I've been using the Heron (and training for the Buzzard) recently and was kinda confused by their boni ( 5% kinetic missile bonus on both and an additional 5% launcher rof for the Buzzard). As two of your highslots are almost always going to be a cloak and a probe launcher, it leaves you no option for a launcher on a Heron and possibly one on a Buzzard. Granted, you could take one (or both) of those modules for more launchers, but considering both of these ships are paper thin, have very low powergrid, and are generally only used to covert-operations (ie not engaging their target), I thought it would be nice if they could both lose the missile boni and get something else for the Caldari Frigate skill level.
[e]After looking over all the other covert ops frigs, i noticed a simmilar trend, so i guess these changes could be applied to all the other races' ships in their respective manner.
I dont know if many Covops users enjoy a damage bonus, but aside from that I cant really think of any repercussions for remove the boni and replacing it for something else. What that would be exactly Im not sure, but I'll think of something soon enough.

Edited by: PartyVaN on 29/12/2006 09:37:40 Well as pretty much all non-combat ship boni are pretty much taken by each races other frigs (speed, cargo space, mining, ECM/EWAR, etc) I've come up with a few different ideas for the caldari frigate bonus:
*Probe/Recon Launcher CPU reduction *Probe/Recon Launcher ammo capacity *Moon Survey Probe max velocity *Cloaked Speed and Scan resolution bonus (Covert Ops Cloaking device is wtfexpensive and not a viable option for many) *Cloaked recalibration time *Hacking speed/effectiveness
-I just recently heard that the Buzzard gets a base astrometrics module duration bonus of 50% (on top of the 10% per Covert ops skill level), so now I kinda wonder if it (or the others) get any sort of other hidden boni...
But anyways please contribute if you have any ideas on the matter.
