Nah, there is that 20 second immunity to the effects when it wears off. The only thing it would change is your confusion level in PvP, because all targets would simply vanish while under the effect. This allows a single ship to engage an enemy target that is surrounded by supporting ships (Fedball). It would certainly be…
-
If I made any change, it would be that Jam Sensors should prevent the ability to target ANY enemy of that faction, not just the player that activated it. Scramble Sensors should prevent the ability to target ANY target outside of themselves. Those would be the changes I would make. As is, the skills are fine. Just pay…

Exactly.. You measure your DPS by what you can do, not what you can do in a hypercharged group. There is no 50k dps build in this game, it's not mathematically possible in my experiences with one ship. I laugh at the clowns that think my DPS is low or something. I've never actually commented on how high my DPS is because I…
-
That's just because this game is so ridiculously easy. I am honestly not trying to TRIBBLE you off in any way. It's just sometimes (often lately) I see something crazy and I try to figure out the logic they were using behind the selections. I get you want to be the crazy science guy, but don't be the non science science…
-
The only freaking way you are hitting 50k (lol) is by hitting targets that can't even take dmg. People that talk smack like 50k dps are a joke because they can't do simple math. Yeah, I run a parser. I run several different types and never has anyone held over 25k for the duration of a match in real DMG. Ever. You idiots…
-
Again, not my build of choice for a Recluse, but with both sets, under a GW that Lattice will annihilate whatever targets got sucked in. You could ever tag on a Refracting Cascase and/or ISO Charge if you wanted. The point is that with your very limited DPS you designed, a 3min AoE BO Lattice won't hurt. My Recluse is…
-
Both. Regardless, if you go all the way back to the original post I made on his build, I said something to the effect of disagreeing with the build entirely, BUT if I had to run it, I would use both Tetryon Sets for the extra bump in DPS/DMG.
-
Did you even read the first sentence? Clearly...I checked the build. I don't know anyone that would nerf their own Science by running not one, but two A2B.. You sir, are a class act hah.
-
I assumed he wanted the Tet set for the Tet bonus. Which is why I asked about the Tet Space set as well. Lattice is a Beam Overload that hits primary and secondary targets. It's wicked to have if you are going to use Tets. (I am talking about the two Nukara Space Sets guys. How is that confusing??) There is the Space Set…
-
Nope, five dual beams will do more and shows YOUR inexperience. Now, if you are one of those lazy players that can't be bothered to plan ahead over spamming space bar, that's fine, but there are better ships to use for that. capnshadow, i've seen your builds...so go sit back in the corner little man.
-
RSP1 or RSP3 w/doff, never RSP2.. You just wasted a sweet spot on an Eng Boff. Also, Dual A2B with a Commander Boff ship has got to be one of the better facepalm ideas I have seen since that player that put four Engineering Teams on his ship...Cause he didn't want to die. heh I am no picking on you CapnShadow..I am trying…
-
AND dump the Tachyon Beam. It's junk. A TB with a Doff will strip more shields than Tachyon Beam and it fires in 360 degrees.. I honestly don't agree with your build at all in the OP. You've mounted Energy Weapons, yet went out of your way to have nothing but the subsystem targeting the ship came with.. You'd be better off…
-
Beam Arrays in the forward slot of a 5 forward weapon vessel seems kind of stupid. Dual Beam Banks would be a better punch.. If all you were going to do is run Beam Arrays on the dang thing, why did you even bother to purchase it? If you want beams, run Dual Banks.. Five Antiproton Dual Beam Banks up front, the Omni 360…
-
I think the next weapon type to get love will be the Phaser via Modulated Phaser Array/Cannon that additionally gives increased shield penetration and has bleed through dmg against Barrier Fields. On Tactical Consoles, I think you will see a vast array of new Tact Consoles that boost both primary stat and a second stat for…
-
I don't think the JHAS was ever considered the most deadly escort, but the most dangerous because they have been so hard to kill in the past. BoP Alpha Snipers are the most deadly escort(raider) in the game. Fleet T'varo has the ability to take down a 65k+ ship in two to three seconds and the Fleet B'rel/Norgh are beyond…
-
Three cannon skills is gross and wasteful. You could have all three attack patterns, ensuring that one is always up. Just retrain the cannon skill for PVP or carry additional Boffs. If you cannot run Elite Disruptors, go AP, Refrac Tet or Pol and use their bonus sets. In my experiences, nothing melts faster that a cluster…
-
Honestly, I do not recall a time where they used a Tractor Beam while firing on the enemy ship. If you were going to change anything in this game regarding TB, it would be to shut off your weapons when you use TB and have a doff that negates the effect on weapons. But honestly, what would be the point? ZERO. Best to work…
-
Peace sells, but who's buying?
-
Yea, he'd be better off opening with his Beta3 and switching to Delta after that since he should have aggro by then.
-
With the skills you've choosen, a single A2B is pointless. I'd flip that build's boff skills to 2xDEM1 and 1xA2D2 w/A2D doff. You won't need RSP in PvE if you pay attention.
-
I still think that all ships should get a natural bonus to their faction based weapons. Fed +Phas KDF +Dis Rom +Plas Jem +Pol Thol +Tet and so on.. You can use whatever type you want, but you would see a bonus for sticking to what your alignment has generations of experience using.
-
We run this more than 2xA2B or 2xA2D on my teams. Our fights are short (15secs) so we don't need two of either skill. One to get the refresh and the other to give protection and speed if things go wonky. Works very well on BoPs that wish to maintain high Aux power under stealth that gets flipped automatically to weapons…

If you don't start talking smack or crying "cheater / hacker" when you get your shuttle bay handed to you, the pvp community is rather generous with tips on how to improve your ship build and/or what it is you are doing wrong.
-
No point in running a five forward weapon ship with beams....There are better cruisers for that type of build.
-
Fleet Patrol Escort IS way deadlier in PvP than the MVAM imo opinion. It is a very meat and potatoes escort.
-
Every skill should crit. Every weapon should crit. However, I have no problem with a limitation timer on a crit from each skill and weapon.
-
You don't need to run A2B doffs with what I am talking about. I mean, you can but 3 battery buff doffs are going to do way more for you if your target has over 70k in hull. I'd just go 3 battery buff doffs, 1 A2D doff and 1 warpcore debuff strip doff. That makes 3 for the attack and 2 for your defense. If you want balls to…
-
Flip the APO3 and SV2... Make it TT, SV1, APO1, RF3. Have your second Tactical Boff be a reverse of this.. So TT, RF1, APO1, SV3. This lets you flip them depending on the mission and/or PvE-P. Antiproton 360 is, imo, a waste if you cannot run the set, so dump it for another turret or tractor mine (Boff skill not a…
-
Site could really use an update for sure. I'd like to see the plugin section include this plugin as well. It's the only plugin my mates and I have found that has us all with the same numbers when we stay in range. The others don't work very well. You could also cover things like the mini parse window and the end combat…
-
You don't need Marion for a Sniper Build. If your fights last more than five seconds, you move out and try again. You don't need RSP..You want speed, so A2D. If you are hanging around long enough to need RSP, you are doing it wrong. A lot of your victories are going to come from being really annoying to the target, so…
