Bad thread aside, I do think the T3 BCs need a small nerf.

T3 Battlecruisers are awesome. They add a nice challenge to fleet battles and keep you on your toes while moving the fleet through lowsec, plus it's fun to shatter those glass cannons.

Or just undocking where the T3 is already in strike position waiting to hit F1.

You do realize that he can not target you until you move your ship and you can redock with impunity. Roll


Great, so all my wares get to sit in station because I can't move them.


This is EVE, they're not going to make a super-secret sneak out the back door undock anytime soon, so you'd better get used to it.

This is relevant to your interests OP: Tracking Guide

Keep up transversal and a T3 can't hit a frig, so I can say with near certainty, you were doing it wrong.

Before inferno you could lose 90m on a ganking ship with over 10k volley. After inferno you still lose 90m on a ganking ship with over 10k volley. They gave Tier 3's, they removed insurance. Not sure what is the point of this thread.

Fly fast moving frigates, use a spiraling attack to keep the transversal angle up, get in, neut and web, game over - T3 Cruiser dead.

Just farting on a Tier 3 BC is enough to kill it, you're obviously doing it wrong.

They have no drones (well, except for the Talos, but it lacks range compared to the others), and no tank.

Learn to insta-undock.

Next?

Star Wars: the Old Republic may not be EVE. But I'll take the sound of dual blaster-pistols over "NURVV CLAOKING NAOW!!!11oneone!!" any day of the week.

Why, yes. Yes, there is:

Look up m0o and the Zombies. Ganking has been a part of EvE since Beta. It's just gotten steadily harder/more expensive... which kind of works against your "thought," I guess.


you forgot BURN EDEN - my favourite get ganked / grief killed by corp ever !

Yeah but moo takes the cake. They were single handedly responsible for quite a few changes to the game mechanics.

As someone who flies a nano talos, if you think that the nano talos is well-balanced, you are out of your mind. They're not extremely unbalanced, and lol @ the OP complaining about frigates vs. tier 3 battlecruisers, but they should be a bit less agile. Small tweaks, and certainly not a priority.

Take a frigate and orbit it. See how much damage they do to you.
