If you could choose any Recon ship for solo/small gang pvp, which one would you go for and why??

Tough choice between Falcon and Rapier.
Originally by: IHeartYou However, Crows seem to suit me best because it's just so much fun to toy with your target, then own them with your 150-200dps.

I refuse to decloak my recon in this thread because the winner will most likely get nerfed.

Curse... Still the Curse. So many folks talk about how this Recon sucks now post Nos, Sensor Damp and supposed Drone nerfs but it still rocks.
Great dps for it's class of ship, fast, can be fit up relatively cheaply or pimped and even passive ships find it a pain to have their cap drained as much as the Curse does.
Even cap boosted ships are going to have a hard time outlasting the Curse's cap draining ability if in the hands of a pilot who knows how to manage their cap properly.

This i dont understand, and someone enlighten me, but why are people picking a curse to fly for solo instead of a sacrilege?

Rapier. Your targets when solo are limited in size, and usually people make things go faster the smaller they are, therefore the web bonus is pure win. Ability to use cov ops II cloaker is pure win. When in a gang there is always something worth webbing, and vaga pilots do not like rapiers at all, and seeing a ship that gets so many whinetards talking about it running away from you at first sight is an epeen boosts. Epeen boosts are pure win.

Because a Sac isn't a recon, which is what the OP's title asked for.

This was more directed to the people who prefer a curse as a solo ship instead of a sacri, Im wondering why. So? Is there any reason to pick a curse?

well because in a sac ur trying to break their tank with ur 400-450dps max skilled missiles plus drone which mos nano sac's dont even deploy. Where as the curse u are removing their ability to tank by crippling their cap. yeah it only does crappy dps with its 5 medium T2 drones like what 220-240dps but u cripple their ability to tank what so ever.
The best recon is still the curse there isnt a ship that ppl are scared of more. Plus they are cheaper now that not many ppl know how to fly them properly :P makes teh wallet go a little further -------------------------------------------------- It is not what u are underneath, but what you do that defines you |

Likely because in the curse you dictate the terms of the engagement, whereas, like most armor tankers that aren't going quickly, with the Sac once your in you are in it for the long haul and you aren't likely coming out until someone is dead.
In the Curse you've a much better chance of bugging out or maneuvering beyond their weapon range before you are caught and dead. And with 2xLSEIIs you get a hefty buffer on the shields to ensure your survivability.

Solo: Huginn. Nanos up nice, does a good dps, and ... long range webbing.
Small gang... depends how small. Falcons are quite good gang support, but they suffer from 'ultra pitiful dps' syndrome. So... *shrug* probably a huginn too. Or maybe a rapier. -- Crane needs more grid 249km locking? |

Because the Curse is a Recon and the Sacrilege is a HAC... and the question was asked "What's your favorite Recon?", not "What's your favorite HAC?"

If I'm going solo I'll flee the second I see a curse on scanner :P Unless I have good reason to think the pilot sucks :)

Which is exactly why it is not a good ship - because no one wants to fight it. You jump into a system and everybody starts running around like chickens with their heads cut off - safespots, cloaks, logoffski, station, turn off computer and hide under bed, etc.

falcon, because when you absolutely must annoy as many opponents as possible then dissapear before the consequeces... this is the tool for the job. and my character being 'special forces' it feels like the most in character ship possible. _____________________________________ today i am this cool: [uncool]================[*]====[cool]

Pilgrim because, in theory, it fits my preferred play style perfectly.
Sadly the ship, like many Amarr boats, has a number of small issues which combine to make it very hard to use. . .. WELP! .. . |

By that logic, the Ferox is the most awesome ship in EVE... -- Crane needs more grid 249km locking? |

People run from a Ferox? Or do you mean you can awesomely fit it and people will just offhandedly attack it expecting to loot a wreck and get surprised? _______________________________________________ Minmatar will always go faster than you, get over it. |
