I hate you, why do you put missiles on Gallente ships?

So they can paint their ships red.

How did you Veterans start?

True, but really... How does it make any sense at all? Why add a weapon system that is not affiliated with that race at all? Does this happen in other hulls that I'm not aware of?

Look at some of the T2 Amarr ships. They use missiles too and are a deviation from the "lazor" systems that Amarr ships are famous for.

edit: it's done for "flavor" reasons. Blink

Yeah but for the Amarr missiles are pretty much there secondary weapon. That's not the case for Gallente.

No, they don't...Amarr doesn't add missiles to their ships.

The Khanid add missiles to Amarr ships.

Then why on the T3 cruiser do they have sub a system dedicated to missiles?

Because cap, and you know how poorly intelligent gallente engineers are to put the highest cap consuming guns with the highest cap consuming rep system who absolutely needs MWD to do some shït. Lol

Poorly designed ships with poor chances of being good or competitive at any thing in EVE, we can safely doubt about their capacity to keep their own frontiers with such sucky fleets.

Amarr also have at least 1 drone boat.

Minmatar use drones extensively.

Caldari have t1 ships dedicated to ewar.

Gallente use missiles as a tertiary weapon.


Not saying I support it, but your reasons aren't really accurate. Tristan and especially the recons need better hardpoint options and bonuses.
