Imo, that isk can be better used to by new ships...
Out of curriosity, do you buy isk (with plexes)?
Just wondering since I think a lot about cost effectivenss of all my ships (nothign like my 9 Mill cruiser who kills all frigates regardless, hehe)
I'll swoop in before anybody says anything rofl!
There are some threads with me selling plexes but despite what that may look like I assure you I am quite poor irl.
I have been independently wealthy in Eve for a couple of years now due to some good ol' fun with some ex-corpies and now work as an EOH Poker staff banker. So I have a good income.
I think about cost effectiveness when I take my corpmates out to fight, but otherwise I just throw ISK into ships because it's my hobby.
Fair enough dude 
Nice to see someone who makes isk in more creative ways, and I guess meta gaming makes more isk then ratting (not a bad thing) 
If I could afford such ships I guess I too would buy them, tho I like crusier sized ships the most persoanlly . For now tho I am happy with T2 fitted faction cruisers, hehe. --- "And thus, another of the world's dreamers died, taking his dreams with him. Just as John Lennon wanted world peace, Gerald Bull simply wanted a gun big enough to fire **** into space." |

Yeah, I understand your position. I talk with my corpmates a lot about new faction fits and stuff I think up and they think it's great. Then I look at their fits and see all tech 2 and think that's great too.
Why? Because I understand that the majority of players flying faction ships will have maybe one or two faction mods on it and that's it. That means that if you throw 100 guys with faction ships into a room together I really doubt you'd find a lot of tricked out fully faction fitted over-the-top ships, and more of the moderately priced variety. That is totally okay. The fact is, faction ships give great bonuses, and all I like to do is further enhance the abilities those bonuses give by fitting faction to them.
I was out flying around with my corpmates today for a small roam. I was in my Ashimmu which has faction/deadspace everything. Thing is, we brought along my corpmate's Damnation and he had Interdiction Maneuvers on it as well as Passive Defense. I checked out my 23.5km 90% web and started drooling. I mean, seriously that's ridiculous. If you were using say, tech 2 you'd get that 90% web strength out to like 18km and that would be totally fine for normal play.
A lot of people knock setups for being expensive. I say fly it if you have the money and care about the ships. People who soup up their cars spend literally thousands of dollars for some nice paint or a few extra horsepower. I think in the same way. Faction is my hobby.

Sit back and whittle down your opponent slowly while he struggles to get past your 14k EHP and +80 dps regen.
Ha Ha Ha. Sit back? How? You have no propulsion and no web. Any standard Rifter will blow you away in no time. AB on, approach at an angle, orbit 500m, guns and NOS on, pulse armour repper as required, Game Over. Rails won't be able to hit and 2 launchers won't do enough DPS on a moving target.

Originally by: King Rothgar Using meta 5 and below, I don't see how you could break 50M even with t2 rigs, never mind 500M. Meta 5 and below means no faction/deadspace and that stuff is the only way I know of to make a true t1 frigate cost so much. In any case, don't spend that much. It's just silly especially for a dinky competition like that.
I've spent about 2.6 bil in pirate faction ammo in the past month.
The fit I had in mind required 300 mil for 3 ammo crystals.
Mahke I like that fit a lot. It certainly fits my style, but I am super-concerned about the lack of MWD or cap booster. :| First guy with a neut kicks me out of the tournament, I worry.
LOL 2.6 B ISK on ammo? You sure die often then, be sure that you keep your cargoholds full of faction ammo!
Seriously, nobody is using billions on faction ammo...
Or are you ratting with faction ammo?

Pirate faction ammo, not navy ammo. As I understand it.
Check the market on pirate ammo and you will see that is a whole lot more expencive. --- "And thus, another of the world's dreamers died, taking his dreams with him. Just as John Lennon wanted world peace, Gerald Bull simply wanted a gun big enough to fire **** into space." |

Without a mod, perhaps.
Assuming all level V:
Low: 2 x OD II
Mid: Catalyzed cold gas mwd SB II w/ range script
Hi: 2 x Black Eagle DLA (are these in game and right meta? haven't checked, so assuming)
rigs: 3 x small drone speed aug. II
made of tissue, 3148m/s (4505m/s overload) Lock range = 70km w/ warrior II's, speed = 8800, 48 dps w/ hob II's, speed = 5126, 59 dps control range = not sure of the total, but the DLA's alone add 52km, should easily hit 70.
Risky, but if you start far enough apart and can keep the range it could work. If they can hit you from word go, you die.
These numbers are sans implants, btw I like violet more then pink.

That's sorta what I was thinking about, also targeting is only necessary to order the drones to attack in the first place, they should still keep attacking out to the max control range. Though this would be a lot better if good-meta drones existed. Oh well.

Wait, what? 300 Mil for 3 crystals....I'm no mathematician, but that sounds like 100 mil per crystal.
Huh?

In Jita (where I can find the best supply), Dark Blood crystals cost about 116 mil a whack (for medium and small. I don't have a ship I want to use larges on.)

You cant build a frigate that will beat every other frigate no matter how much you spend. You may come up against a frig that perma jams you or can dictate range better with long range weapons or is quick enough to web and scram you and then pummel you will superior dps.
Stop trying to buy skill- you will fail miserably.
