before you start flameing me i know that the pilgrim is not a mission running ship. its just that i love the arbitrator and dont want to change ship line(i do got a zealot on the side) and i dont want to train missiles so the curse is out.
so...is there anyone else that use the pilgrim in missions? and fitting advice?

Edited by: Feng Schui on 31/12/2007 15:11:30 just use the arbitrator, or use a curse. and be damned sure that your drone skills are very, very good.
as for setups, go with 3 NOS, rest heavy launchers, target painter, afterburner, cap stuff, 2 hardeners (rat specific), and at least 1 medium armor rep.
edit:
or you can go with a full rack of drone augmenters, mid slots with drone upgrades + target painter + afterburner, and the lows with nanos and overdrives. Thing here would be to get aggro, orbit something at 150km, and use your drones to kill stuff. this also works with the arbitrator.
i've done both of these setups in L3's, and they do work.

well i guess i 'could' use a curse but if i train missiles i might as well use the sac...the thing is that i dont want missiles and i like drones.
i cant get in game right now so this might not fit but i was thinking something like this:
High 3 HP T2 1 covops cloak(just because i can^^) Med 1 AB T2 3 CR T2 1 web 1 painter? cap recharger? drone mod? Low 2 med reps 2 resists(active) 1 best named CPR
will this work? cap stabile?

I've used a pilgrim to malke lvl3's very successfully. The tank was 2 repper (I think I never onlined both and 2 racial hardeners+DC).
Semi afk mission running... ________________________________________

coolness. did you do the harder missions(blockade,recon)?
i am doing lvl 4s with a raven on my main(reason to why i dont want to train missiles. i want zak to be pure amarr) and i'm planing to do missions with zak to get my standings up for a clone. hmmm i wonder if its possible to run lvl 4s to...

Yes I did the harder ones, only be sure you recall drones before each wave of rats and you fly fast to not get blobbed.
For lvl4's I use an Abaddon with 8 Mega Pulses II and perma dual/repper tank. All tech 2 nothing faction of expensive mods... ________________________________________

coolness. my end goal for zak is a T2 amarr BS^^. the pilgrim is mostly because i like it and find it fun to fly(well i find the arbitrator fun to fly, i got a few weeks left for the pilgrim). so i will most likely use the abbadon or geddon for lvl 4s later...i was just wondering if the pilgrim could handle them...it looks like it could be fun. not fast....but fun

I find that the Pilgrim has a surprisingly good tank, mostly because you stay away from resource-hungry weapons. Here's my 'all-purpose' set-up for ratting in 0.0 space. This setup also was able to take out a level 3 ARCSAL site with 3 cruisers and 6 battleships (Sanshas) and some level 3 Amarr COSMOS missions with little difficulty:
Highs: 1 Covert Ops cloak, 1 Salvager, 1 Medium Nos, Your choice/empty Mids: 1 AB II, 2 TD II's, 2 Cap Charger II's Lows: 1 MAR II, 1 1600mm Plate II, 1 Energized Thermal Plate II, 1 EANM II, 1 Co-Processor.
Keep the AB on and circle a large target at 7,500 meters turning on & off the Nos when you need some cap. You can ditch the Co-Processor on the bottom if you don't fill the Highs or have Recon trained to 5. That would make the tank better, where you can put on a 2nd EANM II.
Drones are your only weapons. 5 should be explosive/kinetic, 5 should be EM/thermal, and the rest are your choice (repair drones can be a good idea if you don't have access to repair in station). Your drones (hopefully T2 drones, otherwise use a HAC) should rip through frigates, cruisers & battlecruisers with ease. Battelships will fall too, it will just take a bit of time.
If you end up fighting missle spammers, like the dreaded Gursitas, ditch the TD's and fit some other form of ECM, maybe Damps. Guristas will be your toughest opponents, with Sanshas / Blood Raiders being the easiest. |

sounds like a good fit to me. i 'have' been planing of going into encounters and archeology when i get back...i am only missing a skill or two so it might be a good idea....not to mention that with the cloak i can do it without to much risk in low and no sec systems. its just to bad that the pilgrim dont got a launcher slot so i will need to have my main in a covops with him to scan the sites down...
