So i use the typical apoc setup
6 pulse, 2 siege 4 rechargers 2 reps, 2 harnders and 3 relays
I canŠt hit jack. I use crystals to get optimal range and still have alot of trouble hitting npc battleships. My skills arent so bad...motion prediction lv4 and trajectory analysis lv1. Whenever i head straight for a big ship to try and improve tracking i get owned...Any suggestions? I especially need help with lv4 missions!

Turn on transversal velocity on your scanner, watch the battleship you're trying to kill and match it's direction(do not go straight at it), try and get that number as low as possible. There isn't an npc battleship in the game I can't kill with megapulse and no web (as long as i'm not webbed myself). That includes close range orbiting angels etc etc.

It takes some time to eat through a BS, they tend to tank well and you have to be able to do the same. I can say that using only 2 hardeners is hardly the typical apoc setup. I never use less than three, and often use 4 named ones (cpu can be a bugger otherwise). That way I CAN head straight for the BS.
For Amarr NPCs use 2 thermal, 1 or two EM. FOr Caldari, 2 or even 3 kinetic, 1 thermal. For Gallente, I can't say I have great experience, but 2 heat and 2 kinetic. Minmatar I usually use a Raven on, but for an armor tank you're really going to need a lot of hardeners, I'm guessing 2 exp, 1 thermal and 1 kinetic, but perhaps others have better advice there.
Oh, and since you're using seiges, make sure you're packing the kind of damage-type cruises and torps that your NPC type is most vulnerable to. Check here: for data on what type of damage they do, and what their shield and armor resistances are.

Good day. My RL name is Dr. Goosem of the Fairy Tale Crime Lab (CSI:FT). I have ascertained that someone did hit Jack, causing him to fall down the hill, and suffer a cranial fracture (broken crown).
I initially suspected Jill, whose 'tumble' resulted in very minor, superficial injuries. However, one of my agents found a greatly oversized thumbprint on the well at the top of the hill, leading me to suspect one of the many giants that Jack killed in his previous career as a bounty hunter. Jack got a taste for killing giants at a young age, at the culmination of an incident involving a beanstalk.
It seems that Jack's days as a giant killer have come back to haunt him, proving once and for all that you can hit Jack.

Ah Ha! so that is what happened! I always thought that Jack had passed out from to much blood rushing out of his head to his beanstalk as Jill attempted to climb on top of it.

Edited by: Minyon on 25/03/2005 01:03:34 i Dont know how you could be missing battleships when i can kill crusers and frigates with megapulses
But your geting owned because you only have 2 hardners on put 3 or 4 on and you should tank much better
