Dragoon is a mix of missiles and turrets which makes it a pain to fit for PvE. For PvP this works as you can make it a mini - curse with neuts, but why would you ever want this for PvE?

1/10 for the Troll.

Dragoon is a destroyer not a BS.

But...but I'd really like such an Amarr BS! 4x 50km heavy neuts + tons of drones with bonus anyone? Shocked

Why do people ever fly an Arbitrator in PvE? Those high slots can be used for any number of things, you'll be dealing damage with drones most of the time anyway.

I really wish it was 4/4. That way I could go 2 Neuts and 4 weapons that match up.

I know that the ship is ugly with it's fat pregnant Coercer looks, but calling it a battleship is going a weeee bit too far, ain't it?

Nah, it'd be more like a Dominix with a neut/Nos bonus instead of a hybrid damage bonus

To be honest, I consider the Dragoon to be the second coolest new destroyer, right after the mighty Corax. Talwar comes third a bit behind the both and Algos far behind them all. Aesthetics are always subjective, some people will love one thing, others another.

Dragoon with all neuts can easily cap out a frig in one cycle, or damn close to it.
