I regret never using Nova Knives.

One thing I really do regret is never using the CalScout to its greatest extent. I remember one battle where someone was in a CalScout and routinely dispatching everyone in sight (including me) and I realised some time later that it was their speed that was doing it - they could move so fast, noone could touch them. That was actually something I would have loved to really get into, if I had had the time. In EvE my favourite ships are the Caldari interceptors, small ultra-fast frigates that can just run rings around almost anything else in the game (other than another interceptor). Same deal - small and fast wins the day, I just wish I had have tried that....

Yes, I'm aware that Caldari weren't a lot of things. The thing about being dedicated Caldari was/is to stay with what you've got, skill as highly into it as possible and learn to work its advantages and within its limits. I have found for the brief times I've tried FOTM or "what's the best gear" that to skill into it takes ages anyway, and if I'm already fully skilled into one race, then I can derive all the benefits of that race or faction.

I know this didn't fit with a lot of the mentalities in Dust, who would rather always be seeking the best this or the fastest that or the strongest whatever else, but being a fully skilled Caldari means I can be a good all-rounder with emphasis on certain Caldari gear that I know works really well for me. Same for my Gallente merc. Same goes for EvE by the way, where I have a Caldari and a Gallente pilot as my two main characters, both of whom are very highly skilled pilots in their own race and some factions that work well with those races. My Caldari main, Nalianna, for instance, can fly every Caldari ship but the Leviathan, simply because the Titan skill costs 5.5Bill ISK!

I fully intended once I had fully trained my Caldari (and Gallente) mercs in their respective races, to start branching out and training the other races, as well, but sadly I never got to even fully train their own races before the end.... :(

Gallente were the fastest in practice though as they were the only scout you could run 2 kinkats and still get under gal logi scans except for the amarr scout which was slow.
