Unless you're flying a plated maller, you have ~30-40 seconds to lock on and kill the drones (rough equivalent of 8 frigates) because past that time you're dead. Even if you manage to pull it off, by then you're so far out of hp even Thorax' small guns can finish you off. Before the plate got popular, if you were in something smaller than battleship the only hope of survival was to focus all the fire on the Thorax herself and hope she pops before you do, rendering the drones dead. With the 1600mm plate in, this is simply no longer possible hence the Thorax currently enjoying her /iddqd mode against most of ships that's supposed to be her counterparts... -.o And that is exactly why there is not hope whatsoever to defeat a tanked thorax in any close range cruiser in a world without plates. The close range thorax will die to any long range gank fitting, and kill other close range cruisers. Hence, nobody will ever fit a cruiser for close range except to fight other classes. Most cruiser cannot catch frigs, and cannot be a threat to BS without a plate, hence cruisers are ruled out of the game. Then we go play WOW and ask Blizzard for bigger helmets. Sincerly Yours, The Naughty Boy. So, the problem is in fact the plate and not the drone bay of the rax? But because people don't want to lose their extra 3k of armour, they instead want to nerf the rax. Sorry, but those who are saying that the drone bay isn't the problem, its the plate are looking to be right. The whole argument shouldn't be about the rax being uber because of its drones.. its in fact the rax is uber because of the 1600mm plate. "scotty, i need more power to warp out." "i canna give yer any more captain, the dilithium crystal was nerfed this morning.. yer just gonna have ta face it, we've been ganked."
