So I was looking at a reaper and felt it was a shame that such a lovely frig model has such ... "subpar" stats.

Could a badass T2/faction version be provided in form of a stepping to T2 navy faction/AF alternative sort of frig?

No need to talk of Epeen of rookie ship kills, this does not actually concern them since I suggest no change to them, just a cheap potential for yet another ship alternative. Thank you

Come get some cancer @ my blog !

I'm not really seeing a compelling gameplay reason to do this. They're not filling any kind of role, there's not really an economic niche to fill between T1 and T2/Faction, and T2 is supposed to be specialized ships not ships that compete with Faction Frigs directly. AFs only break this rule because they pre-date it and CCP didn't have another role for them that didn't invalidate skill training already put into AFs.

There comes a point where the "stepping stones" are so close together that there is no room to fit another stone between.

The differences between a Tech 1, Faction, and Tech 2 are either so close or well defined (without being too gimmicky) that I do not see room in the lineup for another.

Maybe a specialized cyno ship as mentioned above... but that is a stretch.

How did you Veterans start?

Definitelly something to go for and kill AFs altogether Come get some cancer @ my blog ! "This clash of opinions is like cutting onions.
