I am a Gallente pilot that has recently been considering cross training for a couple minny ships. I have had my eye on the hurricane and wanted to get a bit of feed back. My current BC of choice is the brutix with a gank setup. The minny players in my corp rave about the cane. Putting them side by side in EFT both with close to the same stats I am having a hard time deciding.
The cane has about the same Effective HP's but slightly better resists. Its by far more cap effective and has better speed but I am getting about 125 less dps out of it then the brutix. It is also about 10 mil more expensive. What do you folks think? Brutix or Cane
?
Thanks!

i would say dont bother about EFT, if you want a cane, go get it!!!
EFT cant tell you accurately what it feels like to fly it, what the best way of handling a mission or pvp situation is. i would suggest if your planning to fly more than 1 minnie ship, cross train.
hboth all in all are great ships, but it realy depends on what your happy with...i fly a cane, but im happer in a Jag!!!! just my personal play style.

Its in EFT so its optimal. Figure the Cane will do about 60-70% of the shown DPS in most cases unless you stand right in under web range. At that point you may as well use the Brutix.

So as far as a close range gank ship goes, The Brutix is probably the way to go. What role does the cane excel in?

As far as close ranged gank ships go, Gallente ships 9 times out of 10 are the way to go. But then again, 9 times out of 10 a properly flown minmatar ship will kill the gallente gank ship by keeping out of its extremely close range.
You gotta remember that if a gallente blaster boat is going to be putting its awesome DPS to use, it usualy needs to be sitting still on top of its target.

I see it this way you want to take risk's the Brutix is better since you take a risk will you be able to close the range needed to do the damage.
If not cane and control the range and slowy pick the enemy apart form around 10-15km but over all its down to how you like to fly the ship.

Thanks!
the agility and the sig radius may be of importance fighting larger ships aswell. the cane out performs the brutix in that branch. also the ability to deal damage out of web range is a tactical advantage of the cane which can safe ur ass.
cap intependant weapons are also a advantage if u fighting BS fitted with nos or neuts.
the cons of the cane are its resilence. it tanks by far less dps than the brutix. the cane is a relativeley fast ac boat with more speed and less tank.
the brutix is a "do or die" ship with loads of dps and a formidable tank, but also a very tricky problem of insane cap dependance. all in all u should decide which ship u want to fly by whats fitting ur fighting style most.
for solo i would take the cane. for gang work the brutix with max dps/tank fitting.
