Except the level 2k forgies are about 5x stronger than MF picks

Their shields are insane comparitively speaking. They're almost as bad as a GB, and they have waay more DPS.

GBs have worse shields

Not really, but GBs don't have really any shield regen.

I did only measure out a few GBs lately - the now seem only to have ~120k shield bank (vs. like ~ 300k in '07).

MF 3 Forgones (lvl 2k nowadays) - lets just say as Seer you deal with them just as you deal with MF ones (shield bank wise).

The 'balls arent too bad.
Meanies are brutal until lvl 200, which by then is pointless. Seraphs....I swear, I fought 40 of em on my lvl 50 FC alt. was a 1shot kill on all my ships, and I had FC skills at 5 and Zobis with 10k shields. Cmon, thats unrealistic standards, to fight 40 seraphs.

Make other AI swarm.

SBG swarms...
Slumberchrome swarms...
Forgone swarms...
Pick swarms
vulture swarms
wattage swarms
GB swarms
Drop swarms
Rat Swarms... (i mean wut)

Sod off.
Its grand for uber high levels, or uber midlevels out for easy fast leveling, but then noobs will get ganked 24/7.
Plus the fact ive ran into like 6 BGs 2 GBs 3 wattages 4 Drops a shitton of Forgs and picks in 1 gal before, if there was bigger groups, more fun, but more death to nubs!

As an offshoot to Wattages, SAL noticed why GBs ceased to give drops.

Fixed for next patch.


(This is in this thread as it is due to their Tech level, and didn't deserve a new thread)

2 years ago i could kill 3 GBs with my zebra solo, now i can kill only 1. or they got beefed or admins didnt calculate balance sheet correctly.

GB's have low ROF. Timing NORMAL Blockers to block the damage, or Adv if you have enough reducing the damage done to you. They do roughly 10k to an Izer, 5k or less to any zerkers(IA20), about 15k to capships(no resist augs), 5k or less to LF's(not a panther).

GB's have ~175k bank, which is lower than the normal level 1500 FC/Gunner Capship.

It's the fighters that get to most people because they now are in the CC, blocking a lot of damage, so overtime, the Damage from the GB's add up. The fighters also deal laser damage, so using Hazard Ultras don't work.

Are you an average level 1500?

what do u define as average? its not like jeff sits and just makes builds in his head ALL DAY, he plays the game and figures shit out like a normal person, and is level 1521. i would call him an average 1500

He's a Gunner Dread with ACAL's and a 30b aug setup with enough Resonating gear to get 300k bank, and thats not his only char at 1500+.

An average is one who lacks any other char at 1500+, has a ship setup of under 20b, and has only been around for 2-3 unis.

what the fuck makes that average bro? by that definition theres like 5 average people in the game...
