Hey guys, Im looking for some decent setups for my Arbitrator...
It will probably have to rely on drones for damage while devoting its low and mid slots to EW and tanking.
Thanks in advance!

Edited by: Gabby05 on 01/02/2006 22:05:34 Edited by: Gabby05 on 01/02/2006 22:03:59 Cant remember my setup and what exactly fits think it has 5 med slots
highs: Nos mids: disruptor/ web/ target painter x2/multispec lows: x2 small reps/ BIG named plate and whatever else you like to fit.
3 heavy explosive or meds or the EM drones (no one hardens for it)
That usually works for anything smaller than a cruiser anything bigger id probably fit something along the lines of a cap booster and multijammer set.

Ok well doing my homework I came across a pretty nice looking PvP setup for an Arby.
Originally posted by Asarah: ----------------------------------- 3 medium NOS, Assault with defenders\damage type your drones don't cover
scram, web, 2x tracking disrupts
Med rep, 2 hardners and either a 400 plate or a CPR
5x light drones, 5x medium drones -------------------------------
I'm gonna try this one out and if its too slow for me I think Ill switch out one of the disruptors for an 10mnAB.

Looks pretty solid to me. Those 3 nosses are going to certainly give a cruiser a difficult tanking time, while giving you plenty of capacitor for repairing. I say go for the 400mm plate because those three nos should do plenty fo help your repairer and it will allow you to survive longer while you eliminate the target's capacitor and thus their tank.
Test it though. See if the repairer sucks up more than your natural recharge rate and those three nosses combined, and for how long you can hold that tank with the 400mm. --------------

Don't use T2 small nos, the best named do the same with lower fitting reqs.

I am fitting small nosferatus on a cruiser! Believe me the fitting requirements are not important.

T2 small nos aren't even ingame are they? You'll have to use Diminishers anyway.

Wanted to try something other then 'vampire' setup. Amarr ship are good at tanking so I kept that in mind fitting this seup.
Hi:
2 Medium Beam Laser II w/Conflagration S 1 Assult Missile Launcher II w/Sabertooth Light missile 1 Small diminishing nos
Med:
1 10mn AB II 1 Med Electrochemical cap booster w/ 800 charges 1 Warp disruptor 1 Tracking Disruptor II
Low:
1 Med Armor Rep II 1 Small Armor Rep II 1 EANM II 1 800mm Reinforced stell plate II
Drones:
7 Valkyrie II
Guns do em thermal dmg. Drones do explosive. Med drones shold be able to hit frigs along with the small guns and missile. I have like 6 PG and around 60 CPU left. Still trying to find a better use for the cpu. Post if any of you have any suggestions.

Considering the relative fragility of an Arbitrator (even if you put a tank on it), I would not recommend going all T2.

My Earthbound. Cool name eh?
Hi: ---- E50 Prototype energy Vampire (Med NOS) Medium 'Knave' I Energy Drain (Med NOS) E5 Prototype Energy Vampire (Small NOS) Small Diminishing Power System Drain I (Small NOS) ---------
Med: ---- 10mn AB I Tracking Disruptor I X5 Prototype I Engine Enevator (Web) Warp Scrambler I ---------
Low: ---- Medium Automated I Carapace Restoration 3x Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane I - Its pretty good, but after my skills come, I'll switch those Nanos to:
Active Thermic Hardener I Active Explosive hardener I Active Kinetic hardener I ---------
It works pretty good and with decend cap skills you can keep it juiced forever. Resistances will rise to 60% or over in every resistance type with those active hardeners, at least according to This. Dunno if that resistance calculator will work now, since the RMR has come, but I have fait. -------------

After the next patch, I am looking to see how the following Arb wil work against other cruisers, particularly the Rupture and Thorax.
2x Focused Med Pulses, 1x Med Nos, 1x Assault 1x MWD, 1x Warp Disruptor, 2x Tracking Disruptors 1x MAR, 1x PDU, 2x EANMs (Subbed for drone mods when they are released)
The tight fit necessitates the PDU, and whenever I use those on a non-shield tank, I tend to suspect I am doing something wrong.
Yeah, I could go the NOS route for cruisers, and without a web inties might escape. However, everyone expects an Arb to be able to hold its own against an inty unless the pilot is quite surprised and not accustomed to drone use. Arb should be able to scare off most inties, but with judicious use of the mwd, I think it should be able to do more dps and tank the missiles of non-Caldari cruisers.
If this cruiser were used to fight say a Celestis instead, the tank is really an afterthought, and 3x sensor amplifiers or something might be more useful. The lowslots on the glass jawed cruiser just won't be that useful till the drone mods are released.

