Yes! They are.
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. |

Quite contrary ole chum, I prefer the swarm launchers to have that feature. 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! |

Thanks for your input! 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! |

Amen Bro! No need to nerf anything. We need to focus on other options such as increasing/decreasing ranges or decreasing cool down times or increasing heat up times. |

Went in a match last night sniped people with my Missiel Gunlogi across the map in their spawn point from my spawn point. Geez when is CCP gonna fix this? Missiles are now the Rails in the previous builds LOL. Way too much range on them Lulz. |

Now why would you pull out your Sigaris and charge head on when you have a bunch of randoms running like headless chickens in that game? If there are random blue dots in my team I stay far away from them. They tend to attract swarms and forge guns.
If it makes you feel any better I did loose my 750K Gunlogi because I tried to help my team. I went 23-0 in that game. Jumped out just in time.
Alldin Kan wrote: I don't recall seeing you get a lot of kills either -_-
This is the reason why. I went 20 - 0 that game  .
There is no point pulling oput your expensive requirement when you have random blue dots in your team. All they wanna do is sit in the tank and get the easy kills. So many times I pulled up in front of B and none of my gunners jumped out to hack it.
Why should I even try and help my team when they dont want to help themselves?
Edit PS: People like us spend whatever time we can when we are done with college/work etc and grind SP/ISK to get the cool stuff. Why should I let any scrub piggy back of me unless its my own corp or alliance? No friggin way! If you ever wanna roll with me pull out your Gek or Broadside and send me an invite. Lets go destroy peeps that way.
Respect! |
