In my humble opinion, the Curse is massivly overrated when flown outside a solo/very small gang situation. It doesn't have a lot of tank, it doesn't have a lot of range, and its EWAR is limited - in a gang fight if you TD something it can often shoot something closer / moving more slowly instead and it is easily countered by the X+1'th ship, often regardless of what X+1 is (HAC, BC, BS, ceptor, etc). Neuts are of limited use because things will use cap boosters while you neut them and many ships need very little cap (armor buffered AC ships? w/e).
THAT BEING SAID
I am a terrible curse pilot and I don't fly EWAR ships in general. |

i wish my ****ing hurricane did 850 DPS :(
My Drake does 850 DPS. 
Well, actually, it doesn't. But if I had max skills, 5% missile ROF and HAM damage implants, Terror Rage and 5x Hobgoblin IIs, and then I overloaded the HAMLs, a triple-BCS Drake would do 850 DPS at ~17 km. 
Of course, by those absurd rules, the other BCs could probably get over 1000 DPS.
I can't get the Harbinger over 926/934 (AN Multi/Conflag) without faction gear and officer implants - max skills, 5% damage, 5% RoF, hammer IIs, 3x HS, overloaded heavy pulse lasers... don't know what I'm missing. |

EDIT: Terriana, I've seen you agreeing in many other posts that in general, the Harbinger is a better ship. 
1 r, 2 n's
I know I've said the Harbinger is more flexible. I don't think I've said it's objectively or strictly better.
And the Zealot is much, much faster than the harbinger... 2100+ m/s overloaded is plenty fast enough to get back to a gate. Hell, it's about fast enough to burn AWAY from the gate and leave. (but not quite) |

Yeah, I understand those points.
As I said, it's a question of playstyle. (I personally don't enjoy flying glass cannons.)
Don't think of it as a glass cannon. Think of it as a "doesn't stay around long enough to get shot at cannon"
A glass cannon with WHEELS :D whooooooosh~
