Order and Core BS Powercores

[NonSequitor]

Okie dokie, moving right along...

IMO, the Geb would be good as a battlecruiser. The Geb wasn't exactly in the OP, but for what it's worth, I agree with Epo's statement.

The Osiris can indeed fire 5 primaries forward - however, I think you have to have the ship at a slight angle in order to pull that off. I wouldn't be opposed to having that 5th primary's firing arc restricted to cover the aft sector of the vessel.

To Lythrilux: I am attempting to address both RP and balance issues. The Marduk would still reign supreme, but the Order and the Core would be able to even the odds a bit with more robust BSes. Is this shallow? If it is, what would be your remedy?

Well I don't think the ossie needs changes. Mako as I said could use a med core since its the size of a med bs. That's pretty much all I can think of that wouldn't upset the balance too much. Giving ossies med core would probably make it op.

Personally I want to pursue getting Core a Heavy BS instead, to serve as our solution to bigger problems rather than buffing the Mako to compensate, but I guess that's another matter altogether.

Just going to warn you guys, regarding page two and three.

Your cap dev/advisor that can never get to actually get to editing inis because of irl here:


The Marduk does not currently reign supreme in terms of combat infact the Osiris is way better given its shape, arcs, and general handling in combat. The Osiris is a great battleship and is well balanced.

Also, whilst it can only fire 5 prims fowards, the 4 turrets combined with heavy slots mind you, makes the powercore of the mako really annoying to manage. its shape and armor nearly reflect and weapon slots reflect that of a medium bs hence the need for the powercore buff.

The osris and Marduk are fine as they are, if we rule out cloaks the Marduk might actually need a buff if anything given its arcs (as far as I know) are terrible, it moves like a slug, and it's as large as a Bismarck.

Geb needs to be reverted to a battlecruiser or upscaled. It's ridiculous how such an overpowered ship is unotuched for quite some time now. Fun fact - it still sells with a cruiser shield when you try to buy it on an npc base.

You're really pathetic if you think it's about who wins or looses. However you're free to live in your fantasy and Core brand ™ contact lenses. I am just worried what happens when you get out of this bubble.

Well said !
Too bad that Lytriux cannot understand this part at all. You're wasting precious time explaining this over and over again.

Oh c'mon don't dig it when we're one page away from this unpleasant conversation and being warned by greenies

So as it is right now, the most important thing to do in the Nomicrons is turning Geb to battlecruiser again. About Ossie&Mako stuff, if Wesker finds it problematic with Mako's stats, maybe just scale it down a bit, get rid of some stuff to make it comparable to the Ossie.
Then boost core of both BSs to make both sides happy.

Loool that's hilarious. Even the game itself knows it's broken.

I experimented with scaling and honestly if it's made smaller it might become really broken. Would have to see it in practise though.

On another note, Mako could actually just get a roll rate buff as well.

I'm not digging anything, I'm just replying a bit late because I am busy and I just found this thread.
