Krulla	Posted - 2004.11.30 19:10:00 - [31] Originally by: mahhy Edited by: mahhy on 27/11/2004 17:34:01 Is an MWD/AB really a good idea? They don't provide enough push to get you going faster than missles far as I know (haven't had a chance to verify that) and you'll also never catch a frig flying one of these. No use going faster than missiles anymore. They will now lead you, hitting you regardless of speed if you orbit.

0seeker0	Posted - 2004.11.30 23:19:00 - [35] Quote: Just curious why you have 2x 75mm rails. I have a full 8x 125mm rails, which gives me 14km optimal range with iron charges. I have a named tech 1 afterburner in one of the med slots, a named tech 1 overdrive in one of the low slots, and a named tracking/damage modifier in another low slot. Still haven't figured out how to fill the empty slots, thought it looks like I'll be adding an armor repairer. I don't have cap or pg probs running all 8 turrets and my afterburner at the same time. Will the armor repairer really gulp that much juice? I have never used one before so I really don't know. Thats odd.... do you mean, that you have a 1mn ab in med slot? i have a 10mn ab, which is like 40pg on its own. And yes, thats why i have 2 as 75 rails, power issues. If it wernt for the sodding ammo, id use 75's all around, as the tracking is awesome and i wouldnt need to have the powercore. Ho hum, decisions decisions. San. Character "Widescreen" is a scammer; beware. Check my bio for a list of known scammers.

Alexi Borizkova	Posted - 2004.12.01 04:30:00 - [37] Originally by: Alexi Borizkova The Cormorant... because it's caldari. Or did you want an objective balanced analysis? Yeah, like the lack of missiles didn't tip that off... But It was released by the caldari and has that farked up butt ugly look that all our ships* have. I stil lthink they should have released it witha penalty to all fligth times of missiles, boost to rocket speed, and 5 launchers... but that's jsut me. *Barring the Merlin

Seto Mazzarotto	Posted - 2004.12.01 06:09:00 - [39] Actually, I think the Cormorant's beautiful. The front end looks like the hood of a sports car, and the lights on the bottom are a nice touch. For PvP I actually look to jamming equipment on the med slots. It's a brittle ship no matter WHAT you tank it with, and till CCP puts Destroyer-size equipment on the market it's not very good for speed, so put those meds to use the way they seem to have been meant to be. ----------- Fighting for the ideals of freespace, posthuman ethics, and rock & roll.

Cracken	Posted - 2004.12.01 09:16:00 - [41] Edited by: ***en on 01/12/2004 09:24:12 Hi's: 5x150mm's trust me on this these suckers hurt. Mids: 10mn ab a must the ship is so damned slow it's not funny cap recharger 2 Low's: whatever is needed too fit everything else, probably at least 2 mapcs. Unfortunately blaster setups on a destroyer are a bad idea the destroyer runs out of cap. and your left high and dry wondering what happened too your cap.

Nakir	Posted - 2004.12.01 10:56:00 - [43] I have fitted on my cormorant 7 x 125mm railgun 1 x standard launcher with defender 1 x 1MN MWD, medium SB, 2 cap recharger II 1 micaux powercore it¦s just the cheap version for a cheap ship, because it¦s cannon fodder.

Rails i think are for now definitely the way to go on the cormorant. Anyone else had any luck with a blaster setup?

Lilane	Posted - 2004.12.01 13:29:00 - [47] Actually, fitted on my Catalyst : 6x 75mm railgun, 2x Small nos 1x 10MN AB, 1x Web 1x small armor repairer, 2x Cap power relay The only problem is a cap issue, it's getting empy quite fast that why i put on 2 power relay instead of one + 400mm armor ( i first tried 400mm+MWD instead of relay+10MN AB) I dont think the Calatlyst is the best Destroyer, i think the thrasher is better. Still i can't pilot her :)

Aegis Osiris	Posted - 2004.12.01 16:37:00 - [57] You can fit an assault launcher on those as well, with an MWD (would have to look at it with 10MN AB); gives better ROF and larger magazine.
