(Kaze here, cba to switch accounts on the phone)

Turret steering gummmmboats.

Three fighters? If they know what to do. Since they are faster than bombers, the dodging capability is higher, thus, a TS gb will have a harder time making damage. But still will do.

It's a rinse repeat work that takes 20 minutes. But doable.

TS Gb against bombers? Lulz. Either his aim is fracked up, or he will chew bombers with gusto.
All he needs to do is time the bombers snacs to avoid them.

Now gunboats are doing what they are required off. Snub killing.
Which is excelente, since before, gunboats were well.. sitting ducks with a thruster.
(I only fly snubs, btw, totally not biased, i hate gb's, seriously)

But then again, as always, there is always counters.

A TS gb is mainly defensive. Yep. You heard me. It's good to get ganked in it. It's nano suicide to hit it.

But make everyone focus on something else, he's just another pair of guns.

When that happens? Time your snac's, infernos, guns, etc, and hit it in surprise in a sudden simultaneous attack.
Since he will be focused in chasing someone's behind, he won't be turret steering and dodging like a maniac.

And if you're lucky, have enough snac's or firepower on your side...
He's insta'd before he could say "Oh my go-".

There's always the old gank the ever living scrap out of it. But you need a frackload of snubs for that.

^What Kaze said.

A steering GB is easy to run from for any snub, the only dead snubs are the one's who stick around.

Everything still depends on player skill. Two good VHF pilots who know how to properly fight a GB can still take one out without much more difficulty than before. Even if the GB pilot knows how to turret steer well. Heck, even a VHF and HF can (tested, confirmed, NPC spammed even. Q_Q)

I agree with Caleb here.

Two VHF's against a good TS turret GB? Good luck.
