What is this useful for?

You spawn three, i repeat, THREE tier one fighters, that might even turn around and shoot you...

WOW! How fun! Really usable in sticky situations, let us spawn Black Suns tier 4 or 5 on PirateTrap2 instead of pirates who feels like they are commercial raiders from Tatooine. Seriously though, I sent my pirate trap II on the corvette because I usually solo them with bomberstrikes as an imp, and what happens?

3 agros spawn, TIER ONES! YES!! TAKE THAT EVIL SPACE CORVETTE! What? OMG SHE KILLED MY MIGHTY NEWBIE FIGHTERS!
Improve Pirate Trap II, It's just embarassing that such a feature exist, either you remove or you improve.

... s*it man ...

The command is pretty much a joke.

Black Sun Pirates for teh w1n

I'd love to seem some Rihks lay into the 'vette. The only pilot abilities I ever use are IFF and ePulse. Haven't touched eThrust or Pirate Trap since I got it to see what it's like.

The tier 1's lasted for about, 3 minutes, the vette took down one per minute, that's not enough time to get cover fire from them... It's totally useless and i demand a change! *pounds fist into table*

As far as I can see, they don't do anything. I called them on some tier 1 asteroid bandits. They just flew around with they asteroid bandits for while. I finally just killed them and the bandits and got back to mining.

YOU GOT THREE!? Wow, I got only two pirates when I used Pirate Trap 2 (just like when I use Pirate Trap 1 )Imp's get bombstrikes, Rebels get repair ships, we get two tier 1 pirates. I tried calling them on a gunship once, they lasted exactly 2 secs. Gunship killed both of them with a single shot.

I hope for a fix, and like i wrote in a previous post, letting us neuts transmit a distress call for Black Sun Pirates to attack the crap out of something or someone or even ourselves would be much better and way more usefull.

That´s the icying on the cake. I once called them in for some escort mission (granted, it was Pirate trap 1, so there were just 2 of them) to draw some fire when things got ugly... and guess what happend?

They turned on you and your transport after almost killing one wave of fighters?

Fix? How long as been JTL out now. It's been the same since launch right? I doubt we're ever getting any change.
