13kr1d1 Hedion University Amarr Empire 91	Posted - 2015.04.10 00:40:47 - [1] - Quote I know the tormentor was the go-to one back when it was a mining frig, but whats the next best thing now that it has been nerfed? Best cargo space? Best speed? Best blend of two? At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.

May I ask what changes you are referring to? Are these recent changes (I've only been playing for a few months)?
Paranoid Loyd 4630	Posted - 2015.04.10 22:25:24 - [4] - Quote Before the changes due to the way the mechanics of acceleration and deceleration worked the time it took a battleship to warp from point A to point B was not all that much different than it took a Frigate to warp from point A to point B unless that distance was a very significant one. With the changes this became very different it now takes a larger ship considerably longer to warp than a smaller ship. In addition, they also introduced rigs and modules to increase your warp speed allowing you to warp even faster allowing you to get to your destination significantly faster. http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/warp-drive-active "Gankers are just other players, not supernatural monsters who will get you if you don't follow some arbitrary superstition.

Trajan Unknown Agony Unleashed Agony Empire 8	Posted - 2015.04.10 22:52:22 - [5] - Quote Use a blockade runner I-¦d say. It will come close to 12AU warpspeed, can use cloak and aligns pretty damn fast. Instead of hopping from gate to gate use pings to avoid smartbombers that way you don-¦t need to waste the lows for tank. The cargo isn-¦t great but if you need to transport some high value low m-¦ things cargo space wont be an issue.
Daerrol Furtherance. 92	Posted - 2015.04.11 14:37:47 - [6] - Quote Confirming Magnate is the way to go. Off topic question to OP: If you are a few months in why do you have some dribble about Tristan's being OP in your sig...?
13kr1d1 Hedion University Amarr Empire 91	Posted - 2015.04.12 04:43:58 - [7] - Quote Who said OP? They're be best choice for solo PvP in FW space for frig size. Cheap, powerful, T1, etc. Why the butthurt? At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.

Herateis State Protectorate Caldari State 6	Posted - 2015.04.12 12:27:59 - [10] - Quote Looking at those graphs and stuff I would say get an industrial like sigil and use its natural fast speeds to boost with warp speed rig and inertia stabilizers so you go even faster around places. The sigil base ship is almost as cheap as any frigate and carries a lot more and is pretty fast. Unless sig radius is a problem.
13kr1d1 Hedion University Amarr Empire 91	Posted - 2015.04.13 04:30:42 - [11] - Quote Looking for a frigate, but ok. At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.
Triakis Cadelanne The Scope Gallente Federation 13	Posted - 2015.04.25 22:13:53 - [12] - Quote If you want to use a frigate I assume that you're carrying a small, high-value stuff. So to me the best bet is an interceptor fitted with Inertia stab, dcu and a shield tank. It's uncatchable (unless by 2 BS using smartbombs, which is really rare) and it warps really fast.
13kr1d1 Hedion University Amarr Empire 102	Posted - 2015.04.25 23:26:49 - [13] - Quote Cant fly interceptors yet. At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.

Cardinal T Imperial Academy Amarr Empire 8	Posted - 2015.04.29 17:06:06 - [15] - Quote Another vote for a Magnate, I used to run level 2 distribution missions in it to grind standing. Its the best frigate option short of an Anathema.
