d3vo	Posted - 2009.12.23 16:08:00 - [1] I'm looking to do some solo pvp with an AF. Which would be the best one? I was thinking the Ishkur...got any suggestions. This will probably be for low sec solo roaming kind of stuff... __________ \(^.^)/
Samaritan Azuma Garoun Investment Bank	Posted - 2009.12.23 16:11:00 - [2] ishkur and thats it for popping pods at stations ... 150mm harpy w/ scan res rigs and antimatter If it weren't for downtime, I wouldn't make stupid posts.
Zaius Caine	Posted - 2009.12.23 16:20:00 - [3] Ishkur or Jaguar. Both are powerful and versatile ships.

Swap the explosive hardener to a damage control at least. You almost always need some form of damage control on frigates and almost all ships for pvp. And you can try to do neutrons instead of ions but you might lose the neut. I just think a neut and a small repper hurts your cap really bad. So maybe passive in the lows without a repper and add a neut or jsut drop the neut and keep the repper and upgrade to neutrons loaded with nulls.
Proxyyyy Caldari The Tuskers	Posted - 2009.12.24 01:01:00 - [10] D3vo i fought this setup most recently i think its not as well rounded as the repper version, but it didnt die quickly against my rupture. I was neuting it thinking it would just drop but it took forever. I prolly should have kited it, but if it was the active tank version you should always go close enough to neut it. Without cap these active repper assault frigs drop quick!

Arch Widowmaker	Posted - 2009.12.24 01:40:00 - [12] I think it's a mistake to use neut on a repper fit without a cap booster. I'd use a nos instead. Proxyyy's fit would be nice against frigs. If I'm hunting cruisers, I usually trade my web for a cap injector. Hey prox!
Stuart Price Caldari The Black Rabbits The Gurlstas Associates	Posted - 2009.12.24 04:14:00 - [13] Properly fitted Harpy. Always. If you have to engage at 13k or less, you will get trapped eventually. If you rely on drones they will die often, forcing you to resupply (and cost to do so). Harpy does not worry about either of those things. It can outfight MOST things faster than it and run from MOST things that can outfight it. Nothing it perfect obviously, but I feel a lot safer in a Harpy than in another AF. Putting the 'irate' into 'Pirate'

Haniblecter Teg F.R.E.E. Explorer Wildly Inappropriate.	Posted - 2009.12.24 07:25:00 - [17] Put a neut on that ishkur and you're golden. Other than that, the jag can bring the ewar and have some space left for a tank. Gogo turret disrupting MWD'ing frigate. ----------------- Friends Forever
Sovereign Enterprise Gallente Crimson Empire. Aeternus.	Posted - 2009.12.24 08:04:00 - [18] A neut on an active tanked ishkur is just asking for death, it can't speed tank anything because it's so damn slow.

It only has problems with AB dual MSE jags, because they have stupid buffer, and can move faster than you unless you spam the MWD, killing your cap and your sig radius. A corpmate and I flying two ishkurs fit like this beat a curse once, since the cap injector still lets you rep.
Dursun Idris	Posted - 2009.12.24 10:38:00 - [19] I like jaguar for solo roam as AF. Enough slots to fit buffer point web and nano-gyro. And solo rule 1 for me is "run away before **** happens". If you are a lone wolf, you hunt rabbits instead of deers and run away when lions came. Just my opinion.
Emperor Ryan Amarr Imperial Syndicate Forces Systematic-Chaos	Posted - 2009.12.24 10:48:00 - [20] Edited by: Emperor Ryan on 24/12/2009 10:48:19 Originally by: Zaius Caine Originally by: Arrador Retribution Hmmm. Lets see. Retri sucks for solo since it cant tackle. Retri sucks for gang since it cant tackle. Yep, Retri sucks. You're an Idiot retribution is the best gang Af for the soul reason that it kicks out 200 dps + at over 20km of range with t2 ammo. It cannot tackle, that's true, but to be a gang ship you do not need tackle. (Do sniper parts of fleet carry tackle/ no, does that mean they suck, No) should have thought about that. For solo the retribution can only bait and hope to be tackled and kill of the tackler before they warp so they are not built for solo work. - Emperor

"Best AF for solo" And flying a frigate-sized ship in a gang that can't tackle is just laughable. Unless you're in an AF swarm for "lulz" you are flying the wrong ship. Also, best solo AF is the dual prop Ishkur. Hands down.

