Small modification in this barge.
Now it's something difficult to tank the rats in 0.5 with this ship. This ship cost about 20 m Isk.
One way, It's to had one middle slot and increase a little the cpu and powergrid.

Edited by: Al''kanree on 19/05/2009 16:18:08 Edited by: Al''kanree on 19/05/2009 16:17:14 The difference between the Hulk and covetor it's about 4 days ( skill days).
With a fregate you can tank the rats in 0.5 ( the fregate cost between 50k to 350 k).
Merlin cpu 175 powergrid 35 shield 460 about 350k (skill time 1 day) retriever cpu 125 powergrid 35 shield 391 about 5 m (skill time 3 week) covetor cpu 200 powergrid 35 shield 781 about 20 m (skill time 7 week) hulk cpu 300 powergrid 35 shield 1519 about 80 m (skill time 7 week + 4 days)
You need about 2 month to use the covetor the price is about 20 m and it's difficult to tank some rats.
I don't ask to make the second hulk. I just ask to balance a little the covetor versus Hulk or retriever.

Edited by: Isaac Starstriker on 19/05/2009 16:45:11 Quit soloing? Get better shield skills? (Yes, there are skills that help) Get a hulk? Use combat drones?
No need to change.

Edited by: Grann Thefauto on 19/05/2009 17:25:28 Your refusal to fit for the environment is not a good reason to change a ship. Use combat drones if you really have problems. Here's fit that is cap stable at 49% and will tank as well as any combat frigate and is t1 to boot:
[Covetor, Tank] Mark I Generator Refitting: Capacitor Power Relay Mark I Generator Refitting: Capacitor Power Relay
Small C5-L Emergency Shield Overload I
Ice Harvester I Ice Harvester I Ice Harvester I
[empty rig slot] [empty rig slot] [empty rig slot]
Edit: if you're not going for ice it fits just as well with strip miners.

The difference for me between a Covetor and a Hulk was roughly 23 hours. Where do you get this 4 days crap from?
The difference was so short, I didn't even bother with the covetor at all, and went from a Retreiver directly to a Hulk.
If they want to do anything with the Covetor, they should lower the MB and Astrogeology Skill requirements by one level each.

Tanking the (pie)rats in a covetor is easy..
Lows: 400mm reinforced rolled tungsten Damage Control II
Meds: Warp Disruptor II
Highs: Small Energy Neutralizer II
5xHobgoblin II's 1xOgre II
That frigate that flipped your can will never know what hit it. They are the only rats that you need to worry about really. The Ogre's there for pwning that stupid hauler that comes by. Or, if you are can flipping in a covetor, for pwning that hulk that decided to aggress you :) --

This. No Support. Covetor works as is, although reducing its skill requirements a hair wouldn't be a bad thing. --------------------------------- Thomas Hardy is going to eat your brains. |

the problem is not to have or not the hulk. ( I use the hulk already).
The covetor hasn't a good balance.
Skill time about the same than the hulk. Tanking about the same than the retriever.
For me this ship is completly unbalanced.
Two possibility :
Reduce the skill to use them (ex. Astrogeology IV or Mining barge IV) but not the both a V
Increase a little the tanking.
