I assume, from a vet's point of view, that Cavalry Raven is meant:

Dual AB/MWD (can't remember) making your ship travel faster than your torps - starting at a long distance, you could launch your torps while approaching - delivering an insta-popping alpha strike when they all hit together :D

I feel like this should be back in game. New Player Experience demands it!

I left for about 1 year after they fixed alot of things.

Came back I had 10 frigs with siege launchers loaded with torps.

Went with a corp and during the attack they noticed my frig was shooting torps.

Well I could not reload them once they was empty and once I turned them off they stayed off.

So had my fun with my 10 frig shooting torps.

They are all gone the way of the doe doe now. 8-(

So sad.....................................

Must have been cruises... you could fit 1 cruise missile into a standard launcher, for torps you needed heavy launchers.

But Cruise-Kestrels and Torp-Caracals. :-/

I miss having to set my alarm clock to 3am to make sure I didn't lose any skill-training time.
And learning skills so I can learn skills that help me learn other skills faster.


I don't miss that.. I do miss the danger of traveling into null, though - now jump bridges have dulled a lot of what made null/low fun.

I miss the days pre-stacking nerf...
8xheat sink geddon just obliterating anything.
Dual propulsion? Try 8xmwd scorp, you could cross solarsystems without actually warping.
Ofcourse the 15 drones on a dominix was just wonderfull.

Can't say I miss the full low racks of stabs, or having no overview tho..

- I miss the old NOS - please give it back Twisted
- My 80km torpedo sniper nano Raven - BLAAM - you're dead!
- Does nobody miss Harvester super mining drones?
- Mines (laying a nice mine-field on every nullsec entry gate)
- Many nullsec alliances just shot the entry stargates before downtime, so that the system couldn't get invaded
- AEO doomsday
- Missiles managed to hit anything regardless of speed, size, no matter what (fire and forget) with full damage
- 55% invuln field II's
- Railguns used to be better then autocannons
- Gallente were the kings of pvp

I can only hope that some of those make a comeback..

Aye when 7k Vagabonds and ishtars were the king of small gang pvp And every caldari pilot cried sweet carebear tears. Was a special time.

Eve was in true pioneering days for sure.

U had to watch out for just about any ship. Shuttles was the only ships you did not feel threaten in 0.0

I miss the endless bickering in 0.0 when there was little to no blueballing (WHY OW WHY DID YOU HAVE TO ADD ALLIANCES TO A GAME WHICH LORE IS ALL ABOUT CORPORATIONS)

And well mines Twisted still have anaconda mines to look at occasionally.

And remember 0.0 regions having at most 2 stations and 1 titan.

Not to forget all the gate bookmarks because you couldnt warp to 0

I miss mines. I remember loading up on them, leaving a station and dropping them all in a blob outside the station exit and then watching the fireworks! Ahh it was good 'ol fun.

I miss when you could put as many damage modules on your ship as you wanted with no stacking penality. (1 shot kill.)

I miss 0.0 when you actually had to drive around instead of all the jump drives and crap like now.

But most of all I miss the old null/low sec when people used to fight 1v1 or 3v3 types of fights.

Raven:

cruise or torpedo t2 launchers with t2 ammo + neuts
4 multispectral jammers or racial jammers, sensor booster, warp disruptor/second sensor boosters
either 2x 1600mm plates or warp core stabs + 2-3 BCU


t2 ammo on raven was really imbalanced, it flew really far and really fast and could hit cruisers with almost full damage. A good team of 4-5 ravens with good teamspeak communications could win vs force 4 or 5 times larger. It was really ridicilous, Ravens totally owned everything, 600(?) dps at 300km, insane volley damage(this was when all ships had less hp), insane jamming power, Javelins totally destroyed support with 1 or 2 volleys...

I miss spending 1-2h probing down someone in a deep safe only to have him warp away while you where getting into position for the warp in because he finally saw your probes on the scanner (because you couldn't destroy them/pull them in)
