Title: Missiles
Post by: Jarkko on December 11, 2008, 01:41:06 PM
What is the fuss about missiles on the official forum? Seems to be a very hot topic, new pages appear to thread every 5 minutes  :o  Some seem to cry missiles are nerfed to oblivion, while others seem to have "L2P" stance. So, could somebody please tell what is it that is causing all that, and was there really some massive nerf to missiles yesterday?

Missiles - and speed - where nerfed a month ago in the QR expansion/patch itself.

Missiles are still viable, but they arent the "I win" button they were in mission builds anymore - well they are but with a little more thought and a target painter.

From what I understand missiles has their explosion radius lowered (this is what I figured out as since I rarely use them I dont really care) and as such its harder for bigger missiles to rape smaller ships ie frigs used to be easy kills for ravens in pve etc, now they need to work at it, or use drones :D

The threads are just the small minority whining about having to "adapt or die".
