Ripley Riley Incorruptibles 4351	Posted - 2014.10.31 14:10:00 - [5] - Quote In Eve Online, some Amarr ships (Malediction, Vengeance, Sacrilege, Damnation) receive bonuses with missiles. I say give the Amarr an EM missile launcher. Picture a swarm launcher, but gold with Amarr-esque designs on it. It would only fire one missile at a time. It only locks onto vehicles and installations, like a swarm launcher, but it isn't as "smart" (lower turn degree), but it is faster (higher top speed and acceleration). It uses the laser damage profile: +20% shields / -20% armor My advice to you, playa...

Oh yeah, baby! Imagine this - A big gold-colored laser gun, 2 seconds to charge up until firing a constant stream of fire, with the most amazing sound effects a laser weapon could have. That moment when you mow down a proto Caldari assault suit with a militia laser rifle. Words can't describe it.

Amarr need more khanid representation as prior to the immortal mercenary initiative the khanid cyber-knights were the ground forces of the amarr and they're madly in love with the caldari and all things missile.

I'm going to quietly point out that no, that is not in fact true. The mainstay of Imperial ground power has always been- and likely always will be- the Paladin corps. That's not in any way to diminish the bravery of my Khanid brethren, but it must be stated that the Paladins are the largest and primary surface warfare force within the Empire.

It uses the laser damage profile: +20% shields / -20% armor I have often thought that the Amarr light-class AV weapon should be based on the Block Missile Launcher in the novel Templar One. Mechanics wise, I'd say somewhat similar to the swarm launcher, but that it would require that the user hold the lock rather than function in a fire-and-forget fashion. And of course, it would naturally use the laser/EM damage profile of +20%/-20% shield/armor, respectively. Buff Logis \| Nerf Goldfish
Dremel wp Shadow Company HQ Lokun Listamenn 54	Posted - 2014.10.31 16:56:00 - [9] - Quote I'd imagine light AV as pulse laser, and heavy AV as beam laser. Neither range over 150m. Beam needs a minimum range like laser rifle too.

It uses the laser damage profile: +20% shields / -20% armor This makes too much since, and it would be easy to do. Just take a regular swarm, colour it dark purple/grey-ish with bright blue lights/highlight and add the Khanid symbol (literally an upside down Amarr symbol), then adjust the damage profile and damage. If this happens, I would like a nerf to explosive missile damage OR a buff to shield vehicle hp, since most of my shield dropships already get destroyed by swarms as they are. Dust is there! I was real! Dear diary, Rattati senpai noticed me today~

I have never read any Dust fiction. Probably should. I like the idea of having to maintain a lock on the target. Interesting, very interesting.

Just have the EM missile launcher's damage be lower than a swarm launcher. That way, it will do adequate damage to shields, but very little to armor (as intended). I only mentioned the single missile design change because that would set it apart from the swarm launcher. I'd want both launcher's missiles to be different. My advice to you, playa...

Also it would be made out of some flashy expensive golden metal that is obviously just used to make it worth more money.
Lady MDK Kameira Lodge Amarr Empire 165	Posted - 2014.11.01 17:19:00 - [16] - Quote I can imagine a golden weapon but a design a bit like a plasma cannon i.e. shoulder mounted. Only works on vehicles and when aiming you look through a reticle and see a crosshair ahead of the target like you have to lead the target to hit it. You press fire while aiming and it charges but you must keep aiming at the lead crosshair until charged. Once charged (only takes a second) the cannon shoots several rapid laser blasts into the crosshair (which is either ahead of a moving vehicle on on a stationary one). In essence it locks a bit like a swarm but because its a laser and not a guided missile it is possible to miss if the vehicles course is erratic. Anyone getting annoyed by reading of the above post should consider the following. I don't care so neither should you :)
Kierkegaard Soren THE HANDS OF DEATH RUST415 531	Posted - 2014.11.02 23:27:00 - [17] - Quote Fusion lance; looks like an oversized scrambler rifle that is held two-handed like the HMG. Hold fire to build up both a charge and the heat bar. Release to fire a beam that deals continuous damage. The longer you hold the charge, the more damage per second the beam does upon release, but heat dissipation is very poor so long bursts will leave require a good judgement call. It will allow you to pulse the weapon too though, which gives it some AInfantry application too. Over heating will pretty much cripple you should you be stupid enough to mis-judge the charge time.

I would certainly prefer to see some Khanid representation in the Amarr Line up. The Block Launcher sounds very nice.
