I probably look like a noob posting my killmail here but I figured this might be a unique story and it could offer inspiration to new players like me.
Anyway, yesterday had been a slow day for me pvp vice, hadn't had any action during the whole day. I decided to go out ratting in Amamake before going to bed. So there I was with my rifter just finishing of a rat when suddenly Arazu popped to my overview 40km away(not sure if it jumped in or uncloaked). Being a 30 day old noob I had no idea what Arazu was and decided to escape. To my great surprise my warp core was disrupted(from over 40km away!) and I was sure I was going to die. I hitted afterburner and tried to get off his insane range. I managed to get like 55km away but then the Arazu just hit his mwd and catched me up again. During this whole time he was shooting me with railguns.
I decided I had no other chance than to fight, so I turned around and manual flight towards it trying to avoid railgun fire. I got right next to it and started to orbit at 500m. I saw it launching it T2 hammerhead drones and figured that this was the end. Usually when I get a droneship on me I die in seconds. However these drones didn't seem to hit me very well and I could tank their damage with SAR1 as I had basically unlimited cap because I was draining it from the Arazu with NOS. I picked off the drones one by one and then turned my guns on the Arazu. When he was half armor punisher jumped to the belt 100km away and offered his help. I joined in a fleet with him and he jumped out of the belt(to warp to member). By the time he got to the action the Arazu was already in structure and the Punisher helped me to finish the Arazu off. Damn him from getting the last hit. :) I did over 5000 damage compared to his 134. But he was a fair guy and let me keep the loot(which was worth nearly 100 million!).
I have no idea if the Arazu pilot was drunk or just underestimated my Rifter, but for some reason he decided to engage me. When I got close I pointed him with a scram and webbed him so there was no escaping. This was definitely the most memorable fights I have had during my one month in EVE. And my first solo kill also(I count it as solo kill as I did 97% of the damage and could have killed it alone).
Here is the killmail:

What happened is the following: You were to close for his railguns (espescially cruiser railguns) to track. Hammerheads (medium drones) don't track frigs very well so you were able to kill em before they got you. Then it was just a matter of finishing off his tank, which he couldn't sustain for ever, especially with your Nos. However, why he didn't MWD away from you when you were approaching is beyond me. He should have had full range control. Possibly he capped out, but that seems pretty unlikely. He's from the united, a well known pirate corp, so I have no idea how that happened.

Sadly, for them, the locals in Amamake are a tad different to the week old players they are used to bombing in Rancer. Its cute when pirates have to bring a capfleet to compete.
But hell, eggs and omelettes as they say. The industrial alts are happy to take up the slack in the local market.

Not really true. Read what Roland wrote. Once the drones are gone there is nothing the Arazu can do. Of course, he's probably a clueless fool who didn't keep range in the first place, but still. ___________________

Searching for a pilot and checking most recent loss isn't that hard. ;)
Anyway, didn't mean to take away from the kill, well done. Just that this pilot is obviously clueless. ___________________

Looks like they were too embarrassed to post a Reaper kill and only posted the pod..Maybe if I give it time they will make my kill something big and important.. Who knows maybe my Reaper will morph into a Typhoon or a Maelstom soon..

Nice job taking it on solo.
Just goes to show what a piece of crap the Arazu is. Falcon would jam it's way out. Rapier would web, get distance, and kill the Rifter. Pilgrim would just laugh and omgwtfbbq the Rifter. Arazu however? Arazu just dies.

I think the Arazu losing to the Rifter has more to do with the Arazu pilot being a complete failure at EVE rather than the ship being horribly imbalanced (It is a weak recon, but not that weak)

The OP already said that the Arazu was catching up to him with his MWD. For some reason the arazu didn't turn tail and keep his distance. Piloting error was the cause of this death, not the ship.

Edited by: jlangerud on 10/04/2009 22:35:49 OP said something about a scrambler. If it was a scram, he had no mwd to burn away from said Domi (Rifter). That might explain him not burning out of range. Good job Op on the kill.

Read more carefully - the OP had a 60 km point and a MWD. The Arazu easily had the capability to control range. He should have launched drones, held the Rifter out at range to minimise angular velocity and sniped him. If it went wrong, he should have just warped out.
tl;dr: Arazu pilot fails hard. Send me your ISK and quit.

Well I certainly wouldn't disagree that it was crappy piloting on the part of the Arazu.
However, you are missing the point of my comment. Once the Arazu gets into that situation (frig at close range) it's dead. The other 3 recons have methods of extricating themselves, whereas the Arazu does not. So the fact that it is a crap ship has plenty to do with the idiot getting killed.

This, Arazu was set up to work in a gang or to kill solo ratters in cruisers or BC's. He was not properly fit to fight a frig, even a T1 frig.
He let a small ship get in close assuming that his Hammers would take the frig down and they did not. Some Warrior II's would have saved him but he carried 4 Hammer II's and that took all his drone bay leaving him open for just this situation.
Arazu pilot made a stupid move and he did it in front of a pilot who was in a ship that filled the defensive hole the Arazu had.
Stupidity kills.

"I decided I had no other chance than to fight, so I turned around and manual flight towards it trying to avoid railgun fire. I got right next to it and started to orbit at 500m"
So, the MWD fit Arazu failed to keep range from the AB fit Rifter. Additionally, he failed to just align and warp out when he had the Rifter pointed from 55 km out.
Point is, the Arazu pilot failed.

