Hello, I am wanting to build up a Cyclone for combat. I must be doing something very wrong, because I outfitted an autocannon and two rocket launchers and I am out of CPU space. Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks |

Check the size of the mods, sounds like you got a battleship size mod. |

yea! have a couple of ideas!
maybe....... 1 - start from small ships (frigates and destroyers, cheap and very funny to fly around as far as pvp is involved) 2 - join a player corp or chat with people in that NPC corp you are now, let them teach you about fitting etc 3 - we all started as noobs don't worry 4 - start messing around with fits when you have spare time, i suggest you to use pyfa (best tool ever) but even the ingame fitting simulator can be enough at the start
5 - generally don't fly what you can't afford |

Theres a new gadget called a fitting tool in game. Considering what you can pack into a Cyclone most issues are around cpu.
The double large ancillary with 220 auto which has issues with cpu and the easiest way to resolve is to fit a co processor mod on the low slot. Same with X-large ancillary
https://o.smium.org/ has a good selection of cyclones fitted
Also try the ship and fittings thread to see if theres anything on there too
A major factor in all of this is your engineering skills |

You're not supposed to put rockets on a cyclone. You should be filling all the highslots with autocannons. Top troll post btw. |

I like this fit, could also swap the lows to 3 bcus and a co-proc. and then a bunch of small tweaks to change to t2 web/scram or something like that.

One thing I'm really curious about is if you would get better DPS with Warrior II x5 or if you used target painter drones... |

Cyclone is actually a missile boat, it cannot fit more than two projectile turrets, but it can fit 5 missile launchers.
I'm not sure English is Calamity's main language, based on how he phrased things in his post. "rockets" might be a generic term for all types of missiles instead of the specific type of weapon inside the game.
He only mentioned the "rockets" and an autocannon in his post, but no matter what combination of missile launcher and autocannon I sim-fit on a Cyclone, with no other modules fitted the Cyclone has powergrid problems rather than CPU problems, and only if I try any kind of battleship sized turret/launcher.
Something else in his fit is using up a lot of CPU, but since he hasn't mentioned what other modules he's trying to fit, it's hard to pinpoint where the exact problem is. |

When I said you're supposed to fill the highslots with autcoannons... I was trolling. |
