Sevra Argentkin Vestigium Corpus 1	Posted - 2013.02.05 21:00:00 - [1] - Quote Hello there good folks. I was tinkering in EFT for a good fit for those T1 shield logistics cruisers and came up with the following: Quote: [Osprey, New Setup 1] Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Diagnostic System I Damage Control II 10MN Afterburner II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Large Shield Extender II Conjunctive Gravimetric ECCM Scanning Array I Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium 'Regard' Power Projector Medium 'Regard' Power Projector Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I Medium Core Defense Field Extender I Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I Medium Shield Maintenance Bot II x2 Quote: [Scythe, New Setup 1] Internal Force Field Array I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I 10MN Afterburner II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Large F-S9 Regolith Shield Induction Conjunctive Ladar ECCM Scanning Array I Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I Medium Processor Overclocking Unit I Medium Shield Maintenance Bot II x4 Light Shield Maintenance Bot II x1 --- As you can see, near identical fits in terms of tank, ECCM and Shield Transporters. Scythe's got less buffer (and minimal less resists due to m4 DCU) but is faster and even got a bit more rep due to drone bonus. One could forgo a bit of repping power in order to make its tank pretty much equal, yes, by switching to less CPU intensive m4 Shield Transporters. But the main advantage is, imo, it's not dependant on a cap buddy as it is stable. So, my question is: Why would anyone use an Osprey over a Scythe if they got the choice? Or rather..: What am I missing? Regards
Mizhir Red Federation RvB - RED Federation 3647	Posted - 2013.02.05 22:40:00 - [2] - Quote With decent skills you can easily run the 4/1 layout on an opsprey [Osprey, RR 4/1 T2] Damage Control II Surrogate Gravimetric Reserve Array I Co-Processor II 10MN Afterburner II Large Shield Extender II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Upgraded EM Ward Amplifier I Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium Shield Transporter II Medium 'Regard' Power Projector Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I Medium Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I Medium Anti-Kinetic Screen Reinforcer I So it can get a higher repping power. (But with drones it is pretty close for them both). But both ships are pretty good. The major advantage of the scythe is that it can work on its own. So if other logis gets jammed / killed you can still keep repping. Also they are a bit easier to fly since you dont have to manage cap chain. The advantage of the osprey and the capchain is the neut resistance. Its much harder to neut out a solid cap chain. However the chain can be broken if ships gets destroyed or jammed so the pilots must be able to deal with it. My own opinion is that if you have 1-2 logis, the scythe is best while 3 or more the ospreys are best. Because with a larger chain you can still keep it running even with some ships down. If you are only 2 ospreys its easier to counter them by just taking 1 of them out by jamming or killing it. But aside from this, there are the stat differences. The scythe is slightly faster with lower sig while the opsrey have a bigger tank. The Logi Pilot we need... Not the Logi Pilot we deserve

As an auguror pilot i find the 3/2 setup is very very good wehn you hare facing a fleet of Neeeuuuterss Want some pvp help? Like to fly small and fast frigates? Then join the in game channel Tenori_Tigers!

But it is all about managing the cycles. The Logi Pilot we need... Not the Logi Pilot we deserve
Danny John-Peter New Eden Renegades Ninja Unicorns with Huge Horns 185	Posted - 2013.02.06 09:34:00 - [5] - Quote AB Scythe > Doin it wrong. In an AB role the Osprey is superior, there is no doubt however; [Scythe, MWD] Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Beta Reactor Control: Capacitor Power Relay I Damage Control II Large F-S9 Regolith Shield Induction Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Conjunctive Ladar ECCM Scanning Array I Experimental 10MN Microwarpdrive I Medium S95a Partial Shield Transporter Medium S95a Partial Shield Transporter Medium S95a Partial Shield Transporter Medium Core Defense Field Extender I Medium Core Defense Field Extender I Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I For a kiting role, a ship that goes 3K/s on heat before links is incredible useful. The same argument can be made Basi/Scimi, the Basi reps more and is tankier, but the Scimi goes like the clappers. Its different roles for different ships.
Sevra Argentkin Vestigium Corpus 1	Posted - 2013.02.06 10:20:00 - [6] - Quote Ah! Thanks for all the answers, that 'neut resistance' and possible switching to a 4/1 layout is totally making sense. I'll consider that Scythe MWD fit as well, as it's sure rather built for skirmishes, yes! Cheers

Since this fit is aimed at having mutliple RR you can pick out frigates that go for you. Resist: EM 76% Thermic 81% Kinetic 78% Explosive 77%. 7067 Shield. And for a auguror fit: [Auguror, RR 4/1 T2] Internal Force Field Array I Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II Armor Explosive Hardener II 800MM Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Remote Sensor Booster II Remote Sensor Booster II Remote Sensor Booster II Medium Remote Armor Repair System II Medium Remote Armor Repair System II Medium Remote Armor Repair System II Medium 'Solace' Remote Bulwark Reconstruction Medium 'Regard' Power Projector Medium Anti-Thermic Pump I Medium Anti-Kinetic Pump I Medium Anti-Kinetic Pump I 4x Warrior II 26k EHP, if all V. it can tank 1094 DPS if repaired by same fit, whilst being cap stable at 81%. it can do 64 DPS. Since this fit is aimed at having mutliple RR you can pick out frigates that go for you. Resist: EM 75% Thermic 74% Kinetic 74% Explosive 79%. 4688 Armor. And this is why armor tanking is sexier than shield tanking in some ways. OH HAI VESTIGIUM.
