CCP Ytterbium wrote:Considering I was the one breaking this ship in the first place, the least I can do is to post here what we think of pirate ships at the moment. My pov.
Bhaal : perfectly fine.
Ashimmu : low EHP, low speed, low agility, average dps, bad capacitor, lolwut drone bay, not-that-good pwg, is only useful when brawling within 8km-12km (which is not the range of medium pulse/beam lasers). Buff a bit everything, give it another lowslot.
Cruor : like the ashimmu but even worst. On everything.
Nightmare : it's a good T1 battleship. Nothing else. To shine a bit, it needs a -15% large energy turret bonus instead of the 10% and more PWG. Oh, and buffer-fit shield battleships suck (the only exception being the rokh with a tier3 buffer and the shield bonus, and somewhat the suicide herocat where the tank doesnt matter) because there is no XLSE.
Phantasm : the spikey crap. Isn't that the slowest cruiser in the game ? And had some serious capacitor problems. And "tracking lazers+shield" is not really a role when you consider the other pirate lineups.
Succubus : even worst than a T1 fregate (yes, I'm looking at you, dreadful tormentor).
Rattlesnake : gimmick ship. Just good for AFK-farmers. Bad because a bonus is wasted (large launchers are bad, only 4 slots on it, and that speed missile bonus is already available on standard caldari ships). Remove the missile speed bonus, give it a DPS bonus (rof or dmg) and a 5th launcher slot.
Gila : 4th missile slot and more CPU please, otherwise it's a good one.
Worm : it's pretty. Everything else is bad (sup tristan'). It's lacking some pwg, CPU, missile slots, good bonus, and love.
Vindicator : fine.
Vigilant : more EHP please.
Daredevil : fine.
Machariel : -1 highslot, lower the speed and the agility. Problem solved.
Cynabal : lower the agility and a bit of EHP. Oh, and the scan res. And the drone bay.
Dramiel : The only one I don't fly, 'can't speak for it.
And where are the EOM (not sure of the name) ? The amarr ships with hybrid weapons.
There is no pirate ships with missiles as a main weapon. Mordus rokhs with 7/8 torp launchers, anyone ? |

goldiiee wrote:So you want to turn it into a maelstrom? With 150% of the EHP, more drones, more speed, more agility, more scanres, more range, more DPS, more alpha, and enough slots to armor tank it ? Why not.
And you can fit a smartbomb/neut on a mael, you know.
DHB WildCat wrote:Nightmare - its fine, best ship in game if you are man enough to brawl. The nightmare is fine if you have tengu links, crystals, improved blue pills and a 6b fit (have you seen Burn Eden ? I saw some good footages in it. Oh w---)
Once the offgrid ganglinks will get removed... Not better than the average XASB mael.
On a side note, I would like to see a duel between you and Fon. A forum war, I mean. :3 |

You're wrong. |

Jenn aSide wrote:Do you know the definition of the word "almost"? Maybe not, so let me rephrase. The bpcs come from exploration and null sec missions. And do you know the definition of "almost exclusively" ? Because a ****-ton of BPCs are coming from this LP store.
Unless you're going to explain me that "almost exclusively" means in fact "well, only about half of it, anyway I WAS RIGHT AND I KNEW IT AND YOU'RE WRONG AH AH AH".
This way.

Barrogh Habalu wrote:Marauders and NM have 8 effective turrets, the rest ended up here correctly IIRC. Dunno about NOmen though  Counter-nitpicking : the nightmare, like all the marauders but the poor golem, has 10 effective turrets...
4 turrets => 4
Double turrets => 8
+25% damage => 8x1.25 = 10.
A bit more for the vargur.
You're welcome. o/ |

You may not remember but CCP said the same thing about supers (and still, titans has been nerfed 4 times).
Cearain wrote:Actually Eve has proven that cost is a huge factor. All of the navy battleships are better than the vanilla battleships. Yet people still fly the vanilla ones. Why? Cost. Scorpions. And the tiers3 BS are very competitive.
And it seems you have missed the memo. Powerblocks are definitively not flying these navy BS, not at all. No no no.
Fleet Phoon : not yet, blame ProgodLegend.
Fleet Tempest : it's a CFC fleet called "tech fleet".
Navy scorp : Shadow Cartel tried them a bit but BS missiles are too bad.
Navy Raven : ^see above.
Dominix : PL and Init both have a faction domi fleet.
Mega : no faction fleet mega for now, true.
Imperial arma : one of the most flown ship by heavy pirate gangs.
Imperial apoc : standard HBC doctrine as some smaller alliances.
Next time, think a bit before posting thanks. |
