  1. I've got a few rather relevent questions about the new ship Mimesis, and its ability called "Scramble".

    FAQ about this ship can be found here: "http://www.bigpoint.com/darkorbit/board/threads/new-ships-faq.118482/"

    So from what I understand, you could theoretically keep this ability going for much longer then 10 seconds, which would be the maximum amount of time without any shield replenishments. My first thought regarded the tech ability "backup shield", but obviously the real interesting part here is whether or not SAB ammunition works in combination with this ability.

    Basically my quesiton are, how do things like "backup shield tech ability", "SAB ammunition" and "aegis shield repair" work in combination with this Scramble ability? Could you potentionally keep this ability running forever?

    Also in addition, this ability states that enemies have an 80% chance of missing your ship. Does this stack with pilot-bio "evasive maneuvers" and standard miss percentage, or is it a flat 80% ? Also does this affect lasers only or are rockets included aswell? To me these questions are very relevant, especially considering the existance of "AIM-02 CPU

    Which brings me to my last question, does AIM-02 CPU work against this ability? Could you reduce the chance of your lasers missing by 50% by using this CPU against Memisis Scramble ability?


    I'd be very greatful for any help on this one,

  3. Sorry for double post, but still no answer on this one, isn't there someone who can answer these questions?
     
  4. Watching this thread as well. Whoever is creating all this new stuff should at the very least include information about it so players know whether it's worth getting or not and all the pros and cons.

    That ability is op.... just tested it with few clanmates...

    Yes, they used everything against it.... As long as the mimesis can keep the scramble skill running, he wont be killed unless u overpower him with 5 or more ships, or have a very good luck.
     
  8. its really hard because for keep scramble up you must have low shield and keep to sab enemy, I believe that 2 smb and 2-3 shoots of 3030 rockets from 2 players can take down scramble. SMB you don't feel in ring but in mimesis you are mostly in drill to do dmg and sab up your shield, if you have 400k hp smb doing 80k on your shield what is alot since you have low low shield high dmg confi.
    However 10% shield down per sec is to much, its easy to outplay 2-3 vs mimesis I think it should be somewhere between 5-10% so you can fly more shield and don't lose scramble by SMB.

    I tryed PVE side of scramble. 20% dmg, seprom, alienhuntere and some sucide confi so you can easy sab back shield like 60-70k in full dmg confi, you are barely able kill blaighted kristallon with sab when shield is down use x3 and start to shoot next before scramble is down, thats why think 10% is to much, maybe 8% so you can do 2 shoots more, however when you don't have scramble you doing around 15% less dmg than cyborg.

    Overall, I don't think it wurth 50€, yes you can get some 1vs1 and kill people on surprise couse don't know how to deal with him, my advice would be try kill it without use emp and ish on before it use scramble, than you have 6 sec window and smb do take turn it off and this 6 sec you should not feel if you are cyborg because he doing 15% less dmg than you, maybe some fly away when he use emp or ish and you win easy as cyborg vs mimesis.

    mimesis can just fall back a little and sab his own pet if he cant sab his enemy because enemy uses emp/ish....
     
  10. its debatable, if enemy use green ammo fps drop a little, since game is really good optimized even on 3D and pet movement is crazy sometimes is really hard to click own pet
