I know this may have been disucssed already, but i am wondering why tech 2 missiles come in all damage types but tech 2 projectiles are limited.
One of the things i liked about projectiles was the ability to determine damage type, but with tech 2 that is not possible. Is there a reason for this?

explosive and kinetic are the "racial" damage for minmatar, that's the main reason why there is no variation in the T2 ammo for projectiles.
Don't forget hail does the same amount of pure damage(15 in total for small) then the other T2 equivalent ammo.

The mixed damage type of turret ammo is once again something "versatile" that isnt really useful...I wouldnt mind being able to hit for 100% kinetic damage for example. =)
But its a relatively minor issue and I think that missiles and turrets should be pretty different. Its adds to the flavor of Eve.

If you think barrage is in any way, shape, or form 'the shaft', then I have to wonder about what you consider not 'the shaft'. Ammo with 1000 base damage?

so overall it doesnt have much effect on the projectile turrets vs. missiles in damage done?

Now that you mention this, I suddenly realize all T2 missiles should be removed except for Kinetic, its the caldari racial dmg right.

Oh please, this is the most retarded thing I've ever seen on these forums, and these forums are pretty freaking bad.

caldari missile boats have a kinetic specific damage bonus, so what's the problem?(ok Raven doesn't)

I think that change is in the works.
They're also going to limit Amarr to Em, Gallente to Therm, and Minmatar to target painting.

Well thats the point, Raven is the problem, all other caldari missile spammers are balanced if not slightly underpowered (nighthawk).

Indeed, try convincing the missile chavs of that though  .
Although I'd prefer that there wouldn't be damage-type specific damage bonuses, right now within eve I don't see how this could be solved without changing missiles radically(eg. making different missiles racial with 2 damage types etc. etc.)
Potential solution to the current Recon cloak and cyno bug... oh well Rabble rabble ra...(meh) |
