[SC] UNOFFICIAL: DarkOrbit Revealed Archive

i was a battleray farmer in 5-3 but apparently people had problem with that aswell so i cant help but think forum will always have people against both option

 

Those players already exist in fairy large numbers and have done forever, the're out in every spaceball collecting the cargos etc.

If people using emp/cloak and slowdown mines doesn't happen on your server 'so much yet' then consider me very jealous and surprised because every player I've met on gb2 or ge1 knows the combo.

If the Mimesis is never going to stand a chance in a 1v1 vs a goliath of similar skill then it would be unfair not to give it an escape of some sort. What's the point in making a ship that just dies to everything and kills nothing - fair enough if it was some cheap little credit ship but I doubt that it will be.

What should be done is that there should be a good reward for killing it instead of ship rewards just being based off how much HP each ship has. Then when players do kill one they feel rewarded for doing so since it looks like its going to be one of the harder ship to actually kill.

 

enmpcloak is indeed very popular but gladly not many run with all possible and empcloak is easy to counter too

 

Or Mimesis players will use SAB

 

I bet shields will drain under that effect like on wheel or even faster so its gonna be useless most of time as sab cannot compete like that...

SPECULATION: Mimesis gonna be nerfed after players get it as an OP ship.

 

To be honest what i like is the fact that goliath will still remain the most powerful ship yet, while these other ships will just be more tactical, like aegis etc.
PS. I remember people used to say same thing about aegis that is OP cannot be killed etc , but goliath will most of the time beat 1v1 with no real trouble.
I suspect this new ship will be the same, and about the ability i think they will have a cool down of 20 min or so like on the other goliath ships which makes them not as useful as they seem.
Anyways we gotta wait and see ,nevertheless better then nothing. i just hope we get more players in dead servers thats all.

 

As far as I see it, any UFE can make a ship OP with the right configuration and gear.

So with double boosters on everything, and top UFE gear, I can't find any reason not to find this ship OP, especially during spaceball.

The Scramble ability is probably going to be too OP with drill. Insta-shield, EMP, PLD-8, combined with Scramble, Drill, and UFE gear, you won't even get hit and you can just annihilate people very quickly with 50% damage increase from drill and scramble, and then you can just teleport out of there and run with your remaining 25% ship speed increase, wheel, slowdown mines, and ice/deceleration rockets.

I understand Darkorbit wants new content into this game, but in all honesty those Mimesis abilities just don't suit this game at all. We can barely catch up to people using surgeons, pusats, and spearheads, let alone a ship that can teleport away now. And the 80% miss chance on scramble is just gross.

So really, the Mimesis is just contributing to this game by being another useless "spearhead" ship that people will box and run in, and not actually be used as a fighting tactical ship. Maybe it will be used to pop people off of cubikons-but is it really worth the ammo and effort? Maybe to UFEs, because we can just buy the ammo back.

The Tartarus, however, is a good ship concept. Especially with demon drone designs on your ship, because now you actually have a use for those designs and it would be amazing in group fights, and even better against spectrum abilities.

 

Off-topic, I apologize for my inexperience, but does the demon design really increase the HST launcher damage?

 

I was interesting into knowing this too. Never used the Demon drone designs, I am just as curious as you are about the rocket launcher damage.

 

At least this is official info, but it doesnt say anything about hst so i believe it dont affect hst. ofc you can test it out yourself

 

However the HST does fire "Rockets" so I would say it should have an affect on them too. Only thing to do is to manually fire the HST with the design on and then with it off and see if it really does change (remember to account for the "miss" in the figures) you could even fire it with only 1 rocket loaded to see for sure. I do not have a full set of these otherwise I would test it for you.

 

Thanks for the info.

I won't be able to test the design soon, because I won't have it soon, and I am interested to know just in case.
