GFLTorque	Posted - 2005.12.22 03:13:00 - [1] This is only meant for the seasoned PVP'ers that have used a Tempest and have 2+ years in the game including possible time in beta. Those that have trained Minnie BS V, Large Proj V,Tracking V, ROF V, GUNN. V, Advanced Weapons Upgrade V, Motion Prediction V, Sharpshooter V, Surgical Strike V, Trajectory Anlysis V, Large Projectile Arty Spec V. I feel your pain. The Tempest will now offically make a good door stop as it is broken as a pvp ship. I will not humor you nublars that reply "omg it will work, etc.. etc.. etc.." as you are obviously to stoopid to deserve a reply as you cant see the depth of the pit its now currently in.

Quoted as it is true. Some reajustment needs to be done to most hacs too as they dont have the dmg output need with all the tanking/stacking changes. Some ships have more of an issue than others because of the stats on it too. I do hope some one listens but alas as we all know it will be 3 to 6 months before ccp listens.
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2005.12.22 03:44:00 - [6] You do the same DPS as a Cruise Launcher Raven with Artys, the Tempest is still very powerful with Autocannons. I don't see the problem here. ------ Campaign to remove shield hardener effects, they suck!!

I don't see the problem here. Jim when they make a 6 mid slot Tempest I'll agree with you. Not to mention the Raven starting with 500 more Shield HPS and about 400 Armour HPS. But this is not about comparing a Raven and a Tempest. Its about the Tempest as a viable PVP ship in the hands of skilled ppl vs skilled pilots of other ships.

GFLTorque	Posted - 2005.12.22 04:19:00 - [9] Edited by: GFLTorque on 22/12/2005 04:19:09 Originally by: Jim Raynor well your ship is a lot faster than a raven, takes less damage than a raven (small sig radius), and locks stuff way faster than a raven all the ships have their own advantages obviously DPS wise though, a tempest and raven are fairly evenly matched, except missiles have flight time and artys have crappy tracking, but whatever Well the speed issue is moot, the sig radius is not significant, and the lock time I agree with you. Definite advantage to the TEmpest. However even if your right and a CMissle Raven equals the damage of a Tempest, you and i both know a Raven WAY out tanks it with the additonal mid slot and additonal starting hps in armour and Shield. But I am concerned about the tempest period. Not it vs merely 1 bs or 1 setup. I've messed around with it a lot now on sisi and it truely is in bad shape.
Grimpak	Posted - 2005.12.22 04:41:00 - [10] Originally by: GFLTorque Jim when they make a 6 mid slot Tempest I'll agree with you. uhmm.... fleet tempest? ------------------- Celestial Horizon: we go zerg on you
Ante	Posted - 2005.12.22 05:23:00 - [11] Originally by: Grimpak Originally by: GFLTorque Jim when they make a 6 mid slot Tempest I'll agree with you. uhmm.... fleet tempest? Coz we can all afford those .. ? No offense but there's no point in talking about a ship that expensive as a viable solution. What exactly is wrong with the Tempest?
Wrayeth	Posted - 2005.12.22 05:28:00 - [12] Originally by: GFLTorque Jim when they make a 6 mid slot Tempest I'll agree with you. QFT. If they remove a lowslot and give the tempest one more midslot, it'd be much better. -Wrayeth Go away.
Einheriar Ulrich	Posted - 2005.12.22 05:38:00 - [13] Edited by: Einheriar Ulrich on 22/12/2005 05:40:19 Torque, you know i love the Tempest......But right know I only use it for sniping, and npcing, would never take it into closecombat....and i have also maxed my Min arty skills. If i should go into closecombat, i would use a phoon, easier, more fun, and way cheaper, and deadly, on closerange, whereas the tempest would suffer way to much on the same short distances. We all know it, those who have flown this ship, since we learned bs skill level 2, Tempest can shield tank or armor tank, but not good, so whats its force, well i can hit from a very long range instant, and do high damage, thats about it. ohh forgot due to its good speed, its also a good npc ship, since it rarely get caught when i PvP now, its in hacs or the phoon, scorp will do also, not the raven, you see i trained and trained in gunnery that i forgot to train most of the new missile skills, so im a bit on a setback there What to do, well an ekstra midslot or lowslot would help alot, i can live with the fact that because of the design it has, low structure and low armor, give it more speed then. But seriusly, the tempest has been good the last 6 months, now its time for it to crawl into a non pvp role for a bit, it has done it before and will do it again
Embattle	Posted - 2005.12.22 06:44:00 - [14] All ships have problems, certainly judging by the number of threads here any way. ----------- Trolling - Ban - All I got was this silly Hat.
Keta Min	Posted - 2005.12.22 07:17:00 - [15] it is a bit weak compared to other ships in head-on combat.. but it can still pull off some nasty stunts and surprise people that think it can't tank and will be easily pwned. all in all it can/will work
FoRGyL	Posted - 2005.12.22 07:29:00 - [16] Totally signed about Artys, they are totally down. -out- ********************************************************* Pay or don't!
Simon Illian	Posted - 2005.12.22 07:31:00 - [17] yes give a 6th mid slot to the tempest, and plz change arty doesn't now, give us missile slot ... we need a bonus for misisle, raven have missile, maybe the tempest can have hte same bonus ? humthe tempest look ugly ? how can we have the same models as the raven ? tadaaaaa each ship is the same now, fine ?

