Yes, as the title said, i understand that the devs have talked in the live devblog about a boost patch, and that the amarrians who apparently feel that their ships absolutely suck (eventhough the vets ridicule those who say that amarr sucks) you guys might want to tone it down a bit.
about half of the first page posts are about amarr in some way shape or form. and eventhough some of them might have merit, a very high percentage of them are completely made of bollox talk from people with either a) not good enough skills to fly them properly, or b) people with dirty flour in the bag (ungenuine intentions) desiring a new generation of amarr pwnmobiles.
so give it a rest, amarr ships do kick ass, some of them needs looking at (the recons and so on) but i do facepalm a bit when i see an abaddon whine thread or similar.
absolution/damnation/geddon/abaddon/malediction etc. are frigging ownage.
and amarr has crystals not needing to reload ammo which is _quite_ relevant (which is part of the reason for the _"cap problems", and the damage is good too, and some of these "cap problems" stemming from a nerf back in time when amarr lasers wtfbbq'd everything.
and i'm sure you don't want the amarr ships to be nerfed straight off the bat due to them becoming overpowered by the devs taking everything you say for truth without seing how it all fits together in actual gameplay and fleet/pvp scenarios.
so just relax and give it a rest with the ships that are allready quite fine. and furthermore stop with the _we amarr says nerf minmatarr_ threads which has more roleplay in them than truth, and focus on the ships that seriously needs some looking at instead.
so wipe your tears away and instead take a look at movies like genesis by kil2 which are awesome displays on how to use amarr in pvp. i think i speak for quite a few when i say that, that would make us very happy to not see a flood of amarr threads full of bollox.

Thats pretty true, too bad pretty much all our other ships are sub par or in the too-sucky-to-even-look-at category. I think thats more the issue. That ccp broke our race, then duct taped a few ships and now the oppinion is that amarr are fine. They are not, its broken and its still not fixed. And yeah, I'll keep the threads going because Ive got a right as a customer. ---------------------------------------------

Khanid and Sansha (hell, even blood raiders arent too horrid) ships I love to fly with a passion. Sure they might not be the best of the best in every category, but they fit their intended roles rather well. ________

I have said in the past certain amarr ships need to be boosted,i believe that certain amarrian ships are subpar and lack a niche...But even with that i dont think a widespread amarrian change would be a good idea.
Basically,you are correct in your thinking,however those amarrian pvp videos are using only our best ships. Signature removed. Contains no Eve content. Navigator ([email protected]) |

amarr have some okayish ships like: harbinger, crusader, geddon, baddon and khanid-line.
mayor complaints are more about the no use sub bc ships and the apoc. and even if passive plated gedodns/baddons are nice in gang the problem is that a mwd which is more or less mandatory is just not rly cool with amarr ships due to cap and/or fitting.
while a mwd on a blaster mega is needed to get into blaster range you can use it to mwd out of bubbles too. on blaster/ac ships you want to have the mwd to get into your perfect range and it also allows you to move through bubbles or run if needed.
much guys say you should not fly amarr like you fly gallente, but if gallente are as good as amarr on plated setups (nearly) and far better with rep+mwd setups and the fact that a mwd is more or less needed in 0.0 leaves amarr as the king of midrange combat (which does not rly exist), the king of long range tracking (which you dont need), the king of close range optimal (again a thing you dont rly need).
the abaddon is awesome as long as you have a station close to you..... t1 cruisers are worthless (except arbi). hacs are average.
i would say amarr has 2 decent subcapitals which are the damnation (with a very good tank and nice gangmods) and the guardian ( cap and rep transfer is very good ).
compare that with other races ships and their use in todays combat: eagle - superior anti support sniper vaga - awesome hvy tackler and decent roaming ship ishtar - well dronepower nanoable or tankable hurricane - a dream of a tier 2 bc myrmidon - even with "only" 5 med drones a hell of a ship with awesome tank and nice gank crow - dam nice tackler mega-domi-hyp: gallente bs lineup is just nice recons: nice ships throughout all races. dictors: sabre is still the best. hics: broadsword, onyx.....
i left some ships out cause i dont know them rly so i did not want to judge them.
amarr would be fine if the could use their midrange pro more, but atm there is combat below 20km or above 160km which arent rly ranges for amarr to shine.
lets hope for boostpatch.....

im a "veteran" since 2003 with pretty much maxed out skills in amarr and yes amarr suck in alot more then they are any good at. i am also just about maxed out on gallente and they are nowhere near the suckage of amarr.
i do fly a few amarr ships still but i actually preferr the other races ships for the performance, amarr i mainly fly for the looks nowadays.

When the lowest dps race out dps' the highest/second highest dps race in guns alown I think there is a problem - and thats before you factor in resistances.
Amarr are the gank and tank race, our very few mid slots give us limited combat versitility - if we are the gank-tank race then we should be able to do that in spades, at this point, we are not. I am hoping for a change. ----

I guess that's because vets=PvP and others=PvE (at least most of them). Or maybe low SP/high SP. Who knows, but there certainly is a reason for it. The devs would be well advised to sort that reason out before applying any changes..

I like Amarr. I think that the use of cap instead of ammo has some real advantages, and those advantages are offset by the limited types of damage Amarr can do. having said that, I do have one complaint: Amarr really does not have a good sniper ship. Lasers have far less falloff than do hybrids or arties, and their optimals are about the same if not a little less. Because of this an Amarr pilot has to absolutely gimp his ship just to get to the MINIMUM of what might be considered sniping rangs (150km+).
So how about this - remove the cap capacity bonus from the apoc and give it an optimal bonus instead? Then maybe we Amarr pilots could actually fit decent sniper setups and compete with the rest of the long range shooters.

Ahhhhhhhhh yes, good day. Oh and there is nothing wrong with amarr.
Edit: Anyone here EVER look forward to running into a pilgrim? Unless you are in a passive fit drake, nearly everyone will need support to beat that ship. I'm sorry but a pilgrim full of cap charges is a scary thing to behold. Amarr have their ships, and they have their bad ships. I don't see other pilots whining about stuff. It must be the bandwagon thing to do because I'm sure I could come up with a crap load of complaints for Minmatar if I tried REALLY hard. (Longest training time of all the races? Ships are expensive as hell? Ships require many "extra" items to reach their usefulness. A total lack of defined weapons systems in most of the ships. Which is a plus in my book but look; I made up a complaint!)
Play the game and have fun all ready. I enjoy the rush of flying around my 125 million isk hyena, I don't complain over and over again that speed tanking takes up 2 weeks worth of missioning to get a t2 frigate properly fit. Every race has it's drawbacks, right now it's pretty balanced. GET OVER IT.
Maller is terrible,cruisers arent made to tank unless their t2...As for the pilgrim,their way too easy to kill with a harbinger/absolution/zealot hell i even beat one in a stabber once. Signature removed. Contains no Eve content. Navigator ([email protected]) |

Yeah and Ive seen a retribution kill a brutix in a vid. It doesnt say anything about the balance and capabilities of the two ships. ---------------------------------------------
