(EDIT: i meant projectile collision accelerators, not missile cale's. my bad) otherwise, you might want to take a deeper look at your configuration and see what else you can manage.

Lego Maniac Sebiestor tribe	Posted - 2008.03.29 19:22:00 - [5] Originally by: Kerdrak 3xCCC no I know 3xCCC is the solution to everyone's cap problems, but for the life of me I can't figure out WHY here's the scoop with everything running, my cap lasts... w/o rigs: 2m 53s 3xCCC Is: 3m 57s 2xCCC Is and 1xSMC I: 4m 26s 1xCCC I and 2x SMC Is: 4m 59s 3xSMC Is: 5m 37s yes, SMCs are about twice as expensive, but that's not the issue anyhow, I wasn't really looking at beefing up my cap, since sniping means I won't be taking a whole lot of damage so I won't need to run my tank as long any others?
Lego Maniac Sebiestor tribe	Posted - 2008.03.29 19:23:00 - [6] Originally by: Annowyn Don't. Your insurance will not cover it in ~2 hrs. care to clarify?

I want this ship to be a nice lil' mission w***e

OOPS: in my previous post, i got it wrong. don't add the warhead calefaction rigs, add projectile collision aerator. having the 3 launcher rigs on top of the 3 bcu's is about the dumbest thing ever to do.

I did read you original post, and it fails epically. I am not sure if you ever done many L4 missions, but I would love to see you tank them with that low slot set up. Some of them I can barely keep up with the tank I posted. And if you don't understand why people do it that way, then I guess let me explain something to you. I am lazy. I like going into a L4, target the npcs then surf the web and come back to see them dead. And 5 minutes isn't much of a tank, especially the tank you have in your set up. See you in your pod.

You have proven two things. You are bad in Mathematics. You don't know what you are talking about. No matter what combinations of rechargers and rigs you choose, SMCs are better than CCCs only in situations where your cap can be drained and/or is not sustainable, like pvp. They are twice the price of CCCs, though... SMCs are slightly worse than CCCs (meaning you need less recharging modules) in situations where your cap is sustainable perma-running modules. Which is exactly what you should try to achieve for efficient missioning. ===== "If a member of the EVE community finds he or she cannot accept our current level of transparency, we bid you good luck in finding a company that meets your needs." - CCP kieron...

Which is exactly what you should try to achieve for efficient missioning. I didn't do the math, EFT did - and EFT's math is far superior to yours, as you have proven in your post the way cap recharging works now is very similar to shield recharging, so think of a passive drake tank - shield extenders (which are parallel to SMCs) will up your recharge rate, not just the pool that you are drawing from, since the time it takes to fully recharge that pool stays the same therefore, a combination of recharge mods and max capacity mods is the most efficient in getting the most out of sustainability

I do missions actively, which means I don't go afk - the whole point of playing this game is to enjoy what you're doing, right? and yes, I've done L4s before - in a cyclone, no less (with a lot shi*ttier tank, by kite-sniping) I've not been killed by NPCs yet, and I don't see myself getting killed by NPCs anytime soon tell you what, if I end up in a pod... you get a cookie
Markit Broker Hedion University	Posted - 2008.03.29 20:42:00 - [17] CCC gives you a much better recharge rate than the cell rigs, and your tank is not enough for some lv4s unless you have other helping you. but it's perfectly fine for lv3s, incase of lv3s, slap in a target painter.
Twin blade	Posted - 2008.03.29 20:50:00 - [18] Edited by: Twin blade on 29/03/2008 20:52:33 Lego Maniac a cyclone has a better than that your typhoon so it will tank some lvl 4 missions. That typhoon set up WILL blow up if you do any thing but the easy missions if you must use a typhoon DO it right or not at all. Hell i think your drone's will end up been over 50% of your dps lose them that set up is just an epic fail. CCC rigs work best since i am sure you know missions do last more than 5 mins so been cap stable or a high recharge is best. Hell my maelstorm with CCC can run for a tiny 3 mins at most but tanks all lvl 4's but if i was to try with SMC i would cap out die and need to rebuy it all. Death is great rember where all dying to get there.
Ben Booley Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2008.03.29 22:16:00 - [19] Phoon w/3 SMCs and no cap mods = +29.1 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 2 minutes 49 seconds) Phoon w/3 CCCs and no cap mods = +31.2 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 1 minutes 54 seconds) Phoon w/3 SMCs and 4 cap rech = +71.1 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 9 minutes 54 seconds) Phoon w/3 CCCs and 4 cap rech = +76.2 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners sustains) EFT math. The only time when SMCs are better is when you don't have enough cap to run it by a large margin, CCCs give more cap/s.
Velox Idolon State War Academy	Posted - 2008.03.29 22:26:00 - [20] if you want to mission snipe, get a tempest, put lots of 1400mm artilleries on it (or a maelstrom but tempest is more agile with more lows) put 2 OD 2 nano 2 gyro in lows, AB and shield tank with a few invul and an LSE or 2 in mids (and/or sensor booster) 3 sentry drones tactic, arrive, burn out to optimum range (ideally over 60km), use superior speed to keep sufficient distance to kill small ships, then sit at range and kill big ships. if you wanted to rig this fit, try aux thrusters for increased speed, or possibly projectile damage rigs because you should have lots of spare grid.

Admiral Pelleon White Shadow Imperium	Posted - 2008.03.30 00:04:00 - [21] Originally by: Ben Booley Phoon w/3 SMCs and no cap mods = +29.1 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 2 minutes 49 seconds) Phoon w/3 CCCs and no cap mods = +31.2 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 1 minutes 54 seconds) Phoon w/3 SMCs and 4 cap rech = +71.1 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners runs for 9 minutes 54 seconds) Phoon w/3 CCCs and 4 cap rech = +76.2 cap/s (Dual LAR II and 4 active hardeners sustains) EFT math. The only time when SMCs are better is when you don't have enough cap to run it by a large margin, CCCs give more cap/s. This. OP is incorrect, CCC's are better for sustained tanking, which is extremely useful in missions. ________ Originally by: Tarminic I believe your mother should have re-rolled her birth control.
