A fast kessie with four rocket launchers is an absolute riot to fly, boom boom boom boom boom boom boom, opponents loose just to get away from the racket. |

Ive always put the Rifters wobble down to Minmatar sub standard duct tape construction and it gives it a character of its own.

When ppl in your gang are flying HACs and BS, its kind of obnoxious to be like "aight Imma bring my Rifter."
Otherwise I would always use a rifter because 1) Tackling is fun 2) An inty is not really much more survivable than a rifter but costs about 10 mil more.
Right now I fly a jag but it feels heavy and slow.
In the future I'll prolly fly a claw.

T1 Frigate ops are pretty awesome, we do them semi-regularly.
Rookie ship only ops are even funnier though.

Edited by: Yao Shiu on 17/11/2007 23:02:06 executioner + MWD + weight on the F1 key = superfast AFK autopilot (in safe space of course)
and of course the punisher for fun... but not all that much of late. I used to fly a retribution for lvl 2 and 3 missions, but it's a bit too sluggish for my liking

I was in a Maelstrom with a friend in a Hyperion. 9 frigates and 1 Caracal jump into local and on our scanner.
3 minutes later local shows 2 and scanner shows a lot of frigate wrecks.
So no they should not be flown.
I guess you could give it a MWD and riddle it with EWar. Nothing else that a frig can do is useful. Amarr Recon/Electronics Attack Ship/almost Black Ops pilot for auction |

Originally by: Lazuran I fly T1 frigs when I can't buy a shuttle, otherwise not.
Seriously, there is no reason to fly T1 frigs when you have skills to fly T2 ones effectively. If the Wolf is too slow, fly a Claw.
lol? when a rifter shoots almost as well, why fly something 10x the price if you're just looking for frigate level dps?

So how effective would a group of 5-6 frigs/destroyers be?

I'm a lowsec pirate who flies an Incursus almost exclusively. I have a 3:1 kill/loss ratio; it would be better except I'm always testing my limits and springing traps. In solo PvP, I've destroyed most other T1 frigates and destroyers (Rifters and Punishers can give me trouble), any industrial ship or mining barge, most cruisers, and some battlecruisers. When I die, I lose about 700K ISK; my winnings are many multiples of that.
I'm at the point now of trying out cruisers, and so far I don't like them as much. I feel like I'm flying around with a big neon sign saying "gank me!" In a cruiser, I die at gatecamps; in my Incursus, I don't. In my cruiser, if I don't warp in right on top of my foe, he gets away if he's paying attention; in my Incursus, I can usually MWD over to him in a jiff. In my Incursus, I fast-orbit around bigger ships, making it hard for them to hit me; in a cruiser, I can count on getting hit (though at least I have a tank when it happens).
As we all know, there is a role for almost any ship in the EVE lineup; I certainly plan to add bigger ships and T2 ships to my stable. But for cost-effective piracy and traveling solo through lowsec, I'll take a T1 frigate any day.
