits from some Japanese behemoths... as proof, i offer this:

True, but a RL BS wouldn't be bothering to fire at destroyers anyway since they used to be screen keeping away the torpedo boats that could sink a battleship.
Imagine what a mess things would be if CCP introduced the equivalent of torpedo boats.. tiny ships that battleships can't even target that carry enough firepower to potentially sink a capital ship with only a few hits.
Sounds almost like an SB to me (an SB that fires torps... hmm) |
