Godin Thekiller OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 1719	Posted - 2014.02.18 04:27:00 - [1] - Quote Missiles, although not as bad as before (where they were killing everything), have become monsters in HAV fights. most people think "ehh, that's okay, it must not be that bad since nobody uses it.". Well, nobody uses it because you have to skill for it (which I might add needs fixing, as it shouldn't take THAT much SP to get a races main weapon). If more people did in fact skill for it, they would see what I'm seeing: vastly OP turrets. To put it in perspective, one burst into a 2x hardened Maddy would almost kill it...... and that's from a STD turret, a adv. would probably kill it, and a PROTO one unless he misses a lot, which is hard unless you suck, will kill it. All of these are without a single damage mod. if there is one, you better be lucky to survive. So what to do with them? They can't go back to the old way, there's no balance there. and this way would be equally as hard. Honestly, missiles should really be missiles. I think that they should be changed into semi auto, or single fire. with that, a massive damage buff. Around a full swarm. Their projectile speed should be slightly buffed as well. Lastly, they should get a slight auto tracking, akin to the AV grenades. But to keep this way from becoming OP, nerf the mag size to 6. Lastly, I want the full auto to live on as rockets. nerf the direct damage, buff the splash radius, slightly buff the reload speed. Peace, Godin 'lights cigar' fuck with me, and I'll melt your face off. Gallente forever! Blup Blub Bloop. Translation: Die -_-

Only reason why rails are better is follow up shots (so more than 1 target or you can't aim ). Otherwise, missiles wins hands down. 'lights cigar' fuck with me, and I'll melt your face off.

A proto missile turret won't go through a double hardened Madrugar in a single salvo. Less range, less damage per clip, longer reload, and worse accuracy. In no way is a missile tank better than a rail. yea they do. I did it to one guy, and he sent me a hatemail thinking I had damage mods on, when I didn't. Stop missing, and maybe you could too, as I do it whenever I use missiles (which is only when someone pisses me off). Also, rails are OP too, and notice that I said it's only good against one target.

Only reason why rails are better is follow up shots (so more than 1 target or you can't aim ). Otherwise, missiles wins hands down. It's all about the range sure missiles are great CQC but past what 50,75 meters the spread is pretty awful I uses it so I can hit them from a distance without them suspecting anything if have 2 well placed shots I can 2 shot an armor tank hards off almost as quick as a missile volley. I don't run into very good armor tanks sure I run into people with sp into armor tanks and mountains of ISK like milkman1 and this Capital Acquisitions LLC guy that I'll just smack around. Legends the person I've seen who can hold his own verses a rail everyone else needs some kind of support. missiles aren't even supposed to be CQC. light missiles on a dessie goes out to around 30km in EVE. that's just the tiny ones. With the huge ones, good god you can reach out there. Anyways, I rather fight a rail than a missile. the rail won't insta kill me (it'll be close though), but at least I get a chance to fight back.

All of these are without a single damage mod. if there is one, you better be lucky to survive. Unless you're talking about maxed skills and/or damage mods being included, this simply isn't true. I run Standard Missile Turrets on several HAV fittings (mostly Gunnlogis, but a couple of Sicas), and against an UNHARDENED Madrugar, I've landed every single missile on target and only barely killed the target when it had taken Forge Gun fire before I started firing. It had to have been been double-hardened to absorb the couple of Forge hits I saw with such minor damage, then when the hardeners dropped, I ripped into it, and only finished the job with my last missile, WITHOUT A SINGLE SHOT MISSING. I didn't have any relevant skills maxed to give the full potential passive damage bonus, and I wasn't running damage mods, but the tank can only have been running one set of plates at most. Also, Missile Turrets have one serious drawback that ISN'T the SP cost, and that's reloading - the on-screen display shows them reloading one round at a time, like Shotguns, and doing so makes sense for what missiles are, but until the full reload time has completed, EVEN IF YOU ONLY NEEDED ONE MORE MISSILE, you can't fire. With the longest reload time of any turret, and the inability to interrupt a reload and fire a partial volley, or to quickly reload when you only needed one or two missiles to finish something off or force an infantry/LAV retreat, the Large Missile turret needs a BUFF before it gets another nerf. I do it without assistance. and there is no passive damage bonuses anymore. I didn't say SP cost was a drawback, and like that HAV will kill you before you reload. Like I said, STD missiles ALMOST killed it. If I had adv. missiles at the time, I would have. (still killed the target though). Anyways, this ain't a nerf, and it surely doesn't need a buff. this is just another redo. This turns them from monsters to the things they are trying to represent: long range bombarders..

