Droidster Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 90	Posted - 2013.10.02 12:20:00 - [1] - Quote I am trying to fit a Tengu for complexes and it is difficult to get much cap time. For example, this setup has 504 dps, 555 ehps + 80% resists, but only lasts for 1 minute 17 seconds even with the two cap rechargers. Maybe switching to a medium shield booster would be better? With a medium shield booster I can add another BCU and get dps to 565 + 2 target painters and have 5 minutes of cap, but my ehps drops to 436 which I don't think can handle 6/10 complexes.

Danny John-Peter Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 310	Posted - 2013.10.02 12:23:00 - [2] - Quote You don't need to be cap stable and you dont need a large shield booster. Tengu sig tanks most damage, fit for 5-6 minutes cap and then fit 4 BCUs at least 1 painter and 3 damage application rigs. Go to town.

Keep moving with your AB and cycle your booster as needed. Its impossible to need more than 300HP/s for a 6/10 in a 150m sig AB Tengu if you fly it properly. Also, re-specking to HAMgu will give you a much easier time in the difficulty level at hand. Here is an motivating example that costs around the same money as yours, is almost cap stable and can serve your purpose well.

You will also soon find out that you can replace the Gistum C booster for a cheaper Pithum and cycle it as much as needed in the complex without cap problems.

Malcanis Vanishing Point. The Initiative. 11937	Posted - 2013.10.02 14:00:00 - [7] - Quote Incidentally, a Halo set is an excellent and relatively inexpensive way of improving your Tengu's effective tank. Snakes are even better because they add mobility, but proportionaly much more expensive. 1 Kings 12:11
Bertrand Butler Cras es Noster 98	Posted - 2013.10.02 14:09:00 - [8] - Quote Quote: You can pimp it out further and run most any plex.

I'm in the market for a Tengu PvE pirate set.

Which will take you a lot more with no damage application and that missile range. Change those CCCs, 3 are totally redundant (and with the ACR sub you have, SMCs are better anyway). Also, meta4 the TP... Javelins go out to almost 50km and when you are in a 10/10 webbed down to 8 m/s you need cap stability to tank everything. Not today spaghetti.
Bertrand Butler Cras es Noster 98	Posted - 2013.10.02 14:59:00 - [10] - Quote Javelins go out to 45km without any range rigs, and without rigors or TPs your missiles do much less applied damage. The more gank you have, the less tank you need to cope with a DPS spike. You will not run a Tengu solo in a 10/10 (unless you are a friendless masochist...XD
Zhilia Mann Tide Way Out Productions 1598	Posted - 2013.10.02 15:07:00 - [11] - Quote Which 6/10s are you trying to do? You're overtanked for anything but Serpentis and you're under damage for Sansha. I have no trouble with a paper tank of 321 rat specific in the Blood 6 (and it's more or less omni tanked). Angel and Guristas wouldn't be a problem either.

This is more like the fit I have used. The differences in mine are: I use covert/nullified so, 3 Ballistic controls Cloak Large booster I can tank anything PVE in game if I fly right. The DPS is weak and sometimes I need help killing stations/towers I like having the giant boost when it is needed. (because sometimes it is needed) @ the OP, Cap stable doesn't mean crap if your dead... so that's my philosophy on Large boosters vs cap stable. I don't run the 10/10's because I am a friendless masochist, I run them solo because the kids need new shoes
Thaddeus Eggeras TwoTenX LEGIO ASTARTES ARCANUM 20	Posted - 2013.10.02 20:09:00 - [14] - Quote You can fit a Tengu with 5 launchers and it will be fully cap stable with a med shield booster, Invuls and AB. You will still get over 800DPS with HAM with her too.
Droidster Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 93	Posted - 2013.10.02 20:30:00 - [15] - Quote I am relunctant to run HAMS in complexes because of the range issue (for example there is one complex with an industructible pillar that you have to stay 50km away from to avoid its webbing), and also because HAMS are less effective against frigates. I read some recent nightmare post from someone who lost their Tengu to a cluster of elite frigates.
Thaddeus Eggeras TwoTenX LEGIO ASTARTES ARCANUM 21	Posted - 2013.10.02 20:52:00 - [16] - Quote Tengu with T2 launchers the javelins can hit past 50km, rage around 30km and faction/T1s like 36km to 38km. If you have your missile skills up, HAMs really aren't that much less effective (anymore). I tested this when someone else said that, I used HMLs to kill elite frigates, took 3 volleys, then I used HAMs, took 3 volleys. Have your skills up, have a TP and the right rigs if you are worried about their effectiveness and know your enemy. I don't even use a TP and I never really have issues with any type of targets. I can solo 10 of 10s usually with my Tengu, or my RS. Big thing is have ALL your subsystems to 5, have good to great missile and shield skills, and know your enemy.

