Meh, FGS is slow.
Anything that's slow and uses close-range weaponry will find it hard to bring inevitable death to a non-combat target that can actually move, or stand against a combat opponent using a faster ship and longer range (read: pretty much anything else) weaponry.
It's a rock/paper/scissors build. Put it against a fat, slow target and it will dump all over it. Take it against a long-range FDL and it will get dumped on. But an OP gank boat it is not, either way
Buff frags plox.

Isn't that the very core definition of skill?
"Know what you got, what you can do and how it performs in situations.
Also know when to run."
I just don't see the skill in it, all I ever see is vids of them attacking trader or pve builds and assassinating them. That's just 'target selection', never seem to see them used for anything else than the cheesy gank.
I suppose it might be fun a couple of times, but is a regular easy kill fun? I certainly doubt it's much fun for the mark who's often dispatched in seconds; a while some of you might say ' they were only pve lords ' its not going to encourage many to come back for another go in open is it?
While I can agree on some of the things you have said, I did go against 2 anacondas, a vette and a python. That is not a gank by any means.
The two Condas escaped well, and this experience will hopefully encourage them to improve and upgrade in order to have exciting gameplay in open.
As far as the python goes, he might be put off of open by this, or maybe he'll think twice before pursuing a fleeing wanted cmdr that just made two anacondas low-wake.

Well your vid is one of the least 'gankiest' iv'e seen with these weapons, but I feel any weapon that can put out such staggering dps in the right circumstances is just too open to abuse for me.
I think you just misinterpret what i said and ripped it out of context.
Not really , your claim of skill I equated to 'target selection' as other than getting close and knowing when to run they don't seem to take much skill, even the 'fixed' variants seem very easy to hit with under 100m.
