You're not stuck in 1 area with missiles.  You can pew pew behind rocks, you can pew pew over hills, you can pew pew over bushes, you can even pew pew when you cant even see your target!

sure it is not viable, that's why you see us using trojars....

idiot.

Troiar is an unique Ewar bot. Its hurt to any intakts by minimum 2 way :
dps : Try 2 t4 rocket laucher on it ... its really hurts
ewar : try 2 t2-t4 neuts or even energy drainers ... its really hurts

But at all yes troiar isn't a solo pwnmobile...

This game is about group! thats why its called MMO and not single player... think in bigger size mate, not just me and noone else ...

I never said I play solo. I just don't want to be stuck playing base attack/defense and from what I have heard and seen going out small team roaming in a couple of assaults looking for PvP will just end up with us dead not able to choose when to fight and when to flee because of assaults slow speed and the E-war range. Good to know that Troiar is viable.

Sure I can sit there waiting thinking about large size warfare with my mech but that won't mean *** if I log in and there are no people or nothing planned for right then. It just happens once in a while. So i feel E-war is the way to go right now.

How the hell can a waspish fire 300 meters? missiles are 150m with no fall-off I would need 200% range modifier. Is that even possible?

Heat IX missiles : 180m range

+30% Basic robotics lvl 6

+21% Propellant mixing lvl 7

+10% Standard range extender

With these, a waspish can reach 300m easy.

What makes you think you can pvp with just ewar gang in most situations?

Even we bring mechs to deal with things ewar cant.

Seriously, most people die to our ewar gangs because they have zero clue how to fight.

For example.

Last time Hun visited our island with 8 ewar, we drove them off using 6 ewar.
We lost 2, they lost 5. 

This show there is a HUGE gap of actual skill and organization, and not equipment or bot balance.

So my point stands: Learn2pvp

At the end of vid: Mech/ewar group beating the living carp our of -CS- assault bot gang.

L2PvP

-waspish has a missile range bonus. it can fire its small missiles at high ranges with that.

-for using the trojar in roaming, you need nothing special in "EWAR". Special OP robot control on rank2 or 3 is standard for any build, and thats the only prerequisite

-all about roaming in bots is i high lvl in basic robotics, nav 10  and every locking extension.

if you've mastered a waspish, you can also use the trojar.

am i right if i say, that trojar driver there in that vid is very unskilled with missiles? 25% of his shots flying off the sky....

Nothing in E-war skills? isn't the point to be able to do long distance lock scrambles, demobs and some damage in between?

No the point is the speed. You can specialize in ewar if you want but that's not the only viable way to use ewar. Seriously can't anyone in your Corp give you the bots101?

I will be very disappointed with the development team if this statement of "nerfing the speed" of e-war is true.

Any e-war group that is not fed intel from spies can be ran down like dogs and killed, end of story.

If you have a group of Fast movers who are fed intel on your positions and attempts to head them off.  They can simply just run ramped avoiding you.

They arn't designed to engage in head on engagements with other groups. (outside e-war category) its simply hit and run, while attempting to grab stragglers.
