T2 warriors. Beyond that, you're up the creek if you are fitting a talos with small turrets.

Flight of Warriors, Duel Web if Armor Fit.

Fact is if you are going to lower your Gun Size you might as well use a Small Neutron Vexor with a DDA.

Suggestions above are good except for one - if you're fighting frigs in a BC, fit light turrets, not medium ones, and light scout drones, not medium. You won't be able to hit anything if your turrets can't track it.

You might also find this helpful.

I've had really good luck with a web.

I haven't much experience flying the Talos, but wouldn't a Neut work fine against frigs ? Add some drones and a web and the job is pretty much done.

Close range frigs are going to melt you and long range frigs wouldn't be neuted anyway. You gotta be careful with them no matter what you do, but I feel that the Talos is uniquely suited to survive against frigs (relative to the other Tier 3s). The Tornado is next because of the extra mid and speed.

If its for just killing frigs, scram and web is the way to go. Fit Electron blaster Cannon's for the best tracking (meta4 or t2).

With 2-3 tracking enhancers, it tracks just as well as small artillery...

edit*

5x warrior II's will turn most frigates to paste.

If you intend to fight mostly frigs, choose another ship.

However with enough range to mitigate the transversal and the flight of lights, you can kill bads even with normal Taloses:

Competent frig and especially AF pilots will ruin your day, unless you can surprise them.

Still, because it's not completely useless against frigs, Talos is my favourite lowsec roaming ship.
