Aurelius Valentius Imperial Academy Amarr Empire 318	Posted - 2013.01.03 16:30:00 - [1] - Quote Greetings, I am trying to figure out how you would fit this thing for 3x support situations: 1. Small Gang, HS - for Missions 2. Small Gang/Fleet any sec, Incursions 3. Small Gang WH sleepers I have been messing with this and messing with this, and can't seem to get it right... I am new to logi work, but getting there also, but not new to the game. Skills here for them's that need to know: EVEboard Page Look at all the Macks in local...impressive...very impressive...I see you have fashioned a new exhumer...much like you father's...your skills as a miner are now complete...indeed you are powerful as CCP Devs have foreseen. -á318 people are totally baffled.
Lee Mcgee The Fiction Factory Tribal Band 3	Posted - 2013.01.03 16:47:00 - [2] - Quote With the Guardian, it will be running with a partner or multiple partners. For capaacitor and to repair. You will be cap stable when you form 'Cap chains' with other guardians. I would recommend getting Logistics V. Also swopping the medium reps and arrays for Large. Then fitting it as a plate setup, also throw a propulsion on. I would recommend an afterburner to keep your sig down. I havnt flown much logistics myself, but currently training it to Level V.

I backed off the all logi for this job as I don't see the intensity of need like in a PvP situation... but I could be wrong, I also wanted some self rep ability and tank just in case I take some damage myself, especially if in a WH situation, I can just SS and self rep, rather than have to go back to station and take mass off the life of the WH.

Wacktopia Noir. Black Legion. 400	Posted - 2013.01.03 17:15:00 - [4] - Quote For solo armor logistics consider looking at the Oneiros. It might mean you need to train up Gallente Cruiser but the additional mid slots make cap stability easier. As has been mentioned, part of the Guardian's real strength is when it is working paired up with another to benefit from the cumulative cap transfer bonus. The bottom line is that now I have one of those annoying signatures.

Jacob Rider Rifterlings Damu'Khonde 16	Posted - 2013.01.03 19:04:00 - [6] - Quote #1: You will never be able to run incursions with only one logistics ship. The Vanguard sites will eat you alive. Anything lower than Vanguards can be soloed, and anything higher needs a bigger fleet. #2: If you're going to be a logi, be a logi -- no sense in making your logistics ship suck at logistics just to add crappy damage-dealing ability to it. My suggestion is to use an Oneiros. You're already skilled for it. You can even fit Tracking Links to make your buddies better at killing.

Logi is very good to get into Incursion fleets, and everyone in the fleet gets payout on site completion (else why would logies do Incursions if they didn't get anything from it). I don't have any experience as an armor logi in Incursions, though I enjoy flying in the shield fleets with my Basilisk. You should join some armor Incursion channel to get a better idea of it, and get a decent fit. The Ditanian Fleet is one of the large armor communities (might be misspelled). I only have a PvP Guardian fit so I can't help you with a PvE fit as I haven't used my Guardian there, and the PvP fit is not public.

Really. Unless you only need the power of 2 reppers or something, its not gonna work Quote: [Guardian, Guardian v1.0B] Medium Armor Repairer II Damage Control II Adaptive Nano Plating II Adaptive Nano Plating II 400mm Reinforced Steel Plates II 10MN Afterburner II Medium Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 800 Heavy Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Heavy Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Heavy Pulse Laser II, Scorch M Medium Energy Transfer Array II Large Remote Armor Repair System II Large Remote Armor Repair System II Medium Ancillary Current Router II Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II Light Combat II x5 holy hell my eyes. I suppose its not terrible for what you want it to do, however a 400mm plate is kind of worthless and you're fitting a t2 powergrid rig just to get slightly fast rep from your 2 reps and some ****** dps from your lasers. Unless your specifically facing neut-ing ships, the energy transfer array is also completely pointless. Here's my advice: If you're the only repper in a gang of dps ships, then just go for full rep/tank. Despite what we've said about guardians needing to be in pairs, you can tank a guardian and still get enough reps out to keep everyone happy with just your local regen. Lose the stupid lasers, you won't need a cap booster either. The DPS is negligible, and the extra tank will make you happy. If you only need a little bit of reps and more dps, then fit a utility battleship like an Apoc, use t1 rep drones. Dominix is king in this role. If you're doing wormholes and need serious repping and captransfering power, take a utility battleship buddy with you and go for a more standard guardian setup yourself. You feed the battleship cap with 1 transfer, he feeds it back to you with multiple transfers, and he also repairs you, while you repair everyone else. He can still use drones and leftover highslots for additional repping and dps, and since he's armor tanked with no need for cap recharge, the utility bs can fit a prop mod, target painters, or tracking boosters to make him not so useless. Again though, you're best off with an oneiros for serious self-sutained repping power. [url]https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=65340[/url]
Derath Ellecon Washburne Holdings Situation: Normal 1009	Posted - 2013.01.03 20:32:00 - [11] - Quote If you are serious about Logi, then logi 5 is pretty much a mandatory skill It's what makes a guardian cap stable with only one incoming cap transfer, and makes an oni stable without totally gimping the fit. For PVE (incursions) you don't need to do any damage to get the payout. For PVP if you want to ***** on the killmails, throw in some light damage drones. Don't bother wasting your highs with guns. Here is a good starter guideline for guardian incursion fits. I use the Oni fits on the site in incursions with great success. http://eve-survival.org/wikka.php?wakka=ArmorGuardian

