Minotaur is unbalanced!

<< < (10/11) > >>

MidnightWonko:
Minotaur outranges both Artemis and Manticore.  I would call those two weapons "checks" to the Minotaur.  Not "counters."

Kamoba:
Gatling out ranges carronades but it cab still effectively fight against one...

An advantage does not write off something having the potential to counter something else.

A gold fish is able to be killed in two shots using a merc and heavy flak, both which can be used on a galleon, but a blender fish is still about to counter a galleon.

It is all situational, and you have to use the right tools for the right situation.
Telling people "Oh that wont work because it is out ranged" just assumes every match is a snipe fest and only people with the longest range will win, witch is far from the case...

Ships, move, flanks happen.
People think.

Richard LeMoon:
Somebody said somewhere in this thread that it is not very effective against Galleons because of the mass.... Somebody is wrong. Two shots will turn a Galleon more than 90 degrees. If it does't, you are doing it wrong. Pyramidians are actually one of the least affected ships since they are small and heavy.

Range might not be everything, but the 1800-meter range of the Minotaur is very noticeably greater than the 1334-meter range of the Artemis or the 1200-meter range of the Manticore.  If the Minotaur's range were reduced to 800, both those weapons as well as the 2250 Mercury would outrange it, giving more than just a single option to disable Minotaur while being targeted.
