With autocannons it would use less ammo and has a tracking boost, with an afterburner the falloff lost isn't too hurtfull.<br />@Xalorous: If your only goal for mission running is getting money, yeah pretty much. I've used several ships in LVL4's that wouldn't be considered optimal by your criteria, like a Cerberus. It worked very well and gave me an idea of the capabilities of the ship. Besides sometimes it's fun to go off the beaten path and not fit a cookiecutter.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294471384182595501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072295959847306495.post-6783557662431796232010-03-11T23:16:48.957-08:002010-03-11T23:16:48.957-08:00btw, Letrange, when and why do you leave w-space, ...btw, Letrange, when and why do you leave w-space, why are you sitting in Empire or wherever you are and running missions?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04950693747136551945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072295959847306495.post-35416738456775203232010-03-11T13:05:26.375-08:002010-03-11T13:05:26.375-08:00Ok, seems to me the goal for building a mission ru...Ok, seems to me the goal for building a mission runner ship is having enough tank without having too much extra. Then cramming in as much Gank as you can.<br /><br />It has to fit within your skills. And your wallet. And you have to be able to risk it.<br /><br />If we agree to all these criteria, then the Maelstrom Marschant posted seems like a far superior choice, since it's only going to run you 200 mil or so, versus whatever T3 cruisers, fitted and rigged, are going for now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711664798500208761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072295959847306495.post-74101178409177173432010-03-09T22:40:33.526-08:002010-03-09T22:40:33.526-08:00@Letrange: Gotta love the build time on damn T2 Am...@Letrange: Gotta love the build time on damn T2 Ammo! Got a few batches of Barrage L on the assembly array now, with some small and medium waiting to go.<br /><br />@ReatuKrentor: 1400mm's are fantastic for low ammo consumption but the loss of tracking annoys me, I hate managing drones for smaller ships. True about the Ambit rig it does help though in the instances where you need to run 4 hardners.<br /><br />Guess it's all down to personal playstyle.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11602968658637448221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072295959847306495.post-44504999353398035072010-03-09T15:51:03.561-08:002010-03-09T15:51:03.561-08:00yes, lvl 4's are disguntingly easy.
I wish th...yes, lvl 4's are disguntingly easy. <br />I wish they were more challenging. I don't have any clue how it can be done though, without becoming easy once the missions/NPC's are known. <br /><br /><br />@Marschant: "..., you can swap out one of the cap rigs for an extra ambit, ..." You're already using 4 modules that modify tracking, an ambit rig would only add about 1.5% more falloff due to stacking.<br />1400's are nice for being cost-effective with faction ammo, the long wait between shots makes that possible, I've used it with a tempest, 10k volley.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294471384182595501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072295959847306495.post-1690562649708453322010-03-09T14:25:11.047-08:002010-03-09T14:25:11.047-08:00oh and have you seen the subsystem with the ROF bo...oh and have you seen the subsystem with the ROF bonus?
