Which a Curse does much better so it doesn't really have a role there. I guess it can kill frigs good. But so can frigs, destroyers, and cruisers.

Missiles are pointless.


I.... you.... what?


There's been some threads floating around where certain people have made some semi-silly comments. I think that one was made by Czyllik or some such. He's basically just taking a bunch of recent posts, modifying them to a greater or lesser degree, and posting them here.

All things considered, I find this thread ******* hilarious.

I've read them, and I ******* hate it. I can't tell which are the serious ones and which are the troll copies now D:

10/10 though, ships and modules suddenly got interesting beyond the usual daily "HOW I FIT DRAEK" threads.

Yeah, well it seems that we have thoroughly explored the idea of how to optimally fit a Drake under ideal EFT situations. The question of how to optimally fit a Drake (or any other ship) in game might need a bit of refining though. People spend entirely too much time worshiping EFT numbers and not enough understanding when they may or may not be appropriate (or even correct).

Oh no, I'm talking about all the people asking for L4 fits. Apparently google is too intimidating for some.

Say what?
Missiles will always be useful for exclusive missile ships like the Drake, and a very nice auxiliary damage source for ships like the Cyclone, Cane and Rifter.

None of those ships is the Talos, your point is invalid.

Your sec status tells me that its much closer for you to come to me than for me to come to you. We might be able to arrange to meet somewhere in between if you're really wanting a rumble. ;)

I live in EC-P8R. You should drop by with your Falcon and make me cry. I'm so terrible at this game and my tears are so easy to take and you can farm kills off of me allll daaayyyy loonnnnggg..... It might even be worth staging a few falcons in Torrinos just to make sure you can quickly replace any losses from the rats (because we both know I suck too bad to actually kill you). You can use Red Frog Freight to move them in bulk. :( :( :( :(

I noticed that too... but then I've been looking at the Lachesis pretty hard myself lately. We've got a new fleet doctrine I've been cooking up for late night Amamaketown and a Lach would just make it dandy.

When you put a long point on every ship going through a gatecamp, you get on a lot of kms.
