Originally by: FactionShipPoster Daredevil - Semi-Useless Bonus Semi Alert. Fall off bonus is like a meaningless increase on small blasters and it has a web bonus so what's the point of railguns. The bonuses just don't play nice together. I love the idea of this machine of death but the layout it all wrong. I don't like the 3/3/4 layout at all because you can not fit armor tanks on this. Light frigate type ships that do not have the fitting for a plate, propulsion, and turrets. Blasters take 3x more pg that small autos. Let alone add a 8pg nos to keep cap. Add to the fact it has a web bonus it could use the extra mid. My advice is to change it to a 2/4/4 layout. Its better than a 3/4/3 for this ship, which are both better than the current 3/3/4. The 2/4/4 also allows for a variations on fittings, rail nano range fit or shield blaster gank or whatever else floats your boat. And bring back the token 5mb drone bay just for class. It's my favorite part of the current ship because even when you cant bring your ship in close on a dangerous target the light drone will still represent for you.
Did you even bothered to check its stats or try it out? Dude, it's frigate with 450 DPS (2 damagemods + t2 rof rig + 2 dmg hardwirings), 90% web, 4200 effhp and 4500+ speed. It's friggin' 450 DPS with in-built ability 'ignore any active tank', 'ignore 1-2 neuts' - just because target will explode before it manages to do anyhthing to daredevil.
It definitely doesn't need more PG for armor tank, some slots for shield tank, or any drone bandwidth - it's already overpowered as-is (blast'o'ranis style, but much better). If CCP is fine with this stats - its cpu/pg/slots layout is somewhat nice and correct, no need to adjust anything here.
I can attest to this, got into a brawl with one in a slicer and a shield buffer Succubus, the thing just tears through whatever gets infront of it once it gets into range.
(nothing to say on flying it, dont have the skills unfortunately)
