Nothing wrong with Gallente. They only really suck in large-scale fleet warfare. They in fact kick some ass in small gangs and solo - and against stupid opponents (extremely common), they are in fact easily the best PvP race. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

And that will dramatically increase the difficutly of making kills. As it is now, when i see a Gallente ship, it's almost a 100% guaranteed kill.
Oh... and the buff... it still does nothing. Small blasters, which are Gallente's best tracking turrets, still have trouble to even track rat frigates in highsec belts, let alone ships like rifter, or merlin and many other player driven frigates.
Come at me bro. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

You also realize that most Gallente ships, being armor tanked, have ample midslots for a cap booster.
Honestly, permarunning is stupid as hell unless you're an interceptor or kiting. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Wat. How to prevent kiting:
- Fly away from him, when he attempts to maintain disruptor range, turn and burn at him, otherwise just warp off if hes an idiot.
- Juke his orbit by paying attention to his direction of motion and manually piloting.
- When engaging, warp to *him*, not the grid he's sitting on. If you don't have that ability, get him to chase YOU to another grid.
- If he dual props, let him reach his optimal and hit his AB. Then hit your MWD. He ain't going anywhere.
- Don't ******* MWD straight at a MWDing ship that is faster than you.
- Learn that your Falloff is pretty goddamn useful.
- etc
I get the impression the extent of your PvP knowledge comes from static "pvp" on undocks and gates. The hunt is more than half of it, and appropriately warping in is a pretty damn big factor. And if you're having cap issues with a MWD, learn to fit and fix your damn core skills. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

If you juke a kiting ship properly, it will evaporate.
If you have cap problems with a freaking MWD, you have bigger problems.
Protip: never chase a vagabond. Its exactly what he wants you to do. Make him chase you to another gird and surprise him. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Make him chase you to another gird and surprise him. I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm saying you aren't right, most of the time. We don't get to dictate our enemies, baiting Minmatar fleets is fail because they will "steal" the bait and skin out anyway. The fundamental principles of EVE combat favor Minmatar. Sure, other races can squeak a kill out here and there if the matar pilot gets sloppy but overall Minmatar will run the field.
I take it you've never fought a competent amarr pilot. They kick some serious ass by doing exactly the opposite of what minmatar do. Flying into the optimal of a properly fit amarr ship is generally suicide for a minmatar one. And they have BIG optimals.
Gallente? put it in good hands and nothing will survive the unholy DPS output. All it takes is knowing how to warp in properly.
Caldari? What's tracking? WHEEEEEEE A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Sisohiv wrote: I've never had a Minmatar pilot fly in to my Amarr Optimal. Ever. And they don't need to. Conflag Pulse is 15 km. That's Large. Why would any Minmatar pilot get inside 15km? Even by some stroke of luck one does, the refire damage is never high enough to break a shield tank before he gets out of that range.
There is ONE pulse ammo worth a damn. Its called Scorch. Use it. ABUSE it. It changes EVERYTHING in the same way Barrage does. You know, the ammo they're using to kite you with.
Quote: Both Armor tank fleets are plate based so keeping up to them long enough to break thier shield seldom happens. I have seen, in person, with my own eyes, ONE Minmatar ship tank 10 laser ships just by beating them with transversal and Invulns. He didnt kill us but we couldn't even kill one of them with 10:1 dps. Unless you can get a web on them or a Hic Bubble (have a Devoter/ devoters off grid) you don't beat them.
You saw a good pilot who knew how to kite deal with 10 bad pilots who didn't know how to deal with it. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Not really, Gallente = best form of tackle in large fleets Ares/Lachesis = win mode and I absolutely love them on my fleets. You can shield or armor tank their recons as the slot layouts make it extremely easy. Try getting an amarr ship into a shield fleet effectively.
There are exceptions to every rule - all the above are fantastic fleet ships.
I was referring to the core philosophy of blasters and plates. It works in small gangs. The more support oriented ships of every race have roles in fleets. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Please.... Hahah stop it lol
When your opponent is too dumb to know what blasters can do and doesn't avoid it, yeah, the ship with blasters simply cannot lose. You must be one of those idiots who flies into them. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

You must be one of those idiots who flies into them. Yeah sure .... Come closer to my neuting - armor cane.. No cap ? Oh sorry. Winmatar is cap free weapon. And they are awesome. Gallente have nothing special. Dps so say ? Not really...
So you seriously think a neuting Cane is going to stop a Brutix from unloading hell before capping out? There's this thing we call cap boosters - and they're hardly needed when you're pushing 1100+ DPS easily. Do you seriously think a cane can cap out a brutix in the 4-5 cycles its going to get?
If that brutix lands on top of the cane on warpin, it isn't going to lose. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Dear mr Failsword,
Shield Brutix is +300m/s faster, and has nearly 4s faster align time than an armor cane. It also has more range and dps than the Cane with Null.

Vince Snetterton wrote:If you guys are such elite PvP'ers, and don't care about losses and want to prove your points, set up a meeting somewhere in high sec.
Bring your Brutix, bring your Cane. Bring 3 of each. Post up here where and when so you can have neutral observers.
Then have a best 2 out of 3 contest. The neutral observers can see if any extra ships were used, al la neutral reppers.
Otherwise just shut up. Talk is extremely cheap in forums.
why the hell would we do that in highsec?
so we can all play with offgrid boosters and ****** mechanics? A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Vince Snetterton wrote: And guess what. PvP mechanics work just fine in high sec in 1 v 1.
The very fact you need to drop a can to start a fight removes about 75% of what PvP is. PvP is the hunt, not just the kill. It is an elaborate game of cat and mouse.
If you wanted real PvP, you'd empty out an entire nullsec system bar the combatants and have them enter at different gates. A vote for Akirei is a vote for Awesome! |

Yeah, you are all talk. Pretty clear now.
You guys were talking about comparing 2 ships' capabilities 1 v 1. Suddenly you shift it to hunting down your opponent, getting better optimal on him. Far from the point of the original intent of this.
