    ColorAngry NC Phoenix missile launcher: nerfed

    The latest patch has rendered the NC's anti-vehicular weapon nearly useless. It's a shame too, because I'm not certified in much else. The new patch has decreased the missiles range, turning ability, and damage. It now has increased speed, but with the new awful controls, you won't hit much. Aircraft are now all but impervious to the Phoenix, and can easily escape out of range. It takes about 12 shots to destroy a Terran prowler. That's considerable, since the weapon is single shot. Chances are you'll be mowed down due to the range reduction before you even burn though 4 shots. After the latest patch, I'd rather take the Vanu boomstick over the NC's piece of junk any day. There was lots of complaining about this in the beta forums, so maybe it will be retooled. I sure hope so. Until they do, however, I would recommend against taking certs in anti-vehicular, and just go for special weapons. That way you can use the common pool dumbfire missile launcher with a larger clip, more damage, and a higher rate of fire.

    You can forget cert's, the first one is free so you get the points back imediately others take 24 hours to free up the cert points.

    Sucks about the pheonix, that had to do something as it was over powered but I think they went a bit far.
