    https://royals.ms/forum/threads/the-perfect-corsair-corsair-guide-by-intensity.13594/ This guide need to be removed because of it huge misleading: It say Corsair shouldnt HP washing while corsair absolutely need one. And battle ship now better at max level. Many newbie Corsair (including me) believe in it and train their to high level then have to remake because they didnt wash HP. The skill build can be found in google or figure it out by players themself so i dont see a point to keep a bad guide like this.

    It's really old, I think it was in a time where people didn't kill HT so they didn't need to wash.
    I'd say the old guides should be removed in favor of newer ones

    I think they should be flagged, or have their title appended with [OLD SOURCE]. I washed my corsair a little bit, but i dont think enough to actually HT which is rly sad...

    A corsair technically only needs 7.8kish hp to HT since you'll be starting at head A to max DPS since the leg stomp with shred your ship.

    This way you have to avoid wings for a fair amount of time which is annoying and also risky on mass sed , I think a [old source ] title to outdated guides like this is an interesting idea

    It looks like @nemoxuong is going to write an up to date guide though, which is good.

    As a general rule the guides are written by players, and maintained by players, and the staff don't intervene (this would go for editing the title, for example). It might be possible to add a heading but... well see below

    On a different but related note, I've been throwing the idea around to organize the forums a bit with some new subforums (Class Guides for example so all guides could be stickied in one place.) There's rarely two guides of the same type being managed at the same time so I think it'd be easy to keep track. Also, I think @Kai suggested a while back of an actual Old Source forum "dump" where, for example, all stuff that's pretty clearly old source can be sequestered. But all of this "should" be a lot easier to do when we update to the newer forum version.

    Thoughts?

    Sorry, I don't think so.
    Most of you underestimate the combination of Wrath of the Octopi and Rapid Fire (both max. lv) too much.
    The former one is able to do tons of dps (16-20k, 25 shots, cd 10 sec) to those which won't spam weapon cancel.
    The latter one is 200% damage now, not the original 150% (or something below this percentage).

    The only thing is right that if you can perfectly jump-and-shoot while hitting head A, "max DPS" might be correct.
