I don't like Ion Disruptors!!!

Post by Gandalf The White » Sat, 18. Dec 04, 21:28

Well actually, I do like them, but not used on me lol. A Pirate ship used 1 on me, it took out my shields in an instant!!! then he fired off a missile and guess what???!lol.
some who deserve life receive death. Others who deserve death receive life. Can you give it to them? Don't be eager to deal out death in judgement, for not even the wise can see all ends.

I've been PSGed and IDed, and I didn't like either one bit. I have been a bit more careful about looking at the ship info of pirates before attacking them!

It's always fun to run into one of these ships. :)

You go in thinking it's the same old easy fight- and before you know it your running away from the pursuing pirate with only 50% hull left on your ship thinking to yourself "What in the hell just happened?! :o "

Then you are a bit more cautious afterward, and you start scanning their equipment before you go in and attack... but eventually you forget and the cautiousness wears off- only to get nailed again later on. :)

It makes the thrill of the hunt so much better. I was in a m4 and had to deal with a PSG. Fun fight that was.

Aye, I was attacked by a Pirate with Ion Disrupters equipped a few days ago... It managed to destroy one of my shields & the Transporter Device in about 2 seconds..... Git.

Actually, having dispossessed Pirate Bases around... 85 times now, I can only recall three occasions where I was assaulted with PSG's, and never by Ion's, only times I've encountered Ion's, is when encountering small groups on mindless rampages.

:o nothing like going after a mandaly in a M3 and getting a blast of APSG...
I think i've come across around 10 pirates carrying psgs, mostly freighters which makes for great fun in a Mako.

I once attacked a Pirate Party with 1 Bayamon and 2 Orinoco´s in my Scorpion. Not much trouble if you are not there for capturing ships but it gets interesting when 1 of the Orinoco´s has 2 A-PSG's installed. :skull:
