Originally by: murder one Both ships are set up with 3x Magstabs, 3x sensor boosters, 2x tracking comps and 2x tracking enhancers. Fall off isn't discussed because it will be the same per ship, given equal skills. Assume Sharpshooter 5 and BS 5 for both.
Some Hard numbers:
Megathron-
Spike- 186km optimal Iron- 165km optimal Tungsten- 144km Iridium- 124km Lead- 103km optimal
Rokh-
Spike- 279km optimal (redundant after 250km) Iron- 247.5km (lol? right at the 250km lock limit) Tungsten- 216km Iridium- 186km Lead- 154.5km
Actually don't keep saying it's great to be Caldari, please, well maybe it's great to be Caldari but trust me you are far better off now then if you had trained for a Caldari Raven.. At least you can train for a few days and get into a Rokh and actually use it.. having trained rails..
the scary thing? pretty much every weapon and ammo type you just listed will outrange all but the most highly skilled Raven torpedo pilot and outdamage cruise as well..
Maybe it's great to be Caldari as long as you trained rails.. otherwise it's better to have been a different race who had a rail battleship in their ranks..
anyone wanna buy a very highly skilled torp Raven pilot? comes with free Ravens...
I've trained my 2nd char from zero rails to tech-2 large rails, when I heard about the rokh and also did the Caldari BS IV to V in that time ( and improved jamming skills etc. )
There was time enough, but this is not the point. If CCP thinks we should all switch to caldari for long-range combat, then that's stupid. I mean, where is the drawback ? It looks like a rokh can hit everything within max locking range perfect and on top of that it can deal the same or more damage like the other ships at shorter ranges, because you can use a closer range ammo with higher damage at that range.
And why should Caldari newbies be on a higher level than other races newbies and be at a similar level like someone with 8 million in gunnery like me ?
Well, it has been all said before, when the 50% opti range bonus was announced ... -------------------------- Post with your main !!!111 |
