The best stealth bomber is the one you don't bring into my gangs. I would rather have a rifter in my gang than a stealth bomber.
Utterly useless for the vast majority of the fighting you'll do, and only slightly more valuable for gangs requiring stealth and quick moving.

With this setup I have torn apart everything from badgers to ravens solo. In groups I get used as a scout, anti falcon, anti support and for warp in points. It is also very good at Breaking tanks of hard targets when in small gangs.

well.....when i decided to pick which SB to go for, outta the 4..
i picked the Hound..i used the compare tool and eventually just decided the hound suited my play style best...ofc since the ONLY goal of the account skilling is for the hound, he's gonna become a pure maximised account. if on the other hand a player wants to do other stuff with his account, i'd suggest manticore, after all, an SB does require an f'load of skills to get good, especially in the missile department, so might as well train caldari. |

I lived by this for more than two and a half years, Then i took a hound out in a hac gang and found myself on the top, or in the top three, on ever kill i was involved in  there's something pleasing when you're little frig does 12K damage to a tempest

the best stealth bomber is whichever type your opponent is flying, they blow up equally fast. |

You may wish to conclude from this that they do indeed suck!
However thats not entirely true, they do have uses, just they are few and far between. |

They suck now. They didnt suck before the RSD Nerf, and they slightly sucked after (You could use 2 RSD's). Now they are worthless against anything that isnt fail fit or n00b piloted. When an Inty tanks you at 15km and wears you down and you watch your missle group hit for 50 thats pretty FAIL. (And this is with Max missle skills). |

I should have also pointed out i hover around 170km, well beyond the range rsd can, or could eve, be used in. I agree the uses are few and far between, but it still amazes me people complain about them not being viable when use close range (relatively speak) despite them being specifically gear for long range bombardment.
Somewhere between 180-190 km should be around the max range. |

they suck... a noobrifter would kill a bomber now after changes since the missiles hits a frig for like 100 damage.. before speednerf they were atleast a litle scary if they had a webb or cough something not at mwd speed :)
and for you saying its grate for dps or sitting at 200km... a ranis does probobly more dps and is usefull for gang, allso check out claw and sader. oh and if you sit at long range with a bomber it will take missiles forever to hit... any untakled target will warp off..
if you want range I sugest you use a cormrant, thrasher or harpy.. atleast they got instadamage and can actualy hurt frigs |

Perhaps if you lot stopped attacking frigates with cruise missiles and started hitting haulers and cruisers you wouldnt burn up as much...

Fly what is fun for you - if your FC allows it  !
To answer your question - each SB has a bonus for a certain damage type. So it all depends on your target. Crosstraining for a different race does not take long at all when it comes to frigs.

Bombers have been crippled since the missile nerf. They need a bonus to explosion velocity to become even remotely useful again.

No, people should stop thinking the role of SB is to onevolley frigs and inties. |

I'd say go for the Nemesis, because of the mid slots, you can fit a damp a TP and 2 sensor boosters on it...
Then again, I'm biased... <3 Gallente for no real reason.

To be fair if we worked with most ships in game based on the description there'd more whines than ever in here. |

The damage numbers quoted here. Are they faction missiles or T2 precision missiles? The latter appear to have little better explosion velocity and drop off slower as explosion velocity is exceeded. |

Id rather go by my experience with the ship than a bit of text. Even before the missile nerf I wouldnt engage frigates. |
