If you want to use beams then use a Maller 
Maller gets NO bonus for them ( small lasers ) just like the EVERY other cruiser. Think you guys might need to learn that Medium Lasers ARE small sized guns. Heavy Lasers are Medium sized guns. Megas are Large sized.
The whole point to using lasers vs frigates is high tracking LOW ammo and EM/Thermal Damage which will desemate shields before the frigate can say WTFPWNED. Using Small Hybrids is a waste of a cruiser turret atm because of optimal range vs tracking vs ammo reloading. Do your homework and you will see that with a web + medium named beams, A SMALL ENERGY GUN, you can get better range and tracking over ANY small hybrid and all you have to do is use crystals. You can recoop all damage + some by not having to reload or resupply your ammo. Every reload that small hybrids take is a possible loss of up to 800hp of damage the small energy guns would give by not needing a reload.
Furthermore, all tier 2 cruisers with a similar setup is VERY good. Maller can do it just as good as a rupture. However, the MOA and Thorax are kings of frigate fighting with those 4 mids and drones, respectively. Plz read and think about the posts before you post CRAP like, "amarr = lasers!" and, "Use a maller!"

Having tried 125mm rails with a Rupture setup, I can say they are useless on a cruiser. Their primary effect seemed to be to use ammo. They were very effective at that, however.

/me looks at Kaylona Tso moa setup and think oh no.. You know. 1 webber on a interseptor wont help you much unless you have the speed to keep in range.. becurse a inty whit mwd will still go 5-600m/s even when webbed..
My setup would be 2 heavy launcher, 4x any kinda weapons you want (rails or blasters prefered)
10mn mwd, 100mn ab, webber ad a disrupter.
4x cap relays
its a ***** to turn but its quite good in medium battles just looking for frigs scrambling battleships

high: 4x small neutron blasters (prototype preferably:P) 2x assult w\ defenders
meds: seems fine
low: fine also:)
Id use 125mm rails or medium pulse lasers, seems to take quite a while to get into range with moas bricklike handling, particularly against inties that are gonna be squirming away from you even while webbed.
To the ppl who say use medium guns and a web.... dont asoon as a bs turns up you'll instapop and you'll be useless in medium sized engagements with 2 speed boosts you can go faster then missiles and get out of range fast if a turret ship starts hitting you.
Mostly harmless |
