    You wont see much of an effect in PVE.. Works with Torpedo spread..Depending on the opponents control skill point level ..they may barely notice the effect in PVP.. At one time this was just nasty..

    What changed then, if I may ask, that it's now less nasty?

    I like it for PvE. Nothing spells survival so well as a confused foe. :)

    it doesn't confuse, it disables

    it used to be unresistable. oh the havoc it would cause when it was used with SCI torpedo boats :D *Cough NOVA*

    probably doesn't help there is a trait that add a chance to confuse to torpedos.


    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    We're talking about the Benthan's Starship Trait, Load Viral Torpedo, correct? IIRC it works on your primary target of TS/HY/single shot whenever you activate Eng/Sci/Tac/Intel Team.

    I knew using Kinetics would be playing the game on hard mode, but what I didn't realize was how bad the deck is stacked against Kinetics.
