Update (for Inferno)

With the changes in Inferno, the Merlin is now one of the better, if not the best, T1 frigate in the game. It now ~~have~~ 3 high ~~slot~~ with 3 damage-bonused turret hardpoint, allowing for exceptional damage at close range; while maintaining 4 mid slots which not only giving it great flexibility as a tackler but also the ability to fit a robust shield tank, complimented by a resistance bonus. Its speed is also decent; while not as fast as other ~~minmatar~~ frigates, most commonly the Rifter, fitting an MWD/AB combined with a Nanofiber Internal Structure is enough for the Merlin to match any other ship in speed.
