          they didnt do it with gunnery skills so why should they do it with missile skills? Missiles are **** easy to use atm, i certainly hope they get a hefty swat of the nerfbat.
  I absolutely despise ravens in PVP (i couldnt care less what u do with em in PVE). n00bs flying around in ravens, wtfpwning highly skilled pilots just cos the missiles are so damn unbalanced and easy to train for. Its annoying, to say the least

  Please, Missiles are not unbalanced Frankly all you need to beat a Raven or any other missile ship atm is to have some distance on it. Thats why they are totally useless in pvp except for close up engaugemanets is that before the missiles can get there in a proper fight the Raven should be dead. 
  If you get hit by a volly off torps from a Raven in PVP you did something wrong
  as a matter of fact if people would quit crying about how this ship or that ship was to overpowered ccp might have time to add content rather than listen to countless whiners and spend hours nerfing things that werent broke to begin with.

  A highly skillpointed player might perhaps get pwned by a Raven. A higly skilled player most certainly will not. Aside from the occasional scrambler, Raven pilots are extremely predictable.
  And if your statement that all these Raven pilots are n00bs is correct, they should even be easier to lured into a trap and blasted to pieces.
  Anyway, stop complaining about the missiles already. CCP got the point and there's a missile patch coming out. Let's see from there shall we?

          Before the market nerf that can only truly be referred to as "cataclysmically proportioned" as to my business in eve, they gave us the skills in advance, and they did nothing, such is possible now, as it might give some people that depend on ravens and other missile boats for day to day operations the ability to not spend a day, week, or even possibly month inconvenienced. 
  Since it is a wholly Meta game issue(I am pretty sure all out blueprints won't just magically change over night) we should be given oppurtunity to prepare, skill point wise. 
  And Yes, I am a missile *****. And No, I don't think missiles are broken for PvP purposes. (purely for reference)

  you obriously dont remember when turrets where good, sigh.. befor turrets used to hit small targets so it was possible to do what a raven does now in all turret ships. 
  Seems they nerfed the hell out of experienced players then gave noobs the raven.

          er... so your logic for missile skills not being released before the patch is that gun skills wernt... when there wernt any gun skills released at all, either before or after the patch. right. that makes sense... i guess...  you could have trained up your gun skills in advance though, as they already existed. people just chose not to because they could wtfpwn things without bothering. if missiles skills arnt released for pre-training, it will basically screw over caldari and minmater, and make amarr even better, for a while until people train missile skills. And of course, thats fair, because amarr are so weak atm  ...

          oh ffs here they all come with their "missiles are ok etc etc u must be a n00b to die to a raven etc etc" comments.
  Tobiaz, i have heard of u and i know ur a PVPer but please. U try holding a raven in an interceptor for any length of time without dieing. Im sure uve tried. It aint easy, its damn ****in hard and ur one mistake away from getting blown up. Torps arent a problem, its cruise. Any n00b with 1.5mil SPs can sit in a raven with hvy nos + cruise and bbq the hell out of anything smaller than a BS
  But then u put it up against a BS. A Raven at close range will take the **** out of a blasterthron. That just aint right either and needs to be fixed
  Yes the raven blows at fleet combat and long range fighting but u put it 20km away from anything and its by far the easiest and most devestating ship about atm. EVERYONE i know and fly with curses when they bump into a raven, even more so than they did when they bumped into a geddon. Geddons are quite easily countered, Ravens just BBQ the hell out of anything at close range, skilled pilot or not

          With any luck the missile changes will do the following:-
  Make missiles better at range. Make large missiles/torps better against large targets.
  Reduce missiles over all power up close BELOW that of Blasters Reduce large missiles/torps power against small targets.
  And the skills will simply be needed to take advantage of their benifits against large targets at range.
  With any luck......
  But untill the changes come out on the test server speculation is pointless, and CCP is unlikely to decide on skill release times based on the requests in this thread. I have supped the milk of human kindness, and discovered i am lactose intolerant |

  Bloody right. Theres this one little thing that completely fecks up anything that uses missiles.. its called "TIME TO TARGET". If you exploit it you can use 3 turreted ganka bs's to take on 10 ravens if the fight is at 40 km +.
  Basicly missile's suck unless your right up the other guys ass, in which case you'll do more dammage with blasters with AM (and yes you do I've used both of them) .. 
  Sure give missiles more skill training, but then the time to target issue, the fact they can be smart bombed and defendered all need addressing.
  If you turn missiles into turrets then defenders need removing from the game and smart bombs shouldnt destroy them.

          I flew for quite soem tim enothing else then a crow and never ever died by tacklin a raven mayb eonce or so ? 
  it can be done , not easily but if you do some thinkin yeh will be allright  
  ..and again interceptors shouldnt be able to tackle down a bs on their own at any given time without any risk .
  Also many peeps say there is no skills involved flying a Raven , well is there in flying a gunboat with 2458 damage mods ? _____________

            Originally by: Zandramus Please, Missiles are not unbalanced Frankly all you need to beat a Raven or any other missile ship atm is to have some distance on it. Thats why they are totally useless in pvp except for close up engaugemanets is that before the missiles can get there in a proper fight the Raven should be dead. 
  If you get hit by a volly off torps from a Raven in PVP you did something wrong
  as a matter of fact if people would quit crying about how this ship or that ship was to overpowered ccp might have time to add content rather than listen to countless whiners and spend hours nerfing things that werent broke to begin with.
  kthxbye

  Thank you.
  Far as I'm concerned these "highly skilled players getting wtfpwned by noobs in Ravens" probably aren't as skilled as you think. In fact they are probably fools. Quit your whining.
