I set mine up just like a Raven , I even have set it up so it LOOKS like a Raven , oh wait, thats right, it is a Raven because Raven > All 
So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.

Anyone use large autocannons on their Typhoon? I am still looking for a good setup for missions.

Wait for the original poster to get see out his 2-weeek ban from the forums and you'll understand that not all level 4 missions were possible. Just the easier ones.
So far I've managed to do all my lvl4s in a Dom or Ishtar... but I'm not exactly a dedicated agent runner and by no means have done all of them. Did an extravaganza mission in my Ishtar yesterday, no real problems (though it got very busy at times :) except that it took 4,5 hours :/
While there may be lvl4s that are not soloable, so far I haven't run into them (using Dom/Ishtar that is). Things could change after the patch, of course.

So Autocannons or Howitzers on this beast? I see most of you are using howitzers but with the range bonus for the BS skill would autocannons kind of equal out?

/me at Nikolai A 4 mill character with a Mega, Dominix AND a 'phoon? Anybody else thinking the lvl4 mission rewards nerfing was long overdue?

If it weren't for the drones, which ship would be the better, Typhoon or Dominix?

Edited by: Kashre on 05/07/2005 03:53:18 Its been a long time since I used a phoon for level 4 missions, but when I did I actually had a working siege + t1 1400 setup. I think it had 2 or 3 PDU 2 on it, but that still left 4 slots for an armor tank... one L acomodation and 1 thermal hardeners is enough to do L4 missions for khanid that are 80% against blood raiders or sanshas. If I had Angels Extravaganza Id buff the tank up and downgrade to a 4 siege/ 4 720 II setup.
For a while I even had a working mega-pulse/siege setup.
I would never use autocannons for PvE though... the range is not flexible enough for me, and the logistics of maintaining ammo is obnoxious. +++

Edited by: Kalil d''Maelstromo on 18/07/2005 12:16:08 Picking up my Typhoon today hopefully so thanks for the helpful posts.
Quick question....
Am I right in assuming that by 'Large Accomodation' in the low slots people mean RCU's PDU's so that the ship can 'Accomodate' whatever PG heavy weapon's and mods are to be fitted? The problem with this is the 'Large' part....as RCU and PDU's ddont come in sizes right?
Cheers

'Large Accomodation' refers to the best(?) large named armour repairer in the game

Don't forget missile changes will have limited the usefulness of the fittings posted in feb.

Use Megapulses for a much better Damage Per second, Plus its funny in PvP, when People see missiles pouring out of a Projectile based Battleship, Sounds idiotic, but it works!
Didn't try it but Typhoon doesn't have Amarr's ship capacitor, how could this be interesting?
Long long ago, before they fixed projectiles I acutally used a megapulse/cruise launcher setup on a phoon to hunt Blood Raiders. It works pretty well... yes, the base cap sucks beans... but you dont need ANY RCU to fit 4x megapulse and 4x cruise launchers (iirc), and 4 cap charger II with 3 cap relays is enough recharge for someone with good skills and the more efficient crystals to run 4 lasers, 2 L armor reps and 2 hardeners forever. +++

The range bonus is only for optimal, meaning you get basically nothing out of it since the opt on autocannons is pathetic to start. Also why you should never use anything but phased plasma, emp or fusion in an autocannon. Range bonuses dont do you any good.
I would first say get a tempest. But aside from that, Id say that IF I were to set a phoon up for level 4 missions, Id set it up with 4x 1400 (or maybe 1200 t2) and 4 cruise launchers and just rely on drones for frig defense.
The thing with using autocannons on l4 missions is I doubt that a phoon could mount any kind of real firepower and still be able to tank the giant swarms of cruisers and BS you'd have to wade into in order to get your guns in rage... with long range guns you can hold your fire until you get out to 30-60km and *then* agress a group of npcs, flying directly away from them. With fast minmatar ships you have time to kill off the cruisers before they get close enough to mob you, and since they're flying straight up your pipe you keep the transversal low.
Also, autocannons are a logistical nightmare. Its hard enough to keep enough ammo on hand for artillery. +++
