Anyone have a good cheap roaming pvp ..say for example someone that just joined RvB?

A simple, fast Thorax with range is a good start. Be fast and snipe. Otherwise will you have too many other players on top of you and take you for easy prey, especially in RvB with all them frigates and rookie ships.

If you rather want to sit in the centre then this Vexor with 30k eHP, a high rep rate and strong neuts will work as a drone fortress. It just needs a lot of frigate pilots who only see the ship as the threat and not its drones...

OH no!

Dual tanking vexor advice given........must go and remove my eyes so I don't see this abomination ever again!

Whithound stop. Just stop.

The Vexor and drone boats in general are actually the only ships I know of that can pull this off. Otherwise are you right and dual tanking is pointless.

But do the numbers. With a whooping 30k eHP and 220 eHP/s rep rate on shields can it take quite a beating and has a chance to reload the ASB. The tank and the neuts should confuse enough RvB noobs to farm plenty of frigate kills with this. The drones do up to 465 DPS.

TBH I would suggest swapping that for a web if you are going against frigs as you'll need it for the hammerheads and ogres to even catch your target before they try to apply damage. I've solo'd neut,shield vexors (with a bragged about 600+dps output according to the pilot) in an AB'ing slasher before. This will die horribly to the frig blob that occurs in RvB. and if those frigs are kitey then it has no ability what so ever to harm them.

No. It does not have an MWD, but an AB and is not meant to catch anything. It is a bait if you so will. The neuts will do fine and the web will not save it from dieing to blobs either.

Do not worry too much about it when you do not like this Vexor. You are not required to like it. It is meant as an alternative to the Thorax fitting with MWD and rails. It is not just another kiter/sniper or a different ship, but this Vexor is an alternative tactic altogether. Some may find it more appealing than sniper/kiters for having fun.

As already pointed out the shield tank doesn't work becasue it has no buffer and can be alpha'd through pretty easily.

Confirming this is a good fit. I personally usually go all-in on the tank and fit reinforced bulkheads instead of the DDAs and a hull repairer instead of the AB.

Thorax you said? Well let me be of assistance.

Highs:
Heavy Electron Blaster II (x5)

Mids:

1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I

Rigs:
Medium Ancillary Current Router I
Medium Trimark Armour Pump I (x2)

Drones:
Valkyrie II (x5)

Pretty much the same fit as the one above me, but I prefer Valks to Hammers because they can track webbed frigates very well. This fit is more suited to a small gang scenario where you have a few logistics with you, but it can work solo. I just don't advise it due to the lack of speed on armour boats.

Thorax: Shield Brawler

Highs:
Heavy Ion Blaster II (x5)

Mids:
Experimental 10mn Microwarpdrive I
Faint Epsilon Warp Scrambler I

Power Diagnostic System II

Rigs:
Medium Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Medium Core Defense Field Extender I (x2)

Drones;
Warrior II (x10)

This fit is great for taking on other cruisers, as it can oftentimes overwhelm them with its DPS. Pushes 500 from guns alone with good skills and about 80 from drones. It is very weak against frigates due to the lack of web, so be cautious and don't let them get under your guns.

Drones:
On this fit drones are really personal preference. I run Valks to deal with both frigs and cruisers, but warriors/hobs/Hammers will also work.

This fit excels at seperatiing gangs and quickly blapping tackle off the field, then holding down the larger targets while your guns tear them to shreds. With null you can hit out to around 20km, and with Antimatter out to 12km. Your tank is very light at a paper 14k EHP, but if you pay your cards right you can evade most damage from frigs and larger than cruiser targets.

I know I felt guilty posting then with the ACR in the fitting. And no, the ACR is needed on the armour fit unless you have AWU5 or geno implants.

Same here, guilty as charged. So I have revised my Sniper/Kiter Thorax to this:

Warrior II x5
Acolyte TD-300 x5

The engagement range is now 17km but it should not have a problem to hold its position, because it flies with up to 2407 m/s (3433 m/s overheated). This is faster than an unpimped Stabber. It has got 18.5k eHP and deals up to 357 DPS together with the 5x Warrior IIs. It is not going to kill a lot, especially well tanked ships that are able to shoot back will drive it off. It is however cheap (all items but the railguns cost less than a million per piece) and it is fast enough to stay outside web and scram range. It is more PG and cap friendly than the previous one I have posted and thereby more suitable for low-SP pilots (so I hope). PYFA sets its price at 27.4m ISKs (ship + fitting).

Cap for 1:42 with max skills and everything running. Not enough for kiting imo. Works maybe in 1v1 fights but when you try to kite a small gang (constant MWDing) you'll need a cap booster.
