Edited by: MotherMoon on 16/11/2007 04:28:33 I have 22 million sp, and fly them in combat all th time. they are small fast and cheap. THe rifter for instance packs a punch, and out squad at MNTZ use them in 0.0 in packs of 8 to take down anyone we fine. battleships are no issue with the right team set up.
also ratting in 0.0 can be done. :)
19mil sp in combat skills. still haven't trained large projectiles lol

you'd think so, but sadly, sometimes being a wolf or jag isn't a good thing. they tank great, and I have assult ships 5. they only cost 10 mil to boot!
but they are slower, and heavy.
basicly, I have 3 jags, 4 wolfs, and 23 rifters. I have 3 bombers, and 2 covOps. I have 3 of each ceptor.
I also have 3 logtisics ships and about 4 recon ships. I have say.. 7 t1 cruisers?
but the rifter is a lot of fun to fly because it's so cheap and packs a punch without the cost. I use only tech 2 guns.

They're great for people like me that can't pvp worth a damn. Same adrenalin rush, almost no hit to the wallet. Incursus and Rifters are fun as hell. __________________________________________________

my 30mil atron breaks 6km/s and I fly it all the time, among other frigs. I love them, and having an atron appear on a km is classic. ----------------------------- [ 2007.09.19 20:30:54 ] (combat) My Cat strikes you perfectly wrecking for Claws and Screams. |

Ka-tet ran a frig op for a bit of a laugh against frege during our war with em on a drunken friday night. We ended up getting around 10 bs, about the same in hacs/recons etc and a host of support for the loss of around 6-10 t1 frigs. We did have a couple of t2 frigs with us but they were the exception not the rule. It was really good fun and quite effective.
Peace WithinSo if the theory of relativity is true, shouldn't i arrive at my destination before i warped in the first place? Neon GhostYou do, but this is compensated for by lag |

<3 my Punisher but that's because they're the best frig Amarr has, that includes the T2 versions. Retribution is laughable as it has only 1 midslot, Vengeance is just meh and can't tank and it's range is beyond crap.

Edited by: Acinonyx Jubatus on 16/11/2007 09:24:28 tackler oriented frigs are cheap suicidal ways to get a point onto something, and when I say cheap, I mean cheap... just don't expect much more then that.
I like the incursus in suicidal tackle setups, cheap, does decent dps, can carry a rep drone, full tackle.
I love the breacher over the rifter, because it's like flying a hound, except it lacks a cloak, lacks same punch, but if it dies, you're only down 500-600kish if you fit it cheapish, versus a 35ish mill.
Warping 2-3+ times in some systems I could do without.

I find that when station camping, a kestrel fitted with rocket launcher II's, two sensor booster II's and two ballistic control unit II's is a nice surprise for undocking war targets. It's like a miniature POS siege. Apart from that, I fly Kestrels and Rifters when part of 0.0 ops. They pack a good punch and are cheap to replace. And when interceptor hunting, I like my Firetail. Nothing like over 2000 shields on a frigate to make your opponent go "wtf?".

I was flying one of those in my alt recently. Annoying to fit out properly (half a dozen possibilities where 'possible' is defined as "If only I had another 0.25 CPU or grid ) but seemed a capable ship. My biggest gripe though is the rolling back and forth. Is it a secret weapon designed to induce nausea? If so my rifter must not have had the pilot filters fitted to it  -- (Battle hardened industrialist)

Tried the Kestrel but didn't really like it: The cap is too low. Happened more then once that the cap drained completely while warping with the fleet, so i had to wait a while before i could catch up again :/
Merlin is nice. More cap and one extra midslot for some extra goodies :D

One of my first 0.0 kills was a vagabond trying to kill ratters. Tackled him in a kestrel and the ratter bs's popped him before he got me down. Fairly sure he did a mistake or two not killing me and not warping out earlier.
