What is the fail Worm doing there and why haven't you listed neither the Wolf or Claw?

Has the Ranis become good/common again with hybrid tweak or did you merely include it for nostalgic reasons Smile?

Slicer seriously needs to be on that list, very versatile and probably the only of the navy frigs that does well both as kiter and brawler (not with same fit) .. Hook is close to same capability though.

The Ranis and Comet are both pretty pro these days, IMO. Though I have to admit that I'm really digging the Harpy a lot. :)

Haven't flown a Daredevil post-Crucible, but even beforehand they were badass.
With the buffs, they can only have gotten better.

I find the lack of Rifter in this thread disturbing

The trouble with this thread is that there is so little solo frig work anymore, it's all cruiser faggotry these days.

I fly gallente, so naturally none of my frigates are worth a damn.

Dram
Wolf
DD
Hookbill
Worm

Dram even after nerf has the most ability to dictate range, and therefore win
Wolf ganks pro
DD when you're rockin rails, things die. When you're rockin blasters, you die. Fit rails
Hookbil gets it done
Worm gets other people done if you're paying attention

The reason you don't see the ishkur, enyo, and comet listed is because the ishkur and the comet add the complication of being drone boats that armor tank which make them sitting ducks in close quarters, and in the enyo's case the fitting options for range are a serious pain in the bawlz. The result in gallente ships is that they hit less hard fit for range but don't move any faster, you will die that way. If you fit brawler, you will die trying to get favorable range unless you're lucky.

I fly Gallente solo plenty, even before patch. I don't really have a problem with close range with drones. Depending on the day I make my top 5 list is could easily be in there at number 2.

I haven't put Rifters on the list because I think they are overused and predictable.

Yeah thats why I tend to avoid flying Rifters, they are pretty predictable.

Except this seems to catch ppl off guard... http://judelloyd.griefwatch.net/?p=details&kill=2281
