well goes like this.
Run to my buddies house at lunch and log in with my sac pilot. we team up for gits and shiggles to head on into some .5 system just cuz it was easy and close on limited time to just blast a few small ships.
He used a 3 heavy pulse beam 2/3 arbie heavy launcher setup
I was using a 4 heavy beam 2 setup. he dives in with his close range pulse missle combo and I hit from a bit of range.
Keeping in mind we got a network setup at his place so we can pilot real time same room and team up.
Now I'm blasting away and pop pop pop goe the frigs but he keeps saying I'm missing I'm missing.
As he was in close range using heavy pulse 2's and has 10 mill accomplished in his gunner skills. EVERYTHING is at 5 except for traj analasis 4.
Target was pianted, target was webbed, was a standar frig. I stop shooting and sit back to watch his screen.
Low and behold if he could not hit that webbed/painted standard frig with his tech 2 pulses.
so after about 5 minutes of constant misses with his heavy guns and next to no damage with heavy missles and support skills trained to 3 and heavy missle 5, he decides to dock
puts on 2 medium pulse 2's on to use small weapons to small ship. thinking that'll do it.
I'm still ing belt watching this notarious standard frig and all I can do is nos it.
buddy warps back in and locks that standard frig again, webs hims, paints him, and proceeds to unload using one heavy pulse beam and 2 small sized pulse beams(the fastest tracking gun for small laser), and his 3 heavy launchers and I kid you guys not that it took him 20 minutes to bust that frig.
I was late returning to work being I was so disgusted that I had to see how long it takes.
Any idea why small guns or even medium guns on a painted webbed standard frig don't hit?
What is going on with the skills CCP and are they going to be addressed in tomorrows patch?
Are all the missle skills bonuses working?
Are the missle nerfs affecting the turrets too.
Before patch we both could waste frigs in our sacraledges if target was painted and webbed even if it was an inty.
Something seems really really fubared.
Sorry.

I dunno about that.
Keep in mind I stayed in belt and kept the frig there and in attention.
he docked and came back.
I was still closest to frig when he came back and proceeded to web him, paint him, and shoot him.
and that is not the only one that did that.
He's having all kinds of close call issues with his sacri in lvl 3 missions.
keep in mind this is a char with 30 mill SP and very skilled in piloting for missions with just over ten mill in laser gunnery alone and specifically.
he still couldn't hit that frig even tho that frig was targeting me at time he warped back in so that so called disrupter on him doesn't totally make sense.
Something really doesn't seem right on his ship and that doesn't include that he was using 3 heavy launchers on that ship and doing 10 damage with various missle types even tho that frig was stopped and painted with all new missle skills to lvl 3.
telling me disrupter affect heavy missles now too.

one thing he is finding atm.
web a structure or deadspace building and his average hits go up a LOT
nice to know that painting a structure has no affect but if you web that non moving structure your damage total go up.
CCP your loosing me man. Overall thought the overall playability of the patch was pretty good but man you realy really gotta double check ALL the skills and their bonuses to make sure they apply accordingly as something very very strange is going on.
it almost appears that if you use turrets and launchers, some the missle nerf affect is carrying over to the turrets.
Something is definitely very very screwy
QA manager. How do ya feel about Eve now?
everyone make sure to fit webs to melt them pesky high speed structures.

he was using pwnage painter as well.
and after he refit the small guns and rewarped to me he was 15 out and the frig was orbiting me.
Even at 15 out he was miss miss miss.
and since when does a WEBBED AND PAINTED standard frig not get hit with small energy pulse beams which are the fastest tracking small energy gun with multi in and gun ship braught to optimal for multi and stopped sitting still.
he couldn't even hit it when he was sitting still and the thing was WEBBED and PAINTED.
It seriously took him 20 minutes to kill that frig. I could get my beams to hit it, he was screwed.
the only real difference is I do not have any launchers on my sac. I use 4 beams 2 nos.
I too have seen great results with painters and LARGE guns but this was small and medium guns which should have ripped apart that frig by itself let alone the 3 heavy missles per volley smacking the taste out it's mouth.
Watched him run lvl 3's all night in his sacraledge and he finished many with hull damage and he was using two T2 medium rippers.
ON A SAC for lvl 3's with uber skills for it.
something is not right with it.
