I was just wondering what ppl think of the tier 1 BS (Armageddon, Typhoon, Dominix, Scorpion)
Which is best for PvP? Which is best for hunting NPCs? Which is best for tanking, mining etc?
I would really like to see what others think as i use a Geddon myself, and have heard some really bad things about the typhoon.

no. the 'phoon is a very "all-round" BS. good for NPC. Good for PvP. just not that good for mining.

There is no such thing as the best battleship, it all depends on your fitting, skills and the circumstances.

scorp is bet for pvp - thts for sure. when it comes to NPCs... well.. scorp is good if ur corp offers unlimited amount of torps & CMs for free... cuz it eats torps like ****... about 150 each big NPC fight... but at least the shieldtank is damn good. typhoon is pretty ****** up. it was a really nice ship but now its totally ****** up. domi is good for mining in empire. domi and arma are both good against NPCs just if u armor tank em proper u dont ahve enough power grid to equip what u want in highs. they suck even more in dmg than scorps. I guess thts all...

The firepower on a scorp totaly sucks so killing tanked ship could be a problem if you dont have any cap draining mods fitted, if you dont he will most likely be able to tank your dmg untill backup arrives.

If this is going to be your first battleship, get the Armaghedon.
It is a strong tanker, with solid, consistent damage dealing capabilities, and high mining ability.
For Empire mining, or group mining in 0.0, it packs seven mining lasers, and as many mining drones and combat drones as you can wield.
For NPC hunting, it's lasers provide unlimited amunition, with high damage and hit rates, and it's substantial drone bay gives solid stoping power against NPC frigates and cruisers, even without having missile bays. Just be sure to train Heavy drones before you hunt in 0.0 space, as without them, NPC jammers will be your doom.
For PvP is can be fitted into either an impressive tank, or an equally impressive damage dealer, as the situation, or fleet, requires.
The only fields where it begins to lag behind other Teir 1 Battleships is in electronic warfare, and solo mining in 0.0. It simply lacks the medium slots needed to compete with the Scorpion in EW, and its CPU is not quite enough to fit the equipement needed to both tank and mine at the same time in 0.0 space.
Even so, the Armagheddon is, by far the most versitile Teir 1 Battleship. A true jack-of-all-trades, and master of most.
I know, since I traded my Tempest in for one, I have never looked back. Never.

Try using 3-4 shield extenders on scorp and you can create a vg tanking ship which can take lots of dmg. This can be useful in fleets alongside a jamming scorp.
If you want the best all round pvp ship go for the armageddon.

And what about your cap?
and like I was saying, Shield Hardeners > Shield Extenders, why?
They raise your effective shield to a certain damage type by 50% and they raise the effective shield to boost per cycle by 50% also.
