  • Bah. Guess I was just being overly sensitive not to realize you guys were joking. Sorry. I'm afraid I always payed more attention to your builds, tactics and timing than damage numbers thissler. Sorry again. Let's just let this thread die guys.

  • I originally created this thread because I was proud of myself for finally attaining something noteworthy. I had felt I had found a unique concept for a build that was actually on par with some of the things I've seen on here and elsewhere. I'm actually a little disappointed that instead of "Grats! Good job!" I get doubt…

  • I think your choice of sets is a bit off. The amaco able crew thing is a flat bonus, meaning ships with small crews get a lot out of it, whereas ships like yours will barely notice a thing. Have you considered dyson or Borg 2piece for added tankiness? Or maybe a fleet deflector for the sci ability CD reduction?
  • I think one of the main problems some people have getting this ship to perform is that they run aux2bat on it. This isn't a bort or some fed cruiser. Its a race car, drive it like one. I run aux2damp with DBBs and this thing is an absolute beast. I hit 172 turn rate once :) Just crank the throttle to 100% and never touch…
  • My opinion? Most (i said MOST, not all) scim pilots are aux2bat faw space bar warriors and they most likely are miffed about faw not critting right now(not that the scim even needs to crit to be near-OP) and have either gone elsewhere or swapped to escorts. This post sounds bitter. I'm sorry for that, just the way I feel.
  • The question of what makes a "good" build will most likely result in a huge argument. So I won't touch it with a ten foot pole. As to the rear torpedo issue, there are a few different reasons to run an aft torp. Most of them are PvP related, true, but they also apply to pve in one degree or another. 1. Set bonus. Some rep…
  • Not a bad suggestion... I'm slightly worried it will be OP when you take into account the number of beams but its absolutely something to consider and something for the cryptic math guys to work out. I like the idea of it impacting drain, seems rather obvious that it should in all honesty (surprised I didn't think of it :)…
  • Alright, after reading this and other threads like it for months, I have a few thoughts. First, full disclosure, I am a KDF PVPer that mildly min/maxes on builds I feel are just fun. I don't want to fire up the argument again but I feel aux2bat tech doffs are clearly the biggest unbalancing factor in the game and thus…
  • First, a disclaimer: I'm no expert nor do I crunch all the numbers. I just PvP a lot and read the forums daily. Mostly I rely on the expertise of others much smarter than I, add my own twist and then go by what "feels right". So here's what I "feel" about your build...pretty darned good :) Only concerns I have are that…
  • Muhahaha... The I.K.S. Fek'lhr lives! Now I've got to figure out how the heck to fly it. It actually has a proper turning pivot so its completely alien to me after flying my Qin for the past 3 months.
  • If they actually did have them... You could also add the two piece khg (adapted maco to you fed petaqs) for another +25% torp damage.
  • Think we forced up the Dev blog timeline by letting everyone know about the leak? ;)
  • Great... Now I just have to decide if I want to give up the amazing adaptive resists on my fleet shields or [AMP] on my fleet core. Hard choice :( Most likely going to give up the shields. Almost everyone runs AP now anyways so it shouldn't hurt TOO much.
  • The [AMP] core gives you an increase to ALL damage you do (weapons, sci powers, everything) for every subsystem that is currently at or above 75. If you run weapons at 100 then that's +3.3% damage. If your shields are at 50 and you have various boosts (maybe the leech console or something) then you've got +6.6%. Pop a aux…
  • *drool* I just found the pic too. Excuse me, I have to go wake up the wife to... Help me with something ;)
  • Well... Maybe I'll pick up a fleet DBB then and try it out. Maybe I should just drop the torp. I hate to be a cookie-cutter raptor pilot but in PVP you're kinda required to stick with what works I guess. An idea I had with the tractor beam was dropping the proton console, and maybe my armor in favor of the dark spot…
  • @deokkent: Are you suggesting I run a beam, 2 cannons and a torp? I had considered that but I thought it would really cut down on my non-burst DPS. I do like sneaking in right under their rears before decloaking :) Closer the better from the charts I've seen (5km is the sweet spot but there is increased damage right up to…
