Have you ever tried using those BOP hangar units in PVP? LOL! I have... Talk about A-W-F-U-L!
Edit: I'm drifting OT a bit, but on thinking back on my time when I did PVP, Frigates in general were garbage. The better hangar units in PVP were due to their utility, because in terms of firepower, all hangar units were next to worthless in doing damage against players. This was why stuff like Elite Orion Interceptors, Yellowstones were far more useful and dangerous.
Have you ever tried Elite Plesh Brek breen raiders in PvP? They completely nuke the player's shields instantly with that tach beam, and they spam that beam all the time...
I had long stopped PVP before the Sarr Theln became playable. The last time I did it was around the time when Dyson Rep was introduced. Yes, that long ago
Everything else until that time I stopped, I've used, and there had been not many additions to the world of Carriers and Carrier Units that were ground breaking since. What you mentioned is interesting though, especially in light of Tachyon Beam improvements from a while back. I wonder how that will hold up after the nerf to drains occur with the upcoming Skill Revamp.
If Feds didn't know how to play a SCI Carrier on Atrox, what made people believe they'd do any better on the Jupiter?
But...but...but it doesn't have a Lt Cmdr Tac so you can't slot FaW III! So it automatically sucks! FaW Hard!
LOL! To be correct however, since the Atrox came out in the time of "Escorts Online" with "Why the hell are you not using DHCs, NOOB?" the Atrox was in double-trouble
I have SO little faith in the combat scripts AI of fighters that I try to make it as easy as possible for them to pew-pew: hence, I only get pets with beams. So - Elite Jem Figters (If you cant get the attack ships) and Elite Slavers for KDF and Yellowstone/Delta Flyers for Feds are my faves....and yes, Elite swarmers are pretty decent as well.
