Edited by: Decidis on 27/10/2007 21:29:08 So, I've read alot about whether Caldari AFs and HACs are worth it. Lots of posts beating up on Harpys and Hawks, etc.
So, my question is simple. Is it worth it to train up for AFs / HACs? I've got the skills to fly an SB decently now, but thinking about going that route, and have heard more negatives than positives.
OR, should I keep going the cov ops / EW route and train for that instead?
Looking forward to feedback!

Well, Cerberus with t2 missiles can chase off interceptors pretty quick. Other than that, I dont know. The caldari recons are pretty cool, if you're also considering that.

Eagles/Harpies in groups can do really nasty things to smaller ships from long range, and as aforementioned, the Cerberus makes a nasty ship. ------------------------------ One more soldier off to war... And one Velator in my hangars. |

a missile spamming hawk can create problems at times, its not the best ship for DPS but can have a nice tank

Used in their correct roles Harpy, Eagle, Cerb and the Recons are all good pvp ships

If you have a really good income, go for the recons. They're quite neat but with a good enemy on the other side you'll be going down first, a lot.
I don't see the point in Caldari HACs, heavy, immobile and even more expensive. Train them, but only for the purpose of getting something like a nighthawk.

In my personal opinion, when compared against other races HACs, a Cerberus is a waste of training time. Others will tell you differently but for me, the idea of a Sniping Missile boat is a misnomer. An Eagle by contrast is an excellent ship within its niche. That niche is limited to taking Frigate and Destroyer sized vessels or PODs out (I clocked up 90 something pods in mine).
As for AFs, it's a similar tale. A Hawk is good but a Vengence is better and a Harpy is excellent at its niche role, a role that's identical to its big brother, the Eagle. Of course, the one advantage training for Caldari HACs has is the ability to fly Recons and a Rook is on of the finest support vessels in the game. When fitted correctly with the right skills, a Rook can easily jam an entire gang leaving them vunerable for your damage ships to wreak havock.
Hope this helps,
