Now please explain How the Orca is buffed to anything?

Firstly it has 6 Guns and a Forward gun.
Secondly it has Brilliant Agility.
thirdly It is so slim.

Now i just went for a quick fight against one of these with my New Corsair GB And honeslty That gunboat is Buffed to anything, When I was jousting it I missed most of the time because of its shape And next thing i know its allready on my ass killing my Shields/Hull,

Tell me why is this thing so Epic?

Every time you die to something in game, or die whilst flying something, you seem to create a thread complaining over its balance. Not to be rude, but have you ever considered the notion that you aren't very good in PvP?

If you want when I get settled in I'll PvP with you as much as you want.

Keep in mind load-out. Was he armed with razors and EMPs while you had solarises? Also consider that some gunboats are designed to fight capitals while some were made to function in an anti-fighter role.

And always remember, skill plays the most important factor. A few weeks ago I fought a Corsair GB in my Molly GB. I had 3.0 armor and full Saoirces, he had 4.0 armor and full Corsair turrets. I didn't expect to win in the least, since I'm not very good GB pilot, but lo' and behold when I beat him.

Point is, skill trumps all. He was an awful pilot, so even though he had a far greater chance of beating me, he still lost. That's why threads like these mean nothing, as well.

I agree completely with Orin on both of his points. Especially this:
Quote:...have you ever considered the notion that you aren't very good in PvP?

The Orca has a forward gun, so it's likely to be better against other gunboats if the captain can use it properly.

Well, either he had specilized weaponry, or you simply fail at PVP, since that thing is piss easy to hit. Raped one with two werewolfs, since it had no missile turrets. As far I can see you are simply trying to nerf anything that comes your way, remember many people use TCDs on you, or, start turning before you pass, thus, he is on your tail the whole time.

I've beaten the snuff out of an Orca with a Junker Bomber that doesn't even have an SN.

This is a case of "PEBKAC", sorry.

It's true guys. The Orca is overpowered. I've flown with Cosmos before and he is an awesome pilot. Anything that is able to kill somebody like him who is man enough to stand still and let people shoot him needs to be nerfed.

For the Core.

The Facts

El Lunchbox

The Corsair Gunboat has a bigger hold size, more regens, 30k more armour, more power, faster power regeneration and 8 turrets.

The "Miami Vice" Speedboat

The Orca has better max angular speed and angular distance.

I thank you.
