Inertial Damper

[Cheese]

why is inertial damper an emitter?

it doesnt do anything that would classify it as an emitter...

 

its an addon, why isnt it in that category?

 

 

in addition, noone that isnt a lanc will buy it.

its available to all, which is good, but its really only worth something for lancs.

keeping it an emitter will mean noone can get it without sacrificing something like xradar.

as a result of this, i cant even think of -1- lanc that has it.

 

Can we please reclassify inertial damper as an addon?

 

this isnt really that big of a request, either

Presumably it was classified as an emitter because of balance reasons. Need to have enough variety in each of the categories.

i have inertial damper in atleast 5 of my ships! Fail thread!

It emits inertial dampening, are you really this dense? It's one of the most popular emitters, too.

 

It's now my policy to ignore posts which misuse the size tag.

[Corey]

i have inertial damper on all 3 of my ships, notice how i said all 3? lol, I'm poor.

[»D1st0rt]

So you want us to make it not be an emitter for the precise reason we made it an emitter? nothx

[p man]

I use it on my jav

Infact almost everyone has it on wb/jav

[CRe]

I had it on my lanc setup.

[vetta64]

I have inertial on 7 out of 8 ships and the only reasons I dont have it on 8 is because I cant afford it yet.

$5 says anyone who makes this statement doesnt use xradar, in which case theyre easy pickings for cloakers

 

 

did i mention i have xradar on 8 ships?

 

 

i also lol'd at this

Cloakers don't bother me, but even to this day people fail as a team to check X-Radar and let people just stroll into their flag rooms uncontested. And then they also fail to put on any antiwarp at all so the cloakers can leave undetected with their flags... but ultimately it's a team's choice if they want to be that full of fail.

[Cheese]

thats because there isnt enough emitter slots.

 

either because there isnt enough slots, or there are just higher priorities than xradar, aw, or damper

 

 

and guess who has the power to do something about it =]

I think you've entirely missed the point of there being a limited number of emitters per ship.

[Emit]

obv some people don't need xradar because they know how to make use of multifire in base zz

[Kilo]

but they don't know how to make use of their brains unfortunately so they forget to hold down gun key lawl

I put inertial damper on all of my ships. Extra mobility = win. Plus the reduced screen shaking helps.

[Cheese]

this explains why % of anyone in center doesnt have xradar

[Syrith]

Energy scanner provides more benefits than x radar.

Cloakers aren't much of a problem since they're weakened.

[Kilo]

except when they steal your flags

[Syrith]

Space mines are an adequate solution to that, along with antiwarp. Unfortunately, most pubs are too incompetent to have any ships with those capabilities. Also, it's kinda hard to steal flags from someone who doesn't know you're there while flagging in center (unless they're camping).

[Kilo]

no one uses antiwarp either, read up

space mines don't last forever

[»D1st0rt]

diamonds are forever, maybe you should drop those instead

[Kilo]

the newbs would love that

[Syrith]

I use antiwarp when I detect a cloaker in a base (while I'm not lancing... but then I'd see them on radar and prevent them from passing), either that or I mine up the place. Space mines can be easily replaced.
