So how are those HFs holding up?

[Lythrilux]

Give them 355 to 375 cruise speed please.

Heyna.

The Hyena is still bigger than a templar, its class9 shield doesn't allowa good jousting/boxing tactic.

The lack of firepower makes all succesfull outurning, not worth it.

The inability to fire a tartarus makes the torp Hardpoint almost useless.

To sum up i'd rather fly a hundred time a chamelon than a heyna.


I'd say due to its enormous size, the heyna should be a VHF ( or strap another gun or two )

I've always loved how agile the Chameleon is. The only crappy thing about it in 4.86 was the general weakness of Gaian tech.

Must agree.

Even for a VHF it's big. But then again, I agree it should rather be a VHF than an HF.


About HFs...afaik the Marauder remains unchanged, that one always did decently alright. Feels a bit like a faster VHF with weak hull, low firepower and a weaker shield though. With missiles now the agility counts a bit less and the hull a bit more. What kills the ship now is the low BB count, which is barely above LF levels.

To the "real" HFs ... I haven't flown any of CD+Torp slotted HFs tbh. I should maybe try one of them though, since I love MRing people...from looking at it, I'd say you are better off with either a LF or a VHF. (Also, there are too few CD+Torp HFs to actually give a good look at them, few people fly them.)

Too specialized for my taste, useless if you are not with perfect aim or heavy MR user.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)
