P.S. Just because you cannot take on a salvager or raba and win, it doesn't mean that it cannot be done.
P.P.S. Next time try not using a transport.
Cheers
Best comment here. Valid reasoning points made.

Lythrilux is absolutely right here. These frigates have more repair commodities than gunboats and since they can trade on their own, they should be at least harrassed on one's own too. I'd say lower the repairs to 500 and that might be a good start.

I'd say 400 would be more balanced, given their current stats.

Well real question here is how many times can those two ships regen in fight??
Imagine that fighters and bombers can regen zilion times in fight.
How about that every ship can regen same amount of times?

Repeating it again "Frigate".
If you want to decrease regen counts rename it into a "Transport" then pls, stop confusing people.

The ship can survive almost anything. Just strap a few Solaris on it and here you go, bomber killer. Also, missiles. They can also use missiles. As Lyth mentioned before, if the player behind the Salvager can use a mouse and a keyboard, then fighters/bombers/other transports don't stand much of a chance against it. Hell, it can even use Cerbeus instead of Charons. Add those and a missile and you're set to pirate transports and be defended from snubs.
Kinda hard to pirate when you ahve no cd's wouldn't you say? As for handling off fighters and bombers tell that to the faze guys that shoot salvagers down with not so much trouble.
Not many people are PvPlords, tyvm.

I think 450/500 is enough. The Salvager has 160k armor after all.

Names don't really matter much anyway. We have people who mount Battleship Scanners on transports after all.

I don't remember whether it was mentioned:
It can also solo-mine the highest-rated ore in the game.

400-500 is a lot more reasonable.
Wasn't Sally down around that number in the past? 750 is like a Storta.
I'd say let raba keep the huge amount of regens, as it has a tiny cargo hold and isn't a popular ship.
