Tridente Gunship

[Montezuma/Kukulcan]

Let me interject, on a raid on alpha today, as a corsair, i passed FP9, where a Tridente and BHG GUNSHIP where fighting, it was one of the most evenly matched fights i have ever seen, then when our GB showed up and engaged, the Tridente was destroyed without too much of a fuss, as it simply doesnt have the firepower of the Corsair gunboat, which is intended to be a heavy gunboat.

Also, as a former pilot of a Tridente, i think that it is the equel of the BHG GS, not only in agility, but also in size, meaning: it is a b***h to hit with a SNAC. Even though it has the armour, it is the size and agility of the BHG GS, and also on the infocard, it says how it is one of the most advanced new outcast ships (or something like that). This should lead you to the conclusion that it is right in being named a gunship.

in that case it might just be that the BH GB needs to be readvised then because its armor is less than the tridente not much tho but enought to notice in a battle.

heres an answer that should get through to you, since its going to be rather blunt. No. Non. Negative. get it? its called denial. you sir, have been denied your request of having your ships buffed just so you can kill something while others squirm with no way to defend themselves against you.

you have brought no valid points to the table, your arguement is void, and you are just here to have the ships you fly buffed, and the ships you fight nerfed, so for once in your life, you can win a fight. guess what, lad. discovery doesnt revolve around you only. there are loads of other people who have no problems such as yourself, and most of the time, disco goes by the majority vote. now instead of making useless posts, how about you go ahead and practice in your ships to kill or, for a nice change, write up a nice lil RP story for your characters.:dry:

If it makes you happy I'll edit the infocard to read 'Outcast "Merry Fatpants" Class Bunboat'

That way you can complain that it's really more of a loafship.

I'll sign on that dotted line.

Just because you have issues with the ship in question does not mean it needs a buff. I fly an OC GS and I can square off against most other GB/GSes without problems. With the proper skill and finesse the Tridente is a very potent weapon. If you know what you are doing two of them can take a BS. So it cant go blow for blow with a sair GB, perhaps you should use tactics instead of the good ole "Mongo Smash" attitude.

perhaps, but i still want this ship to be examined further. If not anything at all can the BH GB armor be matched to the liberty GB armor specs it would only seem fair or atleast close to it

[Zero755]

There are more to the balancing aspects than just armor. I have flown most of the GB's in .85 and I havent found any issues with them. When used properly they are a force to be reckoned with, especially now with the bomber nerf. The BH GB is fine. The OC GS is fine. I highly doubt anything will be done to either of them.

this assumptions how ship is strong are based on its name...and that is wrong....

also, whoever calls Trident "weak" just to clarify its name then IMG GB, Rogue GB, Orca, Kusari Gb, Zoner GB and Storm would be classified as gunships...they all have less turrets and armor then Trident.
Even if we remove gunboats with fwd guns (kusari and Orca) we still get several ships named gunboats and who have less armor and turrets then Trident. If we then remove all those of small size we are left with IMG GB and Zoner GB...both still called gunboats...


Then we have Gaian gunship that has size, armor and turret number of Rogue Gb....and again one is called a gunship and other a GB....

Its just a name and all of those ships are in the same class...and all of them are balanced among each other...

then might it just come down to a slight name change like heavy gunship or improved gunship

I want that.... can we do that please?
