Derk, Dab, it's probably best to just ignore him for a while. He's obviously suffering from a lot of angry thoughts which were suddenly displaced because he couldn't handle his temper.
Regarding the Battle Razors, they probably should be nerfed a little. Wouldn't be such a problem if they didn't deal splash damage, but seeing as it can insta multiple in one shot, there goes your fleet.

1. One razor hit on hull instakills a bomber with Mk8 armour upgrade. Full health or not. If you have two razors mounted on opposite sides of the battleship, you can instakill something in one shot.
2. You can bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch... truth is nobody cares about your bitching if it doesn't make any sense or reeks of powerplaying. Don't expect battleships or cruisers to be buffed against bombers anytime soon, no matter how much you whine and bitch. You want to be good against bombers? Buy a fighter or get an escort.
Simple as that.

"Look! Whats that on Blodo!" ITS A BLINDFOLD!
"GASP!"
Please remove to see reality.

Reality? Here it is: Your powerplaying ways do not concern us. Bombers are a hard counter to your battleship. Sorry!
Don't like it? Go somewhere else.

This is more than a little surprising, because i was thinking this exact same thing the other day.
I was in Omega 5 and an Outcast Dessie comes up on scope, so naturally I whoop and holler in my nat of a Titan and start scratching it's shield for all the good it'll do me, but then I noticed that it was actually HITTING me outside of it's primary/secondary weapon range. Okay, I said to myself, lucky shot. I just have to jump around a little bit....
I had to hide behind an asteroid because he was so bloody accurate with that thing. If I hadn't been in the only system with that dense a asteroid field, I probably would have been one-shoted.
So yeah, my personal opinion is that it's probably too fast, or at least eats up too little energy. The very fact that I was running for my life from a capship a good long distance away is probably not a good thing.

Whats REALLY funny is that razors are a counter to bombers and this is what this thread is complaining about.
Sorry, but thats hipocrisy.
:lol:
Battle Razors.. - Blodo - 03-28-2009
Razors are only a counter to bombers that fly in straight lines or way too close. Kind of like Supernovas can instakill fighters.
However yes I suppose the refire delay could be increased on razors...
Battle Razors.. - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 03-28-2009
Well, there is your statement.
They must have made a fatal error, and thats exactly what fatal means.
Just because you got killed by a cap doesnt mean it needs to be nerfed.

Wait, so battleships should be able to fight against fighters, bombers, gunboats, cruisers and other battleships effectively?
Swiss army knife much?
Battle Razors.. - JakeSG - 03-28-2009
Well, look, if you don't like your Battleship getting pwnt, go play your server. You know, the one where you had to resort to removing bombers?
Reality is, it takes four bombers a lot of effort and time to take down a single unarmoured Battleship that can't one hit you. Minimum ten minutes of dodging, weaving and regenning, hoping to hell you don't accidentally fly into a burst and become removed from existence. Now, quadruple their hull and add the ability to one hit not just a single bomber, but anything else within the blast radius. Then, you've got a problem.
