I like the changes.
Personally I think the Ares and Stiletto were good enough, though... Ares was a good tank and did great damage, its one of the faster interceptors. Stiletto was the best tackler.
Raptor.. well I'm not sure. Its got good HP, its just slow...
And the Malediction changes are nice... will do almost as much damage as a Crusader but its got the extra midslot.
I suggest the Ares extra mid be taken back. Its not a damage ceptor right now, its more of a tanking one. Stiletto should only get the extra lowslot, not the missile.

Well, now its just the Claw and Crusader with only 2 medslots. That makes them alot less useful than say, the Crow which can do alot of damage while still having 3 medslots to throw in a scrambler.
Still think the Stiletto was fine, and the Ares boost is a bit too much.

Someone suggested giving the Crusader the optimal range bonus instead of tracking. I'd like this. I'm not sure about the claw, though. Autocannons would do nice with extra tracking, but extra falloff would be nice, too.

Well, Claw is fastest with mwd despite the mass already. Its really good at choosing the range of engagement.

To reiterate, I think the Raptor should get a third turret slot on top of its new hislot - giving it just another hislot creates an interceptor which can fit 2 turrets and 2 launchers. The Crow can already do this, can't it?
Would be nice, and it wouldn't be unbalancing at all since the raptor is freaking slow and has poor powergrid.

Since you slow programmers are taking forever to get this onto TQ, I'm going to make a last plea for the Crusader. Don't give it a tracking bonus, its got enough damn tracking. Give it an optimal range bonus.

In reply to Yamans post, if the devs read the later posts in this thread, they'd realise the Crusader should get an optimal range bonus. Which would give it a unique edge over the Malediction. Crusaders already the better tank anyway.

You're kidding right? Any properly fitted assault will destroy any interceptor any day of the week. If the pilots are of equal skill, of course.

Err... Anyone care to explain to me what the new Malediction secondary bonus is good for? Are there more than just a few ppl out there using EM missiles?
I think there should be a more general purpose bonus for them, much like other ceptors receive.
As far as i can see the Bonus fits the Khanid/Dark Amarr fluff (storyline). Amarr ship with knicked Caldari technology. Tbh EM/Lasers are the Amarr thing, so the bonus for em missiles makes sence. Though they should give the Inquisitor missile frig the same em missile bonus (if it doesnt already have it.. im at work and cant check), maybe the bomber varient will if it ever appears.
But in practical terms all Inties would be better with a speed/web/scrambling bonus rather than an outright combat one, thus giving the Ass frigs a better bonus.
edit typos 
Inquisitor does

i just wonder... crusader fitted with med. pulse t2 has same damage output as retribution with maxed assault skills... of course you have to fit aux cores, but you wont get hit as easy in ceptor... surely ceptor will die to assault frig, but killing cruisers and attacking bs-s is far easier in ceptor(geddon can't hit assault with ab on 15km, so it cannot hit ceptor without mwd or ab(same speed less sig)), but difference is that it takes bs 40s to lock ceptor and 20 to lock assault...) and assault will probably die on its way to the bs, while ceptor wont.
Not to mention that vengeance does not have AND dmg or rof bonus while amarr ceptors have them. Surely they make nice tanks, but punisher has the same dmg output as vengeance and costs 100 times less(ok 50).
My point is that ceptors need more tackling bonuses, not dmg bonuses... surely they should be able to kill any lvl 1 frig(if pilot in ceptor is not complete idiot), but their dmg output should not match assault frigs
If you put two equal pilots in a match, one in an assault and one in an inty, the assault will win 90% of the time. Notice how I say equal pilots. Of course an excellent interceptor pilot can completely smash a poor assault pilot.

Making the ares as powerful as the Taranis damage-wise would make the claw useless

Not only can I not fit a mwd II with even dual light pulse, the second easiest guns to fit, I'm already challenged capwise, can't run everything forever, and this is on a Crusader. So I for one will not be able to use a tech 2 mwd. Clearly the crow is the inty of the month (year) again... great one-hit damage with missiles, that now go 50% faster, and its already pretty much the fastest inty, since it can easily fit a mwd 2, with no mass penalties. The taranis is also scary, with that tracking bonus its got.
