Laserotaku Brotherhood of Polar Equation	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:03:00 - [1] Edited by: Laserotaku on 14/01/2007 15:59:44 and why
Jarjar Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:06:00 - [2] Thanatos, because people seem to agree that it's the best (i.e. most imbalanced). ------- My posts reflect my own personal views. I'm in this alliance for the fun, not for forum wars.
Shadowsword COLSUP Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:19:00 - [3] Edited by: Shadowsword on 14/01/2007 16:15:38 A lot of people still think the thanatos has a 10% drone damage per level, which is false. I prefer a Chimera: More frontline friendly, and it's small size is an advantage, if a small one... ------------------------------------------ Every ship has a base 60-70% resist against the primary damage type of the race that is the least able to vary it's damage types.
Laserotaku Brotherhood of Polar Equation	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:22:00 - [4] Edited by: Laserotaku on 14/01/2007 16:19:11 not many ppl rat/whatever with dread :? and arent dreads ecm immune too
The Shin	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:27:00 - [5] Dreads are only imune in seige mode.. I would go for a phoenix. + a rapier in gang (l33t gatecamp of death ftw! ^.^v) ad its tank can be rather beautiful
Ather Ialeas Amarr Karjala Inc. Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2007.01.14 16:27:00 - [6] Archon and Revelation since I already have a bunch of prerequisites for both.
Deathbarrage	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:01:00 - [7] carrier, archon to be exact, has a sick sustainable tank and I got amarr BS 5 =P
Setana Manoro Gallente The Scope	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:03:00 - [8] Originally by: Laserotaku Edited by: Laserotaku on 14/01/2007 16:19:11 not many ppl rat/whatever with dread :? and arent dreads ecm immune too Rat in Dread ? Pls ask Nyphur what happened to his when he started mining in his Moros. Dreads are strictly anti-pos and some of them do sometimes decently against BS's but only when these are stationary and have the sig of a small moon. Otherwise it's one big worthless toy with a nice cargo hold capacity. I am aiming for an Archon myself. -------------------------------------------------- Always look on the bright side of life. :)
Deathbarrage	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:09:00 - [9] btw don't get the idea that carriers are usefull in anything more then a small number of situations involving POS and large fleets or home defense
Laserotaku Brotherhood of Polar Equation	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:18:00 - [10] Edited by: Laserotaku on 14/01/2007 17:18:58 one guy was ratting with caldari carrier yesterday, he also ran mining at same time is there guide somewhere stat wise for making carrier pilot
Kazender Caldari	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:22:00 - [11] Originally by: Laserotaku one guy was ratting with caldari carrier yesterday, he also ran mining at same time that makes me die a little inside :( ------------------------------------------------ The purpose of life: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, hear the lamentation of their women.

Laserotaku Brotherhood of Polar Equation	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:28:00 - [13] dunno, he had like 200 regular drones and 15 other kind

Libertina ISD STAR Interstellar Services Department	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:34:00 - [14] No dreads or carriers are allowed to be built outside of lowsec, those you saw are still around from before that rule got in. No new carriers/dreads can be built or can jump in there and those still in highsec can not jump back once they decide to leave.

Laserotaku Brotherhood of Polar Equation	Posted - 2007.01.14 17:37:00 - [15] this carrier i was talking about
Aegis Osiris Gallente Demonic Retribution Pure.	Posted - 2007.01.14 18:21:00 - [16] If your topic means which to pick, a carrier or a dread, then I'd say generally carrier. They are generally useful in more situations then a dread, fighters/drones hit non-cap ships harder then dreads in most situations, better hauling capacity, etc etc. ________________________________________________ This thread does not exist Sig in process....
Cadiz Caldari No Quarter. C0VEN	Posted - 2007.01.14 18:24:00 - [17] I'd go for the dreadnaught. Why? Because if you're a carrier pilot, your corp mates seem to always expect you to be in that damned carrier, sitting at a POS or somewhere suitably safe and assigning them fighters while they have all the fun. It's a role best left to alts, in my opinion. ------ Quartermaster, No Quarter "There is no problem that cannot be solved by the judicious application of violence."
Mar vel Caldari H.Y.D.R.A. GoonSwarm	Posted - 2007.01.15 19:29:00 - [18] Have to agree with that. Carrier pilots get no love, except to sit and listen to action. They do, however, get the bulk of all of the kill mails due to fighters. Originally by: Cadiz I'd go for the dreadnaught. Why?

