The only hybrid Caldari i've flow are the harpy (in both snarpy and blarpy configs). A sniper harpy (snarpy) is a great ship for frig gangs. I'm currently on a kick with the Eagle in nano-LR gangs.

Pros:
It's cheap
Very flexible DPS (optimals from 20KM to 150 with T2 ammos, and everything inbetween)
Good Alpha, Good DPS
Very high resists (hi scimi friends)
Cons
Not as much alpha as a muninn
Slower than most nano cruisers (just overheat a lot to compensate)
You need to carry several different types of ammo (both t2 types, antimatter, iridium, and uranium are what I use)
In short, it's pretty much the same alpha/dps as a sniper diemost with a better tank and less speed. Been flying this fit for about 3months, lost one so far out of maybe 10 uses. |

You are still talking about the eagle, right?
Yes, it's "good"....not very good, and not great. But as I said, it's on par with a sniper fit diemost. So to sum it up, it's viable...certainly not the best for this role...but who wants to fly the same ship (ie a muninn) all the time? |

I don't know the stats on a sniper zealot of the top of my head in terms of dps/alpha. I do know the Eagle's dps/alpha is marginally lower (5%) than a diemost. A well tanked sniper cerb does 50 more dps with about double the alpha but....delayed DPS is a big problem against anything less than battleships (ie you basically do no damage unless you shoot only secondary targets).
What I mean is that post hybrid buff I think an Eagle should be considered respectable even at typical (non-extreme) ranges particularly given the cost of the ship compared to others in the same role. Last time I checked it was about 20% cheaper to buy and fit a hull than the others. |
