The apoc was very popular before the pulse laser nerf. Currently the Raven is very popular but there is a missile "rebalancing" coming.
What do you think the most popular battleship will be after the the missile change?

Megathron with the ability to take 7 425mm t2's (if i'm not wrong)
or Tempest with targetpainters
whatever ever happens, the apoc will always be a good ship tbh :) i see no end, just needs a good pilot

Ermm well I doubt the tempest will ever become flavor of the month again unless they nerf other guns to oblivion. TO truely be good it requires alot of skill, more than an arma or apoc in comparison.
Right now I see alot of scorps and sniping pocs more than anything else. ~~ Hyey
I just payed 15 dollars this month just to be able to respond on the forums... stupid cancellation error.

none, would be the favorable answer for me, with missiles getting changed the bs's are getting closer to being even. ------------------------------------------ The ammatar are not the enemy, they are the smoke and mirrors of the amarr. |

I will be so happy to be able to fly interceptor again with the missile patch!
Currently the BS I fear most is tempest, it has insane per volley damage.

Yeh. I have a feeling Battleships are getting into balance for once. And all these ppl whining that they won't be able to do lvl 4 mission's in Raven anymore are plain stupid. I'm sure Raven works out fine with a bit of training of the new skills that come out soon. There has allways been solutions to do lvl 4 missions solo with every BS in the game. Or one can allways train for HAC's

Tempest, geddon, mega. And ofc the apoc since some ppl simply dont get it.
Untill they rebalance damage v defense that is, then we'll all be ****** and fly domi's or something. _______________________________________________

Apoc. Why? because once the ravens are nerfed their ability to tank is gonna make them most able to no brain through lvl 4's Mostly harmless |

Edited by: Sun Ra on 20/05/2005 09:55:10 Edited by: Sun Ra on 20/05/2005 09:51:36 ATM my fav ships are
Tempest: 1400s t2s = sex! Mega: 425 are better than most think, blaster are teh fun
Geddon: rof bonus ftw ;)
Raven: fallen from grace =[[[ still love this but, sucks for fleet still great as a 'blaster' type ship but just wayyyy to expensive to fly in pvp as u need all named/t2 stuff, i sold mine+gear for almsot 300mil more than i paid for it, go figure

APOC. Crap? You can have a serious tank and can probably fit 8 of virtually any gun in the game in the highs? More life juice than anything. No I think the APOC is a mean machine like any other tier 2 BS. :)

I don't think there will be a FotM cause everybody is complaing about all the ships. but then i love my apoc so i'll stick to that There's no such thing as madness, just diffrent degrees of normality. |

In anything over a 3v3 that tank is useless. Damage is king then, and there geddon > apoc

Apoc does just fine with damage dealing at long range fights..

Tanking wont help u much in med-large scale fights, geddons are much nicer cos the rof bonus thus it has a much higher dps

Bottom line is any current ship in a capable pilot's hands can be lethal. Some ships excel at some tasks, some others. Don't try to cram a square peg into a round hole. :)

Good to see the debate here - a sign that the balancing is going well.
Dont think that the Raven will lay down and die though - I am getting my missile skills ready for learning the new TII and other missile skills that will mean that the Raven, though no longer a `no-brainer', will still be good if you stick at the skill learning.

Despite what I earlier thought about the Raven post missile change, I think it's gonna still be a great ship with a little downsizing(in total damage dealing) to accomodate a setup that will kill smaller ships. Also if you pair up as a raven pilot with a mega-tanked\high cap ship like a Apoc you can tailor some "remote transfer turret" use that makes the duo truly astonishing in terms of their capabilities.
I think every battleship has a good role now. Even the scorp has a decent role in missions in particular, although I still scorn CCP for the EW changes because I think they were simply bad for the game from the standpoint of taking away an option that those who are outnumbered and consistently blobbed had to turn the tables with some cunning and skill.
Of course, which ship is best now is largely I think an economic question unless isk is of no concern to you. I think when you factor in costs, etc, that the Geddon is the clear winner. You'll be flying longer for less in a geddon than say a megathron, raven, Tempest, or Apoc. And you'll still be in statistically what is either the highest damage BS in the game or tied for first(w/ the mega).

APOC and GEDDON still remain my favorite ships, I now use dual beam II's beam II's or tach II's, these are still awsome ships !!
Up and coming = megathron
