Jake Stoker Inner.Hell 5	Posted - 2015.09.15 23:21:00 - [1] - Quote So I was flying around in my python, killing enemies that were trying to hack a friendly CRU, when the enemies call in an orbital strike. The little Incubus pilot inside my head said something like, "Oh, it's just a warbarge strike, I'll be fine", then a flux strike hits the CRU and my python plummets to the earth, completely ignoring the 960 armor I still had. Why is this a thing? Last I checked, Flux trikes only damage shields, not armor.

Megaman Trigger OSG Planetary Operations 739	Posted - 2015.09.15 23:57:00 - [5] - Quote Oh how I love herding Python's into a Flux OB with my Forge and watching them drop like stones. Pythons are bugged; once your shields are down, anything will do damage to your armour. Flux, infantry light weapons, even side arms. All do full damage vs Python armour. Purifier. First Class.

deezy dabest IMPERIAL SPECIAL FORCES GROUP Evil Syndicate Alliance. 3	Posted - 2015.09.16 06:52:00 - [7] - Quote You already know making contact with anything in a python is death half the time so why would you think a flux OB is different? ++ Remove NPC orbitals from FW -- Fix orbital timers for Eve players assisting in Planetary Conquest ++

When a Sniper round does 100% damage to a Python's armour, it's a bug. Light weapons shouldn't deal 100% vs vehicles unless they're light AV, but even AR's and Bolt Pistols deal full damage. I've done the same trick vs Incubi, only using a Flux Grenade instead of a PLC, but the Python's armour falls apart to everything. Purifier. First Class.
maybe deadcatz the nomercs 758	Posted - 2015.09.16 18:08:00 - [10] - Quote Just imagine if flux strikes disabled huds and tacnets as well. Then it would really be op. And who said the Python actually had any armour? That number is just a placeholder that is somehow affected by skills. Unless you stick on a armour plate then you won't have any armour(lol jk) 'Perhaps fate will bless us,before this world opens its maw and swallows us'-space pirate encrypted log. They all died.

Mejt0 Made in Poland... E-R-A 2	Posted - 2015.09.16 20:53:00 - [11] - Quote Because Python renders to a thin glass "wall" once you enter it. Modern society is lacking in empathy

I can confirm baby solo flux followed up with 2 SR shots and any python is toast. I almost feel dirty for doing this almost every time I play. Almost. When I look down my scope, all I see are dead people.
JIMvc2 KILL-EM-QUICK Rise Of Legion. 1	Posted - 2015.09.16 22:52:00 - [13] - Quote I once killed a Caldari merc with a minor Flux lol. It was soo funny = wtf getting kills with that lol. I like getting 75+ on tanks even on Shield tanks since flux do damage = YES Why did the white girl cross the road? To get to Starbucks. <-- My GF will kill me if I ask her that lol :)
maybe deadcatz the nomercs 769	Posted - 2015.09.17 01:05:00 - [14] - Quote Python armour is like a pushup bra. You think there's something when its nothing 'Perhaps fate will bless us,before this world opens its maw and swallows us'-space pirate encrypted log. They all died.

Why is this a thing? Last I checked, Flux trikes only damage shields, not armor. Because CCP hates ADS and they won't admit it. They hate shield in general too. Have you ever had a flux strike dropped on your 6000+ shield Gunnlogi and get hit by a swarm and lose a 1.3 mil tank in under 10 seconds? *Sagaris lover!!!* Commando <3

Larkson Crazy Eye WarRavens Imperium Eden 292	Posted - 2015.09.17 02:34:00 - [17] - Quote I don't know about OB's but I know shield vehicles were pretty bugged as a whole a few months ago. I doubt it's been fixed but I got several kills against shield tanks and LAV's with flux grenades. I'm not talking about just taking down their shields and then finishing them off, I mean literally the kill feed would say flux grenade as the cause of death.