Much to my surprise, it's there, unedited and for all to see. Though there isn't much to see. When you need a Heavy Interdictor to scram a Reaper and another HIC+BS to kill it, you're hunting flies with cannons.

WRONG, my arazu would NEVER lose to a single frigate. The trick is to use light drones rather than medium. The error was entirely with the pilot, both in fitting and in piloting. He could have probably disengaged at almost any time with the MWD.

You never should've won against an Arazu. With that said: congratulations on a damned good job!
Warrior II drones would've ripped you in seconds. Good thing you had that scram equipped. That's what kept him from running. With a disruptor he would've escaped as his MWD would work.
He also underestimated you. An Arazu should keep range, but he didn't see you as a threat at all. If he'd moved the opposite direction when you closed range on him he would even hit you with his 200mm rails because transversal would've been low enough. It's also epic fail not to bring some faction AM ammo. Spike M has 0.75% tracking if I recall correct, whereas faction AM retains dps while still tracking at 100%. The Arazu is not a good solo ship against fast crafts. The Arazu's strenght is to dampen it's enemys sensors, thus preventing a lock. You got within his damping range.
Good job on killing him. A kill is a kill. The next time you'll loose if you meet someone sensible :)

Oh? Did you come to that conclusion before or after having your ass handed to you by a Taranis?... Sorry, but having to gimp your already sh!tty dps for the sole purpose of being able to survive a frigate is exactly what makes the Arazu a piece of crap. There's no job the Arazu does that can't be done better, cheaper, and more survivably (made that word up) by another ship. Lose a few more, you'll figure it out.

Originally by: Vladimir Norkoff There's no job the Arazu does that can't be done better, cheaper, and more survivably (made that word up) by another ship. Lose a few more, you'll figure it out.
The Blarazu disagrees. ---

Originally by: Vladimir Norkoff Nice job taking it on solo.
Just goes to show what a piece of crap the Arazu is. Falcon would jam it's way out. Rapier would web, get distance, and kill the Rifter. Pilgrim would just laugh and omgwtfbbq the Rifter. Arazu however? Arazu just dies.

Its hard to say which is more win, the Rifter curb-stomping the Arazu or the Arazu pilot's sorry attempt to save face.

Curious, why did he only take 7,000 damage? Even with his fit, against your rails, he should've taken 10,000-11,000 to kill...

huh? hp is not ehp, it doesn't take into account resists. according to EFT, a max-skilled rapier with a single LSE will have 7300 hp total. it's ehp, however, will be 12.4k due to resists.

Impressive kill!
Reminds me of when I tackled a Harpy in 0.0 space thinking 'easy kill' with my Arazu and talking my smack on alliance vent.
He started to run to the gate so I ran after him thinking he would jump on contact. He MWD'd to the gate, bounced off, and to my surprise, turned and tackled me instead of jumping. My Arazu didn't last very long with his blasters all over me. Alliance had a good laugh.

The arazu didn't MWD away because the rifter had him scrambled. The arazu's scrambler made it so the rifter couldn't warp but he could still use his AB so he had speed tank on the arazu as well. Add in the nuet and fact that medium rails had no chance of hitting the rifter at that range he was screwed as soon as he closed range on him.
Might have survived had it been scout drones instead of mediums, also if he had a missle/rocket launcher for close range but really the arazu pilot I think was hoping for the rifter to pop from the first hit at 55km.

Half the people in this thread are incredibly dense.
A rifter can scram from the 40km distance the fight started out at ofc. And a MWD arazu is not faster than a plated, ab rifter either. --------

Apparently you belong to the dense 50% mate. An Arazu with recon 5 has a 48km warp disrupt range. With faction mods it stretches to 56km. The Arazu also flies at over 1500m/s with mwd, whereas the Rifter goes at just over a 1000m/s with an AB. A named AB gives you around 150% increase on base speed. The Rifter speed will of course vary depending on skills, but as I understood it the Rifter pilot is relatively new.

He's still wrong and you guys need to l2r. Jodie Amille mocks Mistress Jeanette for pointing out that the rifter were scrambling the Arazu, but they were 40km apart. The problem is that the rifter didn't attack the Arazu. It was the other way around. The Arazu decloaked at disrupting range at +40km. The Rifter tried to gtfo but couldn't, THEN turned around to fight as it were it's only option left. The Arazu pilot was expecting an easy kill and didn't bother keeping his range.
The hunter became the hunted after a while, but then it were too late for the Arazu to escape as the Rifter had an AB+scram. Nothing wrong with that assessment. Disputing this by trying to call it sarcasm only proves you don't have sufficient grasp of EVE mechanics.

I don't agree with that. I would much rather face an Arazu/Lach than say a Curse, Vaga or a Rapier. Both the Curse and the Rapier will slow you down and kill you, while the Vaga will just shred you in seconds. The Arazu should nevertheless be able to easily win over a Rifter.

dont u love these dum pilots that dont know how too fly a ship and fit it propery... T2 ammo shame on u, only long range ammo, shame on u. No scram, shame on u. not well fitted low slots, shame on u. No faction webber shame on u.
Damn this is a crappy fit, 4/10
to the arazu pilot, think what your target group is before messing around in eft. Example dampers too kill small ships? better fit a scram + faction (ts 15km ) web (or 2 even better) and did u ever heard of t2 ammo's tracking penalty? |
