Ok, nevermind. Was just a matter of discussion after all.

I think we should still discuss it. It just seems a lot of us find it capable.

' Wrote:Bastet has same pretty much exactly same size as Guardian/Avenger/Nephthys.

Compare Heavy Nephy and "light" Bastet... Bastet is much more bulkier then Nephy ... it has two up wings that go side ways , Nephy has one up. Bastet is much larger target in space so its not so hard to hit.


Guardian doesn't have HUGE Side wings and it has higher power core and less agility.
Anenger is pretty same as Nephy so it works still, Bastet looks bigger then all of these ship, not to mention Eagle.

Only advantage Bastet has is 6x10 class. And so called agility ... that is useless with so big ship... make it little bit smaller then Nehpy ... it should be that was in the first place.

Bastet ( larger) - Nephy ( smaller) wut?!
Guardian (smaller) - Avenger (bigger) . Executioner should get buff on his size to get smaller then Avenger.

All other ships have pretty much parts missing on lighter ships.
Sabre ( connected wings) , Switchblade doesn't have wings connected = its smaller target.


Edit: Pretty much isn't enough.. Can Bastet get little buff to core? 1k- 2k? In this case its not little so in other case its not pretty much exactly same.

Could just switch the Bastet and Nephy models.

I like the Bastet... I think any more power would be too much, as it has an incredible six (6!) class 10 slots. That's really very good...

It taught me how to conserve energy, and I'm not bad with it now.






Against NPCs.
I'm as hopeless as ever against players.

An incredible 6 lvl 10 guns it can't fire, great !


Buff the Order VHF Bastet. - Akura - 12-09-2009

It CAN, but it shouldn't...

Here's some MathCraft.

You have a Bastet.
That Bastet features six Class 10 slots.
That same Bastet features an Eagle's powercore.

Now picture some beefy gunnery in those Class 10 slots.

Example uno:
Six Archangels.

1400 hull damage per shot.
With one.
Multiply by six?
8400 hull damage sent out everytime you pull the trigger.
Multiply by two?
16800 hull damage. Per second.
With guns.
Actual guns.
Not a Mine.
Not a Torpedo.
Not a Missile either.
And sure as hell no MiniRazor.
In other words, the possibility to shred a lighter, and armorless, bomber's hull in a second.
With guns.
That fire twice a second.
Shots moving 600 metres per second.
Doing the same damage against every shieldtype as a bonus.

You're aware about what kind of power that is, aye?
And you're also aware that there's got to be some drawbacks for the possiblity to wield such power, aye?
Well, the drawbacks are the rather small powercore and rather big size of the ship.
Fair deal for the ability to have that punch.

But there's something fancier even, example dos:
Six Nomad Energy Blasters in those Class 10 slots.

Firing all six translates into 3510 hull damage if all connect.
So a second of fire, aka four shots, possibly equals 14040 hull damage.
Pluuus, oh hey, actually very very very low powerdrain for that incredible damage which iiis, in theory, an Order exclusive thing even.

It's a ship which can deliver a raw and brutal amount of gun-based firepower in short bursts.
It even has the agility to utilize said firepower in the best way possible, aka it's agile enough to bring itself into a nice position for shooting at and hitting its target.

(Read: Right behind it as it is drifting and not dodging, ideally.)
Don' you think that's dandy enough as it is?
Be merry that you've got two different Very Heavy Fighters atleast, aye?

And before some doltnugget gets the idea to say "OMG ONLY 2 NOMguNZ ALLOWED NUB!11one"...
GTFO, your own fault if you don't use the tools you've got at your disposal and limit them yourself.
It's not the bestest ship ever, but it fills a role and gets the job done.
Be merry, you got something unique and another option if this one fails anyway.

<div align="right]Bloody ship that's agile enough and handles good enough to stay at people's rear end's and can mount six Squidguns or Arches or Excals for h4xploitability and people ain' happy 'cause it runs out of power.
Fly a Kingfisher with six Widows, I'd like to see the Q_Q wave.

They both use exactly same hitbox:D

So those bulks don't matter at all = same size.

Btw. I have had a Bastet for 8? months now:D.
