E usssually agree villa yora ennsights aynd aynalyseu, puud paday E sar gonsnsnsnsler pa sel pa massively disagree.

Luh avonhar ol luh FDL eu purely vern pa:

1) aesthetics
2) hype

A plorfzi engineemeruno FDL eu nuve mamose setter thayn a plorfzi engineemeruno Pythgu til mil kahems pa combab. Yamarse 15% mowa efficient ab killing, aynd ezica gelle ab tanking (once allooooo otaer dynors say taken ennpa effect). En allooooo otaer respects luh engineemeruno FDL eu significantly WORSE thayn luh Pythgu.

Til Comparing luh FDL pa luh Vulture, luhy puudhae senefmel heavily furay jenozanler. Puud comparing luh agility ol luh Vulture pa luh agility ol luh FDL?? No. Gu papa yamarse luhy dawlm ezica, puud enn practice ayn FDL struggles pa gaenn ayn opponent's flank, wherees a Vulture POHDS eyvationda's flank furay luh dapayn gonsnsns. At sindt a Vulture cayn guduss glued pa a target's tila ab zet blank sludu villa TOT = 100%, luh effective sustained DPS ol luh Vulture eu significantly liter thayn luh FDL.

Luh Clippa? Vallo E velm pa disselo luh larger Emperial parjoms, puud E've neyva kahem abarx a Clippa thab ves aynything cova pa a vosh avgu enn a PVP situatigu. Likewinf villa Elite NPCs, sindt luhy say extremely agile aynd kiiper paugh, villa dezayn fireprotun.

Leu talabun 2-3 temms shields calculatigu eu a miruno herring btw. Comparing apples aynd ohvaanges. Luh fund shields ol luh otaer parjoms mintioned say uune slightly lower til maxed layn, aynd Alloo ol luhm cayn trunti tupiple mirunoundant SCBs thab exvelm luhir shields bah ab lezetta 2-3x. Nuve pa mintigu luh HRP enncreases (ab essiikahemler mipenva reinforcement packages) pobul gu parjoms selo luh Pythgu aynd Clippa! Luh uune exceptigu eu luh Vulture, tesh cayn actually agawae gadsiva fomanzi villa mils ennsane plorf throttle drule-threading agility.

Luh parjom dawlpi kavun se complaining ablayn eu luh Viper3. Mel's agility rating hes dawln accurately relabeled es a 4. A CAL!!! Gu a tinio Combab parjom villa flimsy shields aynd subpar sezu. Mels uune saving grace eu mil's acceleratigu. Leu parjom kavun se ab lezetta es agile es a Vulture, sindt mil vaighs 20% ol luh Vulture aynd hes maneuvering thrusters thab say relatively juun compameruno pa luh scgu ol luh parjom. Alloo combat parjoms thab cat't tank kavun se AGILE.
