I am sorry to tell you gents, but the dual webs SUCK now. At 60% dual webbing on a target ONLY traveling 4750 m/s (interceptor or fast tackle frig), the new speed while being webbed is about 750 m/s. How can you consider this dead slow? The Huginn and Rapier are now TP recons rather than webbing recons. Webs are now USELESS, whereas warp scrambers are more effective at slowing down a target and dual pointing to boot. Minnie recons are useless, especially the Huginn.

I agree that the huggin and rapier are supposed to be used with distance rather than short range, but that still doesnt change the fact that a ceptor going almost 1km/s will get away whereas before they had to watch where they flew with huggins and rapiers on the field.

How. Lets just say that duel webbed inty is going 1000m/s (likely to be slower), your huginn or rapier will still be goin 1500 - 2500 m/s.
In other words the inty aint goin anywhere.
What is more of an issue is getting tackled up close by an inty/af .. then you gotta let your light drones do the work.
Yes of course on a 1v1 between a huginn/rapier versus a ceptor, the ceptor should die (as it was in TQ and is in QR). That is why a ceptor will never 1v1 a rapier/huginn.
Gate camp? Ceptor going 1km/s (and that is not to far fetched of a speed) can still move through a gate camp with ease. Whereas before, it was much more difficult (as it should be) with a rapier/huginn.
