Cruisers now almost useless, thanks to Navy Destroyers

LOL and yet in this very thread peeps have already explained why it’s balanced.

The OP took a bad fight and lost. She thought her bling would save her, took on a fight outnumbered and got outflown and died.

There’s nothing OP about navy dessies. She couldn’t apply her DPS due to pilot skill issue, they could apply theirs and she died LOL.

What’s so crazy is you immediately take her side despite the facts in front of you LOL.

LOL I didn’t take their side LOL - in fact LOL if you bothered to read the thread i made LOL the statement that regardless of the OP LOL cruisers aren’t in a good place. LOL.

They are in an ok place. I only fly solo pretty much now and as a result am much more cautious of when you engage.

The fact is balance will always be a sliding scale, because it’s also compounded by player skill.

Most people cannot handle dying in any game and ego will not allow them to simply say dang, I got beat today.

OP is def one of them. She brought a shotgun to a sniper fight, it’s that simple.

She’s salty because her bling reps and head full of implants didn’t save her because the enemy pilot’s fought well according to their fit and executed their fight plan.

She deserves no sympathy or consideration. If you check her post history, you’d plainly see she is chock full of quafe :smiley:

But they are. Love my Nergal, kiki, Ikitursa, Leshak.

I’ve been training into them but haven’t flown one as of yet.

Nergals are broken. I killed one after dying to it the previous day in a Thrasher. He chased me through like four different systems and was gaining on me, but then I found a couple militia members and slid into them and prayed. A well-flown Thrasher (me), an RFF, a Tristan, and a Slasher took it down, but it was the Nergal who messed up by shooting my armor Thrasher (getting me to 3/4 hull) instead of the neut Tristan, who VERY LUCKILY FOR ME had neuts. That, plus my fourth neut, got him down right before my Thrasher and half of our DPS went down. My most valuable kill ever. Two years ago and I haven’t killed a Nergal since.

Damaviks can easily be Merlinned to death. I have not died to a Damavik.

Kikis are cancer. I couldn’t kill the kite variant, even with a heated AB orbit at 500m with a Polarized Hookbill.

I don’t think people quite get the insane levels of tracking that disintegrators have. Even using long range ammo. No other platform can kite at 40km then crash someone, get tackled, and still keep perfect application.

Frigates are a pain. Not been merlined to death, but have been retributioned to death

No, I mean SOLO Merlinned to death. It got two reps off :3

Is that Gix individual still horny about me in this topic 1 month down the line ?

He must have one terrific sexlife …

We were actually having a good discussion before you decided to necro :smiley:

LOL. Imagine being so mad from a vidya game you gotta sling personal insults like that :smiley:

really …

The TFI has several weaknesses to exploit:

  • low targeting range, kite can get un-targetable with 2 damps
  • no destroyer tracking bonus, apply 2 tracking disrupt scripts and it can’t hit you, arty one is enough
  • lack of midslots which often means mwd, shield, scram (obvious weakness)

Fleet Trash uses autocannons mostly, which have insane tracking on their own. Also, they have great speed and the MWD sig radius bloom thing. If attacked by a dual damp kiter, they will almost always find it easy to slingshot into scram range or out of point range, making them really hard to kill with an MWD shield scram setup, even more so if they are armor with a web! Thet are very strong. I am terrified of them even in the AB MSE Web TD Scram Hookbill, which is what I use to fight most destroyers.

All they need to do is increase the LP needed for the BPCs and boom, problem solved. The Hurricane Fleet Issue is a beast and yet it doesn’t break the meta because only a small number of groups want to lose 30 HFIs in a fight even if it wins the objective.

What problem? Cruisers still outclass navy destroyers handily.
