I need some tips. I don't quite understand how I lost this fight. Seems like I could barely hit him the whole time even with my web on him and eventually I just ran out of cap. He had a small nos on me and I had tried neuting him with a small neut but I think it hurt me more than him.
Eventually I stopped firing my guns and tried to let my cap build a little so I could run the web and my guns at the same time for maximum effect but still I just barely scratched him. I kept approaching and then keeping at distance to minimize angular velocity but still no dice.
From looking at one of his recent losses it appears he runs an ancillary shield booster which would make sense from what I saw during the fight but I really don't think that was the main problem. Should I try tracking rigs? Was that just a fight I shouldn't have taken? |

Was just looking over my fit. Apparently I had a med neut equipped and not a small. Was thinking I was flying another fit I had worked up. So I guess I neuted myself out trying in vain to drain his cap. But if your opponent has a nos should you not run the neut? Maybe I should equip ecm drones? |

I love ecm drones, but I would think Hobs on a frigate would be a better choice.
I dunno dude. I think you just lost to a good pilot.
The reason for the small repper is to patch up scratches between plexes. I got the idea from Prometheus as shown in his fit here.

Replacing it with another resistance plate wouldn't have helped in that fight. It wasn't a case of not having enough HP. It was a very long fight and I basically died the death of a thousand cuts.
I think part of the problem is I only have Amarr Cruiser 4 and until I raise that to 5 along with a couple of other skills I cannot get cap stable even with just my guns on. I can fix that problem but my inability to track him is what ultimately killed me and what I don't know how to fix. |

Yeah I thought about that. He was most likely dual prop fit too. I figured I needed to brawl because I have a scram fitted. Maybe I should have risked letting him get away. What about an AB fit for plex brawling like I'm doing? Omens just seem so vulnerable if they can't dictate range. |

So instead of manually piloting away and toward him I should just align to something, apply my neut and wait until his cap gives out and gives me a chance to pulse the MWD and blast him? I'm still tempted to give the AB fit a chance seeing how 99% of my fights are consensual and the omen is still slower than just about everything even with a MWD.
I have decided not to try to solo in this ship until I have Amarr Cruiser V, Propulsion Jamming V, and Fuel Conservation / Afterburner V if I go with an AB fit. Almost 13 mil SP and still in a frigate :( |

Navy omen has 5 light ecm drones, while they can be killed fast by a frig, one jam and you are able to get some range. Now depending on what the frig is thats on you, dps drones might be better, but at the very least its gunna by time and divert attention.
Yes, I was already considering ECM drones. Thanks for all the advice. |
