T-833-GB "Ahoudori" Kusari Explorer - Bloom - 05-31-2011
' Wrote:On paper it looks overpowered, sure.
I've never seen one, though, much less fought one. The KuEx, on the other hand, I see all the time.
Used to fight fairly often. Sometimes in "packs" of up to 3...you do the math..

i killed 2 on my BH GS yesterday without refilling my bots/bats.
All about how you pilot your Gunboat.

' Wrote:On paper it looks overpowered, sure.So are you saying that the KuEx is overpowered, or that not everyone should have one? Because trust me, the KuEx is not overpowered, no GB is... not even the Scorpion with its 5000d/s turrets and super agility. I bet a KuEx pilot skilled enough can do it...

What makes a ship good/bad is the person flying it, not the stats.

Well, now you've gone a bit too far. Worst thing about Scorpion is it's model. I can't even see when that thing turns.
It's like saying a Warran can beat a Battlecruiser. Sure it can, but the chances are it's not going to happen, if the other player has any idea what's he doing.

It's a long video, but still. Caleb, if you want it removed, just poke me in skype (would have asked beforehand, but you logged <.<)

' Wrote:Well, now you've gone a bit too far. Worst thing about Scorpion is it's model. I can't even see when that thing turns.Erhum.... Take this video not as proof that the KuEx is overpowerd, because stat wise the Scorpion is FAR better than the KuEx is every way. Take it as proof that its the skill of the pilot that's the factor, because in the OP's world Scorpion>KuEx everytime.

But Rorry has proven otherwise --> http://www.xfire.com/video/47af07/
Don't confuse 'skilled' with 'overpowered.'
In this fight, the Scorpion had 6 Nom turrets and 2 Razors. I had 2 Pulse, and 5 Zoner turrets. To lay down the STATs:
Wild fella
Nom Turrets = 5000d/s. So 5000d/s x6 is 30,000d/s
His Hull is 105k x3.8 (CAU7) So his hull was 399k
Me
Zoner Turrets= 3400d/s. So 3400d/s x5 is 17,000d/s
My hull is 100 x3.8 (CAU7) So my hull was 380k
Do I even have to mention the agility factor?
So again I state:

Sure it can, but the chances are it's not going to happen, if the other player has any idea what's he doing.A Barghest can solo an LABC pretty easily, and the Waran is a pretty similar machine. They have the same powercore, at least. I can also solo LABCs in my Liberty Rogue Gunboat, it's not a hard task.

I was going to make an open use gunboat.
I got bitched out "WE DONT NEED OPEN USE GUNBOATS, WE DONT NEED MORE FOR 4.86" etc etc.
Now you're wishing I had continued making it.
' Wrote:It's like saying a Warran can beat a Battlecruiser. Sure it can, but the chances are it's not going to happen, if the other player has any idea what's he doing.I was flying the Barghest for about 15 minutes prior to this fight. It was my first bomber. I beat the hell out of a cap 8 LABC for having no experience (or idea what I was doing) at all.

I understand that perhaps the fella ain't that good, but it does not mean I lack all sort of skill. Just a note.

' Wrote:The point was to show that ships that are considered OP'd are beatable mate.Every ship is beatable provided it has an incompetant enough pilot. But just like a skilled pilot doesn't make an overpowered ship, an incompetant pilot doesn't make a ship balanced or underpowered.
