Don't rule out the merlin and tristan. Can be effective when setup right.

Incursus is in my opinion a second rate fighter frigate. Fine if you don't have the money or the skills but if your Gallente and you want to use your own ships (either from lack of skills at others or just for loyalty factors) then use a Tristan.
Tristan is more shield, more armor, more cargo space, more slots (including a missle slot which should not go to waste). The only thing the Incursus does better is speed. But with an Afterburner the differene is not very important. Get a Tristan and get a couple of hobgoblin drones and you will be in pretty good shape against most other frigates.

Edit: You should also be using a standard missle launcher (forget rockets) stacked with your choice of missles (bloodclaw seems to be the favorite).
How dare you bash my incursus, fit 3 light neutron's, an MWD, web, cap recharger (No need for a scram in a frigtourny, MAPC and 2x cap relay's and You've got yourself a blasteranis imitater. -------------------------------------------

You want neither...for starters you need missile skills 
After that you can go rockets. I would suggest training all the missile skills you can to lvl 1. This will increase your dmg by quite a bit.

Edited by: Agana on 01/10/2005 22:58:09 Edited by: Agana on 01/10/2005 22:57:43 Heh a lot of people don't seem to like my setup. Under my setup of lightmissles I'm assuming your far away before you need to start shooting. With rockets my understanding is that without skills your shooting at 5km. With light missles I can start shooting reliably at 17km. Which means without skills I can get off two missles of 75hp before the first rocket of 50hp can be fired. This throws off the DPS calculations quite a bit. Edit: especially considering that frigate fights tend to be pretty quick, not allowing for damage to be made up by the faster firing of the rocket launcher.
I'm also using blasters so I need to by within 1500m to get the full effect though I can start hitting at 3000m. Still thats a lot of running, even with an AB, and the longer range light missles has proven very effective for me. Combined with a couple of drones and by the time I start firing on them their shields are gone and their armor 1/3 to 1/2 gone. If I were starting the whole fight up close (less then10km) I'd have a different opinion.

succubus: 2 light pulses, 2 rocket launchers AB, Cap recharger, and Webber cap relay, small armor repair, and 2 hardeners of choice
Murders every frigate that's stupid enough to get withn 10 km =)

an MAPC triple neutron incursus will deal more damage than any other frig. But in a 1v1, you'll never get that close, because as soon as the first web hits, it's all over. Might work in a free for all, where it's difficult for everyone to keep an eye on ranges. ^^
You can go long range, yeah, but it's outmatched by the Kestel, Rifter, and Tristan for this purpose.

My bet would be the Kessie with Standard Malkuth/Arbalest launchers loaded with Bloodclaw Light missiles, Dual Webb and 7.5scram. Then Plate and S-Rep, not much can kill it in time..

can only give you my personal preference, and id go with the rifter everytime, but like has been said a few times, go with whatever you have the best skills for, most frigs can beat each other on loadouts alone, frig tourney`s are great fun and usually the most bizaar setup wins the day ---------------------------------------------

in my ecperience a missile kessie is alot better than a rocket kessie for frigs... i wtf pwn missile kessies np, they need to be close, i need to be close, my fav frig is a punisher, fitting are 3 small pulse lasers(named are good or t2) and a small named nos, mids an ab(to get close) and a web(to keep THEM close) and 2 t2 small armor reps and 2 cap relays, infinite cap 4tw!

Edited by: Dorah Hawkwing on 02/10/2005 02:59:01 It is very hard to say.. The Solaris VII figate duels have wielded a lot of surprises in who won against whom.
Allmost all combat frigates have seen use, and seen surprise results. Setup matters as much as skill... For myself, I'll try an executioner again...
if I take a punisher set up along simlar lines, things might get really ugly ;)

my favorite setup for frig tourneys.
Punisher with
3x280mm 2xWebs (atleast X5s) 1xsmall armor rep, 1x400mm plate 2xMAPC
can run the small armor rep almost solid, and can deal out alot more damage than any other of the tanked frigs you'll go up against. only thing that will give it issues is a fast long range frig (rifter) but I doubt it will be able to out tank your guns even with the tracking issues. that and ew can be a ***** but thats rarely aloud

Wow. What a terrible setup. Why would you possibly use arties on that? A rocket kessie would absolutely *****you, so would a plated autorifter.

neither would get any closer to me than 9k both of which would be dead since they are outside there attack range (unless i'm wrong it takes pretty uber skills to get a rocket kessie out to 10k now). and the reason for artys is to save cap to tank whatever damage I do take from long range setups

Rocket Kessie 4TW.
Only trouble I've ever had is speed. Going against an incursus with an MWD. I fitted EW rather than a web, and unlike the punisher previous (which died after about 2 salvos of rockets), it didnt jam on the first attempt and my cap died. :(
If flying a rocket kessie, I'd fit 1 Tech 2 small shield booster, a 100mm Crystal Carbonide thingy armour plate, and 4 rocket launchers. Combine either a nano, or an overdrive in the lows as well, and a tech II afterburner as well (dont go mwd as your cap will die in about 4 seconds) oh and the web. Or lose the afterburner and fit dual webs.
Rocket kessies are lethal.
