Eagle Vs. Viper= Death, quickly.

[TehGems]

Not going to sit here and complain but, if you come across a Viper in your Eagle you better have some help or your better run. I lost my first PvP the other day to one of these after it melted my A3 shields in about 3 seconds. Viper means run to me without a wingman, and if theres more than one we are both leaving quickly. I have yet to even drop the shields on one of these things let alone do any hull damage.


I guess a Viper is 142 k. well spent, I doubt any thing below a Vulture can kill one of these things assuming a decent pilot is at the controls. Have fun in your 142 k. easy button, I will keep trying in my Eagle, lol.


I am gonna combat fit a Cobra and see how that works out, definitely need bigger shields and a stronger hull now that everyone and their mother is flying around with medium multicannons.

That. Was. Brilliant!

+1 Rep!

Made me chuckle!

I see what thou didst, there!

Yes a WING of Eagles, even two, will destroy a Viper reasonably quickly. But only a suicidal maniac would attack a wing of Eagles in a lone Viper.

Is this the birth of a new copy pasta?

 

[Katabasis]

LOL

And a new Elite meme is born.

Eagle vs. anything other than a Sidewinder = death quickly (for the Eagle)

 

[TehGems]

So now the Eagle is essentially obsolete, why fly that when you can has the same ship with medium guns? Because you are VERY POOR! Ahahahahahah! Even in Elite, the poor are crapping on the very poor, lol. Run Eagle pilots, run and buy a Hauler until a Viper can be had.

OP = R+1.

thanks for a smile.

 

[scorpyon]

Oh please, just because it destroys an inferior ship, it doesn't mean it is an easy button. It's a MEDIUM fighter mate, not supposed to be fighting tiny ships anyway.

Suicidal maniac reporting in!

I would love to try.

I haven't lost a ship for so long its starting to smell funny.

I would love to try my hand in taking out a wing of eagles and if i fail... Wel at least i get that new ship smell back

 

[Norwyn]

Well done. Here, have +rep.

 

[PotatoOverdose]

This travesty must no stand! We cannot let the rich kids and no-lifers in their vipers triumph over the honest working man in his eagle!

Nerf the IWIN button! Nerf the Viper!

 

[TehGems]

Yes a WING of Eagles, even two (ok maybe not), will destroy a Viper reasonably quickly. But only a suicidal maniac would attack a wing of Eagles in any lone ship (that costs less than 50k).


Once again, I AM NOT CALLING FOR A NERF OF ANY KIND. You bunch of not so thick hulled Vipers... (but your shields are pretty good actually)
