Hive Queen Gat Turrets

These things are way too good. I suggest either making them a little worse, or leave them the same and make them REALLY rare. A prom with one of these things is rediculous.

It isn't very dramatically different from the AGT already. But it does have a higher shot velocity, which I could tweak a bit. It still has a mass of 2000kg (as opposed to the old AGT mass of 1400kg), so it shouldn't be all that ridiculous.

Oh please Ghost.
Its nothing compared to the old Gat, you fart!

Yeah, but thus far Hive stuff isn't the best--with the exception of the HiveGat.

The Hive FC Batt is like a UC batt, except it only has a 48/s recharge. The Hive posi is heavy, and can't quite measure up to the Axia Accelerated Posi. The HiveGat is the odd man out--it does more damage and is lighter than the AGT. If anything it should be a bit heavier.

leave it the same and make a new counter weapon or a couple of new countr weapons or some new prom crusher ship that other ships can beat but for some bizarre reason it is hard for the prom, tweaking things into uselessness or until is the same as everything else has become very old.

what possible ship could crush a prom and NOT crush other ships??

one with a damage reduction value of 300 or so.

Hive weapons are rare and can't be bought so they should be better.
The Hive Queen Gat isn't as good as the old Gat so what's all the whining about?
All the other queen stuff is worthless anyway.

The Hive Queen Rocket launcher's have limited ammunition cause it can't be bought!
AGT is fine.

You mean the seeker Missile launcher? (yeah I know it isnt a missile launcher, but thats what it is called)

Yea, seeker's.

I neglected to mention I think the new AGT is well balanced now. I know mine is just one opinion of many, but I think it's currently in a good spot.

@Kix: I'm fine for leaving the hive GT as it was, I just don't think everyone and their brother should be using one then. Adjusting the queen drops so that they're more rare (which was promptly done, yay!) fixes this IMHO.
