i have no issue with glass rails. just out maneuver them and blap them to death with ease.
i only have an issue when theres five rail tanks grouped up close together and theres nothing i can do to change it.

Tankers like you Spkr, are what have ruined tanking.

LOL Ok

Every single thread people like you have made, complaining about tanks and tankers in ambush, and how you can't do anything against half a team of tanks? That's not me.

So no, I haven't ruined tanking.

I used to split dom and skirmish, and now I just play dom. I don't do ambush, and if I do, it's while waiting for someone to finish a game. I don't play ambush all day every day.

I also don't always use a blaster. I have access to the PRO tier of all 3 large turrets. I also use them all, with rail being my best, despite how often it misfires.

I haven't ruined tanking. We've adapted to every nerf you and CCP have thrown at us. Yet you continue to complain, unable to wrap your heads around teamwork and proper placement. I notice corps from Russia, Brazil, Poland, and the French have zero problems destroying tanks. Why? Because they just get it done without complaining. You English-speaking mouthbreathers however, you couldn't destroy a base HP shield lav with a forge gun if it didn't have a driver in it.

Tanks are the way they are now specifically because of tankers like you Spkr that constantly whined about how bad tanks were and then after they got a buff whined about how OP rails were; and you in particular were among those that whined the hardest (though I don't recall you whining about the rails but we all know why that is). Hell there hasn't been a build that you haven't whined about getting solo'd by militia swarms; even after infantry damage mods got nerfed and militia swarms got nerfed to 2 volleys in a clip, you made a thread whining about getting solo'd by them.

So yes, sh!tty tankers like you have ruined tanking.

In his defense, tanking was awful prior to 1.5.

Not really sure why but it seemed better in 1.6. Maybe it's just the rose-tint on my goggles.

They're the reason the railgun range was cut in half. They're also generally terrible, either camping a mountaintop, or only coming out of the redline when an enemy tank is nearby. This in my opinion is the worst way to tank. It's ultra-conservative (in a non political way), and only serves to make those that keep their tank outside their own redline mad all the time. I haven't built up over a year of experience in tanks just so some scrub can poo all over that experience.

Oh, and CCP, when are you going to fix the railgun misfire glitch?

(wait, I know the answer to that, for Legion, not Dust)

(in before "lol sparker u use milisha" and "lol sparky you hide in the redline too")

This was the single greatest post I've ever seen.

"I don't want a buff for tanks, i just want them to do more damage and be harder to kill."

CCP is too busy figuring out how to deal with Sony's legal team pursuing them for breach of contract related to exclusivity on PS and the announcement of EVE: Legion.

I'm surprised you're still asking for support in an unsupported game.

Buy a PS4 and don't look back.

Reading comprehension would serve you well. You know, trying to "connect the dots." Let me help you: If someone (me) states a buff isn't needed, and specifies a better advantage for leveling up is needed, wouldn't that mean the maxed out level is the current level, and the other tiers are a lesser version of the current?

Spoiler: Yes, yes it would.

Look, what he indirectly addressed was how some Large Turrets are perfectly effective against infantry, and none of them should be.

Killing infantry in any way should be the realm of Small Turrets, while Large ones are capable of killing infantry only be sheer dumb luck or incredible skill in aiming.

That being said: the Large Blaster needs to fire projectiles like the other Large turrets, and not be hitscan as it is right now.

You should need to fit Small Turrets and have them manned if you want to defend yourself from infantry.

I am a tanker, by the way, so don't even try and make that argument you were going to make (you know who you are).

Just remove the Railgun... It was a broken idea that never worked.

The fact that railgun technology is purely Caldari based tech in DUST is also just stupid. Specially when missiles are in game.


Railgun tech was Gallente's... The Moros the Gallente Dreadnought Uses Railguns.

Where the Phoenix the Caldari Dreadnought uses Missiles.

Caldari are a missile tech based Race.

Railguns and their main use and implementation on the battlefield has always been the gallente.

It wasn't until CCP added t3 Battleships and the Caldari's Rokh... Over half a decade later that Caldari really ever entered a competent railgun user. "Other then the Eagle HAC that has been nerfed into oblivion.

Hybrid Technology has always been Gallente.

Fail post or trolling?

Hybrid Technology was used by both the Gallente and the Caldari. Gallente preferring Blasters/Drones and Caldari preferring Railguns/Missiles. The reason for that, if you read up on your Eve history, is because the Gallente and Caldari have a similar origin story. It only makes sense that they'd use the same technology.

Caldari Ships have always either given a bonus to Hybrid Optimal Range or some form of Missile bonus. They are totally 100% capable of using hybrids (including blasters) and have always been that way, they just prefer range over tracking/damage.

From the Evelopedia: "Railgun optimized ships can be found across new eden, with the Caldari Merlin, Cormorant, Moa, Ferox, and Rokh serving as prime examples of ships designed for ranged combat.

Railguns are primarily used as a Sniping weapon, especially on the Rokh Battleship which serves as the Caldari's premier long range weapons platform. The Megathron is often equipped with Railguns (with these ships colloquially referred to as Sniperthrons), giving the vessel a potent long range combat capability in fleet engagements."

Wondering how I should approach this one...

Why don't you try adapting and wrapping your head around 'teamwork and proper placement'?
