i'm fairly new here and am starting to feel a ease in LvL3 missions in BC. I am Gallente. I find it incredible that Gallente ships below BS havent got missiles. I have now realised how clearly long range weaps have a clear advantage (i am not saying they are superior). My corp m8 has a Drake BC and i've got a Myrmidon BC. we've got equal shields and armor skills. I tell you he hurts me a lot more than i do. Why have our brass not created Gallente BC with missiles?! Do they not find it an anomaly that boats as big as BC have no missiles? Are they trying to get us all killed in battle? Is there a mole in High Command?

Drones + Blasters = OMFG DPS Missiles + Rails = Not so OMFG DPS
Gallente require a few more skills in the gunnery department than the average missile using Caldari needs in the missile department to out shine him in DPS... Plus Drone skills, but Gallente ships are no slouches.

Edited by: Ithildin on 12/01/2007 19:38:57 It works like this: back story -> in-game balance.
It DOESN'T work like this: in-game balance -> back story.
And thank the gods! I hate missile noobies.

It might seem that way when you start out, but if you specialize in turrets and learn how to use them they are far better.
For instance Guristas Extravaganza lvl4 45 mins in a Mega with rails. Btw if you get invovled in fleet engagements that is pretty much a turret thing only, because by the time your missles reach a target in fleet fights it will already be dead.
Turrets are a bit hard to start with but the pay off in the end is worth it. -----------------------------------------------

the problem might be that your drones are only doing 20% of thier potential damage.. Get BC 5, heavy drone ops 5 and drone interfacing 5. and good tanking skills and t2 tank.. You'll be able to tank anything the drake puts at you... the drake will not be able to do the same. -------------------------------------- ---"What's in your wallet?"--- "There are two kinds of respect, fear and admiration....

I wouldn't underestimate the tank a Drake can put on...

Missiles suck. Hence the decision to exclude missiles from Gallante ships was rather smart.
Thus - Caldari = Stupid. My logic is infallible. ------------------------------------ It's great being a Dev, isn't it? |

Gallante is about drones+blasters, so the range you should be at is 0-10km. And everyone else wants to fight outside that range. Thats about it. Have fun. ___ P.S. Post with your main. Mind control and tin hats |

Missiles are generally good when either just starting out or in cases when you dont want to track,but after you get enough sp to use them correctly guns will be generally better against ships of the same size. __________________________________________ Yes it is great being amarr. |

Lets put it this way: How many caldari ships do you see being used for pvp? And how many of those can actually compare to their counterparts? i.e.: a raven compared to a tempest or a eagle compared to a thorax (in regards to pvp). Bottom line is however good Caldari ships seem and are for pve and when you start they are equally bad when you have trained a decent ammount of skills and in pvp. Caldari = King of missions and thats about it with the exception of two great E-war ships.

Heh, gotta love how the kings of close range combat are cowards. Doesn't make too much sense, especially coming from the ECM race.

Accelerating particles to such a large rate that they can cause physical damage to things means your more stupid, than the advanced people who put something that goes boom on the end of a stick that has something that has already gone boom? ------

Slightly off topic, but... :D
Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered,"
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians. Everything inside them is color-coded,"
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers. They always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shuts them all up when he observes: "The French are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls and no spine. Plus the head and ass are interchangeable."
Sadly in EVE its mainly Caldari, and especially those with the 'tough guy' civire male faces, that fit these froggies... --------- ZOMG my sig was concordokkened! Link removed due to bad language on remote site. -wystler

Missiles are for caldari. They are easy to use and never miss. Its the perfect solution if you want to look like crap in space while maintaining firm control of your ship (that is, standing still). --- Eve Wiki | Eve Tribune |

They aren't jokes since they're not funny. And they're also quite against the rules, if you ever bothered to read up on them.

I've got an idea for a defense on our pos where we put a line of turrets that only shoot in one direction. They'll never think to go around.

That's right. They're logo should be a white flag too!
On the other hand I love gallente ships. They're all I fly. I'm not gallente though heh.
To the OP: train drones, they're great. All you gotta do is jump in an area, turn on hardeners & rep, let out drones, get aggro, then go watch some tv. Come back and the job's done. Gallente are lazy bastards. Like my buddy was saying last night....
