Delphi Grendalus Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:08:00 - [1] Edited by: Delphi Grendalus on 29/05/2009 22:16:31 Edited by: Delphi Grendalus on 29/05/2009 22:14:57 I just got shot for like 500dmg from a range of 15km. How am I supposed to match that when my rockets wont even go past 6km? For too long now Minmatar have had it too easy. They are the best in PvP, their guns have THE BEST dps and volley damage and also don't take any cap AND they can do any damage type in the game. How is this fair? With lasers I can only do two types of damage and I run out of cap in like 2 shots. With missiles it takes me so long to reload that my DPS is very low and with hybrids my range is too short and my damage is terrible because my tracking skills are very bad since I mostly use rockets. I don't really like Minmatar and I find the idea that they shoot bullets to be very silly. In a frictionless environment everyone should use missiles and hybrids like in HOMEWORLD as standard weapons and Ion Cannons (laser turrets) should be for shooting at cap ships ONLY. Tear-stained ISK is the best kind of ISK.

Miss Arutha	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:24:00 - [4] Oh rockets rockets how I love them, you know you have made it when you have rockets 5 and are able to take down a tempest solo. I guess your skills are just not right. Have you tried pressing UP, DOWN, LEFT , LEFT CTRL and T if you do this when firing them they gain 50% extra damage. also you are better off moving at 1/4 speed. hope this help you
Zeba Minmatar Honourable East India Trading Company	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:31:00 - [5] Originally by: Delphi Grendalus Hihi! Ned Attn plxx. Originally by: Fifinella As to trying to scare me with 0.0/lowsec, well,..... I've been there, and wasn't very scared at all. Only a little.
Obsidian Hawk RONA Corporation	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:31:00 - [6] you need moar skills also switch to light missiles, you get more range. kthxbai.
Distorted Perception	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:37:00 - [7] Trolling is an art that takes subtlety, which you badly lack.
Tressin Khiyne Minmatar The Ronin Syndicate	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:47:00 - [8] Amarr are the damage gangsters. You have no skills. 500 at 15km is weak, you're lucky you weren't getting owned by a good gunner. LOL @ your signature -- Save the SEXY in EVE!
Thuranni ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:47:00 - [9] Originally by: Delphi Grendalus I don't really like Minmatar and I find the idea that they shoot bullets to be very silly. In a frictionless environment everyone should use missiles and hybrids like in HOMEWORLD as standard weapons and Ion Cannons (laser turrets) should be for shooting at cap ships ONLY. You do realize that what most of the ships in the homeworld series are using is "Mass Drivers", aka projectiles?

Krystal Vernet Minmatar Gradient Electus Matari	Posted - 2009.05.29 22:54:00 - [11] Originally by: Delphi Grendalus They are hybrids. You realize hybrids are just mass drivers that fire metal slugs at really fast speeds? Just like a big gun. They're just fired in a different manner than the artillery and autocannons Minmatar use.

Yes I do realise that which is why I find the whole idea of using "projectile" class stuff to be very stupid. Tear-stained ISK is the best kind of ISK.

If I am such a horrible troll then how come I managed to make you post in this thread? Anyway I'm not trolling. Everyone knows projectile turrets are over-powered. I'm just saying what everyone is thinking. At least make them use as much cap as lasers if they are going to out DPS them and out range them. ------------------------------------------ Tear-stained ISK is the best kind of ISK.
Leaving Eve Boo Hoo Federation	Posted - 2009.05.29 23:04:00 - [16] Edited by: Leaving Eve on 29/05/2009 23:03:55 i can pop a frigate at 90k in less than 8 seconds from locking. edit: hybrids, btw

You didn't manage anything except a little more ego inflation, I just really enjoy posting in fail threads. Btw, where your alt that is going to claim the almighty power house shot?

I'm just saying what everyone is thinking. At least make them use as much cap as lasers if they are going to out DPS them and out range them. I bolded the seriously funny parts. Out DPS AND range lasers? edit: And yes, I realize this is a troll post, but it's fun mocking the stupid and ignorant anyway. /deep breath Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahah/inhale/ahahahhahahahahahahhahahaha You, sir, are funny. You should be a stand up comedian... no, really! Lasers have almost non-existent load times, EXTREMELY far optimal (which is where the main damage is done), don't have to reload unless switching ammo type, and their drawback for all of this is to be cap-hungry. Aww.. Comparing projectiles to lasers is laughable. You can go cry in a corner now, since you are already crying now. Seriously... if whoever killed you did it with drones, or hybrids, or missiles, you'd cry for a nerf for those, too. Pitiful, really. We should meet up sometime so I can make you cry some more. _______________________ Once a BEE, always a BEE!

In a frictionless environment everyone should use missiles and hybrids like in HOMEWORLD as standard weapons and Ion Cannons (laser turrets) should be for shooting at cap ships ONLY. In Conclusion: In a more realistic game Projectiles = Civilian version of turrets. EVE is unrealistic enough without BULLETS and MORTAR SHELLS causing more damage then PHASERS and TORPEDOES!! Watch any Sci-FI, those two weapons ALWAYS cause more damage then bullets. Why do you think they use phasers in Star Trek and turbolasers in Star Wars? I REST MY CASE It sounds like you ventured out with a low SP Caldari character and got rocked by a decent Minmatar pilot. To further add to your dismay, wait until you encounter Scorch ...and I mean a character that can use scorch without their cap draining in two shots
