Im tired of hearing people complain about amarr there great, and its clear people just liek to complain for no reason.
Let look at the facts we will compare amarr and gallente as they are the closest and people say gallente is probably the best at pvp.
amarr 2 damage types EM/Therm Gallente 2 damage types kin/therm so both have only 2 damage types , and the biggest thing here no one seems to talk about is that in pvp anyone with any decent fitting will have SOLID RESISTANCES ACROSS THE BOARD, so damage type rarely matters.
some things that are great about amarr. better tanks then gallente better range then gallente. better tracking then gallente less cap usage on most ships then gallente. and on top of that they have very reasonable damage and good rate of fire.
Yes gallente does more damage but it alot of other drawbacks.
Basically every race has +++ and ---
No matter what you fly some one else will always have something better then you, and you can never plan for all scenarios.
so quit complaining about ships there all great.

so quit complaining about ships there all great.
First off,most people(in battleships)do have solid restists,that being given they usually use eanms and armor tanks to achieve that...therefore em is weakest. Better tanks?Not really,t2 vs t2 is close to the same...Bs wise the domi has one of the strongest. Better range?Maybe,but i dont snipe. Tracking?Kinda,with pulses yeah but beams...Its a tradeoff i guess,due to the mega getting a tracking bonus(dont say thats just 1 ship bonus,most amarr snipers have only 1 bonus anyways). NO,more cap/sec usage,once you get the shiptype to 5 its close but gellente still uses less. Ok dps etc?Yeah they do...
That is true somebody will always have something better,but amarr DO have a problem because alot of their ships are unfliable in 95% of situations. __________________________________________ Yes it is great being amarr. I am minmatar,fly amarr,use gellente drones and am in caldari space. |

Wrong first time. Gallente always have drones and they can do any damage. Amarr often dont have drones -> Maller / Zealot or just a small dronebay to defend against frigate/cruiser sized ships -> Omen, Sacrilege, Apocalypse.

Wrong the second time. Damage controls + EAN II is very common giving more resistance to EM than to any other resistance.
Quote:
less cap usage on most ships then gallente.
Wrong third time. Even with the shipskill to 5 amarrships are using more cap just to fire their weapons.

Gallente got more Damage with better rate of fire.

Amarr midslots are in need of a boost, I'll agree, and I wouldn't mind some more PG here and there, but the argument that keeps getting used is that Amarrian DPS is lower than Gallente - err, sorry? That's kind of the whole point. Amarr tank, Gallente gank, Minmatar shoeshine and Caldari zip around 20k from their opponents, PVP'ing AFK.

You people just fail at everything, whats the point on having ALL THE FREAKING SHIPS WITH THE SAME SPECS!?
ffs amarr don't have that many mids but strong tanks and lasers/HAMS now, gallente have drones and blasters, caldari shield tank and use missiles and finally minie are the jacks of all trades, so i ask what is the damn problem?
You, the people that whine and cry nerf this and that, are just stupid , why don't you use your brain and think of setups for your ships, so what if vagas are speeding f1's in eve, and gallente have great blaster boats that do alot of damage, if you web a vaga its dead, if you dry the cap out of a mega its dead, if you disrupt the tracking on amarrians they can't hit sh*t, these are just examples and all the races have strong points and drawbacks.
Shut the hell up with nerf nerf nerf, if you can't fly your ships properly switch to hello kitty and go ride the magic wand and give-me your ships instead.
And btw, amarr are a very very very good race, problem is that people are lazy and let others do the thinkin for themselves.

Dude, seriously chill! My reply was meant tongue-in-cheek
You are quite right, Amarr for instance make really great snipers.
The OP was just 'whining about whiners', which btw strikes me as a little odd but meh. I was just highlighting why *I* am not too keen on them for general pvp and why amarr have a reputation (and don't flame me I said REPUTATION) for not being great pvp ships. For my money the reason for is the lack of available midslots for ewar etc. If it's any consolation Caldari have a similar reputation for the same reasons.
Going off on one and calling people stupid just makes you look childish, yes people do tend shout nerf nerf and amarr suck, but don't don't rise to it - frankly most of it is meant in jest anyway

Common Omni tank- 80% EM, 60s for the rest : Race effected most, Amarr 90% amarr ships next to no midslots. Ewar everywhere: Race effected most, Amarr mid-range combat dead: effects Amarr and Caldari Nano-faggotry: adversely effects Amarr and Caldari Shortest range snipers: Amarr Hardest to fit Weapons: Amarr Highest Cap use: Amarr Worst tracking short-range weapons : Amarr non-bonused ships: Amarr no dmg bonuses: 50% amarr
Should I continue?

Not to flame bait, but dare i ask if you have even flown minmatar?
I'm starting to think people choose to fly amarr because they like wine with their cheese... and it fits with the backstory on their race. Minnie pilots just keep flying their trash-heaps and actually develop skills in something other than forum posting!  ____________________ Hi. I'm not an alt :) |

Great, so Amarr can eat through your shields but it wont do much damage to your armour. Gallente have a harder time against the shield (as long as they dont change ammo types of course ) but will eat the armour and structure. EM is ONLY good against shields and thats it. Amarr suctah thge most for damage.
Quote: so damage type rarely matters.
LIES!!
Quote: some things that are great about amarr. better tanks then gallente better range then gallente. better tracking then gallente less cap usage on most ships then gallente.
No it doesnt, it just has more armour points. Skillz make it better or not. Small armour repair skillz and you'll lose an amarr BS against a gallante cruiser. Range is dependant on the gun used or ammo fitted. Tracking is only slightly better, wont make too much of a difference. Less cap usage? This is the proof that you really have no idea what you are talking about. Cap usuage for Amarr is the worst of all the races. Lasers take MORe power to fit, more cap to fire on top of the fact we are supposed to be using armour repairers to try to stay alive.
Quote: Yes gallente does more damage but it alot of other drawbacks.
Like? Compared to amarr?

Originally by: Andromeda Lee better range then gallente. less cap usage on most ships then gallente.
I stopped reading there... Seriously, before you start a counter whine thread, please, atleast fly one amarr ship. I admit, the range on lasers... is normal (no way near hybrid ranges tough) But the fallof plain sucks... And less cap usage? Give me a break. Just a full rack of lasers use more cap then your gallente shipp ever will, and then we need to tank...
