- Most of their ships can be effectively fitted for both shield tank and armor tank, able to fly with every doctrine!
- All their ships uses only 2 weapon systems.
They have an excellent and homogenous ship lineup with clear progression along both weapon system with every hull being able to get some benefit from both weapon system.
T1 Hybrid: Incursus/Atron => Catalyst => Thorax => Brutix => Hyperion/Megathron => Kronos => Moros Drone: Tristan => Algos => Vexor => Myrmidon => Dominix => Thanatos T2 Hybrid: Enyo/Taranis/Ares => Eris (eek) => Deimos = > Astarte Drone: Ishkur => Ishtar => EOS
- They are not the hardest to fly, one of their weapon system is pretty straightforward, and the other is probably the most forgiving turret system (high tracking/damage orbit@500m or sniping keep@longrange with low capacitor use).
- Their turret system is not dependent on Tech2 to be relevent
- Their cruisers can dish ludicrious amount of dps
- They have ships relevant to every aspect of either PVE (anom, incursion, mission) or PVP (kite, brawl, fleet).
- Drones skills will be usefull with any other crosstrained race
- They are the race that offer access to the most pirate hull (5 out of 7).
Are they the new winmatar ? To be fair gallente were due some love, when I first started they weren't any good at all.
Indeed I think it was up to around late 2010 or 2011 it was common to see threads in this forums usually titled "Why does CCP hate Gallente" or "Why I cross-trained to Caldari/Winmatar".

Reasons why Caldari are the master race.
- Never been enslaved - Never enslaved anyone else - Aren't hippies - Has the biggest trade hub - Has the best looking ships (grey > rust, brass, and snot) - Missiles are the best weapon system (no cap usage, always hits, selectable damage, huge range) - Most attractive NPCs and players (genetics) - The word Caldari looks like calamari |

You see now it used to be every other noob was Caldari and it was drakes drakes drakes everywhere at one time.
I think the changes have something to do with missile nerfs. Though when the T1 drake was changed people complained that it was a lesser PVP and lesser mission boat where usually a loss in one is a gain in another.
For a while though, the trouble with Gallente was because of Drake. I remember consistently reaching out to 70KM with non-faction HMs while speed tanking a drake with a 100MN AB.

at the beginning i could only fly gallente and was VERY disappointed with their gunboats, the vexor was and still is the best solo pvp disposable workhorse, and the domi was, and still is the best PVE drone platform considering its cost. but outside of the Drone boat lineup the other ships were extremely weak.
as soon as i branched out to minnie ships, i never looked back.
i can fly everything at this point, so when i bought a pure pvp character i went for what i already knew was the most fun, and that has to be minnie. only recently i branched out to pvp on amarr ships.
if i had to start again i would have gone minnie from the beginning, the reason is simple, its easier to adapt from minnie to either the mobility limitations and the reliance on overheating that amarr has, or the crapness of Meta hybrids of the gallente/Caldari if your starting point is projectiles.
learning with training ships like the rupture, which can go armor or shield and tactical ships with a good margin for error like the stabber is fun and cheap. |

Caldari race, best race. Enough said... Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person." |

I don't understand this topic. All races start exactly the same now (okay with a difference of about 73 skillpoints).
It should be "are gallente ships the best ships". Space lonely? www.multicamchat.com |

While not enslaved they still where under the Gallente until they separated, then enslaved themselves with capitalist greed.

*cough* Gallente value freedom but tried to take over the Caldari when they learnt they had expanded to other colonies so are actually massive hypocrites *cough* Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week.

Gal ships have certainly felt the love in the rebalance, no doubt there. But it seems that at any given period of time in EVE there's a FOTM race that has its day in the sun. Let Gal enjoy it. |
