I was flying an Eclipse Heavy Bomber, with ASARUS (Shield SNAC) and a Antimatter Cannon (Normal SNAC), I remember the days when 1 ASARUS hit would deshield a gunboat. But not anymore. I remember the days when the ASARUS (Codename weapon) would deshield a cruiser with 2 hits. and for a battlecruiser it was 4 hits. A battleship was 5 - 6 hits. I remember those days but not anymore.
But now with the SNAC, it feels like it takes alot more energy, and slower regen but does alot less damage and range. It's totally not worth using anymore, and the Scrocher Bomb and Neutralizer takes way too much damage and does not have the range to be effective unless you are flying in a straight line within 500m of a battleship. To the point a battleship can insta you because you are flying so close because of the range of the bombs is pathetic. Let's not forget with the bombs to be effective you need to mount two scrocher to do any hull damage.
And nova's, I love these but CM's are very effective now to the point CM's and Flak's makes nova's near impossible to hit, even if you are using the 4.2k range of a nova. It's very difficult for an expierence bomber pilot to use a bomber effectively again, no wonder why people are abusing the chainguns with hellfire rockets to kill snubs.