Godin Thekiller OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 1719	Posted - 2014.02.18 05:02:00 - [8] - Quote Vulpes Dolosus wrote: Missiles need a buff. Not a damage buff per se, but there are some aspects of their mechanics that could use improving: Shotgun style loading: loading one missile at a time, being able to interrupt reload and fire all that have been reloaded. This will allow them the pick off injured tanks after their initial volley or keep shields from regenning while they reload and also make them a bit more viable against infantry (definitely needed). Longer range/No fall off/ Tiny bit better accuracy: 250m range > 300-350m with no falloff damage at all (exploding at longest distance), fix horrendous accuracy during full auto (a little is understandable, but it's absurd Gëê50m, a typical engagement range without being completely on top of the enemy tank). An EM damage variant (20% to shield, -20% to armor, possibly lesser damage and larger flux grenade-like splash): Currently, missiles are almost completely walled by shield tanks (bar a double damage modded X-T). Having to spend literally 60x the SP cost of the other two turrets just for basic missiles, there needs to be a reason to invest so much. Giving an EM damage missile will bridge the gap and make missiles more than worth skilling into. However, EM missiles will be balanced because they'll essentially be to armor tanks what current missiles are to shield tanks (and not to mention that every bloody rail Gunnlogi armor tanks with 2-3 damage mods as well). This will restrain missile tanks that are loners, making them almost useless to tanks of their opposite type. However, it can make them dangerous forces when used with others. (I go more into my ideas in this thread here.) Currently, missiles are awful. They're only good for ganking an armor tank and that's about it (oh, and ATs alone barely kill Somas and Sicas unhardened, and usually require a second volley), and for such a hefty SP cost, they need something more. You're missing, and no, they don't need a buff. 'lights cigar' fuck with me, and I'll melt your face off. Gallente forever! Blup Blub Bloop. Translation: Die -_-

Not with no damage mods on, which was your ridiculous statement. Either way, I don't care what people who don't play the game think. You see, there is a constant evolution of tank fits and tactics in PC. The evolutions that occur there allow seasoned tankers to make very accurate judgements about the efficacy of various fittings and turrets. Also, the fact that you quit because infantry could blap you with an LAV if you were not paying attention shows how bad you are, and no one should give your opinion any weight. Enjoy your stories about how awesome you are. no, the guy had no damage mods. he had 3. *****. hardeners. At the JLAVs killing me, you know that you can just put them in the seat, right?

I don't squad because stomping is for cowards and pussies. I solo tank, and I use every turret. Since you quit, I seriously doubt you have more experience than I do with missiles, and you certainly don't have near my level of experience using missiles in PC. Just because I can take down a shield rail in a PC with a missile tank doesn't mean that missile tanks are better, but that the guy in the rail tank the bed. It also completely disproves your theory about a STD turret almost killing a double hardened Madrugar. So, how about you go see your brother, get your PS3 back, and then you can put your ISK where your mouth is. Or just actually quit and stop posting about a game you no longer play.

Yes, I've used 1.7 missiles, and yes, I have more expirence in them in you (got a good 50-100 hours in them by now, with a good 300-400 hours into 1.7).

You only call it OP for the one thing it's made to do, to quickly destroy an armor-tanked opponent at close range. What's next, shotguns are OP? HMGs are OP? NK are OP? because those all perform very well in their exact niche situation. I like how people are saying this is a nerf still, when this is just a readjustment. Alsso, why you using a explosive weapon on a Caldari HAV, which has a shield tank? Lastly, shield hardeners are broken, as stated and explained here. oh, and if we were supposed do die fast, then what's the ******* point of tanking? We aren't, and that's a silly notion to put out.
