The new Bozeman Frigate has tons of potential and bang for the buck. The untargetable trait, console that disables enemy's intel teams, and a full intel spec with lots of universal seating makes it very adaptable for pvp building.

In this video, I go over the build - two variants, a Surgical Strikes configuration as well as a Beam Overload version with the same equipment. Each has its own pros and cons, and what works best will depend on what other gear/traits are available.

Here is the build in pvp combat: youtu.be/KQCcPAS3hfk
I also ran an ISA and it parses between 70-80k dps in pug groups, plenty enough damage for advanced TFO content.
