o/ all, its just come to my attention that projectiles don't currently have a close range ammo with the most damage based on Kinetic. As currently we have Emp, Phased Plasma and Fusion doing mostly EM, Therm and Explosive but wheres our kinetic, at the moment we have Titanium Sabot as our most Kinetic ammo but thats a mid range ammo which if you do some EFTing on a target, that say for example guristas you do more damage with phased plasma which is a Thermic based ammo than the kinetic based ammo that is Titanium Sabot which to me is kinda dumb.
When pvping in a ship with projectiles as im sure pvp pilots will back me up, you carry the following Phased plasma, EMP, fusion and barrage and sometimes Hail which is again a explosive based ammo. Also all pvp pilots know that if you go up against minni ships they are normally most vulnerable against kinetic ammo due to there low base shields and kinetic resists and normally there explosive hole is filled, which is why drakes normally beat hurricanes, a new damage ammo could be useful
So what I was thinking is if ccp could think towards releasing a CLOSE range kinetic ammo, something on the lines off blunt force

Interesting fact... Guristas are weak against both Kinetic AND Thermal damage. Phased Plasma deals both. Titanium Sabot deals Explosive (primarily) and Kinetic (secondarily).
True they are but weaker more too kinetic and please learn your ammo's before commenting prim damage of titanium is kinetic but with very little damage. |

im not whining at all... and caldari doesn't always = kinetic, there just best with it, as for lasers and blasters they both have there advantages that being can swap quickly between any range instantly and blasters have the most dps. Im just saying that projectiles have mid and long range kinetic based ammo but no short range ammo when it comes to kinetic. |

After reading all the comments, i guess it would be unfair with how many damage types minny can use, also for how projectiles are at the moment. Plus the thought of kinetic and explosive only damage types would be an interesting thought considering amarr and gally. Looks like im gunna continue using phased plamsa then :) |
