Effectively making AF's even more obselete.

Audri Fisher, I'm afraid I don't follow..
Viktor Fyretracker...um...they will remain good for PvE, you mean. They are hardly a "rich man's toy", most of them cost barely twice as much as their race's interceptors.

incredible tank + damn nice damge output + 4th true bonus = nerfbait Maya.
Right. I'm against the 4th bonus.
James Duar, en-mass they kick an equal number of frigate's ass. That's what they're designed for, fleet defence. NOT solo.

The interaction of AF's, Bombers and Dessies is a current hot topic.
Also, is is entirely incorrect to try and balance a ship type in isolation. Ship balance is comparative, not a matter of absolutes.
Try coming up with a valid counter-argument instead.

Audri Fisher,
It wasn't origionally my concept. I just agreed and am running with it. (I think it was j0 who origionally said it).
Bombers, ditch the stealth bombers, make them tough and with resists like AF's and give them 3-4 of the heavy rocket launchers. Presto, anti-BS/capital frigates.
Destroyers are a whole order more complex a problem.
Lisento Slaven, sorry, should of specified - in PvP. Still useful PvE. And yes, dessies die lots...but they're also 1/30 the cost of the average AF. AND they're insurable. Sure, solo they're not brilliant, but neither are AF's (bar the Ishkur)

Absoloute and total rubbish. An AF costs in the region of x6-8 times as much to build, inc. T2 components. And most people have to pay the market cost.
AF's cost more because of the difficulties in production which T2 provides, as well as the premium allways attached to limited-production items.

Perfectly on topic. There's need need for anotehr destroyer bonus, theyre allready cutting far to deep into the AF's role.

Maybe I'm just in an odd part of 0.0, but I see atleast ten times more AFs than Destroyers. I don't think they are in any danger of becoming obsolete.
No, you're not (in an odd part). The "underpowered" AF's are widely used... for PvE.
Not for PvP. That's where the problem lies.
