where are shock ships?

[CtMurphy]

Hmmm, I do think the shock needs a wee bit of tweaking.

The stun domes don't seem to do very much, and as a storm pilot I've been on the recievin end of those speed actuators, they're effect is reduced on blasters because it does recharge twice per shot. It still made my blasters and other systems charge faster but the blasters shouldn't be recharging twice, it halves the effect.

Also the aggrobeacons are about as usefull as the tank taunts, which isn't a compliment. You should change aggrobeacons so that they have a defined area of effect that a pilot can visably see, and any mantis pulled into it before it's destroyed will be caught by that aggro beacon.

I don't entirely agree with the damaging stun dome idea though. Could you put a sub system on it that adds a small stun effect to the blasters? Sooo when it's activated the blasters will also stun the enemy for as long as the sub system is active but it will also raise the energy cost of each shot by 50% (if your blasters already use 30 energy/shot then with teh active new sub-system it'll rise to 45 energy/shot) but it'll have a stun effect on the enemy and although a small effect of slowing down the enemy buy 1/5, it'll be constant.

about the shock ships missing in draconis, then are they slowly showing up, and aggrobeacon is fast from reload so it isn't bad, i can just say that aggrobeacon makes it easyer for me to get around between mantis, and stun dome can make the difrence between losing and winning (belive me) but about the draco ships, then do i know more people who got shocker in draconis, it was only in the begining they where almost gone

Now we got about 6 or more shockers in draconis and there are still comming more shockers, the problem is the preice, the preice is the reson for that it toke me soo long to get enought for a shocker with all rare items on, and the reson for that the most got sniper, storm or tank is because they need a good greinding ship first befor buying a pvp ship, shock isn't good at greinding, it almost sucks at that point, but in pvp is it verry usefull

just wait, they will get more.

You got to be kidding me,

you find 6 shock ships much?

I bet there are 100 snipers, 100 storms around 75 tanks etc.

maybe a little less, but still there are many more snipers, storms and tanks.

they are still comming, as i said befor they have to get enought for the shocker as they first buy as the second or third ship, sniper storm and tank is normaly the first ship players are buying. that's why the shockers are so few, and now where draconis got 1 cq planet also then is it sure that the shockers slowly will show up, and i spetn ower 1 month just to complete my ^^, and it's fun to pot parsecs in it

ive got to admit for what ive seen a stun can do also watched pvps utube stuff like that and its crazy a good shock pilot solo or in sq deadly if tactics are used a stun can wreak havoc on ships there was one vid i seen this guy was trying to run from a tank he was getting away this shock player went passed and boom pm went on stunned the player tank caught up and it was really funny but overall i think shock ships like the engi is a support ship

it is a support ship, it's the silent killer with massive powers.

the shock ship can keep a squad better alive then any other ship. You really want a shockship in those event missions.

you have failed to reilize pbhuh like most people that the shock ship is wonderfukl against mantis because of three things...speed, becon, dome. i can solo two sol harvs with a sol shock ship using those 3 things.

dont worry, im getting a drac shock ship soon