Henka	Posted - 2005.12.22 07:50:00 - [20] yeah, well i got killed by a tempy 3 days ago... and i was in a dual repper dominix with Ograaas....
Araviel	Posted - 2005.12.22 07:52:00 - [21] you seem to think that fitting a good tank is the only way to do 1vs1's, i dont agree... try and think out of the box a little, like put some EW on that baby. ---------- signature under construction

I agree with you here, the topic should be R.I.P ArtyTempy tbh. Well a gang of 4 and up will still be nasty for most but the individual punch is gone...not degraded just gone In Pve I can assume some peps even think(or has) it have gotten better but that has to do with the ship and rmr not artys. -out- ********************************************************* Pay or don't!

Well now you narrowed it down allitle to much. As not to many went along with a 1 vs 1 in a artytempy to begin with. But you could roam with it, choose fights, smaller engagements and so on. (poof) But I'm glad that you still like it then atleast someone does And as I said in larger fleets it will still be viable. -out- ********************************************************* Pay or don't!
Testy Mctest	Posted - 2005.12.22 10:02:00 - [27] It's dead in comparison to other Battleships. Not because of it's stats (which are still the worst of all battleships, though - moreso since the 25% hp boost put us even farther behind as we got the least buff of all), but because Projectile weapons suck. Fix projectiles, and we'll see the Tempest shining again. Loading sig, please wait...
Leeach	Posted - 2005.12.22 10:36:00 - [28] The tempest where never a easy ship to PvP in but the tracking speed of the large guns 1200-1400mm limits it to extreme close range and auto cannons or sniping at ultra long range with the big guns. I have no problem with these two setup but i think they need to give the tempest a 20-30m/s speed boost and a bit more shield or armor. I fly the Mach now and on that ships the projectile guns far outperform anything else i know of.
Sarmaul	Posted - 2005.12.22 10:42:00 - [29] Edited by: Sarmaul on 22/12/2005 10:43:03 Originally by: Leeach I fly the Mach now and on that ships the projectile guns far outperform anything else i know of. all the mach does to projectiles that a tempest doesn't is give them a tracking boost. tbh it's always surprised me why the race with the fastest ships doesn't have guns that can support that speed - having the worst tracking guns is a bit of a kick in the teeth when the lower damage and optimal range is taken into consideration. edit: and torque, do you generally use artillery or autocannons? ------------- Please make Minmatar overpowered, CCP
Sun Ra	Posted - 2005.12.22 11:07:00 - [30] Its not that bad.... on sisi the only ship to beat me in a 1v1 was a cap sucking domi, which took about 8mins to kill me 800mm need boasting for sure as they are pointless atm We're coming for you
