Balance

[Cawdor]

fighters aren't the best class in game. While they are nicely balanced to kill each other 1on1 no matter what kind of fighter one possesses, they are quit useless against all other ships. People however keep thinking that they are the best as they are _always_ around in superior numbers since they are the cheapest and in most peoples opinion the most fun to fight in.

Also: I don't think that two sabres without infernos could take down an equally skilled GB. That's a bit far off imo.

What tosh, Battlecruisers are indeed in many cases quite horrid, that is true. But fighters > everything? A lot of fighters can take down bc and cruisers sure enough, but only a moron BS with full primaries/secondaries can't take out a fighter swarm, fighters are useless against BS with half a dozen solaris/flak due to their weapon range.

Two VHF can kill weak gunboats, especially inferno sabre or a VHF with high power core, three good VHF's is where the gunboat starts to stand little chance, but it's three versus one, why shouldn't they?

And Cruisers < Gunboats? On what planet? How many Gunboats? Three awesome gunboat pilots, three OK gunboat pilots, or three total morons? (most gunboats are piloted by them), I've taken a cruiser into three corsair gunboats and killed them all; zomg CA > GB? No, it's just skill.

I'm sure there is more you're mistaken on, but I'll leave it there.

Joe took out my loldent alone in his guardian with mines and MR.

It has a cap IV armor and I am not that bad a GB pilot.

That is a display of epic failure from your part, sir. But surely it has nothing to do with the balancing of the mod.

In That case we took out multiple Gunboats yesterday in our fighters. And two above ok fighters can take out a GB. Even i have done that

We were 3 fighters against two Hathors and some Fighters and bombers

I don't get the point of this thread though :\

[Markam]

The point of the thread is the OP thinks Fighters and Bombers are overpowered? Looks like that to me, big ole cap ships don' stand a chance :lol:

Like hell.

He is right Mount some Solarises on an Osiris and Bombers and fighters cant even touch it

Bombers can easily destroy it without the Osiris even scratching their hull by staying outside Solaris' range... Which is 1k.

edit: come to think of it, enough fighters with MR can do that... So I respectfully disagree with Mjolnir's claim that 20 fighters can't kill a BS with the right set-up...
