As a question to some of the hardcore PvPers out there at the moment and as I can't seem to find the information anywhere else,

Does anyone have any stats on the T3 BC's as far as Kills/Losses and broken down by race and the like? I'm asking this because the T3 BC's still seem to see very little actual combat usage, might have something to do with the Cruiser like HP and crap resistances. Which I still believe that CCP should take a solid look at. Anyway, that's for more discussion..

I'll try to be helpful... wether this is a troll or not.

The Tornado hold rank 4, the Naga rank 14 and the Oracle rank 17 on the current kill-volume.

Put them together (considering the class uniformity) and they are the second most popular ship(s) in the game, bested only by the ever popular Drake.

Then again, the kill totals are as always just statistics listing popularity among the largest alliances and nothing more.

What kind of information are you looking for? If you can specify more someone else may be able to help you better.

The Oracle is really awesome for killing IOPOs in WHs. Massive dps even with T1 ammo, and no worries about running out.

Not a troll at all, and thank you. I am honestly interested in this information.

This is largely because are using them to smash drakes for some reason.

You want to see tier 3s in action, check the .-A-. killboards, we've been out scrapping in them all night to good effect.

They have some great damage projection, and everyone and their mother has at least a few levels in the BC skill. This plus the face that they are pretty versatile, and still the newest addition to the game and you get some very popular ships.

Generally:
Tornado - Suicide ganks, arty sniper, AC fleet ship
Naga - LONG range sniper, or terrifying blaster boat
Talos - Best tier 3 for solo, VERY fast, scary with blasters, DRONES!
Orcale - Bane of hisec/WH structures, Tachyon Sniper, great roam ship

They're not good for anything in the age of Winmatards...

The Lachesis on there doesn't actually kill anything. The same can be said of disproportionally large amount of drakes up top (your scourge heavy missile hits ____ for 29 dmg).

That list shows what gets on km, not what actually kills stuff. Tornado and Oracle are more deadly than statistics give them credit for.
