Hey.
Must have read all the sticky's on setups for my favourite cruiser, just wanted a few points clarified by pilots flying longer than I.
From what I've read there appear to be two general setup types.
Long range:
High: A mix of 650/720mm artys and launchers, mainly heavy
Mid: Shield boosting and cap rechargers, maybe tracking comp
Low: gyro and tracking mods
Short range:
High: 425mm autocannons, RL's
Mid: 10mn MWD, webby, cap mod
Low: As much armour tanking as CPU/PwrGrid allows
Does this seem about right? Also the long range setup seems to favour npc/missions and the short range PvP?
So many damn ways to set tis thing up

I have my Rupture setup like this:
4*720, 2 Heavy Launcher.
Med Shield Booster, 2 Hardeners of choice.
What ever is needed to fit the above with as much damage mods as possible...
Works fine in PvE.

i use a mixture of close/medium range weaponary on my Ruppie for missions. it gets the job done effectively with the use of the combined small and medium turrets.
Highs;
2xHeavy launcher
2xT2 280 Howies
2xT2 720 Howies
Mediums;
2x Named Cap rechargers
1x Webby
Lows;
1x T2 Medium Armour repairer
2x CPR
1x T2 Tracking comp
1x WCS (if needed)

i have not flown rupture for LONG time, this setup was designed before deadspace came into the game. it worked very nice though.
4 720s (with nuclear/proton)
- range around 40k+ with mediocre skills
2 light or rocket launchers for antifrigate and antimissle defence.
---------------------
MWD/Medium Shield Boost/Webber/cap recharger
---------------------
things to make this all fit.
4 720 used on a rupture with good pilot are more then enough to kill any level 3 mission rat.
MWD will allow you to outrun 99.9% ships including NPC tacklers (by the time they will reach you they will be dead).
Webber is there in case if you make a mistake and let them catch you, then missles and drones should take care of them once they are webbed.
PS. ship tanks very weak but at range you fight it will be more then enough. use MWD in bursts to keep cap FROM running low, couple bursts will take you to 1.5k/s speed and will move you far from enemy, good fallout of 720s can compensate for distance changes and keep damage pretty good. very rarely i close in with short range amo on ships that I can't get through armor tank once I took out their helpers.

Disclaimer: I am relatively new to Rupture, less then 2 weeks on it. I do missions and not do PVP, would be crazy with my current skills.
My gear is as follows:
High: 2 named 6xx, 1 named 7xx, 3 named heavy launchers
Med: 2 Shield Hardener(depending on the rat I will be fighting), 1 Med. Shield Extender
Low: 1 Med. Repairer, Ballistic computer, Tracking enchancer, diagnostic, power booster.
Missiles take out small stuff fast when they get close, cause I cant hit small ships with those guns if they are closer then 2k. Handy for those drone/ship mix type of missions in deadspace.
Dont forget your drone skills!

Why are you using weapons with different ranges? Aren't you gimping your setup by doing that? Also, missles on long range ruppy suck in my opinion. too long to get to target. this is why in my setup they are used to take care of frigates and 4 long range turrets used.
PS. looking that you are using tech 2 guns, i am sure you have quite a bit of minmatar flight time, i am not doubting that you can kick some serios ass, just curious why you made those choices.

Yea pain.. it was painful to see piloting be an actual skill in this game i know 
I miss dual MWD everything tbh, those that fitted it on ravens normally couldnt fly them correctly and died, and when i was flying dual mwd cruisers... they were usefull  good times.

Although i haven't NPCed in a rupture for a long time, i would suggest:
4x720, 2 heavies, or maybe assaults if out of cpu.
Target painter, afterburner to keep range, carp recharger
1rcu, medium tech 2 repairer, 2 hardeners for the expected npc, cpr

yeah, dual mwd on ruppy was great. Even MWD+AB was pretty good, made it move like a frigate. I do not know why they removed them.

Maybe because everyone and his aunt in CA flew just dual MWD Ruptures ?
Fun ship to fly though...

If i rember right you need more than 1 RCU to use this set up.

Nice Idea
The Rupture can use so Many different setups with its nice layout configuration.
Hell it is still one of the Fastest Cruisers in the game if setup right.
Hows Requiem treating you these days?

My 2nd. Acc. lost a Raptor to a Rupture and a Zealot today....
I really didn't expected a Rupture as a "tackler" with MWD/Scrambler/Nos, so this "think outside the box" works indeed very well with the Rupi.
btw.:
It was somebody from .RIP. and it was an easy kill for them...