I'm probably insane, but this is my setup for level 2 mission running: Highs: 1 drone link augmentor, 3 tractor beams Mediums: 4 Large Shield Extender II Lows: 4 Shield Power Relay Then 7 medium drones.
This gets me about 11k shields with a recharge time of about 300 seconds. My Arbitrator laughs (loudly) at most level 2s (I actually had to warp out on the last mission of Tech Secrets though. They killed my drones ) |

Edited by: Berrik Radhok on 15/02/2006 22:57:52 Here's my comedy setup for fending off interceptors... threw it together out of junk in my hangar, so there's room for improvement.
I tanked a rocket crow with this thing, and I expect that I can fit a 4th med nos now since I trained Eng V since I last used this. The dampener keeps them from just kiting you, they need to come decently close to attack you which should hopefully put them in nos + web range.
Highs 4 med nos, 1 small knave Meds 2 x web, 20km scrambler, sensor dampener Lows Med armor repairer, 3 x cap relay
edit: Drones are whatever, I just use hammerheads since I have a billion of them from mission loot

Good luck fitting 4 nos and a medium rep with the arbitrator's 718 grid. Also, what do you need that many cap relays for? The nos should get you enough cap to run your rep.

Improved fittings to my arbitrator:
Hi: 3x med nos Small Nos
Med: Capacitor recahrger tracking disruptor I 20 km scram web
low: Best named med repper kin therm and explo active hardeners
Drones: 2 therm med drones + 3 med kin drones 2 therm light drones + 3 light kin drones
Works pretty good. I cant remember the exat names to the modules 'cuz im at school, but i'll edit this post when i get home.
Im tanking BC's with this, player BC's to be exat. Can kill any T1 cruiser with proper skills... -------------

3 Medium Nos 1 Medium Beam Laser II loaded with Multifreq
1 10mn Afterburner 20km Disruptor Web Tracking Disruptor
Med Armour Repairer II Thermic Armour Hardner Energized Adaptive Plate OR Kinetic Armour Hardner Reactor Control Unit I
I've used this setup to take down a Tempest, Brutix, Ferox and other Cruisers. I like my setup a lot, but I'm new to the Arbitrator too, so comment on my setup please :)

Well if this is for PvP, only one question: No explo hardener? Thorax ate my arbitrator when I _forgotted_ to activate my explo hardener... Damn Valkyries...
It sure looks like it takes a whole bunch of powergrid... Well if it fits, aguess its ok... But beware, arbitrator has paper-like armor so if theres not plating, big resistances really help.

I bought an Arb today to have some fun, and this is what I ended up with.
Hi- 2med nosf, 2sml nosf Med- Ab, web, 2scram low- 1med rep, 3 hardeners (expl, kin, therm)
Drones, 3med therm, 2med expl, 5light kin
I normally run into alot of people with a single wcs, so that dual scram is almost needed if I'm going solo or just with an extra person. Tanking with this thing is not fun it just feels very frail no matter what I try and put down there.
If I had the luxury of not having to use dual scrams I would probably throw on a tracking disruptor or a cap recharger.
The setup works pretty good, Sadly for me I have pretty low drone skills so thise ship doesn't shine anywhere near its potential for me atm.

Im lookin at the Arby as a cheap effective pvp ship and have been playing avound with quick-fit. i came up with a couple of setups, and wanna see what ppl think.
#1- Cap is a little on the weak side...
Highs: 2x Med Nos 2x (small)Med Beam Laser (MF)
Mids: 1x 10MN MWD 1x Stasis Web 1x Warp Scram (2 pt - 7.5km) 1x Tracking Disruptor
Low: 1x Med Armor Rep (T1 Named- all i can fit with Eng+Elec @ L5) 1x 400mm Plate 1x Adaptive Nano 1x Cap power Relay
or
#2- lower (stock) armor hp...
Highs: 2x Med Nos 2x Small Nos
Mids: Same as above
Lows: 1x Med Armor rep T2 1x Active Expl Hardener 1x Active Kin Hardener 1x Passive Therm Hardener (not enough cpu for active) (All resists around 60%-ish)
Drones for both: 3x Expl; 2x Thermal per size - 5 med, 5 light
Rip em up ;p

Hey all, a related question from someone with little PvP experience.
Let's say I'm ratting, and a PC attacks me in an interceptor, orbitting at close range. Is a single web and drones sufficient to hold and kill the interceptor?
Basically, I'm looking at how much of my setup do I need to devote to an anti-fast-ship role if I want to maintain some defense.

I am thinking the following.
High 3xMedium Nos II 1xgun of somesort
Mids webber 2xscram 1xtracking disruptor
lows medium repair II Tank setup
Drones, Mediums and Lights all mixxed up  _________________________ Siggy by Esturary |
