' Wrote:Now for the subject you switched to:

Bomber vs Cruiser

Yes they might be a bit too good vs them, though that's again question of who you fly against. I was testing Falcata vs OC dessie who knew how to fly and I couldn't down his shield using SN and guns, sure if he wouldn't chainfire back (primaries) and strafe/thrust from SN it would have been different. But it's not that bombers simply solo cruisers now.

The guy was a rookie, although I can't speak too much about that, as I'm a hopeless cruiser pilot msyelf. I just don't understand howto get the best out of those things...

That aside, Kress, you are right. With equal skill, a bomber should not solo a gunboat. With a large difference in skill the bomber should (with hard work) be able to kill or nearly kill it. That of course is just my opinion.

As things stand, I have seen some gunboats do crazy things to groups of bombers. I watched a well flown OC GB take down a group of three praetorians (which weren't terrible pilots, and weren't doing anything 'wrong' as such) and only lose half it's bots.

I would still like to see a reduction in damage and increase in speed (only slight) be tested. I would gladly spend a bit of time on the test server trying it out if requested.

EDIT: I'm glad we are having a constructive discussion over this.
