Great question. I would like to see some answers on this.

I only look for weapons that kill me insanely fast no matter which of my suits I am wearing or who is using them.

Aside from that I look at if a weapon over performs outside of its optimal range. The game is really about strategy and picking your weapon based on where you want to engage from plays a huge role in that. If a weapon kills you the same at 20m as it does at 60m i would definitely call it over powered.

I am very reserved in using the words overpowered as I do not know what proficiency or how many dmg mods they are running.

Alot of the OP trends are made worse by the guys that intentionally keep back millions of SP just to go prof 5 in the weapon that became slightly overpowered and then the newbies chase them because they get killed so badly by said weapon.

I was doing this hoping Amarr HAV would come out. I had 6 Million Saved up to proto it day 1, and has been saving it since December.

In the end I couldn't wait and skilled into my HAV a bit more.

Wish I had never done that.

You shall have your glorious chariot some day, brother.

Some day.

No, it's actually all of the races. If it's Minmatar, needs more slaves working on it to reduce quality and effectiveness. If it's Gallente, needs more attractive women to distract the workers during manufacturing. If it's Caldari, needs more bribe money to make their items more effective.

TechMechMeds Inner.Hell 3636	Posted - 2014.06.20 03:59:00 - [18] - Quote Nerf that heavy turn speed because mlt gear should be viable vs them. Nerf the damage as well, 5 DPS at 100 RPM. Make it so heavies have to deploy to fire. Scouts should fart repeatedly while cloaked. Tanks should be removed. Logis should die in one shot and be unable to use any weapons. We should get paid 5 mil isk per match. Injectors should be banned. Re's should replace grenades and get fused variants. Anyone who can afford aurum is a cheater and should be burnt at the stake. Academy should be a room with an invincible, 99% delay reduced, infinite uplink. Newbs spawn on it and 1 vet with a hmg gets to now them down for 15 mins repeatedly. Once completed, they gain a certificate that is stamped gjr approved and has written on it HTFU. To really drive this home and improve npe, matchmaking should always place vets vs newbs.
