I agree that elite missile and SB skills and/or a set up designed for inty popping would be more dangerous than my simple calculations.Kirith Kodachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12322297953184168725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-18071174303556080302008-12-07T18:23:00.000-05:002008-12-07T18:23:00.000-05:00Did you factor in any SB and missile skills?

SB pilots with Cov Ops 5, Frigate 5, Cruise Missiles 5, Target Navigation Prediction 5, and Guided Missile Prediction 5 get some impressive bonuses. They are:<BR/>- 85% higher damage per missile;<BR/>- your velocity advantage reduced to one half;<BR/>- Missile explosion radius reduced to as low as 50 m (T1 cruise missiles), which is close to your sig radius;<BR/>- effect of the signature radius of target is reduced (by 25%, if I understand how they implement that).<BR/><BR/>Add those all up and the SB can hit you hard in an inty. With T1 cruise missiles, up to 1400 with one volley (3 launchers). Higher if he can target paint you or your MWD is on.<BR/><BR/>That's all based on him catching you at rest - but that's what he's trying to do. He won't shoot you if you're zipping around, but if you pause... How fast can you get back up to speed?<BR/><BR/>Luccul.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-81042160799632677212008-12-06T16:20:00.000-05:002008-12-06T16:20:00.000-05:00I'm not sure that you want to take a risk like tha...I'm not sure that you want to take a risk like that. I know people who specifically setup their stealth bombers to killing interceptors trying to tackle them. With a purifier and 3 target painters, you will pop the interceptor in 2 volleys at the most (assuming the interceptor pilot only has level 4 interceptors). I think the setup was 2 warhead rigor rigs, 3 target painters and 2 ballistic control IIs. I'm sure the other covert ops can be fitted similarly. I do recall that it took a lot of skill points so your average pilot can't do that setup.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10989652.post-62400757469290042402008-12-06T09:40:00.000-05:002008-12-06T09:40:00.000-05:00Much ♥ for your consistently informative and usefu...Much ♥ for your consistently informative and useful posts, Kirith--this one included.Carole Pivarnikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06787775846290065794noreply@blogger.com