Louis DelaBlanche Cosmic Odyssey Chorus of Dawn	Posted - 2007.01.15 19:40:00 - [19] Id pick the moros. Its an awsome ship n for some reason the icon pic reminds me of a pokemon, or some such cute dinosaurlike thing.
Amarria Lightwielder N.A.G.A Corporation	Posted - 2007.01.15 19:41:00 - [20] Archon and revelation, because they are Amarr - -- Sound in EVE

It's a role best left to alts, in my opinion. Mine actually prefer me leeroying in BSs Anyway, if I had my choice between any carrier and dreadnought without actually needing to train anything it's be the phoenix. Phoenix has the most intimidating look (IMHO) is effective both in fleet and POS sieges. Tanking Survivability Calculator
Sokratesz Guardians of Hell's Gate Tactical Narcotics Team	Posted - 2007.01.15 20:07:00 - [22] Moros for killing battleships Basilisk Fitting Link
kisu tei	Posted - 2007.01.15 20:15:00 - [23] moros potentially 400% bonus to drone's sick.. just imagine. thats the equivilant of 20 heavy drones

General Xerxes GREY COUNCIL Breidablik	Posted - 2007.01.15 20:23:00 - [25] Thanatos, bacause i'm a gallente flying drone nut :) ----- Drone Fanatic Sig Coming soon...maybe...
Krulla Minmatar Queens of the Stone Age Anarchy Empire	Posted - 2007.01.15 20:32:00 - [26] Originally by: Louis DelaBlanche Id pick the moros. Its an awsome ship n for some reason the icon pic reminds me of a pokemon, or some such cute dinosaurlike thing. A cute pokTmon thing which fires antimatter slugs the size of small automobiles at close to the speed of light? I want one. Sigs are for noobs.

I've seen them used to insta-pop battleships. Tanking Survivability Calculator
Vicious Phoenix	Posted - 2007.01.15 21:37:00 - [28] Deads do one thing: Kill POSs. Carriers do tons of thing. Hauling, killing and assigning fighters come to mind. CFW (Certified Forum Warrior) I kill people ingame too.
Arktaos Minmatar The Bratwurst Burglars	Posted - 2007.01.15 22:29:00 - [29] Carrier - Archon Dread - Moros ---------------------------------
SajuurCor Free Collective The OSS	Posted - 2007.01.15 23:17:00 - [30] Thanatos - damage bonus, plus best looking by far. The Archon's tank would be sweet too though. Kinda split between Revelation and Moros, Rev's tank is far better, plus no ammo use, but Moros' drones are sweet. I'd probably go with Moros as I've only gotta train Gallente Dread for that/ :) ________________
xHalcyonx Amarr EmpiresMod	Posted - 2007.01.15 23:28:00 - [31] I have three questions. 1. Is the Nidhoggur an Armor or Shield Tanker? 2. Is the Nidhoggur better than the Chimera? 3. Should I just get an Archon or Thanatos instead of a Chimera or Nidhoggur?
D Mackiller Minmatar Aurora Empire Fuzzy Nut Attack Squirrels	Posted - 2007.01.16 00:05:00 - [32] 1: Neither, it just sits there and dies 2: Nope 3: Choose anything except Nidhoggur. Which would you prefer: Damage bonus, resist bonus, or remote rep duration bonus?
xHalcyonx Amarr EmpiresMod	Posted - 2007.01.16 03:04:00 - [33] Originally by: D Mackiller 1: Neither, it just sits there and dies 2: Nope 3: Choose anything except Nidhoggur. Which would you prefer: Damage bonus, resist bonus, or remote rep duration bonus? Thanks, I think I will go for Chimera (I don't like armor tanking all that much, tbh, it scares the **** outta me).

Which would you prefer: Damage bonus, resist bonus, or remote rep duration bonus? Thanks, I think I will go for Chimera (I don't like armor tanking all that much, tbh, it scares the **** outta me). Real MenÖ hull tank. Seriously tho. the Archon, that's just a bloody sick and wrong armor tank. Thanatos, if you're gonna frontline it, can deal some nasty damage. I'm kinda stuck in the same loop, myself. Training skills, but still can't decide which one.
Benglada Infinitus Odium Curse Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.20 08:09:00 - [35] I'd rather have an archon then the thanatos i have. But im pure gal spec so the thanatos is good :) --------------------------- Originally by: Arkanor 0.0 is the Final Frontier. Bring money and friends. Sig nerfz0r - maximum allowed siz0r is 24000 bytz0r. - Devil ([email protected]) Sig By Ortos
MacDuncan Minmatar Unknown Society	Posted - 2007.01.20 09:12:00 - [36] 1st vote for the Nidhoggur...because of the look of it... (and i already got the app. BS skills ) -- Might As well Train Another Race
The Hanz Caldari Waverly Industries	Posted - 2007.01.20 10:02:00 - [37] Moros or Archon. But I approve of any dreadnought or carrier....
ElCoCo KIA Corp KIA Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.20 10:23:00 - [38] Naglfar because "It's freaking vertical mon!" (TM) Honestly I go for what appeals to me even just estheaticaly, with very little consideration to it's usefulness or some 5% extra thingy here and there.
wierchas noobhunter	Posted - 2007.01.20 10:36:00 - [39] Originally by: Louis DelaBlanche Id pick the moros. Its an awsome ship n for some reason the icon pic reminds me of a pokemon, or some such cute dinosaurlike thing. zomg zomg POKEMONS 4TW!!!!!!!!!!!
Recalesence	Posted - 2007.01.20 12:27:00 - [40] already got the moros,thanatos,pheonix,chimera So I guess I dont have to pick?? Moros is a extremely good anti BS capital, and a properly fitted pheonix is too. triple painter, dual web, Sensor booster, 5 TP drones = 1 volley bs. 5 lows to tank with I guess if you mess up :P