Proxyyyy Caldari The Tuskers	Posted - 2009.12.24 17:14:00 - [23] Emperor Ryan seems to have a good understanding of how the retribution works. ill add that it can solo and if you have a good understanding of the coecer then you'll know how to fly and fit the retribution. It should do real well at solo'ing blobs tbh! Warp in at 100k. align ceptor rushes you and you pop him in 1-3 vollies depending on how its fit of course. Shoot i have solo'ed blobs in ships not optimum for the job but this should excel at it. Like many things said on the forums they have never used the ship they comment on but have alot of opinions on how to fly and fit them! Im fairly sure if you bring this ship to null sec and warp in at 100k of a blob they will just laugh and charge in. Why is that? cause of lack of understanding of the ships they are engaging. Its less likely to work in low sec and fw where these ships are used the most! Also i suggest that anyone if they are intrested, fit up a coecer and ask a friend to fit up a standard ishkur. You will then figure out how dangerous these ships are and how much damage they can put down in a short about of time. This ship should be used at range and kiting bursting your mwd off and on, same with the retribution. So the retribution is a t2 version of the coecer; 180/dps with scorch 20k optimal 2300m/sec Retribution Adaptive Nano Plating II Small Armor Repairer II Tracking Enhancer II Tracking Enhancer II Heat Sink II 1MN MicroWarpdrive I Dual Light Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S Medium Pulse Laser II, Scorch S [empty high slot] Small Energy Burst Aerator I Small Energy Collision Accelerator I This is the coecer!

Kingwood Amarr Hello Kitty Pyjama Piwates	Posted - 2009.12.24 19:25:00 - [26] Edited by: Kingwood on 24/12/2009 19:27:19 Everyone who praises the Retri must be trolling or new in Eve. You either fit a Scrambler, and then get killed by any T1 Cruiser who wants to shoot you (gee, you can't run). Or you fit an AB and anything you could kill either runs from you or just laughs at your non-existing tackle and warps out (stupid Inty pilots bum-rushing a Retri don't count). T1 cruisers with MWD will still catch and kill you at will. Or you actually fit an MWD and try to be useful as some sort of mobile 180DPS platform, when you could just as well sit in an Omen and apply DPS just as well, just as fast, and with more DPS (it also has 3 mids, so you can actually tackle).

Smabs	Posted - 2009.12.25 04:31:00 - [30] Back on the coercer and retri - the thing about them is that the dps is huge and the extremely high tracking lets the guns apply pretty much all of the damage you see on eft. I've seen a friend using a coercer like that and it often kills a ceptor in just two or three volleys, often before it gets time to warpout (unless the pilot is really on the ball). Yes, you get people escaping but generally the idea is to make it completely into a glass cannon.
Diabolick	Posted - 2009.12.25 05:17:00 - [31] Ishkur fit 3 x Small Ion blaster II's, small nos II AB, scram, Coreli c type rep, Energized Explo membrane, Suitcase. 2 ANP 5 warrior t2 5 hobs t2 The 3rd mid is a utility mid for me, solo i use cap booster, gang a web and a sebo for camping empire wt's. Faction rep is 10mil~ so doesnt break the bank and puts back over 110 armour per cycle. Warriors for frigs, Hobs for bigger.

Without it, 23.5% resists is very low in my opinion. I agree with the Exp hardener, I use that myself. Overheated hardener is supernice. I'd use repping rigs instead of the CCC's. However, by doing that, your ship will get really slow and you won't have a chance against keeping ships like Jags etc. It tanks really well and could be useful against cruisers. Edit: Hunting cruisers in AB is nice if you know you get him into scram range (like gates/stations in FW), but probably not worth the kiting risk if you're a belthunter. That dual propped fit looks very interesting!

