I think that drake needs a boost! It's really annoying when 2 Battleships can kill u caught in a belt by vaga or sabra. |

lol nice joke thread.  But in case this is serious, just shutup... now... now that the Myrmidon is going to be nerfed, the Drake is the most overpowered battlecruiser in the game. |

I'm fecking serious. It's unfair that my drake could be killed by 2 Battleships. It's unfair that my tank could be broken with 5 vagabonds! |

While this is an excellent joke thread, I actually think that all missile ships should have their damage bonus either changed to pure "damage" or rate of fire, like turret ships do. Hurricane doesn't have a 5% damage bonus to the explosive damage of ammo per level like the Drake has towards kinetic missiles.
I wouldn't mind that the "choose your damage type" mantra actually applied without losing a bonus on many of the ships. |

Maybe the OP should fly some other BC's first. The drake still has no chance of killing any of the other comparable BC's. Myrm still outtanks it. Cane goes too fast. Harbinger...nope, even though it's amarr.
Edit: The myrm "nerf" isn't really too much of a nerf anyway. Besides, if anything, you just get dmg a bit closer to that of a drake. |

That would be ok if there won’t be t2 missiles with 4 damage types. Make pure damage bonus and leave only 2 versions of t2 missiles with kinetic and thermal/explosive damage. |

I don't want even try. I spent too mush efforts to get drake's boost that I can't switch to another BC and whine again for boost |

Remove 2 launchers give it a -5% ROF bonus instead of kin dmg, that could work. |

drake does need a major buff, trade the tanking bonus for ROF and make its damage bonus all types. Ferox can be the tank and Drake purely gank. |

well there is the side effect of making HACs less worth while but the cerb would tank better and be faster. though im sure the HAC lobby is against BCs out DPSing their ships just the same as the AF lobby doesnt want to see Destroyers get any major improvements. but a balls to the walls dps machine BC would be good for caldari since well, the Ferox is lackluster in that department even with guns. |

I'd like to see that, although I think that might be a little to good as being able to fit HAMs and getting a RoF and damage bonuses and having all your cap left for tanking as well as having a lot of mids for EWAR could be some serious pain o_O |

I agree with that. If however they changed the resist bonus to RoF and left the crap kinetic bonus  . |

Umm... I've tanked four battleships in my drake without going pop.. I was using an active tank which lasted infinitely. Using two small booster 2's, 1 booster amp 2, and Em + therm + Invuln hardener 2's.. along with three cap rechargers in lows and a pdu. |

Switch bonus to 5% RoF bonus and 10% missile velocity per level. Maybe Caldari players will finally STFU with "We don't have a damage boat".
Also, I will be able to feed on carebear tears "Nooooooooooo my mission boat!!!". |

Edited by: Dubious Drewski on 02/11/2007 19:27:53Damn, I knew this was going to start happening. Well if you're going to nef the Drake's tank, at least give it better damage to compensate. A normal strength tank, but with the current low dps would just kill me inside.  I would become one of the whiners I pity so much on these boards.  -edit- But I honestly think the Drake doesn't need to be touched. I mean, really. What the hell's the matter with it? Nothing. It's a great defensive boat. It's got character. Take away its tanking and you take away what makes it unique from EVERY OTHER ship in the game. I don't want to play a game where every ship, weapon, module and pilot are the same. Gray Goo gameplay is bad!!! |
