Edited by: Savatar Mei on 26/01/2011 11:21:54 Last night my gang (tengu, cerb, rohk, rook, hyper, merlin [dedicated tackler]) after carefully positioning our ambush waited and waited and waited, finally got some action as the enemy gang dripped through.
1st a BS, (that the tackler didnt get) that warped of to a cluster of asteroid belts, we gave chase and missed. Turned out our tackler didnt try to follow then sez he's engaged at the gate against a caracal. we all rush back to find hes over 50km from the caracal and the caracal seeing us decides to run.
turned out he didnt warp after the bs or try to tackle the caracal cos he was afraid to die.
so
please make t1 tacklers invulnerable, especially when they have a invulerable module....
edit: wrong ship mentioned

I'm hopeing that this is just a troll, because otherwise we are looking at a new low in the annals of failure for even thinking this. It's pretty bad even for a joke.
Essentially, you want tacklers to be invunerable so that you can guarantee a kill.
...And then you follow that up with an Ancedote about how your failure to act as a team resulted in no kills for you. Even excusing the rookie tackler, why did you attempt to engage an un-tackled BS, leaving your tackler's exaust hangning in the solar breeze? Either you insure he's with you on the second attempt to tackle him, or else you stay with and support him because without tackle, only pure luck and some fair amount of suckage on the part of your enemy will result in victory.
I am no Dev, but if ever I am asked about this, the answer will be No.

aw son, u got trolled!
just to elaborate,
the tackler was fleet warped, but kept breaking it. he was sending coms that he had 'engaged' many times but was merely watching...the returning fleet was gobsmacked from warping to him and landing so far away from target :-(
p.s. im also for a 'Balls' module if we could get 1. Can the dev's help with that too?

Edited by: Mike Voidstar on 26/01/2011 15:05:31 Edited by: Mike Voidstar on 26/01/2011 15:02:29 Failure on the tackler can be forgiven as he was obviously a rookie. Anyone who does a day or 2 of pvp loses that fear of dying.
Next time give him a ship for the op so he's not afraid of loosing his hard won Merlin---whoever was flying the Tengu can certainly afford a short stack of tackle frigs for the newbie.
Also, someone might want to explain to him that the only danger he's in from the BS is drones that get launched so long as he keeps moving---the Caracal had a better chance against him than the BS did.

I'm sure the other pilots next to the tengu can afford a tackling merlin. How much do they cost these days? 300k (inclusive expensive fit)?
And you forget the heavy neut on a BS, can also be a good scarecrow for most tacklers. ---------------------------------- None of yet! |

Edited by: Savatar Mei on 27/01/2011 08:26:48 i also think the 'Balls' module should have a nice graphic of an ol pair hanging off the back of ship, lets use the incursus for example. when they ship moves fast, they should be flapping magesticaly in the wind. when the ship is stoped, they should be dangling all useless like.
and the invulnerability module should enable the Sonic the Hedgehog invulnerability music.

OP... I am sorry, but I cannot take your idea seriously.
Also, LOL @ the thought of a Rifter with a pair of shiny chrome testes dangling beneath the cockpit. 
On a more serious note, no. T1 frigs are supposed to be cheap and expendable for a reason. If you gave them an "invulnerable mode" then people would be roaming around in gangs of T1 frigates that WON'T DIE no matter what tactics you bring against them. _______________________

iteration number 3: The Balls module comes in two flavours: shield, and armor.
When activated the module activates a highly mobile seige mode, brought to us by the reverse engineering of sleeper technology.
But the technology is not perfect.
After its use, it overloads causing near catastrophic damage upon the vessel (lets say 2000). In essence the balls fall off due to 'over use' and the t1 frigate becomes a limp noodle once again. To stop the Balls module being used inties, the prementioned 'snapage' effect is the same as the device being activated. Usage on Assault Frigates, due to the snapage effect after using the module, its essentially an empty module slot therefore waste.
The shield Balls module, blows up the radius of the ship so large, even a drunk capsleer could hit it.
The armor Balls module afters the inertia to a similar degree.
And obviously, both modules have a shiny 'ol pair hanging off each ship the module is on.

This... could actually be interesting. Three changes I'd make though. As a mini-siege-thing, I think that it should require fuel, of an amount that a tackle frigate could carry more than enough for one cycle only by fitting cargo expanders. Also a fairly long timer for re-use. And the ability to only be used on designated ships OR the prevention of use of all hostile abilities except tackle.
Maybe a hull Balls module too, without sig/inertia penalties, but with a severe decrease in HP, such that the ship is guaranteed to die after the cycle.

The underlying problem has been bolded and underlined. No need to change t1 tackler ships. You only need to change the pilot that isn't doing his job.
