I've got a brand new Cyclone, it looks cool. However, due to my corp, I have to rat around Sansha's, and I want to be able to take down BS spawns. What should my loadout be?

Hunting sansha with a cyclone is very hard. (the whole shield with weak resist deal...)
A hurricane will do the job much more effectivly. You will have a better tank (6 slots and natrually resistant vs the damage sansha do) and you'll do a good deal more dps.
Oh, and it looks secksah

Don't know anything about Sansha, but the Cyclone can hang with anything. The Hurricane is not a better ship, just different. The Hurricane is an armor tanker, the Cyclone is a shield tanker, pick your style. The Hurricane has an extra turret mount but a smaller drone bay, pick your style. They both have the same base speed, but the Hurricane has more low slots, so could go faster, pick your style. The Cyclone has a bonus to its tank, while the Hurricane has a bonus to its weapons, which is nice with the extra turret, this plays to asking to speed tank the Hurricane. Not necessary, but pick your style.
I don't have anything against the Hurricane, but I've not felt the need to leave my Cyclone. Besides which, I have some Crystal implants and much better shield and drone skills.

Yes,both can handle them BUT,i'd go with the hurricane..
Highs:6 arties 2 missiles. Mids:ab lots of cap rechargers. Lows:1 armor rep em/therm passive hardeners and gyros.
Note before you call me a fool for these setups ive never flown either so...
If you want a cyclone its also pretty straight forward.
Highs:5 arts 3 missiles Mids 1 medium-large shield booster(if large shield booster go for a shield boost amp if not go for a recharger)lets of em/therm hardeners. Lows:gyros/pdus.
The difference is the hurricane can tank them better because it starts with 70% em resistance to its armor and can do more damage,but you need to be skilled in armor tanking and guns in order to use this. __________________________________________ Yes it is great being amarr. |

The whole problem being the sucky em/thermal resists on the cyclone which is a shield tanker vs. the medium resists on the armor of the the hurricane which is an armor tanker. Hurricane hands down, however, you could sacrifice and armor tank in the cyclone. This is one of those rare situation where it makes sense. ______________________________________________________ I forget which station container has my memory implants. |
