What if Mach and Vindi had their Speed/Agility/Mass switched?

Think about it, Mach has 70km and 160km weapons while Vindi has 19km and 100km weapons (Of course Mach does have falloff, but hybrids are about half optimal and half falloff (and of course nobody really uses rails or arty's except for maybe PvE))

If Vindi was as fast as the Mach it would make it much for viable for more than just station/gate camping, Mach is like a cruiser with battleship EHP and DPS.

Or maybe it would make it too OP? Perhaps if so, reduce the speed and agility of the Vindi a little.

Thoughts?

You're pointing out the elephant in the room. There are a few cases where things should be switched but it's not going to happen since we don't want 3 weapon systems dong the same thing. It's unlikely that'll happen and we'll probably see CCP work around this the best they can.

Rails and artys are used quite a lot nowdays in pvp actually since it's more and more about projecting damage in the 70-100km range.
