EPTI had a 10 minute fight in my Rail Atron today that ended in a stalemate because of that. I ran into a Sabre + Cruor camp, and decided to try to kill them. The Cruor was fit with an afterburner and only had 1 web, so I was faster than he was even while webbed, allowing me to dictate range vs him. While I wasn't webbed, I was faster than the Sabre, allowing me to dictate range vs him as well. I could separate one from the other, but not long enough to kill one of them before they could fly back towards the other. While both were close together, I was unable to effectively fight them, because the Cruor could web me and would allow the Sabre to catch me. After about 10 minutes I disengaged, with a lot of heat damage on my mods in the attempt to kill them when they did isolate themselves. Maybe I didn't pilot it perfectly, but I did pilot it really damn well, they just didn't screw up enough to allow me to kill them. Pilot skill can't always allow a rock to beat paper.....

The vast majority of FCs will apply only a very basic level of analysis to whether or not they can win a fight, the "do I have more guardians than they have ships" approach, also known as the Shadow Cartel gambit. *raises wine glass* | ||

Besides that, I've heard about a big learning curve. What's the least painful way to get past it? | ||
