You sir, just got slap-blocked. |
Regardless, the specifics of how you are wrong still stand...
A.) I don't compare either, actually. I compare what can be obtained via CPoints instantly versus what is not immediately available, given this is a PvP comparison and the PvE for dilithium is irrelevant. But no, I compared the Armitage to the Fleet Escort as well - Armitage has the fighter capacity that the Fleet Escort does not have, and 4 Runabouts is a rather huge advantage, ESPECIALLY in a 1v1 engagement. If you don't know that much, you're unfit for PvP.
B.) I'm giving up console slots of my choice. AMS for example (among several others) is vastly more useful than a depreciating-return on an extra armor or field emitter. The depreciated return on the two of those versus AMS and the Armitage (from the aforementioned notation) Torp Spread console (equal in damage to a Torp Spread 3 with an unlimited target acquisition and 360 degree radius) is laughable at best. And that is only one possible CPoint combination of many.
C.) Z0MG!!1!1ShiftOne! I mentioned two consoles that are on the exchange!!! 2 CONSOLES ON THE EXCHANGE?!?!?!?!
BLLLLLAAAAASPHEMY!!!!!!
That suddenly makes EVERYTHING said completely useless to someone who obviously doesn't PvP!
Whatever shall I do?!
...Yeah.
Nevertheless, you're correct. I mentioned 2 consoles available on the exchange... among the many more that aren't, which you had overlooked in your short-sighted attempt to seek some form of "victory" against an obviously superior PvPer...
After all, can't get it in the game, so have to seek that vanity here, amirite?!
So slap-blocked... I don't know how I will ever live with myself... /sarcasm
Enjoy your weekend, "sir".

More Accuracy not only means better hit rate, but higher Crit rate as well.
Both lead to greater DPS.

And regardless, the post I was responding to indicated that, without [Acc], you can't hit any ships in PvP. This is an incorrect statement.

Though you'd be surprised on what Kerrat will breed in loot... got several of my Dreadnought's ACC3 XII weapons there. Already 3 of my Armitage's.
