Originally by: Anarkia Evangel But they have one of the best damage mods, so it works out. They would be way to powerful if they could do anymore damage types
that is not true, blasters and AC on most ships far out damage pulse on an amarr ship
an example is electron blasters on a thorax, 220mm AC on a rupture do >40% the dmg of Focused medium pulse laser 2s
overall apart from the gedden amarr T1 ships suck a lot compaired to gal and minm
this is a lie btw (probably from damage sheet that Weirda question in another thread) and probably responsible for a lot of these ridiculuous boost amarr thread:
Weirda's Gank Omen (not max skill) ~400dps  Weirda's Tank Maller (not with max skill) ~235dps 
neither of those are 'bad' for t1 cruiser, and both are with focused t2 pulse.
Weirda's 'standard' Rupture ~200dps 
Please post you setup and will mimic it and get actual numbers. it was (belive) nyphur's original damage sheet that gave a lot of this whining kick start... would prefer to see one from naughty boy... not to say that nyphur was trying to make something wrong - but could not get maller/omen number that low or matching whatever tried on TQ, except for perhaps a setup that would not compare at all to the Thorax or Rupture setup that was posting those number. IE - there must have been a mistake or a modifier that was missed.
Weirda dps numbers are straight from TQ, right now. Of course that is RAW dps.
Weirda is specialized in minmatar and amarr... fly all t2 ships with t2 weapon spec up to battlecruiser (coming soon)... and pretty sure that NO bc can come close to touching the Absolution for DPS...

Edited by: Weirda on 01/06/2006 20:49:53 oh - and don't touch damage type.
so many people don't understand the circle of damage/resist/racial enemy ship balance. it is damned near perfect (balance wise) and support backstory/etc... you really 'screw the pooch' if you start mucking with racial damage types/etc...
will have to write a paper sometimes. it actually gorgeous (in simplicity) the way that it all work and had gain so much respect for dev/desinger/concept when initially figured it out (pretty much right after start). 
if you have understanding of these thing (behind just the number) it really give you edge over all player that don't... and pretty much anyone could figure it out in 2 min if they bothered rather then demanding for everything to be 'different' then it is or the 'same' as everything else.  __ Weirda Assault Ship need 4th Bonus and More! |

maybe u should check the eve balance history and u would notice that CCP started mucking with the racial damage types a long time ago and they prolly still dont know what they are really doing.
what do you even mean by this statement? please back it up... 
if anything they have been pushing it more back toward racial damage type over the last year... which is what have everyone crying about their t2 resist so much...  __ Weirda Assault Ship need 4th Bonus and More! |

Originally by: TheMoog The resists were put to counter your enemy's main damage, not the weapons developped to hit the lowest enemy's resist.
And THIS makes you use other races' ships and weapons against your racial enemy. That really blows. And it's this which I am criticizing. I don't care if you like that concept. I don't.
moog - actually the answer that weirda was going to type...
forsch - what you suggesting is to make everything the same and have no diversity... how very amarr of you... 
and yes - this might not be what you WANT, but making everything same would be the only way to ACHIEVE it, so be careful what you ask for or it may be exactly what you don't want.  __ Weirda Assault Ship need 4th Bonus and More! |

400dps on Omen, how? Care to explain the setup?
Astarte can't come close to touching the absolution DPS?
omen setup is about as obvious as they come.
focused med pulse II, conflagration, 3xdmg mod, assault launcher, drones...
forgot about Astarte 
Absolution is arguably best though.  __ Weirda Assault Ship need 4th Bonus and More! |
