I used to, but then the scouts got a CPU and PG buff. |

Actually, the basic damp gets me under the precision non-precision-enhanced Cal Scout V cal scouts. That's important- it gives me a major advantage over truly bricked Cal scouts. DozersMouse XIII wrote:lol at 4 complex shield extender on a caldari scout It's not an anti-scout scout, it's a heavy killer. I fully accept that an EWAR scout is my hard counter. That's the price I pay for the superior anti-heavy and anti-medium capability. Get off your "real scout" high horse. in reality if numbers are rounded up like most say your damp will do nothing Oh, are they rounded up? Has any real testing been done to confirm/deny this? I assumed that wasn't the case. Thanks for the info. As for your other post- I know you can kill heavies with less EHP, I also run a triple precision enhanced C/1 scout and kill heavies in that too, but that doesn't change the fact the more EHP makes it much easier, especially without REs. You can kill anything with anything, but easier is always better when you're trying to win. Easier = higher chance of cutting through several heavies in a row = more effective.
Computers always round up decimals unless told otherwise. Knowing CCP and their lousy coding, I'm guessing this is the case.

 I'm about to graduate as a comp sci major, I know what they do unless told otherwise. I was assuming it was a float, not an int, since giving percentage bonuses to integers is just asking for annoying little bugs that are a pain in the ass to diagnose... but now that you mention it, yeah, I bet CCP was sloppy like that. 
Haha, nice! For percentages, I prefer to convert floats to ints at the last calculation, that way you don't end up with 1.538549840263 reload speed.
What language did you practice, if you don't mind me asking? |

What language did you practice, if you don't mind me asking? I go to a liberal arts school, and the professors mostly have a boner for Scheme, a functional language created by MIT and really only used for teaching. Functional programming is cool, especially Haskell, but it's terribly impractical for the job market  . I've taken classes in Java, C, Python, and Ruby/ROR, as well, though, and taught myself the basics of PHP. I know a little bit of everything and have mastered nothing- such is a liberal arts school... If I could do it all again, I'd go to a university and get a more practical education, but of course I say that now.
Nice! I'm just a freshman so I haven't started yet in my field, but I taught myself C++. I'll be learning Java and some other one that I forgot next year.
Sorry for derailing your thread lol carry on o7 |
