Okay, so I've always wanted a middle of the line fihgter that was really powerful and wasn't as slow or large as a batleship. So I'm getting a battlecruiser. I want to do some PVP, PVE (I think that means fighting an NPC.) and maybe some pirating. So I'm looking for a fitting that you guys think would be good for all three of those. Preferably one that doesn't require three months of training. I need to train my learning after all.
Just assume I have little skills and that all the fnacy modules: Electronic warfare stuff ect. I can't use.
Thank you for your replies.. I hope I manage to find something that works.

Just get a Drake for missions. That extra 10mil is worth it on so many levels.

I didn't think about the price.. 20 mil is rather difficult to make in a couple of days.. Any Ideas as to PVE?
@Duch: Well, thing about the drake is I've already bought the skills. And I believe it is electronic warfare oriented?

Drakes are not electronic warfare oriented, I don't know what you got that information from. By skills, I'm assuming that you meant you already bought gunnery skills for the Ferox. They should be really cheap anyway (less than 500k for the set?), so that shouldn't be much of a set back if you choose to go for the Drake instead. The Drake is much better than the Ferox in both PvE and PvP, provided that your missile skills is comparable to your gunnery skills. The only reason people use Ferox for pvp purposes is that... well, people underestimate them because they are more frequently fail-fit than Drakes (and also for gunnery-specced players).
Since it seems that you are relatively poor and sp deficient, I would keep the battlecruiser for pve only and stick to Merlins and Griffins for pvp.

Actually, a Drake is much the same as my Ferox build. But it has more dps and more tank. :)
Its 10 mill more pricy, but thats not a whole lot when you take insurance into account.
Drake however needs lots of missile skills to really shine. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Drake is not special. It needs as much missile skills as other ships with their own primary weapon systems.

Maybe I should have been more clear... PVP doesn't happen often in my corp. I more or less want it for PVE. Since drakes are missle oriented.. My missle skills suck.

the drake is not EW orientated its pure missile and tank orientated, check outa few of the otehr forum posts about drakes that are in this ships and moduels forum you will find alot of good ideas. if your hell bent on the ferox then yes the above fitting is a good idea. and try to pvp a lil in a moa first if you wanna use guns and a caracal if you want to try missiles they will be cheaper and give you a good basis to learn from. the only ew orientated ships are blackbird and its t2 variants and the scorpion (for caldari that is)
AND further more, Carthage must be destroyed!! |

EDIT: dam you guys post fast. on another note half of what i said has already been said, but getting the extra isk shouldn't be a problem one u start pve you can rake it in so to speak. give the ferox a shot see what you think and then if you are gonna go pvp try a moa or caraccal first.
For PVP I was going to stick with a destroyer. When I ment PVP in a ferox I meant with my corp members in other ships and I'll tank a little. Destroy the big stuff... But mainly PVE.

Edited by: Amalinze Tehkat on 27/11/2009 19:25:12 The Drake is hands down the best BC in the game, bar none, for PVE or PVP. The Ferox is almost never used, because it is worse than all the other T1 BC's (Prophecy doesn't count, it isn't flown.)
Train for a drake. You're already caldari, and there's no good reason to be training hybrid skills anyway.
*Edit
Drake vs. Ferox
Drake does more damage, and has selectable damage types (essential for pve) Drake has better tank, and requires absolutely 0 thought to fit.
Drake costs 10 mil more Drake is one of the most hideous ship models in the game.
Any moron can fly a drake with a minimum of SP and be a PVE machine. Doooo it.

You should really reconsider your skillpath. Skilling hybrid turrets and caldari ships will lead you to a dead end. No Marauder, no dread, no faction ship, nothing. And the ships you get are usually outperformed by their amarrian counterparts. At least, Falcon is now a turret ship \o/.

This.
Hate to say it but you picked the wrong race. The Rokh is a great ship but a huge time investment to really shine as well as a nichT role, while in the meantime you're left for the most part with mediocre Gallente wannabe ships.
A Drake with even modest skills will outperform a Ferox to a huge degree. When I got my first Drake my missiles were iffy and the less said about my fit the better, but it steamrollered every level 3 effortlessly.
Really, just train missiles or train another race. If you're going heavy on gunnery you could do so much better with Amarr.

