As for the time of day, not a clue.
Batches of 6000? Shouldn't take too long for everyone to get theirs then should it? I mean, how many players are active? 3 alts each (if anyone cared enough to write three submission tickets) - anyone feel like doing the maths? I didn't even need a respec till I specced into proto swarm on Saturday - played for two hours, wrote my ticket. |

Um, well I regret two things. The first is that I had to ask for a respec, as until Saturday I was very happy with my merc. The second is that I had, for the first time since January, been really, really good about not spending SP as soon as I got it and was saving for a "rainy day" as it were. I had a couple of beers on Saturday and BANG! - specced into proto swarm and proficiency 1. Took about 9 seconds to do it. I struggled badly killing ANYTHING with my shiny new launcher (seriously, logi-LAVS are the devil) over the course of ten matches or so, (in squads, before anyone accuses me of solo-ing) and woke up feeling quite disheartened, and panicked into asking for a respec. I've been mulling it over today, and maybe I was a little rash. I'll keep plugging away with swarms for now, and see. I would never recommend you DONT spec into swarms, as what works for one may or may not work for another, but I will recommend you don't waste your ammo on the logi-LAVs. They suck. |

I put 4M SP (all my SP at the time), into a knifing class. You better believe I was pissed!
I was seriously tempted to go shotgun/nova knives/ninja hacker with Uprising - I'm sort of glad I didn't but I do get that sense of longing when watching berries having such a good time doing it! As for denying the launcher, I'm not - like I said above, I'm going to keep plugging at it!! I want it to work, I so badly want to love it - I just feel like I'm not getting anywhere. Any suggestions would be most welcome! |

Any suggestions would be most welcome! I do not have proto swarms yet but what works best for me is gaining elevation. Buy a cheap militia dropship and decent nanohives, then escort yourself up to one of those tall building on many maps. Even climbing ladders when you see them helps, but not as much as going up higher. Ummmm, yeah. Me in a dropship? Not so great. My record flight time is about 20 seconds. Not for lack of trying though, I must have crashed thirty of the buggers! BANZAIIII!! |

LOL I feel your pain. It tool me a fair ammount of ISK and patience to fly them like a hawk. Granted, a small breeze will still turn me into a pile of flaming "hawk" approaching terminal velocity in a downward spiral of doom.
lol, beautifully put.
I got into someones dropship yesterday, he went up, up, up then started to roll, roll, roll. I jumped out, activated my dampener just in time, and the ship landed on me. Dead. I called an LAV to get back to my squad, as I was on uplink duty, and the "pilot" shot me in the back, then at the bolas coming in with his ship. I got in, he crashed immediately. I respawned and got back to the action in my LAV. I then proceeded to observe him crash another four dropships in the distance. Props to that man for sheer doggedness! |

Hell, I'll bite.
All that SP you've been putting into your mercs attributes? If for whatever reason you're unhappy with the choices you've made, you can write an email to CCP before the 31st of May requesting a "skill respec" (very important to ask for a " skill respec" not a "skill refund") and at some point in the near future, all of the SP you have put into your merc up till now will be given back to you, to be spent (or "respecced") into whatever skills or weapons you feel you would like to have this time. Cue the Fox Fanfare. |
