Hello, all!
I am returning from an absence of about 1.5-2 years (account was only inactive just over a year, but didn't really play the last 6 or so months of it being active). It appears that much has changed... So, not really "new," but definitely need updating.
Anyway, I had mainly focused on missiles. More specifically, heavy missiles. Well, a week after rejoining they nerfed my primary weapon .
Anyway, I am looking for something to replace it. My main ship currently is my Tengu, and have been running some missions in it... Only making about 20m/hour in bounties, mission rewards, and loot/salvage (not counting LP... that could add an extra 10m/hour or so if I can figure out what a good LP to Isk converter would be), and am looking at rejoining my old corp in 0.0. I've been told that it isn't that hard to make 60-100m/hour ratting, so am looking at switching weapons and ships (perhaps even races of ships).
I've been hearing some good things about hybrid weapons lately... Are they really that good?
Anyway, basically the point of this thread: What type of weapon (laser, hybrid, missile, projectile) will let me tear through the NPCs fastest? Not the easiest (like Caldari is, with missiles doing same damage regardless of range) for PvE, but the highest damage.
(Also planning on doing PvP, if that would factor into the choice any).
Thanks! |

Blasters do the maximum damage of all weapons but range is shortest and tracking is ok-ish. Rails are slightly worse than other range weapon. Might wanna tale a look at Vindicator. With stealth boost last expansion, new skill to boost its low Sensor Strength a bit, it has become one of the best ships. FIRE FRIENDSHIP TORPEDOES ! Louis's epic skill guide v1.1 |

Blasters do utterly face-melting DPS, but at quite limited range. It sounds like you're trying to blap NPCs as quickly as you can so, consider swapping the HMLs to HAMs on your Tengu for a change of pace. HAMs benefit from a major improvement with Retribution and so you may want to give them a try.
Otherwise, yeah Vindi, Kronos, Navy Mega all spew hot antimatter death at "up-close and personal range". If you'd prefer to start laying the beats as you close range on those pesky Red Crosses, have a look at AC-fit Macharial or Vargur.

Except for the anemic 30km + range. But the dps makes up for it. |

I haven't got totally maxxed dps skills but I can push out around 450dps at 75km with T1 scourge and around 560dps with Scourge Fury at around 50km now.
Not amazing, but still not bad. Kind of mediocre now, rather than super amazing. This is with 6xHMLIIs and 3 BCS. |