If you are the only guardian in a wh fleet then you are doing it wrong. That being said you can bounce large cap x-fers off a battleship and stay afloat. Provided you don't wander off and he does not get jammed. Its not ideal by any means and should be avoided unless you are under serious cap pressure but its doable. From there you can fit a standard 4/2 guardian like so. If you plan to be in guardians a lot though training logi to 5 is a must for a multitude of reasons.

As for Aurelius Valentius, never feel shy about asking your guardian partner to show you their fit if you are not used to flying with them. There are a lot of terrible ways to fit a guardian out there(you showed us a few) and if you are paired up with one of them you will both likely get killed very quickly, followed shortly by your gang.

Hehe, well I don't fit them like this... I just ask about fits on the forums and then get info and do it correctly... PVP on the forums is harsh but it's cheap on ISK and KMs... so I would rather people "BLAP" my fit here with harsh language then IG... I have thick skin. Def learned alot in the last few days on fitting for ships I can fly but haven't, and will work with the fits and ideas on Buckingham for a bit to tweek my skills and all until I am confident I have a "win" fit, then I drop the ISK and fit one out, by then I have also learned enough about what I am doing and supposed to do to make it work - I guess I take the school learning approach to it, over the "into the fire" approach.

Join the Ditanian fleet channel and just watch. People post their fits looking for fleets all day. Not that they are all great but you start getting an idea of what is most common.

Some of those faction mods are a lot cheaper if you buy different faction/deadspace versions of it. For example Imperial Navy, True Sansha, Khanid Navy and Ammatar Navy all have the same stats for the same modules. Buying the Imperial Navy version might not be the cheapest alternative... As for deadspace, my PvP Guardian fit has some C-type mods on it that were butt cheap compared to faction, while giving better bonuses. Only type I'd stay clear of is officer mods, they are stupidly overpriced for no apparent bonus. Only a select few officer items are better than the deadspace versions. Of course if you buy from LP store you can get it for a better price but that's a whole other way of acquiring them.

Pinaculus Fweddit I Whip My Slaves Back and Forth 197	Posted - 2013.01.04 03:05:00 - [20] - Quote Guardians don't really work solo. It's a good thing because you need another Guardian or 2 to rep the enemy fleet tossing rounds at you when they figure out they can't out dps your fleet's reps. Another tip....don't bother with repair drones in PvP. It's tempting at first, but I find it more effective to use combat drones to kill some of the 20 ECM drones that will be on you the whole fight. Logi getting jammed at the wrong time is very bad. I know sometimes it's difficult to realize just how much you spend on incidental things each month or year, but seriously, EVE is very cheap entertainment compared to most things... If you are a smoker, smoke one less pack a week and pay for EVE, with money left over to pick up a cheap bundle of flowers for the EVE widow upstairs.
Gizan Hounds Of War WHY so Seri0Us 73	Posted - 2013.01.04 05:19:00 - [21] - Quote ^^ i always use damage drones to kill ECM drones attacking either other logi, or my FC so they can still lock.
Vilnius Zar Ordo Ardish 551	Posted - 2013.01.04 10:33:00 - [22] - Quote Lots of silly nonsense in this thread. There's several ways to set up a Guardian and it depends on use and scenario. AB or MWD, omni resists or specific (also depends on gang links) so lets not go into super specific fits, highly specialised ones or faction bling silliness. This is sortof what a basic guardian should look like; 4 large reppers, 1 large cap transfer to establish link with another guardian, an extra one to feed cap to other ships if needed (medium gives enough range for that). Prop mod, ECCM, DC, plate and resists. This requires logi 5 to work. Again, not saying this is the ultimate fit (not even close) but if you're looking to use a guardian for the first time then it's a good starting point to use and adapt for your own specific scenario.
