    If it wasn't req/herc it would be some other meta ships so I can't really fuss.

    That'd be extremely interesting to know. After dlc, did overall pvp go down, stay the same or increase? Did the dlc's do something or did meta shift from other ships and away from PB in favour of OW/patrol where dlc can be used? Stuff like that...

    Why dont people have the same mindset on captured 5th rates?

    I only know why I don't use capped bots.

    5 min to get a ship you want may be right, I rolleye at the idea of spending time with bots to get a fighting ship, but I know I weird that way and should know better.

    I rather craft ships so I have control over the speed/tankiness. Bot ships are often either too slow or too weak. There's nothing wrong with that as they should not compete with crafting, even I agree with that. End result is less time spent crafting and getting a capable ship vs. spending time hoping to get a decent ship in the bot lottery. I may be mistaken by that is how I perceive it.

    Now a herc can be clicked out with full control over speed/tankiness with a more than decent vanilla speed profile. You could argue it doesn't need a bunch of expensive mods to do both chasing, running or fighting if it comes to that. DLC clicking is the most time effective way to get what you're looking for. That's why I'll welcome all DLC ships that may come and sulk if they don't.

    I'm actually keeping myself to crafted ships for the time being as some sort of "normal player" role-play testing. I don't want to dive into a DLC-only world and forget how the other half lives just yet. It has little importance outside my head and I defo will start using herc a lot at some point.

    Wargaming has arrived here by content

    Interestingly enough RU server is by far the largest with EU coming second. They struggle somewhat on the US server.

    WGN themselves say that they struck gold almost by accident with using tanks for the arena game. Tanks are a thing with russians. WoT first drawing board idea was orcs and elves! ;)

    People who complain about DLC ships always complain about DLCs in every game. They don't want subscription, and yet they dont want DLC and demand things without offering means to achieve them.

    The whining about terrible DLC ships ruining NA started two years ago even before herc and req were a twinkle in your eye. There are concerns I have sympathy towards, but these "on principle" complainers I skim past and read the posters without tunnelvision.

    One click ships bring pvp to the pvp server, and kills to others. Many players returned to play because of them (they do not want to craft) and shallow patrols are always full from morning till evening. You either have those 31000 battles and 2200 pvp kills or you do not have them.

    This is why I was pro-premium two years ago and remain pro-DLC ship today.

    Also a reason I support DLC ships. Some posters think eco and crafting is more important and would have those people excluded rather than providing eco bypass.

    I would if I had the Herc DLC :P Unless someone has the Herc Note to spare.

    So you know the power of the herc without having sailed it? 

    I'm always open for duels without having to prove something on the internet. I'd love to fight in whatever ship because I'm desperately behind on my practice.

    Lol imagine a random PvP players gets drawn every day to hunt with a large reward, maybe one one from the leaderboard the previous day!! Then of course we have alts who would squish that idea anyway. Grrrr..

    If that would force a duel setup I would like to enlist as victim every time I log on.

    System: jodgi has logged on. Tag and kill him in any ship and receive 1000 doubloon reward.

    Heck! I would let global know where I was going.

  7. With all the pain that flows here due to the removal of trader tool; I thought I'd share an image that was part of the RAKER logbook, if you will, where we mapped resources. This was before player production and we used alts unabashed to fast-track eco. Bear in mind RAKERS viewed eco and crafting as necessary evils. Yup, Kaos and myself visited THE ENTIRE map to make things easier in the long run.
