Treewyrm Wrote:But let's assume it's the second option. What weapons would those be? Go on, come up with stats you'd think would fit. Also whether they should have mines or not. Go ahead, be creative.
Lets look how it is now before we do that, shall we?
You might want to look at the morph and in particular at the fact that it can mount class 9s, but not class 10s
1-Missiles------------------------------
Nomad class 9 missile
=exact same stats as cannonball missile
Putting a beautiful nomad weapon instead of an ugly oorp looking humand weapon will have no change in wep power
2-Torp slot------------------------------
Nomad Torpedo
hull damage: 18600
Shiled damage= 9300
speed= 370
energy usage= 8000
(lmited by ammo)
Dont know about you, but I'd go with the unlimited and more efficient shieldbuster, especially if I got krakens aswell.
Putting a beautiful nomad weapon instead of an ugly oorp looking humand weapon will make your ship less powerfull, not more powerfull
3-Thruster--------------------------
Metal looking nomad thruster has exactly the same stats as a nomad looking nomad thruster.
Still, the morph is only allowed to use the ugly human one.
For some reason...
4-CDs-----------------------------
Human and nomad CDs are pretty much the same, except that the huma none looks horrible on a nomad ship. Correct me if Im wrong.
5-Guns----------------------------
Lesser Nomad Laser Type I
hull damage= 630
shield damage= 315
speed= 700
refire= 3.03
energy: 128
Nomad lesser laser Type II
Hull damage= 475
shield damage= 237
speed= 700
refire= 4
Energy usage : 96
More damage, with little less energy efficiency for the Outcast weapons. Would be interesting to note here that a morph has enough energy to fire 3 Krakens for an almost unlimited span of time. So energy efficiency doenst really matter since oyu cna fire both forever.

6-Shields-------------------------------------
Morph can mount a class 9 human LF shield... which isnt sold anywhere where a morph can buy it, since it cant land on Order or Outcast bases. It could still get the LF 9 shield if it broke rules and got it form the Outcasts tho (no one can buy before they become a morph though, because no LF except morph cna mount a class 9 shield)
I think the cnomad lass 10 LF shield must be a bit better...
So this is the only part as far as I see there a nomad tech would give any advantage over a human tech for the morph.
=====================
So...
Giving a morph the best nomad tech it can mount.... would make it WEAKER than it would be with the best human tech, except for possible the shield, which I couldnt find on the server I had access to nomad stuff on.
This means.... that the entire discussion about this subject till now had been comlete and utter...
Bullocks.
You dont have to make new weapons.
You dont have to change the mod.
All you had to do is drop a stupid useless rule that made things worse for everyone.
You could have made the morph more IRP, more beautiful, and less powerfull long ago.
But no resident nomad or morph or anyone or anyone at all chose to check on this or point it out.
I can not see any reason at all why morphs shouldnt have normal regular nomad weapons.
Except that maybe people just want others to use ugly human tech, so that someone could feel more special about themselves.
This is a sad, sad, sad fact about the state of how things are handled here, and about how players communicate to each other here.
Let morphs buy nomad tech. They cant mount any nomad stuff that is more dangerous that human tech., Restrict them to Iota, 99, 90,delta, kappa, minor, alaska. It would fix both the omicrons and the morph-infested house liberty. If you want to LEARN nomad RP, you better do it with Keepers. In the rest of sirius, you arent learning it, you are practicing it on people who have no desire to hear it.
Its so easy.
WHY does it take so much time and so much effort for people to open there eyes and unclog their brains?
