I'm sort of in the same boat.. on the one hand, the Ares is faster. On the other hand, the Taranis can carry two drones. Having been on the receiving end of those drones in an Inty fight, they're worth it.
I'm stuck on my 'ranis at the moment.

Not sure how much tackling a taranis does. An ares makes a good tackler, but if you want to wtfpwn any t1 frig, the taranis won't let you down. 200 DPS, hull tank like real warrior. Honorable warrior.

Ares for tackling above any other interceptors... ...until next patch. After that you'll probably want to say good bye to interceptors in general.

"boohoo! they nerfed my nanoboats!"
Give me a freaking break! Ceptors are going to be stronger than ever, even with the reduced speeds they're still king of speed and low sig.radius. What do you suggest is going to make them useless?

Ares for tackling. I love the Taranis but it has terrible targeting range. Even with Signature Analysis maxed you are going to only be able to target people up to like 25km out which can make tackling a bit of a pain. You're going to do shit for damage with the Ares if you even bother fitting guns at all but you will be able to go fast and stay pretty cap stable without using cap boosters which makes it a great tackler.
The Ares fit I use:
Lows:
1x Cap Relay
1x Nano
2x Overdrive
Mids:
1x MWD
1x 24km Scram
1x Cap Recharger
Highs:
Does it matter?

I need more sleep  You wanna know what came to mind while reading the thread?
- "What's a tackler without a scram?"
- "Kind of pointless."

How unfortunate then that interceptor and Vagabond speeds are being reduced by almost the same amount.

Right now an Ares fit for speed can go above 7 km/s with just tech 2 speed mods and nothing else. With the changes on the test server right now it will struggle to reach 5 km/s unless you start investing in implants and have gang bonuses helping you. An Ares that is only doing 5 km/s is not worth flying. Pretty much any frigate size turret will hit it, and even some medium turrets. Warrior II's will have it for lunch.
Oh, and a pimped out Vagabond will still be able to go faster than a cheap regular tech 2 fit Ares just like now.
