I'm currently caldari with about 8 mill SP, but I dont really feel like I've chosen the correct race, since I like guns better than missiles, and rails are apparantly not very great atm. The only caldari ship I'm really interested in atm is the falcon, but that would require me to get cruises V, just for one ship, which seems like a waste at this point.
I'm therefore pretty torn between starting to train either amarr or minmatar, as I like both races. I'll probably mainly be looking at flying T2 and evetually T3 cruisers, possibly dabbling in BC's moving on to BS's later on.
My shield and armor skills are at about the same (rather low) level, so thats not realy a deciding factor.
Anyone got any input on what would be best to do in this situation? |

How does the loki compare to the legion? The T3 cruiser would probably mark my end goal for now.
Also, would it really be worth it to get caldari cruiser 5 just for the falcon and basically nothing else?

They're simply easier to fit and the ship progression is far less punishing for lower sp players. Anyone who argues otherwise has forgotten what it's like to have AWU-0 while trying to fit non-matar ships.
Well I do have AWU lvl 2, as I'm nearly done with t2 small rails lvl 4, so getting 3-4 in that shouldnt be too hard.
The main draw to amarr for me would probably be the zealot. Seems like a beastly ship. |

If you are around long enough you will eventually have all the races trained. I started with gallente trained all the way to a Kronos (hybrids aren't so bad now). Then trained caldari originally just for the tengu but ended up stopping at a CNR. Then I trained Amarr all they way to a Paladin. Now I'm working on cap ship skills for a thanatos and archon. Of all the races I use amarr ships the most for missions and incursions along with the tengu for some missions(albeit rarely). And for PVP its drake all the way. I haven't messed with minmatar at all though and won't be on those skills until June 
Thing is though, I dont really feel like flying a missile boat, and whenever someone mentions rails, all I see is "lol failrails", so I'm assuming they're not that great. |

1/10 for effort. At least try harder if you wish to troll. |

Well go lasers or projectiles. I know lasers are good from experience and I would guess people don't call minmatar "Winmatar" for being bad. If you can't decide flip a coin.
Yea well, thats the plan. I'm just looking for some information on the strong points of the 2 races. |

Thanks for the thoughts everyone. I think im going to go for minmatar for now. It just seems a bit more varied, and I'm not too fond of being out of cap all the time. |

lol. I like your metas. The Cane doesn't have these issues.
Also, you're a huge failure of an EFT-warrior.
Amarr Scorch (EM+therm) damage vs Cane armour tank = 93k ehp for the Cane
Hurricane Fusion (exp + kin) damage vs Harbinger armour tank = 58k ehp for the Harby
It looks like Winmatar win again! Selectable damage types! An EFT-warrior like you clearly can't comprehend anything as complex as that or the 30% better tracking, range control or overheat sustainability either.
I like them too. Minmatar has easier fitting issues, so what? Yes, I am obviously an EFT warrior and have no clue about the game. How about we fight a 1 on 1, me in a Harbinger vs you in a Hurricane. Fits of our own choosing, no implants so screenshots will have to be provided before the fight. Each of us provides 1 billion, winner takes all. Really tired of your whining - put up or shut up. Edit: I should just put up a whine thread also arguing along your lines comparing the Drake to the Hurricane - complaining about how the Drake outdoes the Hurricane in almost every aspect and crying for a buff. Edit2: Standard PvP fits - so no retardedness fitting EM/Therm hardeners on your cane. Just stop it. Everyone knows Hurricane is much better then a Harbinger and a Drake is just good as a Cane. No one cares if you win or loose. If Harbinger was good as a Cane everyone would fly it. You can't fool statistics: Canes outnumber Harbingers 12 to 1.
I'm not saying your wrong, but I'd like to add that justin bieber also has a lot of fans. Popular does not have to equal good.
