Lyria Skydancer Amarr Home 0f Bored Occultists	Posted - 2008.11.22 03:31:00 - [1] Originally by: Gartel Reiman the rockets are excellent for getting rid of drones on you, Excuse me but have you tried popping drones in full speed high orbit with the new rockets? Malediction was ok back when rockets did full damage to everything it hit. Rockets needed a slight dps boost just like torps got imo even back then. After patch the got nerfed along with all other missiles eventhough there was no real need for it. Rockets are now absolute crap. The worst weapon system there is and ccp is really going to have to look at it. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise

It's probably the best Interceptor in the game. Just MHO based on regular use of it. Just don't ask it to be the perfect anti-drone ship. It's still an outstanding tackler and outruns almost anything. Who cares about perma run when acting as a tackler? You're also derailing from the fact that rockets are the crappiest weapon system in game atm and has gotten worse after patch. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise

At last someone who backs me up, even though it is someone who has a vested interest in a rocket boost. I have to say that your videos were one inspiring factor for making me want to try the Mal out, Lyria. Rockets still work for heads up inty work when both are slowed down. I'm just annoyed that its main purpose, wich is tackling, wich includes killing drones at high speed orbits with rockets, has been gimped to uselessness. ^^ glad you enjoy the vids. Cya in space. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise

But yeah, didnt read OP but I blow lots of Maledictions up in my Crow. I've never lost a malediction against a crow heads up. Ever. Pre patch atleast. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise
Lyria Skydancer Amarr Home 0f Bored Occultists	Posted - 2008.11.22 08:54:00 - [7] Originally by: Hirana Yoshida I had a Malediction vs. Malediction fight and my rockets were doing less than half damage (13-14/hit). Took forever (ie. more than 90secs). The Malediction took a huge hit from the missile changes, before the rocket damage was high enough to justify the short range and you could 'tank' incoming fire while on approach. I am now considering using a target painter instead of web for anti-ceptor work, which unfortunately will make it a lot harder if the enemy has a web. Either that or go guns ... maybe blasters even.... ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise
Lyria Skydancer Amarr Home 0f Bored Occultists	Posted - 2008.11.22 11:50:00 - [8] Originally by: Suitonia The only use for the mal now really is to be a long range tackler. If you want to use blasters then you'll get killed by the next Blasteranis that comes along, or a pulsader. So you agree on rocket bonus now being totally bogus and/or rockets being a totally worthless weapon system. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise
Lyria Skydancer Amarr Home 0f Bored Occultists	Posted - 2008.11.22 11:52:00 - [9] Originally by: Felix Dzerzhinsky the Saider is just better at doing what this Mal wants to do - which is where the argument ended between the two. just throwing that out there. . . Not in all situations. When you're facing stiletto or crows for example that use webs, this male will tackle and kill the target while the sader might lose its target because it has no web. It depends a bit. ----------------------------------------- [Video] The Cruise
