Jim McGregor Caldari	Posted - 2006.10.20 07:28:00 - [2] Originally by: Kristoffer Originally by: Jim McGregor Im never quitting this game. But Im definently going gallente now. Why? For the Dominix thats going to eventually get nerfed when ECM does? Blasterthrons are going to be just as messed over by the HP changes as other ships. They usually rely on cap charges to win fights. Longer fights equal more cap charges which the megathron doesn't have. Thus these HP changes mean blasterthrons are going to be nerfed pretty heavily also, atleast in small scale pvp. Yeah, I know, gallente and amarr is very much affected by this change as well. Caldari gets a boost as usual. But I like guns, and the fact is that with the current game mechanics of 20 km warp disruptors, most of the fights are happening in optimal range of gallente ships. The much higher dps of the gallente ships wont have much problems killing the extra hitpoints I think. Besides, just look at the ships... they do have the best ships in almost every class, and their fighting style is much more about raw power instead of hit & run. Tux wants to kill hit & run with the wcs changes too. Expect Vaga prices to drop alot. Ive already sold mine. --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Eve Pirate

That you can't one-volley an industrial from 150km range with the HP boost? Cause for sure you must know the (1400)tempest does almost exactly the same dps as a (425)megathron, without using any cap? You are right about that (I ran the numbers in NB's excel sheet, using tech 2 and Tremor/Spike ammo), but why use a Tempest when you can use a Megathron? The megathron excels up close as well. Its better at both roles. The Tempest has a nice alpha, but who wants to play a race who's only advantage is a slighly decent alpha strike, and then sucky dps? I agree thats it can sometimes be nice to not use cap, but you never see a Tempest tank a megathron for very long despite that advantage. --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Eve Pirate
Jim McGregor Caldari	Posted - 2006.10.20 08:08:00 - [4] Originally by: Randay good, please cancel your account and quit so that we don't have to read these dumb threads. you guys obviously aren't mentally fit to play this game. You didnt even bother to put together your own argument, so I dont really see how you can flame Testy with any credibility. --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Eve Pirate

Sure, that would be great if we had a way to use it. The reality is, whether we use cap or not on our guns is irrelevent for artillery because no ship mounting it can use anything relevant that requires cap effectively. Yes, you can't really use your cap. But the difference is, that after some minutes a megathron doesn't have any cap at all and simply can't fire at all. Cap injectors? --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Eve Pirate

Unfair, Tuxford? Well, that is how it appears. I think he takes the concerns of gallente players very seriously, and now he is working on boosting missiles even more. So what have the gallente players done to get the attention the rest of us dont get? I think its a matter of his personal interest in caldari and gallente. Maybe he wants minmatar and amarr to be fleet snipers, but I feel I should have been warned before I picked minmatar. I thought it was a fast, skirmish pvp race. Just look at the faction ships for true "balance"... fleet tempest vs CNR. Its a frigging joke. Just think about it. The lame caldari navy raven being the obvious best of all the faction ships. Does anyone seriously believe its a accident that the CNR is the best? Could it have been a minmatar or amarr ship? No way. --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Eve Pirate
