I think its dumb that a interdictor can tank a dooms day device. according to the descriptions of these things they are supposed to be a castrophic destruction. IMO nothing under a capital should survive a blast no matter what resists it has. The damage on the ddd needs a boost.

Obviously you have never been on the reciving end of a ddd. With 4 titans available, you can instakill everyone, every 15 minutes. Uhm, slightly over the top?

its a titan it should take alot of planning and work to tackle a titan. multiple interdictors, some bubble and get blown up, next batch jump in. it certainly shouldnt be a small ship like that, that tackles a titan.

How do you jump in the next batch before the titan warp out?
Doomsdays shouldn't even be in the game, imho. That can be cool in a RTS, but this is a MMO. ------------------------------------------

sure it didnt. that is what is called bailing on your alliance when things are tough.
1. Emits a gigantic antimatter field, capable of obliterating everything in its path.
Note: you will be unable to jump for 10 minutes after activating the doomsday device.
2. Righteous fury given form, this titanic ordnance rains a firestorm of destruction down upon its targets.
Note: you will be unable to jump for 10 minutes after activating the doomsday device.
3. A beam of the Lord's holy light, designed to put sinners in their proper place.
Note: you will be unable to jump for 10 minutes after activating the doomsday device.
4. Creates a gargantuan particle storm capable of efficiently wiping the field clean of enemies.
Note: you will be unable to jump for 10 minutes after activating the doomsday device.
a couple of key words in these discriptions
1.obliterating everything 2.titanic ordnance 3.sinners in their proper place 4.efficiently wiping the field clean of enemies
I guess they should change the description to maybe something like
1.obliterating some stuff, haulers and frigs especially 2.titanic ordnance able to destroy even the toughest pods. 3.or just scratch the sheilds. 4. efficiently wiping the field clean of incoming missiles.

The setup for surviving the blast is very specific and not very usefull for something else, so it's ok, that ppl who have adapted and fit accordingly survive it. Moaning otherwise is not. ___ P.S. Post with your main. Mind control and tin hats |

Usign the same POOR arguments you use. :
Invulnerability field. By your logic, shouldn it make the ship invulnerable?
Now go back to the cave.
If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough |

How does a dictor tank a doomsday? It can warp out, yes, but theres no damn way an interdictor of any form can tank one.
Maybe if you stuck a full set of Centus x- EM hards on a sabre, then MAYBE it could tank Judgement, but I doubt it.
Warping out does not constitute tanking something. ---

Lofty you're disappointing me.
-A- tanked a Flycatcher against Gjallarhorn and Sabre can tank Judgement without faction gear, too.

exactly, those dictors can tank a freaking doomsday. has anyone read about titans and doomsday devices. they are supposed to destroy everything in range. i say it shouldnt destroy capitals, but pretty much anything under a bs for sure should die no matter what tank they have, and bs not super tanked specific should also die. that is the titans purpose in the game. to use the ddd. its not to be a hauler, or to attack pos, its a blob killer. with so few titans in game, when going against a alliance using a titan every dictor in the opposing gang will be tanked for it. especially if it doesnt take faction gear.

interdictor bubbles should stop warp, not jumping. There should be a capital jump scrambler that you put on cap ships to stop jumping.

If they were 'supposed to destroy anything in range' they would do ~ damage, instead of a fixed number modified by skills. And go tell any alliance that has one that its not meant 'as a hauler', im sure they will happily give up on the 50bil/month that NPC trade routes make.

It DID take a lot of planning for -A- to tackle that titan. It was a good and fair fight. All other comments are pointless. It's absolutely fine for a dictor to survive DD if it's fitted exclusively for this reason.

Ok, im going to go out on a limb and completely agree with the op.
A DICTOR tanking a doomsday?
Granted it had faction gear. And it was an explosive DD but who gives a ****!
Dictor should never be able to tank a titan. Period. Makes tackling a titan WAY to easy.

Well..no. Titan needs support and that support should be there to clear the way for it.. I supposed you didnt see Thulsa Doom warp in, DD, and warp back out in in 30 seconds?

Thulsa Doom also went, apparently, ~600m/sec.
Seeing as how it is unwebbable, and its DDD destroys all bubbles on the field, IMO it was probably more a matter of lag/desynch/fighter bumping than the dictor tanking it.

Read the reply from seleene in the kill thread. It was the surviving dictor that did it.

I dont think you can argue the point that you have dictors "fitted specifically for tanking doomsday". Think about what your saying though. Doesnt matter about the fit on a an interdictor. The fit didnt change the job it did. To prevent warp (and in this case jump). Any interdictor can do that. In all honesty that "special uber dd dictor" could probably perform the job of ANY other normal dictor you would have in gang. In my opinion the OP has a point. Interdictors should not be able to TANK a doomsday device. No matter the fitting.
And correct me if im wrong, but I read you can tank a dictor to dd's with tech 2 gear? Anyone care to confirm?

Edited by: Xilimyth Derlin on 03/10/2007 18:49:24 I think it's also dumb that a DDD would 100% pop anything other then a capital ship (as you suggest). Though you are entitled to your opinion as I am mine.
If that were the case... with the onset of more titans being launched monthly, eventually the game would get to the point where.... Well, whomever on the forums made that joke about starting in a Dreadnought instead of a rookie ship... you see where I'm going.
You want a DDD to essentially invalidate every other non-capital ship class in that game, that's your opinion. Though I think most people, even other capital pilots, would not prefer that route.

Edited by: WildSide on 03/10/2007 18:58:06 well...even I got a setup to tank a DD in a dictor...I dont think its overpowered,it require 2-3 shield extenders and got no ab/mwd, which means its gonna get massarcred by any real sniping hac like eagle/muninn or commandship.
all u need is to have some hacs rdy to warp in to pop any suriving dictor on the battlefield. which isnt very bad idea if u allrdy got a titan in ure gang.
maybe have a couple of dd tanking ureself hacs together with the titan aswell..dunno.that doesnt have to warp out. _______________________________ Vids produced by me
