lol well anyone that HAS to spam that many skirms will not achieve victory... Skirms do their job really well soaking up LRF dps relative to the other races. The disciples and cobalts have "paper tissue armor" vs. LRF's, the skirmishers have "wooden armor" vs. LRF's. Takes longer to take them out, you suffer few losses using them, so the net credit gain is in your favor as a vasari player. Its a built in racial advantage, and they are well worth the cost.

About skirmishes, they cost more because with thier cheap upgrades they become the best LF in the game. They also do way better massed damage then the other LF's as is, having a higher base damage, meaning even better damage as the upgrades progress. You don't see how good the vasari light weapons are because their phase missiles are even better(and are spammed a lot more). The vasari have all the best weaponry, which makes sense. Just build up a horde of 50 +

[quote who="XubXub" reply="6" id="3111253"]While I like the leveling speed of the titans, considering they're so damn strong, and can't lose levels... Yeah, maybe only taking about 50% more exp to get to level 10 than a capital ship is a bit easy. [/quote] The early levels are the most overpowered. Gaining a titan level with only 500 xp is really fast. Early XP gain needs to be nerfed, late game xp gain seems quite fine as it is. If the 50% XP increase yo

Titans nearly match LRF speed in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Having a titan being able to keep pace with a fleet of frigates means that LRF now truly have little military value in multiplayer. This will force simplified game play which will reduce sins replayability over the long term. Since LRF won't be built, there is no need to build flak, and then there is no need to really build LF, except to counter a carrier spam (which isn't really a viable opener to begin with). This overall negates the usefulness of all the frigates in the

I need no justification for how I spend my time, I take responsibility for everything I choose in my life, that is how I am. I don't allow any sort of delusion to come into my life and I headhunt weakness and fear in others around me. I keep my motives pure and my focus sharp. I play sins because I enjoy it, and I especially enjoy playing the other intelligent players who are on ICO (this is where the "high intellectual part comes in"). Also, your creative limitati

Reply to Boarding Parties ability should inflict damage to capitalships and titans in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

Its abilities are good for support, say for stealing some nice vasari overseers/miners, or some advent guardians. Since this ship can't take over/take out a titan production facility is use in the early game as a pre titan counter means that is almost completely useless. I would say that if you have marines inside the enemy ship it should do more then just do a high damage per second to the ship. It should have some other random effects that might stun the ship, slow it

Reply to [Suggestion] Factions should have weaknesses in Sins Rebellion Sins Forums

There never is a guarentee of victory unless a titan comes with an I win button. Yet that I win button could be prevented by a player putting proper pressure on their opponent so that they can't build the titan with the I win button. the debate rages on... For the record, Karlbar99, I consider the idea of giving the vasari the capability of moving their starbases to another gravity well to be extremely OP. I don't care how the developers attempt to balance it
