You know, just because I disagree with you on bubble immunity doesn’t mean I’m an idiot or I know nothing about frigate warfare in EVE. And interceptors where widely flown in 2011 already. They were the first ship you told a noob to skill for, because it allows for convenient travel in nullsec and is the best ship to get the initial tackle and hope to survive. It was the cheapest too back then, and it’s nimble and fast enough to survive on any battlefield. > [@Lugburz](#): > > enyo if fitted for speed… can still have 22k (15second) ehp slightly more speed than taranis and same dps. And this Enyo is a shitfit AF. It has more signature and less agility than the taranis, and the taranis can fit one nanofiber or overdrive and now be faster than the Enyo will _ever_ be, whatever the number of speed mods you fit to it. As for the wolf, it only has two midslots, so the only interceptor you can really compare it to is the crusader which is a lot faster than the crow. Bubble immunity was a stupid idea from the begining. And if anything changed with all the additions the game received, it made interceptors better than before. When everything gets faster and ways to kill frigates more available, the fastest and the most nimble of them is still the best to capitalize on speed and nimbleness to survive, and it’s more useful than ever to catch the fast ■■■■ that zip around at faster speeds than before. What you are actualy saying here is that these abilities are worthless when you get _enough_ of it. Or when you shitfit another ship for the job. That cannot be proven though. Nor can the opposite proposition. The facts are that interceptors are still the fastest ships, and the AF you are showing with stupid fits are not flown in game, which proves that people don’t fly AF instead of interceptors to do actual interceptor job. And finaly, comparing interceptors to AF for dueling purpose is missing the point. Interceptors are not dueling frigates. Some can of course do it, but so can electronic attack frigates. An interceptor is not meant to brawl an AF. It’s meant to tackle anything, and it can do it because it’s faster than everything. An interceptor is not a frigate with another name. ---

And to emphasize the stupidity of arguments based on “AF are better because of this shitfit”, I made mine : [Zealot, shitfit] Heat Sink II Reactor Control Unit II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Tracking Enhancer II Assault Damage Control II Medium Ancillary Armor Repairer, Nanite Repair Paste Warp Scrambler II 500MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive Stasis Webifier II Quad Light Beam Laser II, Gleam M Quad Light Beam Laser II, Gleam M Quad Light Beam Laser II, Gleam M Quad Light Beam Laser II, Gleam M Quad Light Beam Laser II, Gleam M [Empty Rig slot] [Empty Rig slot] Warrior II x5 Warrior II x5 There. A better AF AND a better interceptor. Goes to 5kms cold. 530dps. 42kehp for 15 seconds and a MAAR. And you add whatever you want in the rig slots still. And since signature, agility and everything is irrelevant, please do not look at them. Of course I decline any liability if someone is killed in this fit. But it’s the same for every balance discussion. Stupid people come with stupid fits no one has or will ever fly to “prove their point”. But shitfit don’t prove anything. Now if you want to bring a good argument, bring a fit that is actualy flown in game. ---

I don’t know, they could do different things with them, like dscan immunity plus faster warp speed. I just hope it’s not a “+2 pg +1 cpu +5m/s” lazy fix. ---

with all the changes since nullification was added i can only see them nerfing other ships as a ‘‘balance’’ pass.

You seriously have trouble to make the difference between an argument and an opinion. > [@Lugburz](#): > > the second is literally the stupidest thing ive re-read this morning as clearly yes, YES the value of an argument does depend on where it is coming from… Absolutely not. Actualy, when you refer to the person that says something to give it value it is called and argument of authority. An argument of authority has value _only_ to people with absolutely no insight about the problem AND not able to think about it. And even then it’s a weak “argument”. In practice, an argument of authority is a falacy. Also, when someone refer to his own authority to despise other people’s opinions, it’s called _arrogance_. Which is not a good atitude to discuss anything. ---

Instead of buffing combat inties they should just keep nerfing other small ships. AFs are too tanky for their speed. Next let’s remove sub2 align times from all frigates. ---

Well, when you’ll say something relevant I’ll be able to answer, but that didn’t happened for a long time now. Oh, sorry, actualy it didn’t happened at all because you can’t think about any argument besides “I know better than you”, which is not an argument. ---

By far the best non-discussion I ever had on EVE forums. At least in the past people were discussing the topic instead of gossiping and calling names. Well, ok, names were called, but there was substance to it. On the other hand it’s the first time my own person is that important in a debate. But this rephrasing of yours… come on ! are you twelve ? I mean, the only escalation left to me now would be “mirror mirror what you say is what you are”, if that’s how you say it in your country. ---

To me when you say combat interceptor the idea of a fast high damage 20-30km projection platform with paper tank comes to mind. But atm it’s a fast low projections paper damage paper tank platform, no one will fly them until they are reworked.
