Now that we've had crucible, is it any good?

The daredevil was always good. Blasters on frigates were the least broken of the hybrid guns, and the DD was, is and always will be a beautiful ship to fly.

And a sudden plunge in the sullen swell. Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell.

Get an Enyo. Same firepower as the DD. Much more EHP. Quarter of the price.

If you think people fly the DD for its EHP, then you're seriously missing the point of the ship...

Speed, Agility, and 90% webs vs. less EHP and ~60 million isk price difference. To each their own but I won't be flying a DD after the AF buff.

Price difference is irrelevent when you're flying a faction web rail DD with its exceptional speed/agility ontop of that, allowing it to dictate what and how long it is willing to stick in a fight. It has much better potential to last longer compared to an AF if both experince the same set of circumstances. Any short range AF is completely ****** useless against such, and any longer range one that puts up a strong enough fight isnt going to get the kill as the DD can scoot away.

Erm nope. DD is obsolete. Enyo is much better.

It's certainly not obsolete, just don't go leeroying the obvious AF's.

Daredevil is more mobile and has a 90% web, but the new Enyo looks hands-down win.

I guess I'll see in a few days when Gal Frig V finishes Twisted

DD is good if you like 90% web, and fast speed, that's pretty much all it has to offer above other frigs, it was already weak vs af's and now it is even more so, and everybody is flying af's now after buff xD