Icarus Flame Amarr The Tuskers	Posted - 2009.12.25 09:36:00 - [34] Proxyyy is right about laser pwnships, just wrong about the Retri. The Coercer does essentially the same thing, with less EHP, more tracking, and with a bit less speed. There's no sense in flying a Retri for gangs when a Coercer will do it better for cheaper. THAT's why the Retribution really and truly sucks - its last potential role is taken up by a destroyer.

Proxyyyy Caldari The Tuskers	Posted - 2009.12.25 16:23:00 - [37] I cant convice people who have never engaged or flown the coecer that it is a pwn ship! Of course in most situitions its better to fly a destroyer over an af. But this thread is about looking for af's that are good solo! Since i have already stated that i feel the jag/ishkur are prolly the best overall and i have always argued destroyers are a better choice in most cases over an af for a long time even before the hype! Which people laughed at me about btw and said i dont know what im talking about = / I dont follow eve o forums hypes or trends atleast if i dont think they warrent said hype! I do my own thing and come to my own conclusions threw empirical methods. Pretty much based off my own experiences in-game! Most af's dont excel in fleets except the Retribution, Ishkur, Harpy and Hawk. Why is that? because they are able to engage at range! Most af's excel at solo pvp and should prolly only be used in that environment. The retribution solo is better than the coecer in almost everyway except cost to preformance, i still think it should be considered...

Every post Proxyyyy makes about a ship boasts the "experience" he has flying with it. The experience of 400 lifetime kills, woo! I'm not pretending to have arsed with reading through your whole discussion, nor looked at respective poster's killboard. I was only budging in because you made it look as if 400 kills isn't enough to back your claims on a topic such as which AF would be the best for solo work. It's a quite subjective matter and there are other factors not being mentioned here. For instance where you hunt and what the opposition looks like in your area. That's pherhaps one of the most important aspects when selecting a ship and its fit, yet it's not something someone posting here can take into account. As for the topic I feel that no AF outside of 0.0 is worth the investment as a Tech 1 cruiser offers more bang for the buck. For above-scramler range engagements I feel that the Harpy has the upper hand and for sub-scrambler range the Ishkur is the king of its class. The Jaguar is interesting but I don't feel that it does either task any better than the above two.

If the Wolf mounts a MWD on the other hand, the roles are reversed. Putting the 'irate' into 'Pirate'
Cpt Cosmic	Posted - 2009.12.25 22:47:00 - [44] nice fail fits with AB =D what I like to fly is the wolf, might not be the best choice but it works nice 400mm plate gyro 2 TE =D (actually a good choice as you fight in falloff mostly it increase the dmg and makes the 200mm track as good as 125mm) MWD SCRAM 200mm AC and some rigs it is always funny to see how some frigs pilots (like rail harpies) think they can stay at range and then you switch to barrage and give them a nice surprise =D

Ignoring tracking, eft says 123 dps overloaded at 20km (sx-1,cx1,cgc100), I say 105ish dps. If you downgrade one of the TE's (change to falloff neglible) to meta4 you can fit a 20km point. Interestingly, with 150mm guns you can fit a small neut so you have something usefull to do with your cap if you get scrammed. Ship's with falloff bonuses got a nice boost with Dominon. - NO SPLIT WEAPON BONUSES ON THE NAGLFAR PLEASE!
d3vo	Posted - 2009.12.26 04:32:00 - [46] I feel it is important to have a neut. Also, it seems that the Wolf might be a better choice.

Proxyyyy Caldari The Tuskers	Posted - 2009.12.26 05:21:00 - [48] The nuet is mainly ment to deal with active tanking frigs. The harpy is no jaguar but the preformance is very close! You also have to watch your cap with this setup. It was created to defeat an active tank ishkur but you also need cap to run your weapon systems so be careful. This is my standard harpy fit; 9500/ehp 220/dps 835m/sec [Harpy, Harpy/B-0] Damage Control II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Medium Shield Extender II 1MN Afterburner II Warp Scrambler II Stasis Webifier II Light Electron Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Electron Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Electron Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Electron Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Small Energy Neutralizer II Small Hybrid Burst Aerator I Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
