Forum Topic about this ship |
| Lou of East from West: |
so if 3 destroyers attack it, it will be killed but it will have 23 lp on moment of kill (but 2 destroyers will not kill it)???!!!
|
| darklim: |
3 Destroyer is better than this
|
| Tofu: |
This ship is much to powerful against fighters. |
| We are Bjork: |
It is only supposed to have the effect against class 2, like interceptors only mod class one, dont know if the modifier is correctly written for that or not, perhaps Jam can tell me. |
| JaM: |
it is an original invention.
So it covers 1 of the BON (Balanced, Origanl, Needed)
"it can only add lp when fighting in its own class."
it should be: it can only add lp when fighting against the similar class of the enemy.
That is not possible with the current battlesyntax.
Interceptors can only mod the class one because it modifies class 1 ships and that can only be happening in the class 1 vs class 1 battle. If there is a class 1 vs class {2,3,4} battle the enemy don't have class 1, so nothing will be modified.
This ship is a nightmare to class 1. (undestructable against: fighter, interceptor, bulkfighters) and very effective against eagles.
A better idea is to have a ship that will add his own attack when it is hit.
But the spacetrace site is a little slow, so I can't invent something like that. |

So..... this will survive a class1 fleet, but it can only attack once in each class battle. Basicallly.......... this is just a survival ship. Nothing to win pts by rite? |
| Knight of Truth: |
Note the ''a special defensive class 2 ship'' part in the description. |

Is good that you ask Blackmagic...so bad that some noobs(which is not bad), newbies SPAMMERS in fact, answer you like knowing how to play the game more than you or the others.
Basically if you are followed by the syntax it hasn't been fixed yet...even that i haven't fought it, in theory it should happen that vs c1s like fighters, interceptors, etc. but not bulk fighters. Even so you can build just 250 of this ships, so against fighters you will win just 250 points luckily. Against is also bad, so there is wrong Jam's argument.
Now if we follow the description of the phrases it is even worst, because if it has the ability only at c2's sub-battle then you loose points against c1 of course. 200 fighters win vs 10 blobs.
And of course is a defensive ships but is created to give you points, it's like a flamingo on c2. if you have 10 destroyers and 1 blob against 11 destroyers you will win points for sure in that battle if your blob isn't attacked at last.
Because you are sacrificing a blob of 20 mp to destroy 3 of the enemy's destroyer which is 24 mp.
Also if you see the link at the beginning you realize, that not matter which description you follow it can be easily destroyed by ships with abilities of destroying of modifying c2s like Apollos.

Admin, why isn't the blob available for production?
it's only available in a planet 9999999999.9 million years away!!!
this a great defensive ship, there's no other like it in ST....i'm sure that if more players used this ship, they would feel the same... |
| MicroJak: |
I don't like the name, I wish people would be more inventive. |

If you want the ship to be researchable you have to take it first from those planets and play with them...
What do you think, that the other player haven't traveled all those LY? go there first!
Greetings, Rubens. |
| linux666: |
yes rubens, that's what i've been doing...i had a few battles using the blob, and i can tell ya, it's a very good defensive ship. very efective unless the enemy flt has apollos, it's a gamble...but so it is for every other ship in st....
it should be made available for production, it's far better than other ships being used...
btw, it looks like no one else besides me is travelling (to that planet, at least) to get those ships, i went there a few times, costing me almost 2days for a round trip at warp7

the blob

| MicroJak: |
Wait so, this ship ACTUALLY exsists? God! Oh. I see.. that's why it's in 'All Existing Technologies'.. well.. fancy a name change once in a while? |
| Senor: |
good post mj. very informative. doesn't make you look like an imbecil at all.
maybe we could swap the blob with some of the current researchable technologies that no-one hardly ever uses. take some other ship on prewarps and make this one constructable instead. groovy idea. |
| colinthecorgi: |
We could scrap prophets perhaps, to start with |
| linux666: |
i agree, it cost to much, doesn't do enough damaged, it should at least destroy an entire class ( except c4 it should destroy only 1 ship/building, otherwise it would be too easy to wipe out one base...), and it gives you a headache just to plan an attack using the prophet O|
easy choice...the prophet goes to some distant planet, if somebody wants it :)20 then can go there and get it, and the blob is put into production...it would be a good trade. |
| MicroJak: |
I agree (not with Senor). Nobody uses the prphet apart from multies. It is a rubbish ship and it is rubbish. So we should get rid of it.
Somebody make a topic about the blob, like, an appeal to make it and scrap the prophet.
But can we please think about the name!! (Otherwise I shall refuse to use it). |
| linux666: |
actually the name suit's it... 'cause it kind of absorbs some of the attack to it's own life...besides, does it matter what name it has when you're out there kicking ass with it? :)7 |
| MicroJak: |
Why not call it the 'Absorbatron' then? :P. |
| linux666: |
Admin, let's talk about something serious :)21 ...why is this ship still not in production? it's not even on the specials anymore!! c'mon, why don't you scap the prophet, and add the blob to production :)5 |
| linux666: |
Admin, plz...reply to this request. :-( |
| linux666: |
:)5 ....Admin? |
| DragonLilly: |
Linux, I do believe the Admins have better things to worry about the one ship one player wants... he's on a mission to make this game more new player friendly... so lay off and chill... he'll get to it when he gets to it... |
| linux666: |
and i do believe you're the one that has to chill...go outside, and take a deep breath ;) |
| MicroJak: |
I want this ship too damn it!
And what has admin got to worry about? Hmmm? sleeping.. yes.. earning a living, yes.. allowing this ship to be impletemented into an online virtual galaxy... YES!!! :)20 |
