It's not only about how competent the ranis pilot is but also how competent the other guy is. It's not always easy to determine.
The other guy might be from 2006 but he might have exhumers 5 or such, and barely any idea about pvp. Or it can be a few months old guy who knows what he is doing.
There is always a risk, and that makes it exciting.
A competent ranis kills a nab bs.
A competent ranis can be killed by a more competent rifter.
Yea dude, I have been playing for years, you didnt really say *anything*.
How about more specific, like, "Be careful of arbitrators"
Be careful of arbitrators.

Easiest would probably be Curses/Pilgrims. Id hunt those exclusively.
How so? Aren't drone boats potentially dangerous due to Warrior IIs?
Assuming they got a good flight of Warrior IIs (I'd bring 10) which are managed a bit, wouldn't they take the guy down eventually?
Warrior II hit over 6000m/s, which not even a Taranis can break now unless you're talking expensive implants and pure speed rig.
I could be wrong ofcourse, just curious how a Taranis would fare against properly managed 5xWarrior II drones.
They're giving him misinformation because of his poor attitude and rudeness.
As you surmise a curse/pilgrim is the last thing he'd want to go looking for since it could shut down his MWD/tackle/guns and eat him with drones before you could say "playing for years".
In fact, since the general MO is to use the MWD to close range and then to orbit point blank without it you tend to be vulnerable to well skilled medium drones as well.

What you can kill is way more dependant on the pilot than the ship they are flying.
You can easily kill a stupidly flown and fit battleship.
You will easily die to a well flown and fit Rifter,
With this type of discussion you have to assume that other than the ships everything is equal. Meaning the pilots in the ships have the same "flying skill" corresponding to the ship type. This isn't a twitch game like Quake 3 or Counter-strike source but more like a strategy game where given a scenario with a limited number of varibles and everything else fixed, you can come to the conclusion of a outcome with a good level of certainty.
Not really.

Long range dessies will probably get a single glancing hit on you on the way in and then they're done (unless you do something really daft).

You need a double pointed HAC for that though
