Hello all
I have been using a drake since i could fly it, but i am looking to expand in to level 4 missions, and i have picked the ship i like but the fitting i have on it right now is not as good as i like and i was wondering about these things.
1 what is the best way to go with a mega shield tank or a armor tank
2 what range of guns should i put it it
3 should i have torps or cruise missiles on it
4 just general fits that would work well for a level 4 mission
but i have done all my skills for missiles and drake fittings so what skills do i need to look at for the mega fitting all tech 2 rigs guns and all and what is the best named gear

Quote:1 what is the best way to go with a mega shield tank or a armor tank Armor, you don't really have the mid slots for a shield tank. Quote:2 what range of guns should i put it it Rails. The biggest you can fit. Quote:3 should i have torps or cruise missiles on it Neither. You should have guns on it. Quote:4 just general fits that would work well for a level 4 mission A general idea: Low slots: Large Armor Repper, as many Magstabs as you can and as few mission-specific armor hardeners as you can get away with. Mid slots: Heavy cap booster, afterburner, tracking computers. High slots: Prototype 425mm railguns, you won't have the skills for T2 for a long, long while. Rigs: Probably Auxiliary Nano Pumps, you won't have the grid for gunnery rigs (and they'll be stacking penalized anyway). overclocking unit if you need one. Drones: I like 4 heavies + 5 lights on 125 bandwidth ships. Be aware that the Mega isn't generally considered a very good missioning ship.
Ok i do understand that
and when i type on forums i tend to type like i talk so i end up with out a lot of the grammer stuff and sorry for that and thank you for the help.
and about the missles i have found that useing missles and drones when the hostles are too close to hit withe guns.

What exactly sold you on the megathron? I'm guessing that sweet sexy silhouette?
And please, don't "type like you talk". Put some tiny bit of thought and effort into your written communication, and you'll find that people start treating you with more courtesy.
Well I just like the platform it's self, but the ship is kinda sexy in a looks kinda way. The reason I use missles is becasue they can take up the slack where the guns can not reach.
In reguards to the way i type i am working on that part, because i never really put any mind in to forums, and or any other means where players can troll for no reason. I feel that no matter how good i type there are still people out there that going to pick at something, where in I just do not care. But what you say is understandable and i will work on it.
Just ask, what is the best level 4 ship, fits, and weapons. i found a level 4 agent today, and I would like to make the move here soon.

I'll be the first to admit there are quite a few trolls in these forums. It didn't help that you opened yourself up it by asking what kind of missiles to use for a gun boat. I'm just curious but why not the Raven. That is a missile boat.
I know, but i have always had a missile back up for my ships. I never been able to get the guns just right.

Well I would recommend to have your gunnery support skills to at least 4. As long as you have that and decent drone skills to deal with frigates you'll do fine.
Ok will work on that, and can you throw a good ship and fit for a incursion runner too.
Thank you for all the help, and hope to see you all in game.

why the freckle aren't you just upgrading to a raven, really good lvl 4 mission ship, you probarbly already have the missile skills.
Looking at your bio i can see you're quite new(so am i) just go for one race, one thing for starters.
1: get in a drake with somewhat good support skills=2-3 months
2: Get in a raven, work on rest of support skills 4-5 months.
If you jump around too much you'll end up only being able to fly most ships at 20-30% of their proper value as in, lower dmg/tank than if you sticked to one.
Well i have been a drake pilot for most of the time, I feel i need to get out the missile boats and try some gun ships.
But i will work on the better mega's but i mgiht go the next step

[quote=Roime]Terrible thread with terrible fits.

Well i guess you can not keep the cage locked all the time, and the haters and ass hats just look for crap to talk even when someone is trying to get real help.

Well I have been playing since 2008, but i have focused my skills for fitting a good drake, and the mining side with a touch of market and some planet side skills, but i have cross trained all 4 races up to battle ship and i can fly tech 2 freigs and cruisers too.
but about the cap, that is not a real issue, but the issue is i am not versed in the boom stick side of eve. so I am trying to learn and i have a ok fit i guess. Thank you all for your help, and for the trolls they did not bother me this time.
