Ok....... I love the pirate ships.... BUT... I have a question for CCP...
When can the missle ship pilots in the game expect a pirate or faction ship with the HUGE DAMAGE BONUSES that are available for the projectile and hybrid ships???
CCP are always posting blogs about 'balance' and changing ships to make them more compatible and so called 'even out the playing field'...
Well seems to me that you guys are overlooking a big part of your player base.
Missle boat pilots make up a big part of the players in EVE, so how about a pirate ship that gives the huge damage bonuses to rockets...
I like to pvp and would like to get into it a lot more than i am now. Well my main account toon is trained in missles, and I'm sure a lot of players will agree that missle boats have been COMPLETELY overlooked in the PvP fields.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE put some thought into a pirate faction missle boat... |

Faction ships aren't supposed to be similar, they're supposed to reflect the traits of their respective factions. |

You are correct sir...
So what happened the the Dramiel.... the pirate ship that USED to be a rocket boat?
Like I said... missles are completely overlooked.
How is the game 'balanced' when there are no ships (available for mass purchase) anywhere in the EVE universe that are missle platformed with the 100-200% damage bonuses that are available to projectiles and hybrids?
I say either give us the Drami back... or completely remove the insane damage bonuses all together.
CCP preaches fair play and balance... really not seeing it. |

More than the top 10 turret ships combined.
I don't see why you need a pirate one when there are the fleet typhoon, navy raven, navy scorpion, and golem |

Except for the Hawk, Hookbill, Vengeance, Caracal, Drake, Sacrilege, and Tengu and did I say Drake? missiles have indeed been COMPLETELY overlooked. And that's not even counting any of the lesser-used ones or the missile ships that aren't known for their use of missiles but still see action (Rook, Damnation, Anathema, Curse).

I actually sort of agree with this but your logic is horrible.
Edit because :facepalm:

The only ships with 100% damage bonuses are Marauders and the Sansha line. There is a missile Marauder. Sansha ships don't use projectiles or hybrids. |

OK.... maybe you missed the part of my post where I asked about the 100-200% damage bonuses on the frigates? And besides since you brought cruisers, battlecruisers and battleships into it.... show me a single missle platform with 100% damage bonuses..... anywhere in EVE. |

Probably because it doesn't exist. Maybe you meant to include it, but it's not there.

Golem.
Edit: ok, I forgot that the Firetail and Comet get up to 100% and the Slicer 125% as well. But then so does the Hookbill, so.... |

Ok... just so all the nit-pickers and perfectionists in the game are satisfied... I'll make it more clear...
There are no missle platform FRIGATES in the game with the damage bonuses of the Cruor, Daredevil, Dramiel, Succubus...
All platforms are covered EXCEPT missles ( and yes drones). |

Where in many dev posts, and other places CCP stated (and has started with some T1 frigs) a bottom up rebalancing of all ships in the game.
Seems to me that maybe just maybe they will be looking at pirate ships as well? |

Well... we can only hope... the best missle based frigate i have found is the Hawk ( just my preference, so please dont't take that as I'm trying to state a fact or anything like that)... and lets be honest... it doesn't stand a chance against a pirate ship with 200% damage bonuses. |

Golem: Technically fits your '100%' criteria
To be fair, I posted a similar post like this some years back. The thing that people pointed out was, most missile ships have the MASSIVE TANK. Rattlesnake, Navy Scorpion can still do 1200+ DPS and have insane amounts of tank. They also have selectable damage type and range on their side.
As for frigates.... maybe it's just me.... they're frigates, who cares?

Basically.... The best thing i can do is completely retrain my toon to use guns... because if the big alliances and GMs arent using the ship... then they wont boost it. |

Some of those pirate frigates can do in excess of 500 dps... You can kill a battleship with them... how can a frigate doing 200 dps compete with that?
If you take 2 pilots, maxed skills on their platform of choice... one in a Hawk, one in a Daredevil... the Hawk doesnt stand a chance. And since SOLO PvP is mainly going to be centered around frigates... Well? Where's the balance at? |

You are literally clueless about frig PVP. And really, PVP in general. A few comments: - A 500 DPS frigate is a paper tiger with almost no range. - I've seen a battleship downed by way less than 200 DPS. I saw a Sentinel do it once. :) - I'd say the most likely outcome of two competent pilots in a Hawk/Daredevil is a stalemate. The Daredevil isn't likely to kill the Hawk and the Hawk isn't likely to pin the Daredevil down because of the web bonus. - I'd say the most likely outcome of two competent pilots in a Hawk / Enyo is a dead Enyo. :) - Solo PVP happens in whatever ship you happen to be in. I've done solo PVP in everything from noob ships to carriers.
If you're interested in solo PVP, why don't you swing by Amamake? :)

It is not off topic to point out that a hardpoint + damage bonus is an effective hardpoint and that you should be focusing on that. Are you sure that reporting my post for trolling won't cause your own break from the forums? Wasting a moderator's time when you're actually the one trolling... tsk, tsk!
