BTW, please remember that the new Caldari T3 BC, the Naga, will have 8 siege missile launchers!

Seeing as it might be used as an anti-drake ship, I dare you to imagine the torpedo spam.


This effect would then in turn spoil the beautiful new nebulae, and really who would want that?

+1 tone down them missile effects down a notch,

TA on wis: "when we have a feature that is its own functional ecosystem of gameplay then hooks into the greater ecosystem of EVE as a whole, and it provides good replayability."

Nice find. I was about to say S/AAMs. You beat me to it. I can further elaborate in that this blast pattern is most relevant as a proximity fused detonation, as direct hits are typically pretty much sure kills. In the case of a proximity detonation, its the rod fragments ripping through the aircraft that causes the damage, rather than heat/explosive/plasma damage.

Cone-shaped detonation patterns are popular as focused energy is more effective for penetrating armor plates, ala anti-tank missiles and some IEDs employed by certain radical groups.
