Siddy	Posted - 2004.09.13 17:27:00 - [33] Edited by: Siddy on 13/09/2004 17:30:27 im using my tempest for PVP but i can give my Typhoon laser setup if you incist Hig - 4 Dual pulses 4 Sieges (ya i know its expensive but so what) med - 4 tech 2 cap rechages low - 4 hards to countter NPC types, 1 Accomodation L rep and 1 Tech 2 M rep + cap relay /edit - i culd imagine that Tempest culd fit 6 duals with decent armor tank and enuff juice to runn it and some nosferatus or sieges -------------------------------------------

Travling	Posted - 2004.09.14 02:57:00 - [37] its messed up that ppl say the 1400mm on a tempest cant hit anymore. I use 6 1400mm 2 seige launchers. And in mids 2 sheild hardners 1 sheild booster 1 sig booster 1 named tracking mod. Low slots are 2 tech 2 gyro's 1 tech 2 tracking comp and 1 named med armour repair and 2 rcu's. Now whit this setup i can hit from 50-110k frigs and can hit bs through all ranges. So 1400mm aint all that bad. and i use the seige launchers cause they fire faster can shoot torps also and carry more cruise

Meatead	Posted - 2004.09.14 11:30:00 - [41] you can fit 6x1400 and 2xsiege with 2rcu or 1rcu2 I think. setups arent all that difficult as long as you know what you want to do/what range you fight at/what you are fighting. I used to use 6x1400 2xsiege and a shield tank setup (1large t2 sb,shield amp 2hards) but found that for npc hunting it was relying on the torps to kill the frigs/cruisers...did manage to take a 2x1mil bs and 1x1.5mil bs spawn tho with it - so it works. Also tried 4x1200/1400 and siege launchers and found it quite good - just hate to use missiles on npc really as the price is an issue - and would really rather use a phoon for this setup tbh. Atm I use 6x800 2xsiege web cap chargers and 1accom 4hards (2of each depending on the rat type) and a cap relay...can sustain it all indefinitely and tank up to 2bs quite easy - 3is a bit tougher with only 1rep but its still doable :) the 800s do chew a LOT of ammo - but the dot is fairly impressive (can take down a 1.5mil bs without reloading) and being able to run the 4hards/1large rep all the time means tankage is pretty solid. expect to go through a LOT of ammo tho...I can chew through 10k so fast but if you only fly minmater and only use projectile like me this is an excellent npc ratting solution.

Stevie Wonder	Posted - 2004.09.14 14:58:00 - [43] Originally by: jukriamrr Also if you like sweat & blood ;) 6425mm 2 heavy nosferatu 1MWD 1tracking comp II 3cap rechargers II 2large armor repair or 1large and 1medium tech II 1explosive armor hardener 1kinetic armor hardener 2capa power relay 1damage mod Array of drones for fast-moving targets. Seems to work all right, though you have to be careful. I'd also recommend decent skills in engineering :) WTB Tempest with 7 low slots I ain't getting on no plane fool ....ooops wait, wrong guy

Hornymatt	Posted - 2004.09.15 09:43:00 - [45] My set up, for what it's worth :) 6 * 1400's (phased plasma) 2 * heavy arbs (widowmakers) 1 * Large C5-L emergenycy shield 2 * named shield hardners 1 * F-90 posititonal subroutines 1 * quad-lif mwd 2 * gyro II's 2 * tracking enhancer II's 1 * RCU I :( 1 * warp core stabiliser I don't tank particularly as this is a ranged set up and NPC's are easy to keep at range (unlike PvP). If the bs is with normal cruiser rats i used phased plasma ammo and engage around 70km, if escorted by those little things that rush up to you to scramble you i switch to proton at 100km. I've managed to pick up a number of named modules so i suspect that off the shelf one's may not fit so easily. My (relevant) ship fitting skills are elctronis and engineering both at 5.

Steeldrake	Posted - 2004.09.15 10:55:00 - [49] Edited by: Steeldrake on 15/09/2004 11:01:53 Tbh I'm pretty confused about the 1400s. Some guys said that you can't even hit a station, some others said that they work properly and so included them in their setup. What's the reason for these so different opinions? Different skills in the character? Different skills in the people?

Grim Vandal	Posted - 2004.09.15 11:12:00 - [51] well the 1400mm is funny ... it has the highest dmg modifier of any large gun but also the lowest dot of any large gun combined with lowest tracking, noobish ammo, reloading and lowest rof, least chance of wrecking hit and misses which hurt the gun the most due to the low rof ... it simply sucks even on a tempest whatever the awesome ability to change your dmg not even to a specific dmg type and the no cap usage all makes up for it god bless tomb Greetings Grim

Hornymatt	Posted - 2004.09.15 14:53:00 - [53] Must admit i have no real complaints about the 1400's. Using them on agent missiles at the 60km warp in i can hit well using phased plasma typically 300-500 per shot, as smaller craft close range they also stop flying straight down your gun barells and so the transeverse velocity goes up. Typically within 30km i wouldn't want to have to rely on 1400's to remove the enemy, that's what i have heavy missiles and drones for. Imho when out belt NPC hunting, the relatively "poor" performance of the 1400's is just the other side of their low risk, a 'thron with blasters will do far more damage in a short space of time but you need to be in the enemies face with all the risks that that entails if things go pears-shaped. To my knowledge no-one's ever been warp scrambled at 100km's True it's not exactly edge-of-your seat stuff, but from what i've heard that's what PvP is for Btw i must admit that i've only recently started going outside empire space again and only encountered lower level bs's, so if things change radically when you go out really deep, appologies... just speaking from my personal experiences

Edit : Grim Vandal's basically sums up what is wrong and soppose we just have to wait longer to see if/when anything is done..

Hornymatt	Posted - 2004.09.15 16:00:00 - [57] I suspected that might be the case Zu Lu, as i said my experience was just with NPC's which aren't the sharpest tools in the box - a real brain wouldn't sit there relatively passively while you're popping it at 100km it would probably warp out then back in behind you. That's why my set up is no tank, i wouldn't have a chance with my published set up if anyone got in close and scrambled me

Deadzone	Posted - 2004.09.15 18:18:00 - [59] Hmm, funny how you say proj are not for NPC hunting. Mine kick their ass. But maybe I just know here the sweet spot is since I actually took the time to go out, test, and find it. 5x 1400, 3x siege, 1x hvy 1x MWD, 1x targ comp, 1x hvy cap booster w/ charges, 2x Tech 2 cap boosters 1x Lrg named armour repairer, 1x thermal hardener, 1x EM hardener, 1x T2 proj dmg mod, 2x Reactor II's, something else I can't recall atm. AND don't forget your drones to kill the elite frigs .....these will kill you faster than the BS's!!! I can take a spawn of 2x 1.5mil BS and all support ships in this setup. If I get 3x BS, I keep my MAX range until one is dead, and then can close in a bit cloer for bigger hits. the 3x siege really help on this setup for added torp firepower! Good luck. Just be VERY careful. These ships can kill you if you don't know what you are doing, are don't pay attention for a matter of secs.
