Just wondering because I got a load of gunnery skills and trained them up to level 3s and 4s so I don't want them to go to waste with a Drake.

A Ferox makes an solid sniper for PvP. With Tech2 gear you should get out to 120km with Spike.
If you have loads of Gunnery skills and haven't already, cross train into Gallente ships and get yourself into a Thorax or Brutix.

Depends on what you will be doing with them. Get an eagle and youll pick of support like nobodies business. Get a ferox load up with antimatter railguns and do missions decently. There's quite a few scenarios where they are sweet.

Probably Harpy. Fit it for full dmg and tackling gear and enjoy the ride.
Moa lacks dps Ferox lacks dps Eagle has range, but lacks dps Vulture has range but same dps as the Eagle
I'd say Rokh is nice too, but seeing you talk about a Drake makes me thing you're not ready to fly a BS yet.

The magic question?
What do you want to do with the ship? Solo pirating? Wolfpack ops? Fleets? PVE?

Relatively to its class, easily the harpy.
Overall DPS and use next to the Rokh, vulture. Eagle is OK-ish too, worse than the competition but at least it can do something.
Ferox and moa can fly, but it is so underpowered compared to its competition that I cannot recommend it.
I'd say harpy for pvp, ferox for pve.
But lvl 3's and 4's are hardly a reason to stick to gunnery. --- If someone else from my Corporation or Alliance agrees with me, he will say so. Assume nobody does :) --- WTB: Scorpion wing (left)

Its the eagle/vulture
If you cant afford/fly that then its the Ferox.
After the Ferox, its the Moa
after the Moa its the Harpy.
Fit the Eagle/Vulture/Ferox/Moa with tech 2 or best named guns and either faction ammo or tech 1 ammo.[otherwise you want to be flying a Rokh] Keep the t2 ammo in the hold, but dont expect to use it. You should load up long range in most situations.

Yup I agree with most people here. I am a caldari pilot but I use T2 blasters rather than rails.
For pvp the harpy is great fun, not the best AF in the world but still decent and cheap as chips too.
You can get a fully T2 fitted one for under 20mill, with neut blasters they can do some nasty dps. If you pick your fights you can tear many cruiser sized ships to shreds. I have used mine to rat in 0.0 to great effect. I do more dps than my friend in a raven! Although he is quite noobish...
Then working up the ranks the eagle is decent too, like the harpy though it is by no means the best hac but it does have a fantastic tank so again pick your fights carefully and you can pwn. Then when you get to the rokh you finally get a ship which is good compared to its peers. Personally one of my fave ships. Decent tank and gank whilest looking super cool all in one package! :)
I know you said its for fleet pvp but trust me eventually you will want to go solo/small gang. Much more fun imo.... become a piewat!!!

To OP
I am into solo/gang PvP and I don't really enjoy it too much because it doesn't seem as chaotic as a Fleet War would be, especially at short range.

yeah i would agree with harpie. nice ship bit slow but its ok. Does moa firepower.
eagle is lots of range but low dps. so maybe for gatecamping some frigs and shuttles at 180km away. That pretty much what you will kill.

The Ferox can handle lvl 3 missions just as well as the Drake, Even with my mediocre fitting skills I can fit 5 x 250 prototype Gauss guns and I usually fit 2 arby assault launchers to deal with the frigates to help the drones out. It clears the lvl 3s nearly as fast as the drake and is a little more fun.

Caldari have 2 great gunboats: Harpy and Rokh... In between we have nice choices but generally they are quite underpowered.
I'd recommend you grab yourself a Ferox until you can fly Eagle. Ferox is not a bad ship for PvE or groupfighting at long ranges. It isn't easy-mode though - none of it. - I'm a nice guy!!
MOA is NOT UGLY!!! It's A FREAK SHOW!!!! |
