Edited by: Shamis Orzoz on 12/12/2004 11:31:31 I have been enjoying the minmater assault frigs...both the jaguar and the wolf...although I like the wolf better.
Only problem is, missles will ruin your day. Lost my jaguar yesterday to an amarrian heavy assault ship, but i don't feel too bad cause I got him into armor at least .
The real problem is ravens, if your assault frig is near a raven, there's a pretty good chance you are gonna die(contrary to tomb's rediculous post a while back saying he could use them in any fight...). I hear some of the other ships can tank that kind of damage, but the minmater ones certainly can't.

Edited by: Ithildin on 12/12/2004 15:35:27 Enyo is a pretty ship, but I'd not bother. It's slow and has too few (edit: med) slots to be effective in PvP.
Vengeance is a very nice ship, and a beauty to behold. It has enough (edit: med)slots to be effective even without MWD (note that Assault ships are extremely heavy and ineffective in using MWDs). It does lack firepower, but is more than capable of tanking even high-end cruser's damage.
Edit: Thanks! I must've been thinking of something else. Yes, it's supposed to read medium slots, and not low slots --

I don't understand the last post. Maybe you mean med slots.
The Enyo has more low slots than the Vengeance, but the latter has more midslots.
Like the Retribution, the key to the Enyo is to hit the opponent with so much firepower, that he might possibly die before he gets the consicious idea to run away.
Hubris---staying too long in the fight, not warping away in time, confident that he might still win it---is often the downfall of the frig pilot.

Anything. that rely on speed to survive or is a frig, is dead near raven

Depends if the Raven pilot shoots Paradise cruise at you and then you can survive for AGES in a Wolf  Trust me on this
In fact my Wolf can take one volley of any type of Cruise missles but thats besides the point, Missles > Assault frigs.
My best experience in a Wolf was chasing a CA Stabber from planet to planet (4 in total) only to see him keep warping. I said in local 'Come on dude Im only a frig , fight me' and he said not with all my corp mates in local so I said 'I'll kill you on my own' so next planet he decided to shut me up ...he died pretty quick.
Also solo'd Caracals and many other 'Anti Frig' Cruisers in an Assault frig and also one Blackbird who thought he was cool using pre patch fitting of Cruise missles .....shame those cruise missles were Paradise also 
Assault frigs ROCK !!!
So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.

I own a Harpy and have tried many Assault frigs but they only got useful in one situation and this is to hunt down other frigs. My Harpy shot on 50km with 150mm rail II, that works great but of course they are to slow for webbing scrambling actions against BS or something.
But Heavy Assault Ships work great against every target. They own.

I use a Harpy since 2 weeks for PvP. So far I killed solo BBs and Caracels (of course lots of friggs and inters too). Harder to kill are tanked Mallers and Thoraxes (I did not manage to kill em solo as they either ran, got company or simply tanked more damage than I could do). My kills with it are ~25 ships against one loss (ship/pod). All in all it is plenty of fun.
Of course assault ships are an damn expensive toy: I lost one Harpy to a gang of inters/friggs/cruisers which costed me ~40M replacing the ship and equipment.
