In all seriousness though I agree, the Vasari have lots of little things like this.

Well, first of all the missile platform could do that way before titans were around. Second, as the missile platform cannot move, just don't use your titan to destroy them. Let your frigates do the work.

All turrets are pathetic late game, because everyone builds tons of bombers to deal with titans anyways. Bombers that can destroy turrets with each no matter what upgrades they have.

Yes its a great turret upgrade, but one that has minimal impact on the game once you are aware of it and know to avoid it with your important ships.

This is easily dealt with.  In a game a while back where I was VR (for the record, in MP, I avoid using jumping Orkies; I just like the other techs of the VR), my opponent VL.  He sent his Vorastra and fleet against a Kultorask, a couple Assailants, and a semi-upgraded Orky.  He didn't seem to notice when I built up a single PM turret behind my ships and then proceeded to retreat behind it, thus exposing his Vorastra to its passive.

PM turrets aren't OP, you just have to know to avoid them.  They can't move, so unless you let your fleet wander into their range (which you should avoid anyways as you never want more DPS coming at you anyways), you'll be fine.  If you do mess up though, you should probably retreat if you're looking at a longer battle because over that duration, titans heal back a ton of health.

I could see a -50% (so in actually, a -33%, Bilun) reduction in AM generation for titans but I'd really rather it stay in some capacity..

Unless you're Advent which have recharge structures and Disciples and TEC culture regen might not be stopped by this either.

If you're getting hit by phase batteries chances are you're in any enemy well and there aren't any rechargers handy  

Dealing with an maxed out Orky takes time... even with dozens of bomber wings.. 

Far worse... as the damm thing can move - and at an rather impressive speed for its size - you just cant wait on your jump in point, even if it is out of turret range. You have to start flying away from it....

Running away from it AND avoiding the turrets is often very difficult.... if not impossible. And your fleet might end you up on the wrong side of the gravity well when his fleets jumps in with vengeance. Just wonderful... phase missiles, pulses and waves from above and an angry Orky from below.... How I love it when I get 30 fleet supply "back" per second

The antimatter recharge stop is excessive powerful. Especialy against Advent, who rely heavily on their abilties for maximum fleet synergy. There is a reason, Advent got the best antimatter recharge upgrades.

Fighting a late game Vasari is Advents worst nightmare. To be successful in such an endavour you have to use every single ability at your disposal, preferably including a Level 10 Eradica on Chastic Burst rampage.

But that rampage is going to be very short lived without AM regeneration. BTW, this also means that most of the all new awesome Unyielding Will ability wont work, too.

0 antimatter regeneration multiplied with 800 % is still 0...

There is not much Advent have to offer when it comes to dealing with phase missile damage:

• Hull repair - disabled for 5 minutes - 5 minutes in which every single hull damage done is not repaired at all. This does even hurt the TEC.... who has a ton of armor on their ships.
  
  
• Culture - requires total culture domination to be applied fully and even then is pretty much worthless.   You dont have culture when you are attacking an digged in Vasari... he however has a juicy damage bonus there.
  
  
• Vertigo - is usually not very effective even with full AM regeneration due to the comparable low range and the fact that the Rapture tends do find an untimely end when the Vasari guy found out what is hampering his Kanraks. - without AM regeneration... lol
  
  
• Telekinetic Push - Vasari bombers are though.... so this is usually only useful for prolonging the life of your fleet, not saving it. It is quite AM hungry.... a few uses will deplete the Halycon.... if the vasari carriers are still there afterwards... you better make preperations for a very large memorial service...

Of course Shield restore, Guardians, Malice and Fracture wont work either... at least not for long. 

No, no... just go on... I dont need that Level 8 Progenitor... not at all..... ohhh that fireball over there? That was my Level 10 Halycon... before the latest Disintergrator volley, thats it....  well, I didnt liked the captain anyway... Sure go ahead killing my fleet... not like Advent ever have any money trouble after mid game... besides I wanted to build something more useful against Vasari anyway.... something like 200 colony ships for example...

5 minutes is an eternity in a battle.... and the effect last even if you leave the gravity well.... a chasing fleet is at an considerable advantage.

Advent defense get what? A minor damage increase? Yes, shield bestowal is nice, but its usefulness drops rapidly in the later stages of the game.

TEC? Nice turret abilities.... but nothing with such an huge area of effect.

Only the Vasari turret remains useful, because of this ability alone. At a range of 7500 there is little in the game that outranges the area.

I stand to it. A single cheap turret should not have such powers. Probably not even on capships but most certainly not on Titans.

People have been basically fine with this through Entrenchment and Diplomacy.  I can understand disliking it for titans because I agree titans are their abilities (unless you're talking about the Ragnarov's railgun that deals something like 200 DPS) but players have been dealing with this fine for capitals.

Also, Orkies are as mentioned above, anti-structure starbases.  Unlike the other two, they don't provide fleet support or have uncapped AoE's.  It deals raw damage and that's basically it so quite frankly, I'd much rather go against a defending Orky that's maxed than something like a maxed Transcencia because I don't have to put up with Mass Disorientation and Meteor Storm which obliterate my fleet's DPS (and they probably have Malice as well, so...).

Avoiding turrets is easy and they cannot be placed such that you die upon jumping in.  If you fight at the edge of the well (or just where the turrets aren't), you'll be fine.  It isn't hard.

And just a couple corrections, you say that the TEC has nothing compared to the range of PM turrets on their turrets?  Look at Meson Bolt.  8000 > 7500 plus missiles at short range.  Next, you say that few things outrange PM Turrets.  That's right.  Just things like Adjudicators and Orgovs which don't, you know, hard counter structures or anything.    LRF also outrange PM turrets.

The original sins was all about capital ships, still is but now the titans are the tip of the spear. Its just Titans of a Solar Empire

Lol....you should't have told me that....that's just more ammo for my upcoming rant....

I'd like to see the equivalent of Maelstrom's titan which is limited by abilities to a single one in play just like titans in Rebellion.  

Use the same concept to create a special "one-of" capital ship that excels at only one thing--having abilities that hurt titans and little else.  Think of it as an upscaled corvette.

So it could have hull reducing, engine stopping, shield reducing,  antimatter draining, etc., etc. that effects titans only--you could even vary the abilities by faction--just like corvettes.

So you would have a relatively weak capital that required protection from other capitals and massed frigate fleets that could make hit and run attacks on a titan that would allow normal fleets to have a better chance of success against them but that also would have to be carefully used to be available and effective.

Now we just need an Orkulus hunter.  In fact, the rebels Orkulus Rex could take the place of their titan hunter-killer.

because there no longer the king of the hill thats why lol. Just pawns on the battlefield.