The Ferox really isn't the best ship out there; the Drake is a better platform for almost all uses. But hey, it can still do stuff. The real problem is that it falls into the class of ships that just doesn't perform as well as the alternatives. But if you want to use it, more power to you. I still think it's one of the best-looking hulls in the game.
For PvP (requires good fitting and cap skills and absolutely requires T2 guns):
[Ferox, blerox 2] Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Damage Control II
10MN MicroWarpdrive II X5 Prototype I Engine Enervator J5b Phased Prototype Warp Scrambler I Invulnerability Field II Large Shield Extender II
Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Null M [empty high slot]
Medium Ancillary Current Router I Medium Core Defence Field Extender I Medium Core Defence Field Extender I
For PvE (less intensive but the cap skills are still highly relevant; T2 guns not strictly required):
[Ferox, mishin] Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Power Diagnostic System II
Y-S8 Hydrocarbon I Afterburners Large Shield Extender II Large Shield Extender II Ballistic Deflection Field II Heat Dissipation Field II
200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M 200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M 200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M 200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M 200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M 200mm Railgun II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M [empty high slot]
Medium Ancillary Current Router I Medium Core Defence Field Purger I Medium Core Defence Field Purger I
Hobgoblin II x5
For better or for worse, I still think this is a better PvP fit despite not taking advantage of one of the ship bonuses (and absolutely requires T2 pulses):
[Ferox, fmp] Heat Sink II Heat Sink II Heat Sink II Damage Control II
10MN MicroWarpdrive I Invulnerability Field II Large Shield Extender II Medium Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 800 Warp Disruptor II
Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Focused Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Large S95a Partial Shield Transporter
Medium Core Defence Field Extender I Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I
(Oh, and put Warrior IIs on either PvP fit. I was just apparently too lazy to do so in EFT. And don't feel bad about dropping the shield transfer on the last one.)
Bottom line still remains: get a Drake for easy mode. Ferox really does require quite a bit of investment in order to make it work well. Get those gunnery supports up regardless, though. It will help in the long run.

Okay, so, I ripped out my EVE fitting tool and selected the Harbinger.. Amarr. It has bonus to lasers. I have the high slots figured out.. Only 85 DPS though.. I've used up one low slot and now I don't know what I should do with the rest of the low slots... It will only take me a couple of skills to train so if you guys have any suggestions on the guns.. I'd like to hear those too.

Well i assume you got that from the ship description. Heres a word of advice, never ever ever, listen to the Ship discription. It's hardly accurate, the thing to pay attention to is its bonus's (and even then, sometimes thier wrong :P)

Edited by: Duchess Starbuckington on 28/11/2009 17:05:47 I'll break this down for you so you can see where it's going wrong:
Medium armor repairer. - No. Buffer tank it. Nothing in the rest of the low slots. - Why?
10MN afterburner - No. Use a MWD. Afterburners are worthless Medium shield booster - NO. NEVER try to armour and shield tank at once. Warp disrupter Langour drive
salvager Quad anode particle stream 1 multifrequency - Quad lights are horrible. Focused medium pulse IIs at the very least. (And the II part is non negotiable, it's scorch that makes lasers so good.)
Seriously, don't even try flying battlecruisers until you know the basics of how to fit a ship. I'd stick to cruisers and frigates for now.

focus more on training up your fitting skills. You need to be capable of fitting a ship properly before you fly it, otherwise your shiny Battlecruiser is less effective than a rookie ship. Too many times I see people trying to fly bigger ships as fast as they can because they think it automatically makes them better. This is false. Maximize your performance in frigates/cruisers through training and then move up to bigger ships. Also, stick with your caldari training, Engineering/Missiles and fly a Caracal, then drake, then raven as your training progresses.
Its better to be awesome in a frigate, than pathetic in a Battleship.

Since you need small gun skills before you roll with medium guns...
Magnetic field stabilizer II x3 Damage control II
10 mn mwd Scram Web Invulnerability field II 2x large shield extender II
6x light neutron blaster II Medium energy neut (If you're a team player you can train up siege warfare links down the road and put a shield harmonizing link here).
3x core defence field extender
5x warrior II
Get your gun support skills all up to at least IV - t2 smalls take less than a week to train up.
Very forgiving tank and you will slaughter overconfident af pilots orbiting you at 500m.
Then you laugh at killing ships worth more than your ferox.
When you max out your skills you'll be surprised to see this setup easily outputs over 400 dps and out tanks many other buffer tank bc!

Well, I've looked at prices and a battlecruiser is too expensive. So I've out fitted a destroyer. Here it is.
Low slots: Damager control II NO MORE LOW SLOTS.
Medium slots: Warp disrupter II 1MN Micro warp drive II Small capacitor booster II 200 charges X5 prototype Engine enverator NO MORE MEDIUM SLOTS.
High slots: 7 X small gataling pulse laser II Scorch. Salvager. NO MORE HIGH SLOTS.
Rigs: 2 X Small ancillary current router I Small energy boost Aerator I
So what do you guys think? Is 72 DPS good for a destroyer? ________________________________________________
