Is it time to nerf cruise disruptors?

[LaWey]

My five kopeks, to confirm words of connecticut-borned guys from perspective of more casual players which use mechanics in combination with groups drilling instead of personnel skill raising, which just harder to organise.

As noob using noob swarms, i can confirm, mosq mostly inneffective for stopping caps, low fly range and low blast make it bad variant for interception, but due traking, it will CD your opponent in snub fight in most situations.

Train just some kind of versale CD, which good for interception, good for shooting rockets,can blow mines yes, but dont being fooled, while it bombers and intercepting working horce, this is simple havent enough tracking to shoot on your back, this is where difference come. Just due versality, its preferable for small-scale pirate ganks, but fleet fights and patrols can lead to another scenarios, requiring both.

Also with high-tracking CD you can do some weirds things, like shooting of CD on your back from some transports Capships CD have tendency be usable more to prevent charge of bigcaps, or prevent enemy from escaping, they have another specific due CD arcs and low agility.

Keep in mind, fleet combat could be divided on different distancies, which required different CD too. And you also need CD for every target, which in fleet fight include one for enemy capships, one for torps which flying to friendly capships, and one for this snub which trying get your or your buddy's ass.

Not fact that every CD on every of this target will be successfull, which make 70 ammo of train not so much, and 1600 mosquito range with its 520 speed not so far when enemy rockets fly from another flank, or if some far capship perfom charge.

Regarding rockets, can confirm that on practise groups nova spam effective as hell, that heavy CM can work in both ways, so you can protect your rockets from backside CDing, which make needed this dedicated person to do it, cos other would just rather waste their CD and drive attention from more important deals if they would try hard reduce every barrage. Same as you can also launch your CD before/with novas to clean their way, and reduce enemy spirit by battle beeping.

There more, seems honestly, in fleet fights most best what can do capships which already tied by combat with other ships, its just spam CM and pray, cos all other actions which they can do, only waste their energy/force them do maneures which set it in dangerous stance. Especially bad for current carriers powercore, any missiles is just checkmate for them. So even if your ammo was countered, in fleet fight you already create bothering factor, which your fleet could use to gain advantage. Without CD blowing rockets, nova spam will be just uncounterable, just spam CD to clean enemies CM/launch them on opposite course. Or you need introduce some specialised ECM ships to fill hiche of countermeausing.

Ufff, i hope its was at leas smally readable, but i feel i should point out that work well as hell for everybody. I dunno how others see disco combat, but on my looks, even while freel itself force it all to be more oriented on snubs, fleet engagement with caps-snubs composing is what real brilliant of disco, and CD important mechanic for it.
