With the new arty alpha boost how long do you think it will take before the major trade hub undocks are full with them?
i just did a little EFT warrioring and you can get a whooping 10k alpha

I would with minmatar battleship L5 as the 25% damage bonus would cancel out the extra damage from 2 more guns... And tempest would be a smaller loss isk wise.

So, what you're telling me is that ONLY battleship pilots with Matari BS 5 will be able to make use of the Tempest, otherwise the Maelstrom does more DPS/Alpha?

right because when you have a chance of making some serious bank, the marginal isk loss on a BS hull makes a difference, right? |

The extra dps and the isk difference do make a difference. Why pay for more turrets and a L3 BS when it's not just unnecessary, but takes longer to get the job done? How fast you accomplish your goal matters, too.

Your numbers are way off, its possible to get 15k alpha using a machariel or maelstrom, havent checked a tempest yet. Signature needs to be more EVE related. Zymurgist |

the tempest is more cost effective, it only has 6 turrets but it gets a damage bonus rather than a ROF bonus. the mael might as well have unbonused guns. the ROF bonus is useless really because your going to want to alpha the target. ROF doesnt matter then its somewhere around 30 s . if yo plan it right you can alpha ships with concord sitting right next to them because its only the first shot that counts, you get slightly less DPS witht the tempest, but much better alpha
also, use hail if tracking isnt an issue. or domination(better alpha than RF)

ITT: People fail at maths. Maelstrom does more turret alpha than the Tempest despite not having a damage bonus 8x1 = 8 effective turrets. 6x1.25 = 7.5 effective turrets.
Although I guess you get two unbonused siege launchers on the Tempest, if thats what you meant.

Yeah, but I would assume people would have already guessed you can use the last 2 slots for other fun stuff.

Because of course people that can't pilot a Tempest with Matari BS V can obviously use a Maelstrom with Lev 5 stats.

Some gankers want to keep the cost right down, some are willing to pay a bit more to ensure the job is done, or on harder jobs.

Good understanding of EvE you have there >.> strategic cruiser on undock going ~500-600m/s with most likely 80% resists is going to take more than 2-3 tempests to 1 shot it -.-
