Your least favourite ship class/classes - DragonRider - 07-28-2015
Thanks to @sindroms for the idea.
Follow up to my previous thread.
So.
That ship. You know that ship.
You hate flying it. You hate fighting it. Hell, you even hate looking at it.
Well, I may be over-expatiating a little bit.
What is your least favourite ship class/classes?
Do you just not like it? Or you hate it to the guts mechanical parts?
For me?
Everything larger than a Cruiser /Destroyer. Big ones are a pain to fly. Small ones are a pain to hit. Both require a NASA degree of space physics knowledge of flight to maneuver. Not to mention the tiniest of LF can make you do several barrel rolls.
Also every time a BS parks 2 meters from my tinfoil fighter, I have a feeling he will just fire 2 times and erase me of existence. Makes me really nervous when my pirate surrenders inRP

The LF and Battleship for me. The former is a highly specialized ship against a problem which we do not have, while the later is a major time and money-sink and, apart from Liberty, sees no usage. Wrapped up in huge blankets of stigma and overall snub-orientated player ridicule, the later is more hated by me myself for what it has come to represent, than the former.

I fail in VHFs

LFs. I need armour and missiles, not agility!

Fk gunboats.

Heavy fighters and very heavy fighters.
My niche is either light fighters, Speed and maneuverability with bite, or gunboats and heavier ships to overwhelm and power through.
I cannot remember any one on one in a heavy or v/heavy fighter I've ever won. Actually there was the time I accidentally won by a cannonball missile accidentally hitting a fighter just as it dropped a nuke. But I panic too quickly in a firefight in a vhf and end up thinking I'm a flying ace when all I'm doing is flying awkwardly in a circle. Bombers love picking me off with a SNAC.

Light Fighters* - They aren't real ships. They die way too easily, haven't got enough firepower to even reliably deshield a VHF and overall are bad. They can technically do their job as RP ships, scouts, interceptors or supports in larger groupfights, but why would you use it when you can do almost the same with a VHF.
Super Heavy Fighters* - You need a good bomber to counter them and are ridiculously easy to fly if you have just a bit of an idea what you're doing. Also allow for an enormous margin of error with their idiotically high reload count.
Transports* - Screw trading. Also, I expressed that a lot of times already - the fact that transports on disco have any kind of survivability is a horrible balance decision. And the fact that a dulzian BWT can easily screw over a VHF is just dumb.
Gunboats / Gunships*
Destroyers / Cruisers*
Battlecruisers*
Battleships / Dreadnoughts / Carriers*
Screw caps and everything they stand for. Boring, big, dying easier than snubs. They also require little to no aim when you can just TZ 100K away and have a free aimbot. Gg.

Actually, Carriers, not Dreads or BS. Carriers. Why? They are useless, because of in-game limitations.
I wanted to poke Gunboats and Destroyers, but I didn't do that, as my displeasement only refers to the KuGB and KuDS, because they are broken.

Everything that's not a LF, HF or VHF.
