hello, I am aware that vagabonds was "nerfed" with the rest of eve, but how fast are they supposed to go now?
Last night i saw a vaga go 4,8km/s, atleast that's what my overview read it as, which is about 700m/s more than my Taranis.
Was the guy packing some insane implants? all faction gear? or was it just how it should be?
Thanks for any response.

He was likely overheating he's MWD, around 3.2 km/sec is where I top out in an unrigged T2 fit, with gang bonus's. Try overheating your Taranis and you should catch him.

NERF NANOS (again)
and then put missiles into their place (again) - so you need 4 webs and 6 TPs to kill same sized ship.

it can hit 1.5 k with an afterburner overloaded, which is actually enough to get through camps.

I had 5.8k m/s in my Vagabond some few days ago, it was with my MWD overloaded though. But that was in a gang with speed bonuses.
And ofc, this is without any speed implants at all.

If you compare it to other hacs vaga speed is more than enough. Only ceptors are able to outrun it.

Alliance bud in a vaga killed a 3x OD2 crusader last night. Actually, he killed the same guy in a 1x OD2 crusader an hour earlier, too.
So yeah, vaga is still good. =) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Brought to you by the letter ARRR!" |

2x OD 2x nano and a polycarb rig does 3.3k, 4.8k overheated, but his mwd will be burnt out in 90 seconds.
My stiletto does 6.2k on overheat easily with only 1x OD 1x nano and no rigs, easy to catch it.
Without overheating any ships mwd, the stiletto does 4.3k (1k more) and will catch it, same fittings.
To be honest, I dont think it is (or was anyway) really worth it trying to get the most possible speed out of it, as you can easily get very decent speed for the ship size and pack 3 damage mods.

sweet nano tears.
But seriously, its still fast, and since everyhing else is slower it should still be viable.

It was actually enough for me to take down a Wolf, an Arazu, and half of another Arazu in a full on web-range dogfight. I got jumped by a gang of 2 Arazus, Wolf, Rapier, and Hound. It was by far the most exciting fight I've ever been in. Yeah - they got me in the end, but if this fight took place before this so called nerf, I would gave gone down without even scratching the enemy. The way it was now, i took down two of the enemy's ships while the most damage that was done to me was actually inflicted by a rat Angel battleship. They got a rat BS on top of their killmail :) --------

There is no reason to fit more than 3 speed mods now and the new standard version only fits 2.
Rigs: 2x Ambit Extension Lows: 3x gyro 2x nano Mids: MWD/Point/2x LSE Highs: Personal preference - 180's or 220's depending on what your skills and what you want in your utility high - med neut, cloak, missle launcher are all viable options
A vaga like this will go close to 2.9km/s. A vaga with more speed mods and polys and what not will only go a couple of hundred m/s faster and do significantly less dps. Fit for dps and range, its the way to go now. You can still outrun anything not frigate sized and anything frigate sized can easily be shot to pieces in seconds as it chases you.

i have a very similar setup. i guess i got the mass sig radius phobia, so i went with an invuln shield instead and upgraded to 425mm. swap out a gyro for a tracking enhancer and its not bad at all. 2x overdrive and polycarb is the extent of my nano now. i'm thinking of dumping those for ambit, but dammit i spent good money on them

Seems like an idea, but heavy neuts would end the fun pretty quick sadly, besides the nice base speed somewhat makes up for the impact of dual-LSEs on signature.
