What a Smartbomb would do to Azeroth
Oh and doomsday blasts are said to be able to blast the atmosphere off of entire planets. I can only imagine what one of those would do.

There's always Exodar. Of course, given it's track record, it would probably just self-destruct immediately leaving the cartoony denizens of Azeroth helpless.

Lifebloom and then you have Innervate for mana regen.
HP is probably around 8000 and mana around 5000. But then you also have around 3000 armor which reduces damage taken by 20%..
As a tauren female I'd probably be twice the size of an exotic dance tho..

Please.
As long as we can agree it was not a "debate" so much as a bunch of EVE fanboys making shit up and Star Wars enthusiasts setting them straight.
It's not particularly relevant who knows what, crossing things like this is very hard. But at least in sci-fi it's possible. In fantasy, you have all these supernatural things that work without problems, and nobody knows what would happen if WoW met Tolkien, for example. Personally, I just don't see anything but the DS's main gun as being able to do anything to Eve ships.
But I'd rather someone with a more neutral perspective figure it out.

The smartbomb would deal enough damage to kill most of the mobs weeks forwards. Causing all the players on that wow "shard" to either quit or change to another shard due to lack of mobs to grind on.
Remember, WoW is a work simulator after all. Remove the work and they'll quit. ---

Well why would we compare EVE to some crap story that is only a sentence long. The reason people compare EVE to Star Wars, or to WoW, is because both of those are established franchises with rich history and interesting characters.

Eve wins by default, because anytime WoW gets closer than 1 km to Eve it shoots off in the other direction at 15.56398 m/s and Eve being bumped off the station would not effect the outcome.

I think one thing you've missed out here is the difference in one ship hit point compaired to one person hit point, the old d6 starwars roleplay used to have a conversion whereby a ship blaster shooting a person did arround 10 times as much damage (if i remember rightly)  |

Rubbish, its stated quite clearly in next gen that no laser can penetrate the navigational shielding of a warp drive vessel, therefore even the deathstar's planet destroying super laser would bounce harmlesses off even a star fleet shuttles shielding  |

Why not simply fly into a WoW character to kill it?
A nano ship going 10 km/s could easily wipe out even the toughest of tanks in WoW, based on the fact that something like a hammer can damage you. Mass of EVE ships = millions of hammers and when you add the fact that the hammer swings quite slowly in WoW, 10 km/s should easily add incredible amounts of extra damage.
Also, I'd personally fly a Nyx into the elven cities.

Yep, that is more or less how things go. As for why the extra zeroes are there, that isn't important for vs discussions.

Want to mix rpgs, fine. Lets add Rifts universe to all this. Wow chars are SDC entities, Eve ships deal MDC damage. So 8 dmg in Eve equal 800 dmg in wow. Wow chars dealing SDC damage can't damage MDC structures even if it was 1, 10, 100, 1 bajillion SDC damage. It always equals to 0, null, nada MDC damage. Thus ....
what ever ships you take you just have to wait a wrecking shot to kill it instantly.
Eve ships always wins.

We have no way to compare what 1 point of damage is like in relation to a human being, we only know what it means as damage on one of our ships. 1 point of damage may not even chip the paintwork of an armoured and shielded vessel the size of an apartment building but you have to consider that the 1 point of damage is being done to something rather more squishy, whether it's in full epic plate or not.
Even some of our smallest, cheapest frigates fire nuclear warheads. No contest.

Me..I would use my salvaging stabber. I would tractor beam them out of the atmosphere. That is if they even survive the 1,118MPH speed on their way out. And If I wanted to have fun a would turn the tractor beam off a few miles up and let the falling damage to its job. If I wanted to rule Azeroth I would get a BS with 8 salvager's muhahah! It's more fun this way rather than clicking the Win button/mod.

Originally by: Faife ok, this is an unlikely scenario, but i figure better safe then sorry
so hypothetically, let's say you need to go 1v1 against a WOW character. what ship do you fly and how do you fit it?
let's go at it piece by piece: first, protecting yourself. this turns out to be trivially easy cause WOW characters' attack ranges go from about 2 meters to maybe 200m for ultra long range attacks. even the insanely close orbit of 500 is enough here. cake. they can't hit you
2nd, holding the target in place. again, trivial. if the average human can go maybe bout 2 meters per second, then let's say a fully maxed, uber mount sort of character in WOW maybe can go, and being generous here, 20 meters per second. ha. at that point no reason to even web them. cake.
3rd, damaging them. here's where it gets tricky. a WOW character is on average 1m¦, judging by the size of exotic dancers in EVE. that's a mighty small size. a torpedo would do a whopping 1 point of damage. clearly not the way to go. rockets aren't much better, bringing a total 2.8 for a caldari faction one, even fit on a CNR you're still maybe bringing about 3 dps here. let's see if we can do better.
one thing that's annoying is that while you're target might be moving 0.5 m/s with a good web on him, he's still moving and therefore transversal rule apply. you'd figure at some point the game would round down to 0, but eh, whatever.
option 2: the thrasher.
3 mid slots, 3 target painter 2s. your target is up to 2.1m¦. very nice. more than doubled damage. next, 8 t2 125s. resolution size: 40m¦. means that you hit a bit over 1 in 20 shots. at full speed, we're talking a hit every 3 seconds. with skills damage: 20.1 or so, 8 dps. well hm. those things have 5000ish hitpoints at level 70. can we do better?
how about a rapier/huginn then? seems a good idea for the target painting bonus. 6 mid slots, 6 t2 painters with V skills yields a target size of over 8m¦. well holy crap, that's bigger than a light drone. excellent.
now the low slots: all gyros. yes, they dont stack. so what. with maxed skills your damage just went up to x 1.91 (surgical strike, small turret, small AC spec). not too bad. 1 in every 5 shots hit, and they hit at 20 damage still (no ship bonus to smalls). since you only have 3 turrets this seems not much better ... right up until you remember you now have light drones. 5 of them. and your target is 8m¦. their resolution is 25m¦ so 1/3 hit. damage with full skills is 40ish. 40 dmg * 5 drones / 4 rof / 4 scan res = 12 dps. add it together, 20 dps or so.
problem: WOW chars have like 5000 hit points. well yeah, this will take a while. set it to orbit, go get a book. think of it like a small POS destruction, it'll take a good few minutes or so, specially for characters that do the various tricks to restore their health a few times. potions or whatever.
so yes, conclusion: if you end up in a fight against a WOW character then 1v1 your best bet is a rapier. for more ships, bring destroyers fit for killing small things (like light drones) and a rapier.
ADDENDUM: and finally, there's the wild card. the titan doomsday. not only is it size independent, but it's AOE. now you're talking. log in, warp over your favorite densely populated area, click, and count listen to the screaming in local. not available to most eve pilots, sadly
