Confirming that there are uses for dictors in high sec too. You just have to dig deep to find them. Here's one example: I used the Eris for the longest of time as a loot&salvage ship, fast, eight hi slots and all those low slots, yummy.
+1 Made my first billion ratting / lvl3 mission running and salvaging in hisec in a Flycatcher. Now that I spend more time ratting in low (and a bit of null), the flycatcher is still my favorite bird. Too many people don't look outside a ship's given role. Their loss.
That one low slot is a daily Sophie's Choice, but whatever, I still think I like the proposed changes.

After reading the thread more closely I gotta chime in on the agility / MW issue. If the MW is the problem, then the MW needs the fix, not the dicter's agility (or mass, whatever).
Agility and speed are kinda important. ...end transmission... GÖ¬ They'll always be bloodclaws to me GÖ˝ |

And that the Heretic looks to be a superior missile platform to the Flycatcher (8.75 effective launchers with selectable damage types, against 9 effective launchers in kinetic flavour only).
Fix these two things and the balance between the classes is much improved. You then have the wider issue that the dictor hull is little more than a one-use suicide bubbler, which needs some more radical alterations.
Kinetic flavor is my favorite! Can't wait for the sprinkles.

If the flycatcher is to have a second low, this would be my preferred change. Having said that, I have learned to live with the single low. It's just the way she is. ...end transmission... GÖ¬ They'll always be bloodclaws to me GÖ˝ |

Why do people keep suggesting nerfing the flycatcher by removing a hi slot? I thought this was a'sposed to be a buff. ...end transmission... GÖ¬ They'll always be bloodclaws to me GÖ˝ |

For a tech 2 destroyer it should be able to have at least 2 low slots. I have been forced to cross train over to the Sabre why would I bother flying a ship that can only fit a damage control in the low slot and not get any nanofiber love?
Please consider the implications of adding a second low slot to the Flycatcher and you will find it to be more purchasable option for budding Caldari interdictor pilots.
I feel your pain, believe me I do. My concern is losing a Hi to gain the second Low. I can handle losing a Med, especially with the resist goose but losing a Hi for it would hurt my game far more than help. ...end transmission... GÖ¬ They'll always be bloodclaws to me GÖ˝ |

And on the flycatcher, has anybody actually fit out one yet with the new changes? I hear people complaining about the single low... but has anybody actually tried/fit it yet?
I once wished for a second low (not in this thread), but both V1 and V2 changes are more than enough to make me a happy pilot.
I support flycatcher v2. A lot. ...end transmission... GÖ¬ They'll always be bloodclaws to me GÖ˝ |

A decent slot layout combined with t2 resists and small sig, they will outperform assault frigates in high sec DED sites. The kinetic damage bonus isn't a huge problem except on one particular plex where the overseer has 80% kinetic resists and the Flycatcher simply can't break it's tank without using another damage type (and even then only barely).
I realize interdictors have traditionally been PVP only ships, but as they stand on Sisi they can definitely fill a (albeit niche) role for PVE.
Um, bring a rack or two of a different damage type? Seriously, if only "one particular plex" is the problem, and you already have the solution... |
