Greyhound...again

[MarvinCZ]

Greyhound definitely isn't useless as a support ship in piracy. It felt like a decent support ship in anti-cap, at least. Against the Cruisers and Battlecruisers I met together with two Werewolves. I'm sure I caused significant damage with MR, mines and even Sammaels. Mjolnir can testify.
It isn't useless against (very) large Graviton shields, at least as support. There's also always the possibility of mounting a Deb, which I'll probably do. My aim against fighters isn't that great these days, so I'll use the extra shield damage.

Killing LABCs with 3 fighters isn't horrible indeed. Mjolnir described what being pre-destined for something means. The ship is better at some things, worse at others. It doesn't mean you can't do the others. Of course skill has a huge importance on the final outcome. Greyhound isn't useless against transports or caps. It's worse at it than the Werewolf or Barghest, but it can add significantly.

I don't think it -needs- class 10 guns, especially if what you're looking for is damage against shields (it looked like it). The turret actually seems more useful there. You say that 5x lvl 9 is worse than 4x lvl 10 ? So are you saying you would like the old "4x lvl 10 without a turret" more?
