Heh, not a very constructive thread really ;p. A couple of things that I noticed in the thread, being the pedantic git that I am.
"Mega can fit 5 heavy drones. Another 450 dps."
5 drones is only 450 dps on a domi/ishtar (max skilled ogre IIs are 475.2). 5 max skilled ogre IIs on a mega is 316.8 dps (personally I only use 4 heavy drones so I have something to chase frigs with).
"flying a solo bs atm means jackshiat since you will not catch anything without a tackler."
Meh, there's still enough silly ppl around to let you catch them, or to come running after you without adequate setups/thought, or to just simply have the courage to come after you by themselves. Killed 7 bs solo between yesterday and the day before's hunting trips, total time spent hunting about 3 hours. [/epeen]
"Anyway I'd be happy with my blasters getting a slight increase in tracking."
After messing around with Void for the last couple of days, any tracking love that comes the way of large blasters would be more than welcome. Got to be sooooooo careful on the approach when using void, ramming them to knock them off alignment as I would do with AM results in misses for a good 20 seconds while transversal settles down.
"Is it only me ok with mega CPU issue ?
It seems, that when you trying to install MOST powerfull weapon on your ship - you`ll have CPU or PG issue. I`m still need to sacrifice (sp ? ) 1 low slot for PDU (or RCU) on my 1400 tempest (with plate installed). If apoc user want to fit 8 x tach - they still need to sacrifice slots. Seems, that only raven can fit excellent tank with ease."
I'm not sure what you mean by most powerful here - dual 650/800 out DoT 1400 and dhp/mega pulse out DoTs tach substantially. Not really a meaningful comparison to compare blasters with long range turrets as the conditions for their use differ so much (slots needed for tank, tackling, getting in range, etc). I'd agree that 425mm rails are almost too easy to fit now though. But any fitting comparisons for blasters should be made with pulse/ac imo, not beam/arty.
Leaving aside tech II ammo for the moment (as I've not really got enough experience with it yet to decide if it's worth it for sure), to get a setup with t2 guns on it that I'd prefer to fly over a setup with named t1 guns on the mega involves me using about 180 mill worth of faction hardeners and damage mods ;\. This seems a bit daft to me.
