Use a bomb. Their half the price now and ignore sig radius/speed etc (much like smartbombs) Then come and complain if u get no results. EVE history

Bombers were never meant to kill frigates.
Cruise missiles were never meant to kill frigates.
Using both of those inappropriate items to kill frigates will result in a most logical EPIC FAIL.

o really ?
In addition, stealth bombers' extremely advanced missile navigation subroutines are able to triangulate a cruise missile's trajectory in advance, resulting in a decreased factor of signature radius and making the missile more effective against smaller targets. |

Smaller targets ... smaller than what ? Smaller than the targets the cruise missiles are designed for ? That would be Battlecruisers and Cruisers, since cruise missiles are designed for Battleship-sized targets ... but we're still a long way from hitting frigates ...
And that does nothing about the flawed original point, with a speed of 0 m/s, the target should have been hit for almost full damage (minus the reduction for sig radius) ... |

Sentinel sig: 53m SB Cruise explosion radius with GMP IV: 40m
Hence, full damage on stationary Sentinel.

Bombers were designed as anti support/smallships with massive alpha (for a frigate) in mind.
Now their chief weapon is useless against frigates, doesn't do enough damage vs cruisers and can be safely ignored by bc'S/bs; they either warp out or simply tank the damage while pretty much anything else fast comes and shreds you.
Bombs are still too expensive, still effected by sensor radius (good luck popping anything but t1 frigs, providing said t1 frigs don't have high resists) and require multiple players working together dropping multiple bombs to be effective- but wait, more than 5 bombs of the same type and you start nuking your own bombs. Add in the high likelihood of SB death as you can cloak with a bomb en-route....
So, what are SB's for now? |

They were far from useless, however, they were defiantly not a common ship, solo or in gangs. 2 of these used to have the same DPS potential of a Raven (guess they still do?), so it was great with a gang of them. I also laughed my ass off when I would 1 volley someone that sat still for the 15 seconds or so it took my cruise to do 160k, especially bomber 1v1's. I'm guessing about the only thing they can do now is add DPS to a frig gang thats going for cruiser or bigger targets?
Anyway, all that said there are bigger things CCP has ****ed up, like webs and the new gates. ------ // This is by design. When a ship jumps through a gate, it clears all aggression. // - BH ******** Pew on gate, if it gets hot, jump through and Ctrl-Q. Game mechanic endorsed by CCP. |

I totally expected CCP to epic fail in this massive update. Congrats CCP you didnĘt prove me Wrong. CCP=EPIC FAILURE
Anyone who has ever flown one of these ships knows, they are very limited long range anti support.
They donĘt do enough damage to effect a battle cruiser or bigger and they donĘt have enough hps to tank a frigate at close range. Their role has always been long-range bomber. They can't interface with the cov opts cloak
The Genius at ccp has dictated that a hauler should be able to use a cov opts cloak but not a SBą Epic fail agianą
2-3x the missile damage off a sb so they are feared by bs at long range or return them to there original role of anti frigate support for caps. Other wise just delete the ship class and refund all the sp and let us re-spend it on useful skills not dead ends.

Correct. OP is full of bull****.
No he just lacks skills.
EDIT: I have full skills in bombers. All bombs, uber skills, all t2 fits.
They don't hit any different. If the frigate is moving good luck killing it, the patch changes nothing.
Shot my corp mates ishkur that was completely tanked. Volleyed his shield with one missile. Took him to 75% armor with another missile. Had I launched a full volley he would have been in structure.
So yeah, if your target is webbed you'll kill it pretty easy. |

It was possible to kill a frigate not using a speed mod at the time, for example a ceptor going 700 m/s. Still possible? Now that ceptor sigs are actually increased? --------------- ∞ TQFE

Post QR I can 2 salvo a Augoror, so... I'd say SBs have a role as anti-support. With decent refire rate skills, I can still get away unscathed if I'm quick. ___ I cannot be held responsible for the above post, because apparently,my cat has learned to type. :3 |

yeah two things
I think the OP is rather questionable.
I also think the chap who says SB's are not intended to kill frigates is full completely wrong in that opinion.
I'm gonna fly to my closest SB and when my g/f wakes up and I'm back in the game I am going to blow her up in a couple different frigates at different speeds to see for myself. |

Epic fail your ass. Limited long range anti-support? Are you nuts? If you operate long range and anti-support is needed then there is someone who can pop you in a volley.
If you want to be anti support sneek up, unleash a volley, cloak and reposition.
Covops cloak is OP all over for SBs. Sure would be nice to get in and out unnoticed, but a group of that SBs can kill any ship in game without fear of retaliation. And we know how people like it when the have no chance at all to react (hint falcon threads (and there is at least a chance to counter them)).
Feel free to collect some stupid BR pilots in your SB as they have no recloak bonus as opposed to recons and covops. (Guess I could live with cov ops cloak and no recloak bonus on the SB, but I am sure you couldnt )
