Been pondering if a scorpion would do. Lots of hardners and some tech 2 pdu in the lows. Siege and maybe some guns or nosf + drones.
But is the damage output enough? Anyone tried. -------------------------

Originally by: Drachir I tried a serpentis deadspace mission on sisi a couple of weeks ago with 4 siege and cruise but it took far too long. Damage output simply wasn't high enough. And this is with cruise missiles 5.
Although, you might have more luck with torps, but I haven't tried them.
That is what I was thinking would be the problem. The damage it can dish out would be too small. Torpedos might work better tough. Cruise for frigates/cruisers and torpedos for the battleships.
As a tank the scorpion should be awesome. -------------------------

EDIT: That's Caldari missions btw.
I went out and bought a Raven. On my first mission I had to kill a Core Commodore. Too bad I only had Wraths with me. He took damn ages. I think you can do this in a Scorpoion but you need high skills and switching between torpedos and cruiser depending on the target.
If my Raven blows up I'll reinvest in a Scorpion and give that a go. -------------------------

No hardners Jim?
I bet 4x Cap Recharger 2 + PDU 2 in low allow you to tank for quite a bit, but with low reistance does it not hurt badly? -------------------------

yeah it hurts when they hit but i usually rely on my mate to tank in his scorp, this tank does last a while and lets me fit 6 siege.
I was actually thinking a pdu II, tank setup might be better and i will probibly ditch the wcs as ive never needed them frigs are the first to get hit with a volly of cruise. Either that or keep this and fit two ballistics instead of the wcs.
Right, makes more sense now
I solo atm so no wingman for me to tank the damage while I dish out the damage. -------------------------
