Most used factions, highest winning percentages.

I actually mentioned something along those lines several posts back.

You did, but I think your conclusions are incorrect. The most powerful will not always be the most played. See: IC Rooks. Clearly overpowered, even intentionally overpowered, but it wouldn't get played because the comms knew this. Not having similar play time probably indicates a problem, but not necessarily whether it is too high or too low in effectiveness.

Without any cheese Nix is still pretty good, they have awesome Hvy Ints (plus Dis3 doesn't work as well against them) with good mounts and a very nice hitbox, they do have 0.9 hull but so do most of the others...with the Exp GAs you'll be making such an amazing amount of money quickly, allowing you to get Ass3 up for the HTT win. Note that you'll usually have to use three HTTs even with Ass3, but that's okay, you're freaking rich.

Sup, +1 missile and a big tracking bonus makes DF3 extremely good, SIX DF3 equals major death. Again, hitbox and mounts are very good. TP's with Ass Shield like Grim said are difficult to stop compared to normal TP2 drops, plus you need Starbase for TP2 which means you don't have to go outta your way to get Ass3. Again with the He3 perks this is easier.

Tac, let's not even go there. (Brought to you by the Society of Tac Haters)

Note that these are the numbers, and Ass Shield is Nix Cheese but you don't have to rush it with bombers until you get Adv tech anyway, unless you're the sort of person who does that...(90% of people who play Nix). However the few games I have played where Nix isn't played retardedly (AKA it is played like any other faction) Nix is quite the powerhouse.

100% with Ang, use the Nak Method, WTF is a bomber...

Yep, plus you can push said HTTS at over 100mps with a hvy int.

Nix exp is quite powerful.

you can boost-ram bombers with vans to 140m/s (hyper boost)

i haven't tried boost ramming HTTs with vans, but i think the effect would be similar

Sniper 1.... Sniper_1@XT

coincidence?

You've discoevered the conspiracy! The entire of DN was created by Sniper_1 and Noir is his BSM slave.

Hence his willingness to be the Team Scoutman. (Noir you're my hero! Swoon)
