Ive recently come into playing with the nanophoon its a great roaming pvp ship but can be tanked quite easily with a good bs set up with cap rigs even against 4 heavy nos prob is its usually unsuspecting bcs or smaller ships that get caught off guard ratting in low sec or battleship just not fitted for that kind of assault people r catching on so i dont see a need to nerf this ship as ive heard rumors

When you learn to fly it, then you might see why people complain a lot about it.

k thx
But in all seriousness...
Most BS with a Heavy Nos or two can deal with Nanophoons. It's just a matter of popping his drones and good cap management (ie, not panicing like a spaz and spamming your booster/rep all the time). Nanophoon will use up all his cap boosters and go home.

Doesn't matter whether you're writing an essay or not. Typing like that makes me read it in my head one word at a time in the voice of a twelve year old. It doesn't add much weight to your argument.

how exactly would a nanophoon run out of cap charges before u would? even if u have 4 heavy nos and an injector also which is unlikely, you are repping/boosting while he doesn't need to. and if u have no nos then he can run his mwd by only the 4 nos he has while draining ur charges much quicker. nanophoons have got major weakness which is why i don't think they are hugely overpowered but a nerf is in order. they should only really go above about 1500m/s if u pimp them out imo

Edited by: Franconis on 12/02/2007 12:54:21 Edited by: Franconis on 12/02/2007 12:52:29 100mn mwd takes alot of cap. He'll use those cap charges as fast as he can.
Edit: I ran some numbers, and you can't quite run 100mn mwd on 4 nos. but if your opponent also has 4 nos (nos domi), then you'll run out of cap charges before he will due to your constant need for cap, and your paced use of injections and reppers.

It depends how good the persons nano setup is Larkonis. Mematar, who posted just above you, knows what he is doing with one and your heavy NOS and drones would have done nothing to the setup he has before your BS was dead.
I don't know how to setup a nanophoon but I'm a good Raven pilot. I had a setup with 2 heavy cap boosters (with 16, 800 charges in cargo) and 3 heavy neut's fitted and mematar wasted my raven. He not only drained my cap before I drained his but he kept a mwd going aswell. I had a GOOD tank which, ironically might have been my downfall as I reckon if I had not switched my neut's off (to focus on tank) I'd have drained his cap and maybe turned the tide.
As it was I got slaughtered with 3 heavy neuts and 2 cap boosters and never killed his cap. Oh that and my cruises done about 10 damage each and he done v.nice damage with torps. 1 or 2 heavy NOS wouldn't cut it and he never even needed to drop drones (tell me if I'm wrong mem, I'd never seen a nanophoon and was mesmerised by this huge BS orbitting me at an impossible speed :))
Anyway mematar - fancy telling me how close I did actually come to draining your cap :)
For the record, I ain't on the neft nanophoon bandwagon but it was the worst 1v1 pasting I've ever had BS v BS.

I've recently come into playing with the nanophoon. It's a great roaming pvp ship but can be tanked quite easily with a good bs set up with cap rigs even against 4 heavy nos. The problem is it's usually unsuspecting bc's or smaller ships that get caught off guard ratting in low sec or battleships not fitted for that kind of assault. People are catching on so I don't see a need to nerf this ship as i've heard rumors. Edited for the post police and grammer cops q=0
Yarr! Freeze! It's grammar! bcs instead of bc's (but better write it out fully!) and capitalize the i in I've all the way trough!
Seriously though. I still think they should be nerfed. You guys should not forget it's not just about wether the enemy of the nanophoon dies. But rather, that the nanophoon itsself barely dies. (read never when flown correct, while still getting into many big fights solo. read dies much less than other battleships, even if they are more expensive faction or tech2 fitted battleships.)
Apart from that, nos isn't very affective against cap boosters. I use cap boosters in my Myrmidon for example, and their duration is almost the same as my 2 dual repper's duration. For a MWD duration is ususally around 10 seconds, so you can boost, use most of the new capacitor for your MWD and target painter or whatever, and then it's all gone before nos comes. So even though nos hurts all active ships, it doesn't hurt nearly as much when natural regen is only a portion of what the booster gives ya. In lowsec you barely see battleships that are full nos unless he's got friends, at which time the nanophoon can just leave and find other people to rape. 2x nos is common, but not enough I'd say. If the BS can tank torps with a target painter, it still doesn't change the fact that he can escape, instead of losing, because the other guy's tank holds.

a good nanophoon also requires good missile and drone skills.
