SNAC and Nova

[jammi]

Orly? So far the only GB I haven't been able to solo in my Waran is the Gaian Claymore (that thing is so annoying) and I've fought Outcast, Corsair, Order and IMG GBs recently.

We will have to have a go you and me...

You've killed me twice:POnce during that incident outside Trafalgar, and another time you hit me with a razor while I was banking into a turn (good shot there). I've done plenty of other Corsair GBs though. You're just better than me I suppose.

I think there should be SNAC with shield dmg only and nova torpedo (same as now):)

No. I like the current parameters.

This has been discussed many times before.

The SNAC is fine the way it is. Bombers are meant to take down capital ships. If you don't want them to take down your capship, then I suggest you get a gunboat, since you need 4 or 5 bombers to take GB's down.

The Nova should be more powerful in my opinion, since people die using it anyways...

nah...2 Bomber enough for a GB

[Grimly]

No. I like the current parameters.

Agreed on the Supernova Antimatter Cannon.
A bit less on the Nova Torpedo Launcher.

For me, the Nova torpedo launcher should get a few boost, mostly on the damage range (+100% explosion range I'd say)

We all know that using it against a fighter mean getting killed as well by the nova, but the problem comes to the capital ship shields. Some of them can be hit, while other cannot at all. I would name the Outcast battleship or the Corsair Legate they both cannot feel a nova while an Osiris when we fire on its nose, feel the impact on the shield even more than a SNAC would do.

Just my opinion anyway ... I will deal with how it is right now.

I agree, I'd like to see a bump for novas. In fact I think I already said that in this thread!
Basically, they're rarely used. And those that do use them, they're fairly dodgy. It's a supernova that does slightly more damage, with the down sides of:
Can miss through no fault of your own
Can do nothing even if it hits
Can kill you
Can kill your friends
Runs out of ammo
Costs money

It need something to help it out. Right now nova bombers are pariahs in fights. They have to announce in group chat every time they do anything, and no one wants to be around them. Barghests got that extra torp slot so we'd see more nova usage, but how many people put a minirazor there? That's saying something.
