GÇô Eris is the next in the new Roden designs. Big bonuses to both missiles and hybrid turrets allow the highest damage of all the dictors if one chooses. However for most normal uses the big Eris changes are the huge amount of mass it lost (leading to much much improved speed and agility) and the extra fittings. The 10mn AB plated fleet fits will be much improved after Rubicon. "10mn AB plated fleet fits". Are you balancing these ships based on some idiot's idea of an Interdictor fit? Or worse, do you actually believe that people fly armor tanked interdictors? Fully agree. Raivi, plz do not balance ships based on oversized mods <_<
Personally translated it to *eris can now mount a plate, guns and launchers or could also fit a 10mn with some leftover remainings of a tank, I tested it and it.... well.... fits*
That aside, in the right environment a 10mn coercer is tanking like a baws - same should happen to a 10mn eris bubbling a horde of ABCs or even sentrydomis (afaik they do not necessarily carry anything besides sentries)
Calling a 10mn bubble an idiot idea is quite premature aswell, especially people like you should appreciate the niche usage that this hull could be used for.
From my perspective, considering that a good friend flies the eris passionately already to quite impressive success (the guy who imo came up with the one true smallscale geddon fit, unlike all those scrubfits that are littering the kb (huehue 2 neuts, 5 cruise launchers - so scrub)), I do not think that plated dictors are majorly worse compared to shielddictors. They are just worse at decloaking and running away, but also better at tanking or getting under the guns of a single cruisersized target or bigger (a sigradius boosted by double-MSE as example for the sabre is significantly higher compared to a plated eris, if you don't 2MSE your sabre, you're doing it wrong anyways)
