Titans still have great resists and are easily healed i know about titans stooch. and i tried armadas bth titans were better< something that needs fixed. titans do more DPS and are healed more easily. It doesn't need to be fixed. Armadas have very, very, very long range. <900 for non DM^ and i wouldnt care if range was killed, the DPS on them is just terrible for a T20, UZ drone that goes for 1b (players price i know) but they do less dps than a titan. somethings wrong there especially when it takes another skill at lvl 20 to use

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 There is nothing wrong here. Armadas are much more accurate and are excellent PvP drones. Titans miss often and are pitiful in PvP. Just because a drone costs more, doesn't mean it should "do MOAR DPS", there are other advantages it might have. If you want DPS drone, use armada infernos.

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 The Zombie Rats are still squeaking their invasion plans to each other in their infested space-cheese nests, but I would expect them to begin the scourge of our Universe in about a week.
As normal, they'll continue to spread their plague of undeath for about two weeks after they arrive.

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 Yeah, contrary to popular belief, armada ambushes are NOT invisible to ai xD even when they don't shoot, they can get popped pretty easily. I made a thread about armada ambush a while ago about giving them just enough elec to power their shield. How are you supposed to lay an 'ambush' for someone when you have to wait until they are on top of you to drop drones. No point to this really, just addressing a personal vendetta vs. ambushes

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 Quote: Ambush is more of a burst dps drone, inferno deals sustained DPS. indeed they are, but a 3 gen ops prowess pax with a good energy, and being energy tractored can lay a group several times, each time taking knight down like 1/4-1/2 depending on the spawn.... its insane

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 andy gough wrote: tbh ambushes rape in PvP or PvAi when laid with a stealth ship Id like you to ambush someone with drones when they arent at war with you. There is no way to mark a target for drones in pvp so your ambush drones need to be provoked in some way like by the target shooting you.

Re: Plagued Rat Invasion: Update 10.12 Yeah, or you have to aggro them, which usually doesn't end well.
