BLASPHEMY.
If you can not fly ECM then you are not worthy of flying any Caldari ships.
But to answer the question:
Forget T2 and shiny PvE Battleships.
The best Caldari ship by a long shot is the Hookbill.
Griffin is 2nd best.

2. By caldari do you mean missile boat? Because if not you can use hybrids.. If you can use hybrids you can use the incursus.. If you use the incursus you win at life.
I would suggest an incursus (No dual rep bullshit)
If thats not an option the merlin is alright. The kestrel can brawl pretty decently with rockets and the condor is pretty good at lml faggotry. You can also use the kestrel for this but its harder since its slow as balls.
ECM IS AWESOME.

You will learn alot about your pvp skills and awareness in one month. Do not fly a HAM caracal. HAMS are horrible, and the caracal is not a HAM boat. Also to those recommending T2 or ECM boats, stop trolling this guy. Caracal is by far the best caldari small gang / solo / roaming ship with easy access. HAMs are fine. I know a guy in my corp who flies HAM caracals and beat up on people all day long. Though, within FW space, RLM is probably preferred due to all the frigs/dessies roaming around
I agree.
HAMS are great on a Caracal, especially with faction ammo - They hit out to 28-30km.

Not really.
From memory - If you use Meta 4 Large shield extenders it works fine.
Most people make the mistake of using t2 and due to the higher fitting requirements end up nerfing the rest of their fit as a result.
Try it - you will find it makes a big difference.

But you're still going to lose to an RLM caracal. It has a much better tank, and better applied DPS.
Wouldn't mind testing it to see what happen TBH.
I'll be in Enaluri with HAM cara in the hanger approx 2 hours before DT.
Feel free to drop by.

Condor and hookbill are good but you may have trouble finding fights. Few people want to mess with a kiting condor because the fights are rarely good. I had a few good fights with rocket condors but so many players fit them to kite I rarely even bother with them anymore.
Hookbill used to have the reputation as the best navy frigate. It probably still is so you might have problems finding fights.
Grifin: nothing says "I don't really want to fight" like flying a griffin.
Hookbill isn't king anymore tbh.
They are a bit more balanced since the Firetail buff and Hookbill agility nerf.

Hookbill: A souped up kestrel. Can kite or brawl. Very flexible. Think of the hookbill as a smaller version of the navy osprey. (Warning: flying a hookbill may result in talking in an austailian accent and subbing more accounts to fly multiple hookbills simultaneously. Not responsible for an increase in classiness and dashingly good looks)
