The graphs in the dev blog shows them getting a pretty significant boost in mwd speeds, which means they will now finally be real frigates in every sense of the word.

So now they're interceptors with twice the ceptor's damage output. Nice (lame.)

Over exaggerate much?
They still are slower than standard frigs, and far slower than ceptors.
AF need a huge freaken buff, and this isnt even anywhere near enough. |

Indeed.

I think it is. What do people complain about with regards to assault ships? That tech 1 cruisers can both out damage and out tank them while being a hell of a lot cheaper. That's the problem - that people are comparing them to cruisers instead of frigates, because in one very crucial aspect they are cruisers and not frigates. They are very slow and heavy for their hull size. They fly like cruisers.

As long as I'm reasonably sure their not packing ECM drones I'll happily take on any cruiser after the buff in an AF.

Yep, buying myself a few Jags for post patch. With the web and scram I should be able to stop anything from outrunning it, anything big enough to kill me I can keep under the guns of now. And with webs going to 50-60% I can keep enough transversal to avoid hits. Occassus Republica <3 |

Isn't enough? I think the change is overpowerful, but worse is what it'll do to AFs is what it'll do to other ships. I'm fairly certain that this change will introduce ship setup magnatudes more overpowered then anything EVE has ever seen.
Close range AB/Tracking disruptor setups that can't be hit. MWD Lachesises that can kill the MWD of any vessel that could otherwise catch it, no tracking of course. Missile/shield boats that can fit ubsurd tracking disruptors while being immune to them. Huginns are just untouchable with their natural enemy, nano-cruisers, gone. The only things that can catch a huginn will die in seconds to one. _______________

Huginn's should not be killed by nano-cruisers, you can however kill one with the new speeds very easy in any mid range BS or BC or even a cruiser.
I think we will see some new and very nasty ship setups, but nothing with the outright ability of nanoships to get run away from anything they can't kill. Occassus Republica <3 |