You will not run a Tengu solo in a 10/10 (unless you are a friendless masochist...XD I have a different variant with 4 navy BCUs small SB and faction AB everything else is T2, javelins 75km, faction 49, rage 41. More gank than it's needed for 10/10 and with perma booster running+pill at worst shields go down at 65% but you clean frigs so fast you get 100% back pretty fast. Doing it with a buddy is funnier thou, bm wrecks and leave noobies make some isk it's also cool. Thing is that it's perfectly possible to do it with no much problem if at all when you know what you're doing but personally don't find this very amusing unless I play with someone else and always a noobie, noobies are awesome, they can scout warp gate for you they are curious and want to learn then clean the field and ask for more. removed inappropriate ASCII art signature - CCP Eterne
Thaddeus Eggeras TwoTenX LEGIO ASTARTES ARCANUM 23	Posted - 2013.10.02 23:50:00 - [18] - Quote I agree it is a lot more fun to do it with buddies, but like you said you don't have to. A well fit Tengu, or RS, or etc can do them solo pretty easy.
Christyna Ishiyama Perkone Caldari State 1	Posted - 2013.10.03 07:37:00 - [19] - Quote with 5 launchers you can have aproximately .... 1200 dps tank / 65 km range with javelins / 850 dps with rage (aproximate values - medium booster and price will be relatively high - 1,8 billions) than you can invest less for adaptive shield booster and have only 1050 dps tank ( - 450 milions) or 1150 dps tank (-100 millions) its basically this: [Tengu, Tengu fit pith booster] Damage Control II Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Ballistic Control System II Gist X-Type Large Shield Booster Shield Boost Amplifier II Gistum C-Type Adaptive Invulnerability Field Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Pithum B-Type EM Ward Amplifier Corelum B-Type 10MN Afterburner Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Nova Rage Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Nova Rage Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Nova Rage Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Nova Rage Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Nova Rage Heavy Assault Missile Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I Medium Hydraulic Bay Thrusters II Medium Hydraulic Bay Thrusters II Tengu Propulsion - Fuel Catalyst Tengu Defensive - Amplification Node Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay Tengu Electronics - CPU Efficiency Gate Tengu Engineering - Capacitor Regeneration Matrix just switching Gistum C-type adaptive invul field to have at cheaper or more expensive and then additional possibility is to go for 6 launchers (aproximately 100 dps + / range - 10km on javelin and worse tank) and tank with option bellow around 880 dps [Tengu, Tengu fit pith booster] Damage Control II Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Pithum C-Type Medium Shield Booster Shield Boost Amplifier II Gistum C-Type Adaptive Invulnerability Field Pithum C-Type Adaptive Invulnerability Field Pithum B-Type EM Ward Amplifier Corelum B-Type 10MN Afterburner Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Heavy Assault Missile Launcher II, Scourge Javelin Heavy Assault Missile Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II Medium Hydraulic Bay Thrusters II Tengu Propulsion - Fuel Catalyst Tengu Defensive - Amplification Node Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay Tengu Engineering - Augmented Capacitor Reservoir Tengu Electronics - Dissolution Sequencer or somethink like that ... with price aproximately 400m cheaper ... etc ...

So the important is how much do you want to invest. You can also take gist booster which require low power and you can easily fit more Hydraulic bays and still be cap stable. I had also variant with 100nm burner EDIT: everything is counter with implantants 5 rapid launch, 5 energy management, 5 HAM, 5 energy system operations....
Christyna Ishiyama Perkone Caldari State 1	Posted - 2013.10.03 07:43:00 - [20] - Quote the tengu needs much lower tank than I wrote here ... But Since I once died I rather overtank it than die by "accident". I added that damage control because fourth bcu add little so it doesnt worth to take it most of the time and I will rather increase my tank by more. I died once when elite frigates scramble me + web me and I wasnt able to kill them as fast as I need with all that BS shotting at me when I stay on one place without possibility to move.... (just 2 - 3 sec more and it will be ok - but I dont have that few sec). btw. I died because of mine own mistake :-D (so thats how its happening most of the time). The things which I post are builds which should give you the space for "MISTAKES" :-)
