Originally by: sliver 0xD i kinda find it stupid to go up against a nano cruiser with a frig. honestly i do not see your chance of surfival :)
I had good success with the following frig:
Stiletto with AB and medium shield extender t2, 1 small nos: top speed around 2800. It's possible to get it up to 4000 with low grade snakes
This setup allowed me to tackle and tank damage of: vagabond, deimos, ishtar (unless it used small t2 drones)
Usually orbiting those ships at 2 km, often times while webbed. Shields slowly going down under their fire but generally can tackle for 40-70 seconds.
The main trouble with this setup is slow speed compared to nano. Main advantage: the nano ships attacked the tackler expecting easy kill and got caught. Alternative: if the nano is attacking another ship, manually move the tackler in the orbit circle of the nanoship. When nanoship passes close by on its orbit - web it.
Of course this isn't going to work all the time, but it's pretty effective. I'd imagine that putting remote shield repper drones would greatly increase tackler frig effectiveness, maybe even switch AB for MWD

After participating in nearly 40 pages worth of nano discussions, I have come to 1 important understanding:
The "nano problem" is a battle of ideologies. It's like Democates vs Republicans, Christians vs Muslims. Both sides can come up with valid arguments from their point of view, but these points of view will never cross. No agreement is possible between these ideologies. We just have to learn to accept each others differences.
The game balance shouldn't be shifted in favor of either party. Choose stability.

I didn't mention that between the 2 ideologically separated camps, there are always a few plain crazy people. Goumindong is one of them. They tend to do more harm than good to the side they are on.
Every ideological group has their extremists, a shameful fact of life.

the sooner you people realize that talking to Goumindong is pointless, the better

There's a large war going on between the Northern alliances. If you watch either side, you'll notice that nanogangs have very little impact there. Most of the pvp happens with conventional fleet setup sniper bs and cap ships.
Nanoships always play a smaller role in PvP, while slow battleships reign supreme. Giving even more power to the battleships is just unbalanced.
If we really care about the balance between ship tactics, we should nerf sniper battleships, nerf cap ships, and boost nanoships. Because right now nanoships are much less useful.

Originally by: WeightedCompanionCube Edited by: WeightedCompanionCube on 17/04/2008 16:30:31 Any of the nano fans like to comment on if the burn-back-to-gate-and-jump tactic available exclusively to very fast ships is something they see as essential for elite level PvP or a cheap trick to get out of combat ?
Every ship with MWD uses that tactic. The nanoships just have higher chance of making it to the gate, they don't have exclusive ability. |
