Drake will destroy hurricane 10 times out of 10

Blaster megathron at 0-3 km will destroy Maelstrom in matter of seconds.

Zealot blob will pick up just about everything.

Sacrilige is not that bad.

That is funny.

Vegabonds can disengage Ishtars can not. Active Tank close Range Maelstrom can tank a Mega easily while Arty Mael Blobs would wreck any similar number of Mega's. Zealots Die to Welp Canes and Drakes. Hurricanes can disengage from Drakes. The Sac is a pretty terribad HAC.

So if every race is better at Gallente the solution is to fly not Gallente...

So continue on as usual.

vagabond engaging ratting raven / with one heavy neut have to dissengage or is lost.
Isthar doing the same will utterly destroy the raven.

Its all situational. Anyway lets wait and see upcoming changes are just first step, maybe in second, third iteration of crucible you will be pleasantly suprised.

And yes blaster ships are good only for station games and gank stuff.. AFAIK ... but i never flied them nor i use hybrid turrets so .

Excuse me...does this look like the face of a slave to you, imbecile? Minmatar intelligence has NO equals. WE have made piles of rust fly and stand up to the most polished of ships, and DEFEAT them. WE (with the help of our Gallente friends, whom I thank to no end) escaped the bonds of slavery, and we continue to be the largest of the thorns in your sides, Amarr scum.

We are the Minmatar. We are the Republic.

In rust we trust.

You are right, we Gallente are to be thanked for helping you escape the amarr slavers. I am still wondering why haven't you given us your amazing technology that allows projectiles being fired without the use of capacitor, but I've heard that by the end of the month our turrets will advance and will be in par with yours!

Yes, I thank you all dearly. We owe our freedom to you. As for that, we're still developing the technology. And yes, I've heard as well. 'Tis a great day for the Federation.

Well actually gallente is very useful when you fly Dramiels, Daredevils, Cynabals and Machariels.

For everything else sub cap is crap, ho w8 true there are arazus/lachesis using long points because their E-war is crap too.

Lol

I find it almost hilarious to see so much hate on Gallente stuff. Lol

Holy crap, you're right. I missed it because I was too busy trying to fit a MWD, tank and heavy pulses on my Harbinger. You know... like a Hurricane with 425s.

Hint: You need to shield tank and nano it - it's almost like a less capstable cane with worse tracking, range, tank and no damage selection then...

Good point. The last thing we need is everyone flying around in huge blobs of Hurricanes or Drakes.
