In an RR gang the Typhoon has more armour and better DPS than a Tempest. Sad but true!
Before the HP buff on all ships the Pest was allways the first choice for an FC to have his pilots fly. The Alphastrike was awsome and I remember getting wrecking shots well over 3k (sometimes aproaching 4k on structure) with either Quake or EMP . Now with all the guns stacked you are lucky to get over 2k for all 6 guns and that's on a full gank setup.
There is a reason that there are more MegaT's, Apocs, Geddons and even Rokhs now in fleet snipe setups.
PPL can post all the setups they want from EFT and argue till they are blue in the face that the Pest is fine and if you can't make it work you are doing it wrong etc etc etc. Sure you can use it and I'd still like to use it but as it stands with the way Projectiles are and the way the Pest has it's bonus's now there are far better ships at a smaller cost to use if you have the relevent skills!

Thoughts?
Agreed I'm going to repackage my trimark rigged Phoons and buy 2 Pests for every 3 Phoons I sell.
It's worth it as they have less HP's, less DPS and less dronespace so obviously far superior!

You know the single multispec ECM makes sense!
Oh yeah I forgot the cost of the insurance is more as well so that's even more incentive.

Highs 6x 1400mm Howi IIs with tremor Mids 2x Large Shield Extender IIs 1x Invul field II 1x Tracking Comp II optimal range 1x Quad Booster MWD Lows 1x RCU II 2X Gyro IIs 2x Tracking Enhancer IIs 1x DCU II Rigs 3x Core Defence Field Extender Is
289 Dps with Reload on 152+44 Optimal/Falloff 84,205 EHP
Maybe swap one Rig for em hardner rig?
Would be a mean fit if you could drop the RCU for a Gyro or another tracking enhancer.(Aka massage powergrid)
Or if artys had a better optimal/falloff could be pretty sick to drop the tc for another invul Also clip size on arty is too Freaking small.
You need to check your targeting range and then ask yourself why you'd be fitting long range ammo.
