We know blasters are supposed to be AI. They have a short range and work well against infantry.
Rails are AV and Anti Installations and they dont do much damage to infantry. You can snipe tanks and dripshits from a mile away. Works are intended.
Missiles however work well against both AI and AV. For crying out loud I have been sniping people with missiles across the friggin map! Yes! I kill doods with my missile gunlogi across the map. This is not ok!
I am not saying nerf the missiles. I am saying reduce the range of them. Introduce a parabola system where in the path it follows, follows the path of a parabola.
Forge gun>rails - Forge gun can do everything that the large railgun can do except better and cheaper ISK/SP wise and also hit infantry really well
If you reduce range of missiles then reduce the range of SL missiles which also travel accross the map and then bend around the mountain you are using for cover |

They work like heat seeking missiles which I am totally ok with. I think them swarms mechanics need a buff.
A buff?
So an extra 20% damage buff on top of being put back to what it once was and bending around cover is not enough while being able to lock on through mountains and fired from the otherside of the map isnt enough?
The SL is like the small missile launcher, so if small missiles has a range cap so should SL and large really shouldnt get hit with the cap |

Dude. I have seen you play and you use a shield gunlogi. If you have the kind of damage resistance I have and use the same mods I do you can get anywhere between 47% to 64% shield resistance. I have survived every orbital strike thrown at me but 1. The only time the OBS got me is when both my shield resistance and shield recharge were in a cooldown state after destroying another gunlogi. It is more than enough. And the 30% buff affects armor, not shields. Armor tanks need a armor hardner but thats about it. Swarm mechanics need a buff. EOS!
I use active shield resists because the passives ones got nerfed to nothing and 3 of em may give me 35% to 40% max, active ones can give me 30% for 10sec or 90% for 8sec but with a long 30sec cooldown time
OB wise not many are called in anymore but i can always sponge one as it
SL do not need a buff, they need to stop zig zagging ther way around cover to hit me, im not too fussed that they got the buff of 20% but even the milita SL hurt shields enough |

Anywho we are discussing missille launchers here not swarm launchers. If ya wanna hijack a topic there are plenty of "Why Swarm Launchers need to be buffed" topics out there! Enjoy!
Ignore the fact that you want missiles to have a range restiction but if i ask for the SL to have the same restriction because they are missiles you go off topic yourself |
