I'm looking for a solo Rook setup.
Any suggestions?

Now I'm no expert here, but I don't think Solo and Rook go in the same sentence, anyone care to confirm?

1) Go to www.eve-search.com
2) Type "Rook" and "Solo" into the search bar, then refine your search by choosing only the Ships and Modules Subforum - then click SEARCH.
3) Find this thread on the first page, from last December.
Doing your own research can be fun and rewarding.
Alternatively, flesh out your post with more details - for example - like where you intend to fly it (Empire/0.0/Low Security) OR contribute your own fitting for review.

Edited by: Ira Astrum on 09/01/2010 00:22:40 As much as I love the Rook, I have to say that solo it runs into a few problems. The biggest of which is that to use a MWD with HAMs you're having to sacrifice 2 low slots for a RCU and a PDS (with my skills).

This is a pretty simple setup, get in, jam 'em up and hope you can take them down with 358 dps (again, with my skills).
Make sure you chose your fights wisely ;) avoid other recons if possible as their sensor strength makes them very tough to jam.
OH, carry all damage types of both faction and TII rage missiles.
edit: as you may have noticed, you're going to have to hope for good warp-ins, the scram is essential imo as the Rook is dog slow so you need to disable any chance of something MWDing away.

Heavy missiles aren't that bad of weapons. Plus it saves on power grid. 4 racials has better strength than multispecs. You can drop the lse for a web/scram, and change the disruptor to a scrambler, but I dunno if I would or not. Just somes ideas. using rigs to buff the signal strength saves on using some of your precious low spots.

I wouldn't solo in it. Without 4-5 midslots for racial ECM, you'll most likely leave target(s) unjammed eventually enough for them to put a serious hurt on you. Use a Drake if you want to solo, much cheaper w/ more damage and more tank. You'll find more often than not, the faster you can kill, the more successful your solo PvP career will be (as you can get off the gate, kill target before help/anybody else arrives or whatever else)
Fit for ECM, focus on that for your fit. Any other ships can add tackle + DPS, very few have ECM bonuses like the Rook does. *** Currently Playing: Trolls from Outer Space Current Equipment: VISAcard chain mail, +2 Amulet of Epic Whine, Self Banstick +2 WTB: +666 E-peen killboard stats |

Fly this and die in 1 volley if you miss a jam. Or if the other ship has more than 1 drone.

Better than previous fit, but I still wouldn't fly it. Rigs kind of counteract each other (penalty from jamming rig reduces bonus from CDFE).
OP: I've posted a couple of rook fits in a thread somewhere, that I've flown both solo and in small gangs, which don't rely on range and ecm as your only form of defense. You'll have to do a search for it though, cos I'm too lazy to find it for you.
The gist of it: mids - mwd, point/scram, 3jammers, 2x LSE or LSE+invul Lows - Fitting mod (PDU/RCU), 2x BCU/2x SDA/BCU+SDA Highs- HML or HAM (BTW, proby rook can use 4HAM + combat prober, does same damage as 5xHML)
Only problem is finding targets willing to engage you solo.

Both early fits are fail. Last post is correct. ----------------------------------------------- This is a line of text without any meaning. ----------------------------------------------- |

Fit 4 Hams, solves your grid problems meaning 3 BCS in lows so still good dps. Mids how you like but for solo and with recon 5, 3 multis generally works fine up to battlecruisers (minnie ones are great). Oh and look at all that spare cpu for an expanded probe launcher in the spare high... Your only risk is drone boats but unless it's a drone bc I would say just go for the hull first - bear in mind you can always just disengage if his drones are hurting you. (keep an eye on scanner for your target's friends)

Also, Dread Gurista Multi Specs add considerable Jam strength at Recon V, at less than 10mil each currently very worth it if you intend on solo'ing in this ship.
