Seraph Demon	Posted - 2004.11.21 04:57:00 - [1] Compared to its sister ship, the Taranis, and pretty much all of the other interceptors, this ship blows, plain and simple... am I wrong?

CyberRaver	Posted - 2004.11.21 05:09:00 - [3] the ares is a catcher ship, fit it with a mwd and a 20km scrammer and you will nearly instalock anything that comes through a gate, in general though this ship is a pile of **** otherwise.

Kin Oreyn	Posted - 2004.11.21 08:57:00 - [9] It used to be worth something when we could fit cruise missiles in the launchers, but now it's pretty much useless. I will say this though, it can run 2 mwds forever and still fire off light missiles. But it sucks, possibly the worst inty there is

MwillyC	Posted - 2004.11.21 09:44:00 - [17] I like my Ares for PvE, I can do over 1500 points worth of damage per minute, and there is very little NPC wise that can hit it. The lack of a 3rd med slot means it isnt good as an all round PvP ship but it still makes a good tackler, as mentioned earlier, due to its higher speed.

I will say this though, it can run 2 mwds forever and still fire off light missiles. But it sucks, possibly the worst inty there is raptor is worse Ares loadout: 3H, 2M, 4L. 2M, 2T. Raptor: 3H, 3M, 3L. 2M, 2T. So, in essence, the Raptor does better at the interceptor role (holding) than the Ares, while the Ares is essentially only slightly faster (+35m/s, but heavier). Raptor is on the bottom of the food chain among inties, but it's still better than Ares. Well, not better LOOKING, but that's a different matter. By the way: +10% optimal range > +5% Tracking. -- If TC causes you discomfort that you feel is unwarranted or may be outside TC's current contract - contact me, please.

Leegion	Posted - 2004.11.21 14:52:00 - [23] With more 1 turret hard point it'll just be another Taranis, and better when you can tank it up a bit. So instead of that - 1 extra missile hardpoint shouldn't be too bad...

Will McBlack	Posted - 2004.11.21 21:01:00 - [27] I like it as PvE ship, with quite a nice Armor Tank for a frig. Next I am gonna try fitting 2 Tech II Ion Blasters and see if it can deliver more pain.

So instead of that - 1 extra missile hardpoint shouldn't be too bad... I'd say either +1 High slot (Ares = God of War, and thus has 2 turrets and 2 launchers which it can USE) or +1 Med slot (more of a tackler role) As far as the Raptor is concerned, though, all it really need is more speed and shield... or something. It's loadout is rather OK as it is, it is just lacking inother attributes ('cept ECCM stats, which are the best of all) -- If TC causes you discomfort that you feel is unwarranted or may be outside TC's current contract - contact me, please.
