Xolve posted:depends what you call 'ridiculously expensive'. The side-effect free bonuses are well worth the investment, and are cheaper than capital books anyway. Mindflood is that good it's worth it without the additional skills anyway.

Zephyrine posted:A good start. Now if they could only balance boosters so a majority of them weren't completely undermined by crippling side effects. E: thanks phone posting Laaaaate as gently caress. Uh, train the booster side effect suppression/reduction skills and you literally can run standard boosters with no side effects. Also boosters own and if you can't see the benefit of increasing the effectiveness of your ship/weapons/defense by 20% or more then I don't know what to tell you. dialhforhero fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Jun 8, 2016 |

boosters are really cheap and really good and you should definitely use them. the drawbacks mean that people dont just pop boosters for literally everything you have to balance their effectiveness. you should use synth for everything because its dirt cheap and less than a million for a few percent bonus. its definitely worth it

Not so much now. There's basically only two uses for Phoenixes now: * gimmicky 300km cruise fits for killing an undefended Astrahus * gimmicky armor-tanked RTL lordsservant fits for solo pvp For general purpose dread work -- both anti structure and anti capital -- sell it and get a Naglfar. There's no point in using XL torps when a carrier can sigtank them.

There's basically only two uses for Phoenixes now: Not to mention that while the capital sized missiles are pretty resilient to smartbombs. The HAW launchers for the phoenix fires regular subcap torpedoes and so are very vulnerable to smartbombing. Why is smartbombing missiles even a thing in the first place?

Quafe Zero is the silliest drug. How does a capsuleer even use Quafe? Does he inject space cola directly into his vein from his capsule, or is he enjoying a fresh beverage inside, literally holding a can of Quafe Zero in his hand? I mean the picture looks a little bit like those sports bottles for drinking when running/biking. I could imagine a pilot grabbing a bottle of space cola and then carefully putting the nozzle-thing inside his mouth, so he can drink refreshing Quafe Zero, without accidentally swallowing his ectoplasm.

I think its more like a can of Dew: you pop the top, pound it in one gulp, scream "arrrrrgggghhhh rrrraaaaawwwwwwrrrrrr" while you crush the can against your forehead, then toss it in a random direction while tearing off your shirt.

Let's face it, the average GSF pilot's capsule goo is probably 50% cheeto dust by volume already. A little space soda isn't going to do any more harm.

Also X-instinct, crash, and blue pill with some implants literally make Tengus essentially bait tanked Drakes in Assault Frigate signature sized hulls with Cerberus DPS. They are on point as gently caress.
