both are good, currently I would give the edge to gal, but the hawk is looking damn sexy after the next patch

Both are ebil. Check their market prices. Usually the more expensive something is, the better it is. ----------------

Tuxford's proposed changes for the Hawk:
Originally by: Tuxford Hawk - Its going to be a missile assault ship. Its gettting 4 missile hardpoints, the launcher rate of fire bonus changed to a 5% kinetic missile damage and the hybrid optimal changed to either missile velocity or missile damage. As it is now both bonuses are damage.

The Hawk will look the same, however it's getting 4 launcher hardpoints and the bonuses to go with it instead of its current 3 turrets/2 launchers setup. --- High quality pics of ALL EVE ships!

i'm more partial to caldari AF tbh :P The hawk after next patch will be a Kestrel-in-an-AF... missiles gallore :D
The Ishkur does seem fun if you're into drones... but i think Harpy is generally a better AF. Its a great sniper, and it works really well as a blaster platform too.
Enyo... i'm really not sure about that one... it seems like an Harpy, but with less CPU... and less overall HP... tho it does go a tiny bit faster, and has a 5m^3 drone bay...

Really depends on skill and preference to your style of playing. Both the enyo and harpy are good w/ either blasters or rails. If your a missle spammer then the hawk is your choice. Ishkur is an evil frig killer w/ drones and a decent tackler w/ a mwd fitted. Really both races have good assault frigs, but i think inty's are better to begin w/ so i would base my choice on which inty you want. Hope that helps.

depends what your skills are in.
my skills are all in gunnery so i use gallente which are pretty much exclusively gunships.
caldari are more mixed and use missiles more.
also gallente tend to armour tank and caldari shield tank. so another consideration is which of these you can do better.
if you have no idea what im talking about dont fly either.

Both are effective. for the tier 1s (Ishkur VS Hawk) i'd give the edge to the ishkur, but hawk after the changes
Harpy VS Enyo is tough, but i'll go with the Harpy, as I have a Gistii setup, which is night unbeatable. "Hobbes, she stepped into the Perimter Of Wisdom.Run!" |

Eh well, i'm mostly balanced skill wise. I plan to use said AF for nefarious purposes. Does that make a difference either way?

it would help if you gave us more specific information on what you want it for tbh. we dont care if you use it to blow other people up either.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but upon last check the Caldari Harpy does not recieve the sheild kenetic & thermal bonus as they are listed in the description. It gets the armor bonus, but no sheilds...

LOL o wow you're right! it says that, but in reality it does get the bonus to both the armor and shields. I guess its just a typo...

Go both Enyo and Harpy. I used Harpy and Enyo for pvp and pve, and they just rock.
Harpy has nice shield tanking abilities, good damage and is able to work as a longrange railgun sniper.
Enyo has a great tracking bonus to hybrids, good armor resists and packs the same punch the harpy does.
Assuming you have assault ships lvl 5, both ships get the same hybrid damage bonuses, otherwise the Harpy will have a lower damage bonus.
So learning caldari and gallente frig to lvl 5 and assault ships to lvl 5 gives you the ability, to use both ships with the same effectivity.
With the upcoming Hawk changes and the superior Ishkur, you have more specialised ships. To be effective with the Ishkur you need good drone skills, and to use the new Hawk to its full potential, you have to be good at missiles.
IMO gallente and caldari have kick ass AF, learn for both.
