Originally by: Randuin MaraL
Originally by: turnschuh can someone tell my why so many ppl suggest 1L and 1M armor rep? you dont have enough cap to run them both anyway and you loose one slot for eg a 1600mm plate
You keep the M sized running auto and boost if needed manually with the L one. Maybe? 
Only if the Med is more efficient than the Large.
I think the idea is the stacking penalty. After so many hardners it becomes better to fit a repper. My favorite is
4xdual 425, 4x siege MWD Large rep hardners Gyro II Ballistic Control mod II
Though I always try to remove the AB/MWD and get good position by gate camping or the like.
Bottom line though is the Tempest is better iwth its 6 guns.

Well I'd like some advice - I'll post my setup and you let me know what you think. (I'm fairly new to this - been concentrating on mining)
My aim is to do level 3 missions perhaps a few level 4's
HI : 4 x Medium Autocannonc 4 x Siege Launchers
MED : 1 100mn AB Heavy Cap booster (using 400 charges) 1 target disruption thingy general against all types 1 Webber
LO : 1 Large Armour repairer II 3 Active Hardeners (50% to the three weakest) 1 Passive Hardener 15% for all 2 Tungston Plates (3360 to Armour per unit)

Your setup will be fine for level 3s. As long as you arent an idiot, you can do pretty much what you want with a BS in level 3s and you'll be fine. It could be more efficient, though.
I'd suggest a tractor beam for picking up loot as you go if you're into that (personally I dont bother, loot is so bad it isnt worth the time), and dropping your siege to cruise or heavy for level 3s - torpedoes are great anti battleship, but wasteful vs the cruisers and frigates that inhabit the missions you're doing.
I'd also suggest dropping the injector as it won't be needed, and replacing whatever EW mod you suggest with a target painter. Target painter+webber=all your guns can hti annoying NPC interceptors, and so can your drones. They waste a lot of time to kill if you arent set up to deal with them, and time = money.
For your lows, so much armour plating really isn't needed and detracts from your speed and hence income. You're hardened so much you will barely have to worry about your rep on level 3s, so instead I'd replace those two plates with damage mods, for faster killing.
Level 4s? I woudln't bother trying. Minmatar ships struggle with them, and even when you can do them, its so inefficient time wise that farming level 3s makes you more money. Really, if you want to do level 4s and make them worthwhile, you need a Raven or a Dominix, or a faction BS such as a Machariel. Stick with the level 3s until you can get out to 0.0 and rat as soon as you can find a way, if you really want to roll in cash.

I use my phoon for lv4 mission and i have not many problems...
can solo an extravaganza whitout troubles... is sloooow ok but is worth around 20m
generally i use a setup with heavy missiles + arty
it works quite well for frigates and cruisers, some BS are a bit slow to kill but in the end i think the performance is acceptable
(i also think that when phoon will get its new mod it will be veeeery good for mission runs)

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.

Or replace 1 plating to a expl 1 coz you still keep the lw expl recistance ,wich in 0.0 is not good ;)

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.

I don't get so many people are saying 10 drones? Without a DCU, what good is carrying 10 drones except for replacements?

Absolutely brutal endurance:
Highs-
2x heavy dim nos, 2x med T2 or dim nos (med dim are expensive), 4x T2 Siege launchers w/ faction torps.
Mids-
T2 MWD, fleeting web, T2 24km scram, T2 heavy injector w/ 800s
Lows-
2x T2 LAR, T2 kin/therm/exp hardeners, T2 eanm, T2 DC
Rigs-
2x Rep amount, 1x Rep cycle time
Drones-
5x Ogre IIs, 5x Vespa EC-600 ECM drones.
Very flexible setup. Your drones can kill the smaller ships that your Torps can't. The Nos crushes anything smaller than another BS. The 2x medium nos are worth about 1.25 heavy nos, but at a reduced range, so you still need to get close if you're being out-nossed.
Faction torps hit for big damage, plus you can vary your damage type at will, and you don't have any range or tracking issues at all. And they don't use cap.
You can tank most BS with one rep. Turn on the second one if you're up against a Blasterthron and make him scoop his drones. He'll never break your tank, even with max skills and Neutron IIs.

You used to be able to use 10 Drones, but then CCP made it so you could only use 5, and also halved the drone bay size.

Good luck fitting that. I realize you think beating a megathron in a typhoon is very easy (as you have posted in other threads a few times) - perhaps its not quite as easy if you actually try fitting a phoon in the game and not on paper

Well I can't be sure if this is gonna even be read or commented on.......... ok anyway I like to see how many different setups you guys have but what the hell is an mwd on a bs good for? you get webbed and poof a wasted slot, I'm more aiming towards a strong tank with very high resists *about 80-90% across the board* I don't mind fitting 4 800mms, and 4 cruise launchers *and yes I can fit them I allready did*, since the new nos rules it's useless now, at least for fighting someone with less cap than you. so I would love to read about a worthy setup that does ok damage, has a really really nice armor tank setup, and something good to see for the meds *target painter, webber, warp scram, and possible a cap recharger*. I dunno need input

also I'd like to add, *please just put generic names for the fittings, I can figure out from there which is best, using abbrivs and crap make it really confusing*.
