Imo, drop the deadspace micro. It's not going to improve your speed enough to be cost-effective, so, unless you've got it on there for another reason, give it up. I don't think it'd be worth spending as much as (almost) another fitted ship on just the micro.

No, I live to provide useful advice. I posted a setup that out-performs his in every relevant way, and for less ISK.

It doesn't even fit without the NOS.
And yes, I know the Wolf only has two mid slots. This is one of the many reasons my setup is better than yours.

Which is completely meaningless. Almost ANY ship can kill a battleship if you bring enough of them, and a small pack of ships that don't completely suck would do the job much better.

drop the enam faction mwd and nos, put on t2 mwd 2 more gryos (or cpu mod as needed) and t2 rocket launcher but other than that it is awesome
also this is jsut my personal preference so if you prefer a bit more survivability over HEY LOOK A SHIP LETS BLOW IT THE **** UP then go for it
I have the gisti mwd on there cause it doesn't use up as much cap and the nos drop sounds good but maybe lows have 2gyro2's and 2 nano2's

Hi. I'm back. Assault frigates still suck, and are out-performed in every way by destroyers or T1 cruisers (not that either of those are really that awesome, but they're better than assault frigates). But since it should be easy for you, being such an expert pirate, name even one scenario where assault frigates are better than an equal number of destroyers and T1 cruisers.

your going to be within web range to fight in this thing anyways to the armor plates ar ea better choice, the nanos will just get you killed sooner, but again all personal preferance try it out and see what you like best

Wow, nice DPS. Too bad a Thrasher is doing 290 DPS at the same distance, and doing it with much better tracking so you don't lose half of it to the short range. Oh yeah, and also doing it with more tank.
BTW, I'm still waiting for you to post even a single scenario where assault frigates are better than an equal number of destroyers and T1 cruisers.

The obvious rule in there is "assuming equal skills". Ganking a newbie in a Caracal doesn't count. The correct question to ask in that scenario is which ship would be better for you at ganking that newbie in a Caracal, the Wolf or a Thrasher/Stabber/Rupture? And just guess what the answer might be...

The wolf is a very fun ship, even though it is outperformed by many others. honestly, the ruppie woudl do the best, but the trasher and wolf would b the most fun, and fun is what the game is about.

Let me put it this way. Even if you fit/fly a wolf right then the correctly fit/flown ceptor/hurricane/stabber will give superior overall performance in just about any PVP situation you plan on fitting it for and using it in at equal or less cost.
Look I know you want to fly a wolf but there simply is no right way to fly one without having a superior alternative. _______________

Err, can I have some of what you're smoking? Medium guns very definitely CAN track you once you get into web range (as you have to do with a 7.5km scram). Just run the numbers on it, using an AB interceptor as the test target, a comparison that favors your case, since there's no way an AB assault frigate will be faster than an AB inty or have a lower sig radius.
Originally by: Arvald this is also a good setup for if you like tank
If you like dying, you mean. You tank a staggering 55 dps against thermal, with a little over 7k EHP. Hammerhead IIs do 155 dps. You have approximately 70 seconds to live, which doesn't really matter, since you can only run your AB/scram/SAR for 59 seconds, and your amazing 170 dps will take quite a bit longer to kill anything.
Oh, wait, you're in web range if you want to do non-zero dps. I hope you don't mind replacing your ships too often... against a Thorax you have less than 30 seconds to live.
But please, take your AF up against medium guns. The last AF that tried your no-MWD strategy died to my Vigilant in less than 15 seconds.

Are you using the new numbers? AB Wolf after speed nerf goes 928m/s. Web only does 60%. The wolf is therefore orbiting at 700ishm at 371m/s. Whatever I got hit w/ my SARII had no problem keeping up with.
