Frigate OP?

[Frappe]

I think that some frigates are to op i almost get oneshotted by a 1T Frigate and i have a 2T interceptor

[Exroath]

Your in an interceptor, you have low health?? dont fly straight?

[The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard]

Frigates are only overpowered if you let them keep them keep their distance. as a frigate player, I learned this the hard way when a interceptor or fighter got close to my frig. it's a slow and painful death for the frigate involved.

[Vincil]

I don't see how a frigate could possible get close to one shooting a interceptor unless it was a disintegrator.

The most damage I have been able to do in one shot as a T2 frig was 1500, but it usually is 1000 if I get a direct hit and 200 against those fast moving interceptors.

In my opinion, frigs need a buff as they suck in combat, and can *easily* be killed by interceptors and even fighters.

If an interceptor sneeks up on a frigate, that frigate will have a bad day. As an interceptor try using cover and avoid flying in predictable paths. Remember, you're squishiy.

Frigates are not OP, they are one of the Classes that requires their Skills and Equptment. They are Mobile Weapon Plattforms, have 6 Guns but are not so fast (only the Federation ones). They have Support Modules that can turn the Battle for your Side but 1v1 a Frigates is as good as dead against a good Fighter or Interceptor Pilot. The Only Way to kill them are Pulsars, which have long Cooldown, and Minefield but they are limited and cant be used forever. After that its dead. The good Frigateplayers know how to kill you, they keep their distance and kill you with their 6 Guns fast! But as you come close to them they cant turn fast enought to hit you if you circle around them, easy kill.

I love my Frigates because i am a Supporter, i give my Allies Buffs and weak the Enemy and help them to kill or capture. I like that as a Teamplayer and get Points for Buffing or Debuffing. The Only Thing which is OP on Frigates are their Pilots and their 6 Guns. If you remove the Guns its a big Junk in Space.

i've hit interceptors for upwards of 4000 damage with hail plasma guns

You're in an inty. You can, and will most likely, get 1shot. If you let them hit you. Don't approach them straight on from an open field, it will be the death of you. Utililize cover to approach frigates, preferably with none of their friends around you will be off radar.

Additionally when fighting them, especially at lower tiers before they get pulsars, fly into their dead spots where they can't aim their guns since you will be off screen, usually directly below their ship and stay below it and they wont be able to hit you with their multiple lazorz.

1on1 most frigs will DIAF, they do not need a nerf at all. Sure they have a ****ton of hp, but my imp fighter disintegrates their hps and without multiple support or helping each other I will eat them for breakfast. Tougher in an inty since you have little hp though, you have to avoid taking damage. Pulsars will kill you. Fed frig drones will kill you. It can be done, and they do not need a nerf.

The problem for the INTERCEPTOR going on the FRIGGATE is the fact that we kill them so increadably slow, his team has time to respawn and come help him before I am done with the hull.

That, and your own team aren't smart enough to help.

So the unit that deals the most damage killed the lowest health unit in the game? I dont see why this is surprising.

if you dodge frigates will have a very hard time hitting you in an interceptor because of their insane speed.

[Zeus]

the intercepter does not have good shields or hull strength but it makes up for it in speed. Once in a while you can find one with good hull strength and shield strenght. I personaly do not like to use intercepter because of that fact but the other ships are just as good if not better but that is just my opinion but if I ever do use a intercepter I use the one with the hyperdrive built into it, that way I can get to the opjective quickly while staying away from most combat areas.

interceptors are good disablers and handy to have in a fight and good for killing the enemy captain quickly with their microwarp.

Ints go splat when my alligator gets ahold of them. =)

If you attack a fed frig in an interceptor your gunna have a bad time.
