No, because I believe you can get the same DPS out of a HAM tengu with better range, tank and the ability to change damage types (even though non-kinetic will suffer). If you want hybrids, the proteus would probably serve you better.

^ this.

There's a reason there are some cookie cutter Tengu fits that are almost always used as a base. They're basically optimal for the ship, its bonuses, stats and slot layout.

This one time, I like, totally did some stuff.

No because they made it so HAMS or HMLs are so godly in it. Aside from the time to impact all the other short comings of missiles can be nullified or minimized.

It's actually sick. I would like to see a viable blaster/rail tengu or a mini falcon, but it's too damn good with missiles it will never happen.

It's why CCP needs to revisit some subsystems, several are just useless in a sad way.


I wish railgun tengu and drone proteus were viable.

it's an even worse version of tiers than the tiering of t1 frigates. for a ship that is supposedly suppose to be able to adapt and change depending on the situation, the % of people that actually switch subsystems other than just best offensive to covert and back are slim to none. i'll add the jack of trades loki, to Ether's list above to just being completely sub par, when they are just as race tied and specific as their cookie cutter counter parts. the legion's HAM varient i won't consider in the same category since you almost see as many HAM legions as you do laser ones - mostly due to the laser one just being not that great.

Let's not forget the legion's drone and cloaky subsystem invites to this pity party Cry.

Hey, I use the legion's drone subsystem. My alt flies a legion that can salvage/hack/analyze while I'm running a wh site, while having his drones assist me. Not the normal use? I think that's the point.

Please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they're utterly unusable, but that I believe they could use a rebalance.

indeed. the tengu's grid engineering sub for example.

it's the sub that is supposedly to fit in with the rail offensive sub, but it's also the one with the smallest grid of all races.

Since Missiles are also some Gallente weapon system, I'd rather like some Ham's/HM's sub with thermal bonus, speed bonus.

I'd love to see it happen rather than drones because has it stands right now with only 5 drones and since the size of those is limited to drone bay and bandwidth , would make a just better myrmidon and such a worst Proteus.

I'm looking forward to see Roden give it some sub 5 ham's/hm's launchers, thermal dmg bonus, speed bonus.
