My opinion on how it should look.

Here are some conservative changes to assault frigates. These changes keep all other classes of frigates in mind. For example: navy faction, pirate faction and Interceptor will be capable of engaging assault frigates as effectively as they can now. Keeping rock paper scissors. Instead of assault frigate = everything... I'm interested in other pilots ideas of what changes to assault frigates should look like. If you could please use the fromat below. That would be pretty cool.


ASSAULT FRIGATE:

Role bonus: 50% bonus to Capacitor

Retribution

Added bonus: 5% bonus to Small Energy Turret tracking speed per skill level.
Remove (- 1) High slot
+1 mid slot
+15 CPU

Slower than a Slicer, but has better defences, damage and tracking.


Vengance

Added bonus: 5% bonus to missile explosion velocity
+10 CPU

There's not much you can do to this ship without making it overwelming. However, increasing applied damage threw increased explosion velocity seems good.

Harpy

Added bonus: -5% bonus to shield resistances
+10 CPU

Serious defensive ability, projected and applied damage. Looks good too, which is pretty important...

Hawk

Added bonus: 5% bonus to missile explosion velocity
Remove - 1 High slot
+1 mid slot
+10 CPU

The Hawk should be allowed to keep it's defensive ability. However, increasing applied damage threw increased explosion velocity. Will not limit this ship versus other frigates, in anyway.

Enyo

Added bonus: +5% damage changed to 10% bonus to damage
Remove - 1 low slot
+1 mid slot
+10 CPU
+ 5 powergrid

Midslot and damage stays. However, this ship defensive ability has been reduced. Although, CPU and Powergrid are increased for flexibility in fittings.

Ishkur

Added bonus: 10% bonus to drone hitpoints per level
Drone bay increased by 25m3
+10 CPU

Reduced this ships defensive capabilities and increased versatility. By increasing drone bay.

Jaguar

Added bonus: 7.5% bonus to Small Projectile Turret Tracking per level
+15 CPU
7 powergrid

CPU and Powergrid are increased for flexibility in fittings. Tracking is a GO!

Wolf

Added bonus: 7.5% bonus to Small Projectile Turret Tracking per level
+12 CPU
+ 7 powergrid

CPU and Powergrid are increased for flexibility in fittings. Tracking is a GO!


THOUGHTS!?
