  Miner Improvement Ideas...  

I`m just curious to know what someone of the many ideas out there are to improve miners. Of course, the general idea is to double all the weapons on every ship lol

One idea I thought of to deal with the irritating missile spamming I combat as a miner on the fast server would be to give the M. Lakko some guns... I mean come on - what kind of ship has a .03 weapon to power ratio o.O ? It`s got the range to handle the P. class ships - it just needs the firepower.

I think just switch the shields of the lyth, and lower the pr of the lictor, better by maybe 10% the negative mods on the livid and finally, fix the Lakko for pete`s sake! At least, I think that`s what it`s called, I can`t remember as I never build it anyway.

All miner race needs is ships build rate being raised and better livid / lictor shields

Miners should receive a free Pot Noodle every time they mine 1 unit of ore.

Parasite did you readwhta i said? i'm not talking just borr spam or spam at all, i mean a viral that is stacked that has pikes borrs and chirons plus other stacks equaly powered, now go try to take 3 out of something like that

Actually Miner kick ass...many of the miner can prove it, When they stack correctly...they kick anything ;)The only thing they need is, lower pr for this dang lictor...higher build rate...and make starbase usefull, the only one who is `decent` is Kyro...at lower pr...or else it suck badly...(or during UW but still RARE aminer lauching power UW)

and Dk I actually won 2 time 3 colony last night vs viral...Yes I lost alots...yes one of them was borr spam...but I still won with 10 balanced stack :)

aminers need firepower to be able to win defensive batles not just starbases the same for offense, sucks to have m.hal has one of the best atack/PR ships aminer have >.<

playing with miners requires to just know how to stack expecially facing virals, i wanna see somebody take 3 planets from a viral with a balanced fleet using chirons borrs pikes
from +129% without knowing the fleet but knowing that they are there somewhere =P

no, not necessarily. one could just decrease the -95% kinetic shield of the g.livid to -50%.....Then this ship is still unineresting for virals....

lol species not many race`s ships can beat the borrelly... ^_^ and to beat the borrelly means it probable have to be a pretty good ship (".) which probable would end up being Reverse Engineered by the Virals making them more powerful lol

increase dammage of starbases a factor 5, and decrease their scanner rating by 4/5, then everything is fine.

(well, additionally one could think about giving em one single bloddy ship, which can beat borrelies)

Better Miner Starbases

Make Starbases a prominent feature in all aminer defense stacks

pfft, starbases, i never used them i rather see the ships have better mods and weapon adjustments, for example, chlorites range 10, lyths range 7, lictors change the mods ... like oof said who the hell made that ship?
