Hello everyone :)
Currently I am flying a rifter equiped with : 1 280mm light arty 1 1 280mm Howitzer 1 Standard Missile Launcer with whatever good damage light missile is available
my tactics are to orbit the enemy I am fighting at 7500 and just fire away , select the next rat orbit at 7500 and rinse and repeat.
Is this the correct way to be doing this? or should I be doing something different?
thanks

Sounds good! But make sure your orbit range is close to your ships optimal with the appropriate ammo. Right click on the equipped turret and check it out.

You should fit the same size guns, so either 2 250s or 2 280s. This will help you optimize your damage. 250s and 280s have different optimal ranges, so it's easier to be at it if you have the same guns. If you use 2 250s, you'll also have more PG and CPU for other equipment, possibly a 3rd 250. 250s also have better tracking, which helps a lot.

Edited by: Winter ICE on 06/05/2005 21:49:24 F'nog is right: ---Turret Hints--- - two the same guns with same optimal range improves effectivity. Also use different kinds of ammo, you 3 turretslots and 2 missile bays, thats 4 in total leaving 1 slot undecided. - Best for porjectile ammo is one with EMP to get down shields and one with nuclear to quickly bring down armor and hull - also notice that autoguns are short ranged and Art guns very long, you need to chose
--Missile Hints-- - your missiles have a range of speed x flight time = range, light missiles have a range of about 24 km which maybe your longest tange weapon - use sabretooth for shields and buy a second laucher with piranja missiles which do explosive
---other hints--- the strongest point of Minmatar vessles is most definitly their speed, equip an 1MN afterburner and a shiels booster of any kind
I also have a alternative tactic for you, works better on drones: 1) approach enemies(in this case drones)and keep doing this until they come within 24km 2)then make a 90 degrees corner to left or right and fire a distraction shot(best is art even when it misses) 3)this special way of flying will give them the time to come in range but you still move away from them 4)and the closer they come the faster you get out of range 5) when they go out of range again, repeat tactic
- when you try YOUR tactic at drones they'll orbit you and then they will outspeed you guns
PS: i had a drone, that was fast enough to outspeed my guns and missiles, luckily i had my own drones :)
hope you can use the info..
