Pretty much that. The rupture and arbi are both really good t1 cruisers but the rupture would simply eat the arbi alive.

Dual tracking disruptors tend to be a gang fit though and even triple td's will be of little use if the rupture webs and scrams the arbi killing off any meanigful transversal. I'm not saying its a 100% thing but really if both pilots are equally skilled the rupture should almost always come out on top.
Rupture is a solid solo boat and gang damage soak/dealer where the arbi is a bit problematic solo but much better suited to a gang with lots of ew fitted so like I said both are really good t1 ships but the ruptures gank nature will turn the arbi's meh dps into a liability. |

Ehm, wat? Have you flown one yourself? If you're not fitting TDs on an Arbi, you're totally daft. It's stupidly powerful. And against a Rupture you wouldn't be using the tracking scripts, you'd be using the range scripts, reducing his range to absolutely nothing, then web him right back to keep him away.
I said dual td's not a single td as like furb said you need the mwd, web, point if your going to try to solo in it. A rupture will have the same mids sans the td and as it has better dps and is faster than the arbi it will just mwd right into the arbi and chew that 1600 plate to bits with the bonused ac's and if he is smart he will use his own drones to force the arbi pilot to recall drones and cut the dps even more. Its a gank boat vs an ew boat thats banus has limited use vs an in its face opponent. But as always the level of real pilot skill varies wildly so the perfect matchup with equally skilled players in the mythical 1 vs 1 will probably never happen ans so make this thread and all others like it moot. Bottom line if you think the guy flying the rupture is a better pilot than you then avoid engaging as it takes a crafty arbi pilot to have a chance to kill a rupture in a 1 vs 1. |

Ok lets save a whole bunch of time and poor lurkers sanity and cut to the end of the eventual page 27.
Someone warps in the titan and activates the dd.
Thread over. Nobody wins.
