Capships re-examined

[DarthCloakedGuy]

I'll be short, blunt and to the point.
If you can not avoid Battleship turrets in a fighter then you fail at piloting,
I suggest you have someone train you in a fighter.
Your shortcomings aren't everyone else's problems or reason enough
to nerf Battleships even further.

The matter isn't avoiding battleship turrets.

You can avoid battleship turrets 'til the cows come home, but until the battleship decides to leave you alone, which never happens, since then he'd have to leave the system for four hours, you're stuck with only two options, those being run and leave the system for four hours or stay and fight a little while longer.

There is nothing the fighter can do to not lose the engagement. Nothing.

[edit]

And never have I had a battleship not engage me just because I'm in a fighter. They always engage. Always.

[edit 2]

And no amount of training will ever allow a fighter to kill a dreadnaught. It is simply impossible with capship recharge rates set so high.

[edit 3]

Now that I think about it, it's technically impossible TO enage a capship in a fighter, because no matter what you pound on it with, you can't reduce their shields down to 50%, which is when it constitutes an engagement.
