For all the thorax whiners, maybe EvE should only have 5 ship class. Small,medium,large,uber,superuber And only one type of weapon,shield,ammo.

A Raven could wipe out a tanked thorax in no time, A maller can kill a thorax fine and it is a cruiser class ship.

A thorax is a combat support ship, it is a T2 Frig killer providing support for BS in combat, It is not a uberkill everything ship. A skilled pilot can kill a thorax. The problem is unskilled pilots are probably getting wiped by skilled thorax pilots and are deciding to nerf it down.

A thorax has to MWD down to its target real close, by then it is sucking cap and has the radius of a planet, Heavy drones are not that fast either so you have to get within 800-2000meters. It is taking damage on its way. A smart pilot would target the drones first then the ship.

For those asking for a nerf, were you killed by a rax? what ship were you flying, fittings and your skill sheet please.

If I come up agianst a Thorax I just Nos him while blowing up his drones. Renders him pathetic. Problem is that's a specific setup.


Thats what I like about EvE if PvP was paper,rock,sizzors I would go elsewhere. EvE requires some intelligence,planning before engaging into battle. Its more of a chess game.

Lets see, Heavy NOS = dead rax
Cruise Missles = dead rax
ECM = dead rax

stay 20KM away from one. etc..

Think.
