Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 87	Posted - 2014.02.21 23:56:00 - [1] - Quote At least it has an auto targeting system. ... What? 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff. Post this in your sig if you`re part of the 3% yelling, "DO A BARREL ROLL!"
Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 96	Posted - 2014.02.23 11:22:00 - [2] - Quote Not after the recent changes to Battlecruisers. Your fitting is nice for PvE allthough I would personaly prefer at least an Afterburner, better a MWD, on cruiser sized ships I can see it doing its job. The problem is, a Harbinger can do the exact same job but better.

Just saying, a Zealot may not have the extra high slott for the cap transfer but you can throw out a turret, end up with the exact same damage by having more range and still be able to use the cap transfer. This fit is crap and still could keep up with a phantasm damage- and utilitywise.

The tracking bonus is nothing to write home about since tracking is already no problem for cruiser sized amarr ships, especialy when you go for shieldtank. He might be the defining bonus on a Nightmare but the Phantasm does not need it and neither does the Succubus. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 96	Posted - 2014.02.23 11:46:00 - [3] - Quote That is actually not uncommon on sansha ships. I have seen multiple Nightmares doing the same with great success. You either have a drone boat as secondary ship that assignes the drones to you, gives you cap and some shield repairs or maybe you even go full support with a basilisk, making your tank virtualy indestructible for any NPC, giving you the slotts neccessary to go for maximum damage and range. Some Marauders tried this aswell but I think Bastion mode did put an end to these efforts. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 96	Posted - 2014.02.23 12:04:00 - [4] - Quote Hmm, I thougt more of some Plex and 0.0 ratting stuff instead of highsec missionrunning but even then you can go fo a noctis as secondary ship or a drone boat as well. Anyway, still think its not for L3 Missions in Highsec. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 115	Posted - 2014.02.25 18:37:00 - [5] - Quote Whats the point of having a tracking buff on a frigate? 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff. Post this in your sig if you`re part of the 3% yelling, "DO A BARREL ROLL!"
Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 115	Posted - 2014.02.25 19:39:00 - [6] - Quote No, not realy. When the tracking of small guns would be that bad you would not be able to hit anything while using a MWD or flying an Interceptor. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 115	Posted - 2014.02.25 20:05:00 - [7] - Quote Then simply dont. Allthoug it is kind of off topic but when you cant handle the transversal either slow down or dont use long range weaponry in closerange combat. I have jet to see how the AB bonus works but this can make the succubus an interesting interceptor like vessel allthough we have already some pretty good interceptors called ... well ... interceptors. But a tracking bonus might be a powerfull ability for a battleship, on a frigate you hardly face an opponent that makes this even remotely as powerfull as it is on a battleship. Matter of fact, I have jet to find a target I cant hit in a propperly fittet (i.e. no Railguns without tracking mod) frigate even without tracking bonus. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 123	Posted - 2014.02.26 20:20:00 - [8] - Quote Well, a tracking bonus for railguns or artillery actually would make sense because out of all the longrange weapons lasers have already the best tracking, hence why you "can" (already) use small beam lasers without tracking mods but "need" to use some on Arty fitts. And even then it is because of range. A Wolf has, with All V less tracking with artillery than any unbonused beam fitting. Just saying, out of all the possible boni ingame, a tracking bonus is the least useable on a frigate that already uses the best tracking "longrange" weapons. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.

Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 124	Posted - 2014.02.26 20:47:00 - [10] - Quote Thats my point, having the same bonus for all three ship does not work and sometimes you need to adjust things a little. The Sisters of Eve Ships do not have the same buffs so why should all other factions follow this (stupid) rule? (And yes, the Nestor is "not good" but still, it has a different role than the other two) The Cruor had the same problem with its bonus for energy neutralizers. No one used it because no one needed this bonus. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff. Post this in your sig if you`re part of the 3% yelling, "DO A BARREL ROLL!"
Damien White Sonnenlegion Shadow Cartel 124	Posted - 2014.02.26 21:00:00 - [11] - Quote Speaking of the Cruor, when they give the same bonus to the Bhaalgorn, the Bhaalgorn will be totaly OP. I am talking about the... "Energy Vampires operate as though your capacitor is empty" Bonus. 97% of girls would die if Justin Bieber were about to jump off a cliff.
