I fixed that for you, you for one should know I'm most comfortable in my pod. Magnus, you are so right. I fly 3 DT's just to add the extra weight to make the nix more equal in t/m.

Typically as a rule if someone tries to deepsapce on OV we just follow them and kill them out of badness, then victimise them in the next few fights as a punishment for wasting our time and wearing out our ab fingers

How fast does the Nado go now?

It would be a good deepspacer with all its missile slots.

And unless they fixed it so missiles would appear on its model, you couldn't even seen all 7 DTs. Take that, OV!

The nado now has only 5 missile slots, with the same setup that the pre-patch soon had, as well as losing a MODx slot from its time as a bomber.

As for speed, the nado-HF goes 439.3/500.88 cruise/AB (and, just for [excrement]s and giggles, using a laser loadout has a T/M of 72).

Tbf SS I wouldn't be silly enough to follow you deepspace alone. I think I would just give the deepspace chase a miss and claim I had RL shiat to do

Haha

I bet you'd beat me. Unless I was deepspacing with a full load of FFs to whore out. Which doesn't happen that often


The tensy is good at everything! Except for 1v1ing nixes in deepspace, FFs or no.

They fixed the Nado's missile invisibility bug a long time ago too.

So Spork is there ever any plans on balancing out the SOL ships so that they are forced to used mix fleets as well or are we stuck with the Tensy as the only true combat vessel for the SOL fleet?? I'd ask Istavan but not having a paid account I can't PM him.

The sols have a fairly viable invader and, for the less wise, intruder.

I really want to say the typical sol fleet of the last year or so is more diverse than the typical quant fleet (tempest, tempest, etc).

But I don't know, I havn't seen a quant fleet for reference in a bit. Maybe they all fly moons now?


Wow, a bug that was fixed. How cool. But I think I remember seeing nukes on my nado awhile ago, so I should have known that.

I've seen several Truders used recently as well as a few Ceptors and lots of Vaders are used. Virtually every Quant flies the Pest, even in the face of the Defier nerf, rather than fly a mixed fleet (which is not a knock against them, since it's the only ship they've flown for a long time now so it'd be tough to leave the familiar and try to master something new). The ones with the most mixed fleets I've seen lately are the Octs who often will have a Chrip or Raven or Dragon tosed in with their mostly Nix fleet.
