well I have done some listening to what you said and basically have changed my setup.
Level 3's are so cake it's untrue.
HI
4 Large dual 650 autocannons
4 Cruise Launchers
MED
2 Cap Rechargers
1 webber
1 Target Painter
LO
3 active Hardeners (50%)
1 passive hardener against all damage (15%)
2 armour plates (3360 each)
1 Large Armour repairer II
Now tonight I'm looking to try a level 4 mission with a friend in a BC, I'll let you know how it goes but does that setup sound resonable? - I might look to changing the Cruise missiles for Torps would that be better for a level 4?
I am also going to use medium drones and my friend will take lights, he will deal with any frigs and smaller ships.
You will find that replacing your adaptive plating (the passive one) with a damage control system 2 gives you slightly better armor resistances, plus some shield resists and the all important structure resists that have saved my humble phoon more than a few times.
My phoon is similar to yours, but I favor lasers over the autocannons (meaning, my gunnery skills do).
And just FYI, dual 425 'scout' is better at ABSOLUTELY everything than your dual 625s. Literally, everything.
For missions I nix the webber and painter and don 4 cap recharger 2s in the midslots, allowing me to run my entire ship indefinitely: 4 large lasers, an assault missile launcher (defenders), a siege, 2 cruise, my armor repper and my hardeners. I enjoy not worrying about my capacitor.
I'm considering buying a second phoon and fitting it in the ever popular nano setup (4 cruise/4 nos, mwd/warp/web/cap boost, 4 nanofiber/2 inertia stab/ballistic control). Thoughts?
And a final PS: People seem to be ignoring almost entirely the fact that the phoon has one of the largest drone bays of any bs. Any thoughts to nixing 1 or even 2 lasers/guns for some drone control range augmentors? I already have the (EXPENSIVE) drone range augmenting rig, but two of these babies would put my drones out to 100KM, and with a good bay (5 larges, 5 mediums), your drones make a more devastating weapon than anything else you can equip.
