wait till you meet cruise missile raven with precision t2 missiles and neutralizers + drones :) you will die in few seconds, or other missile or drone bazed BC/BS/Hac.
Af are useless anyway
if you had followed this topic in the forum carefully you would know that ccp will also balance missiles to be inline with the changes ;P OH NOES your dreambubble collapse! your drones die fast to a 200+ dps frigate and you can counter a neut easily.

I predict that this may also lead to a minor resurgence in smartbombs being fitted to battleships.
like smartbombs dmg would be enough to take down an assault frig

hmm oke thats true but drones dps is not that significant except on some boats with dmg bonus, I would always take a remote rep on my bs for my gang over a smarty.

A blaster harpy can go over 250dps and still keep a decent tank and afterburner, it can even get near 300dps with a damage rig. Assault frigs can't be that useless especially if they're getting boosted with the patch.
try and hit the broad side of a barn while orbiting at speed on a blaster harpy though, even if you manage to hit a little you are not pulling anywhere near 250 with all the misses
I did the math and even with AB on, you will hit 75-95% of time for full dmg because of the fact that your are moving slower to keep orbit and you will be probably webbed too.
btw I think AS still need they lost 4th bonus.

You might not hit another frig orbitting at full speed, but you will hit a cruiser very well due to your weapon sig resolution vs cruiser sig radius acting as a 3-4x multiplier for your tracking. If you're still missing a cruiser, you can safely slow down a bit or even turn ab off, if you can't hit with small blaster tracking (times 3-4x), the cruiser sure as hell won't hit you with cruiser gun tracking (divided by 3-4 for same reason).
My sisi testing with a rifter against a thorax proved this pretty well, unwebbed with or without ab the only risk was the drones. Basically it seems that you need to fit same mods as the cruiser as a bare minimum, eg. if you only have scram, you might be in trouble if the cruiser as either ab or a web, if you have ab+scram, you're safe unless the cruiser has ab+web or dual webs.
he will hit frigs very well too except maybe some ghey interceptors but those go down pretty fast against an AS =P

ishkur > vengeance
who cares if you can tank 200 dps when every ship can tank yours, and btw hf with relocking drones all the time, with you pathetic dmg you wont even dent the drones shields in time before the pilot calls them in & out, switching drones while the damaged one recharges shields back.
