My ******* gods, I am the biggest carebear that ever cared about bears but this is too sweet not to just stop and harvest some tears of my very own.

So supercaps are finally going to work like real world capital ships - ie, screwed if they lose their support fleet?

1: I don't give a crap, I live in hisec and have never even SEEN a supercap.
2: Evolve or die.
3: ????
4: Give me your stuff.

Your end-game in this case is getting infamous in the EVE forums for extreme tears over the SC nerf.
The forum has a very long memory and the public perception here will spill/carry over into the game.

There are good reasons why some people don't post with their mains (or non-throw away alts).

The end-game is the same as it's ever goddamn been:




A DRAKE PUTTING OUT 600 EM DPS PER SECOND ON TOP SECRET COMBAT PATROLS


Yes, everyone remembers who you are, fool

Tears are so yummie!

not ccp's fault that you lack the charisma, ambition and skill to adopt a leadership role in nullsec

that's the endgame son, not having a titan or a supercarrier - becoming a leader and taking your people to war, and winning.

As it happens that's the endgame in any MMO. Back when I played WOW, the endgame for me wasn't to have tier-whatever pixels or a big number beside my arena rating. The endgame was having the prestige, the power, and the fame of being a leader of other anti-social nerds, of being provably better than you, your friends, and everyone else you know, and so forth. MMOs are all about social dynamics and group activity.

just because i haven't posted in some time i feel the need to do this

((600 EM) damage/second)/second it could then be written as ((600 EM)damage*second)/second

second/second =1

would come out to 600 EM damage

DPS per second actually refers to damage acceleration, which in turn can be used to derive damage momentum, damage velocity, and, ultimately, damage gravity, damage quantum flux, and damage spin. This is proof positive that Garen is overpowered with his broken spin-to-win attack.

untrue, because you are forgetting the teemo bait variable

B^t

this states that if a teemo is present the garen will be attacted to said teemo and ignore the team fight, thus loosing it for his team.

this is proof positive as i have just played 3 games this morning wile playing teemo and had 2 garens follow me across the map just to die from shrooms and blind darts

They arnt out of the game, merely reduced to the role they were supposed to have from th esatrt, to be an awesomely strong addition to a large fleet, not to be a fleet all alone.

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.
