Blastos actual performance doesn't matter anymore, it's awesome just for of the pure entertainment value it created out of this thread Blink.

Just think about it, instead of having Cheerios in the morning you could treat yourself a delicious bowl of Blastos. Yummy!

Could even make commercials for it.

Here comes the morning,
Having a hard time darling?
A bowl of Blastos a day,
Keeps your forum boringness away!
Blastos™, Blastos™!*

Same, but that felt good anyway.

As a frigate pilot, this thread interests me greatly. I was unable to beat a Talos multiple times (in practice fights) with a Harbinger, but I haven't tried to tackle one yet. MWDs are out of the question, but I wonder... can I do it in an AB Rifter, or do I have to pull my Malediction out?

I think I saw a rifter solo a Talos on a KB earlier. I'll see if I can find it.

That's why solo Talos fits bring ecm drones, if he didn't have ECM drones then any frigate with a scram&AB which can deal with a flight of lights can kill a Talos.

Spaceship arguments, best arguments.

In other news, it's good to see threads complaining about gallente OP-ness for a change instead of the usual winmatar ones. Well worth reading over my bowl of Blastos Big smile

Got to say, fun thread to read.

Cyziaki has certainly shown some major fail in the math department but has impressive killboard stats. I respect both her and Liang's ingame prowess so if they think that the ship is OP (regardless of the fact a Zealot does track better) because it can apply much better effective DPS on anything within disruptor range, then I'd tend to agree.

I do think that the Talos having a drone bay is at odds with the role the tier 3s are supposed to fill. I also think that if they are going to buff tracking on a weapons system they need to think hard on whether to re-evaluate tracking bonuses on ships using those weapons to avoid this sort of situation occurring.

However, main point I wanted to make is that for some reason it seems that guys who use a female avatar seem to become more hormonal as a result, and tend to argue in a similar fashion to how the GF does whenever she's wrong but will not ever come round to thinking logical, has anyone else noticed that???

Additionally, I've always thought that speeds should be such that an AB frig can catch a MWD BC or BS when overheating, which would help to balance things much better. i'd say that this should be accomplished by having 1mn ABs have greater speed boosts than the bigger ones, so as to not make MWD frigs too fast (which just changing frig base speed would do).
