PvE, HM. PvP, it depends.

PvP 75% of the time you want Heavy Missiles.

* They are more accurate.
* DPS is not that much lower.
* They can hit Targets from 1-70KM while HAM's are 1-20ish
* Fury Missiles make up the DPS difference in a Crunch.
* Heavies have better fitting.

HAM's are ok for warp-in's and Station Games but for Gangs, Fleets, Solo go Heavies.

In my wormhole hangar, I keep 5 HML drakes.....and 1 HAM drake.

The HAM drake is fitted with scram/dual webs for very specific situations.

The HML drakes are fitted various ways for the versatility they can provide.

In this past year, I can recall hopping into my HAM drake only 3 times...
