Samirol	Posted - 2006.02.06 21:04:00 - [1] Edited by: Samirol on 06/02/2006 21:05:34 Hey, what kind of Taranis setups are you guys using, I am currently running: High: 3x Light Ion II Blasters, 1 small nos Medium: 1mn MWD, 1 langour webber, 1 j5b webber Low: 1x CPR, 1 MAPC, 1 Mag Field Stab II Let me know if I am messing up or something You won't like me when i am mad
Asurix	Posted - 2006.02.06 21:10:00 - [2] I have the same except change the mag field stab II for a small repper II (or the CPR, whatever you wanna lose, SAR II is invaluable imo)
Palx	Posted - 2006.02.06 21:39:00 - [3] 3 electrons (null ammo), 1 nos mwd,web,scram rep, plate, mapc 3 ions (null ammo), 1 nos mwd, web, scram magstab, rep, mapc last one I cant exactaly remeber: 3 neuts (void addmo) mwd/web/scram magstab, mapc, rep? dunno tbfh
lofty29	Posted - 2006.02.06 22:06:00 - [4] Last one, and most damaging (just cant fit a mwd II) is - Hi- 3x Neutron II 1x Small Nos Med- T1 MWD Scram Web Low- 2x MAPC Small rep II ^^ My Favourite ^^ ---------------------------

Samirol	Posted - 2006.02.09 03:57:00 - [9] Originally by: lofty29 Last one, and most damaging (just cant fit a mwd II) is - Hi- 3x Neutron II 1x Small Nos Med- T1 MWD Scram Web Low- 2x MAPC Small rep II ^^ My Favourite ^^ I am using this one with t2 ions, kills BC's np (npc that is, still have to face a couple of my corp mates ) Punctuation is overrated.

High Small Dimishing Nos 3Neutron II Med mwd II x5 proto j5b phased proto scram Low 2MAPC small rep II 67.12/68.75 pg 171.5/187.5 cpu Also my favorite setup, but it's ages ago now since i actually used my ranis
Bazman	Posted - 2006.02.09 05:43:00 - [11] zomg, how come no-one's mentioned the best setup ever? :P 3 Ion II's Named MWD, 2x X5's or 1 X5 and 1 Scrambler Small Rep, 200 Tungsten, MAPC Low on cap endurance, but you will kill virtually any interceptor before that becomes an issue. Null ammo is nice on this but with a dual web setup, you should use void ammo. It's like a built in damage mod :P ----- Hi TomB! All out Do or Die Blasterboat for tier 3 Gallente battleship please! Make it look cool too. Thanks.
nubos	Posted - 2006.02.16 09:47:00 - [12] My setup is: High: 3 t2 ions Med: gisti a-type mwd, -90% webyfier, 20km disruptor low: t2 magnetic field stab, MAPC, small t2 repper Fitted like that i can easily get in range of my blasters and vaporize target

nubos	Posted - 2006.02.16 10:56:00 - [15] gisti mwd 26-27mil other fitting ~10mil
Xoduse	Posted - 2006.02.16 12:06:00 - [16] Edited by: Xoduse on 16/02/2006 12:06:28 Originally by: nubos My setup is: High: 3 t2 ions Med: gisti a-type mwd, -90% webyfier, 20km disruptor low: t2 magnetic field stab, MAPC, small t2 repper Fitted like that i can easily get in range of my blasters and vaporize target For this and, and other setups blaster based...what do you guys do? Dive bomb the target and pray he doesnt have a web to wipe out your uber 'Ranis?
Scorpyon	Posted - 2006.02.16 13:01:00 - [17] I sometimes fly a setup similar to Ka Dargo's setup posted above except i fit 1 langour webb and 1 x5 webb. To do this you need to have a 3% cpu implant installed, which only cost aroung 400k. You also need that implant to fit the gankaranis setup. 1st has a damage mod of around 12x and the second around 14x. If you can dictate the range, it will melt any inty you can get close to. Scorp
Linavin	Posted - 2006.02.16 14:45:00 - [18] Originally by: Xoduse For this and, and other setups blaster based...what do you guys do? Dive bomb the target and pray he doesnt have a web to wipe out your uber 'Ranis? Pretty much, the idea being that you'll kill them with the sheer damage before they can do much of their own. --- Originally by: Sarmaul nm, that says lub not lube
Makkita	Posted - 2006.03.16 20:30:00 - [19] I call this the ScareCrow setup High-3 Neutron Blasters \| 1 Nos Med-2 Webbers \| MWD Low-2 MAPC's \| 200mm plate Drones-2 Warriors With good skills you'll have a ton of armor, speed, dmg and MOST IMPORTAINTLY the advantage. Feel free to switch out a webber for a scram. ROCK on!
Bishop 5	Posted - 2006.03.16 22:20:00 - [20] 2x ion IIs 2x named nos 1x mwd II 1x fleeting web 1x fleeting scram 1x mapc 1x sarII err... something else... might be CPR.. might be damage control might be damage mod... i can't remember and 1 med drone -------------
Kaleeb	Posted - 2006.03.16 22:39:00 - [21] Originally by: Bazman zomg, how come no-one's mentioned the best setup ever? :P 3 Ion II's Named MWD, 2x X5's or 1 X5 and 1 Scrambler Small Rep, 200 Tungsten, MAPC Stop copying my setup! p: Its a very good setup although I lost to an electron ranis with a nos the other day
Darpz	Posted - 2006.03.17 00:53:00 - [22] this setup pwns 3xneutron IIs w/void Gisti AB 2xWeb MAPC 2xMagstab 2 works great in a group or in a 1v1 against someone you know is in a close range setup. I also use it for camping stations since it deals HUGE damage and can often kill ceptors/afs before they get a chance to redock with good skills this is about 300dps The only good fix is a DEAD fix
Asurix	Posted - 2006.03.20 17:52:00 - [23] using 3 electrons nosf mwd web scram sar 200mm tungsten MAPC what you guys think? never used this fitting before but i kinda like it already. I get 115 DPS out of it with AM dunno if that's enough
Montero	Posted - 2006.03.20 18:03:00 - [24] Originally by: Bazman zomg, how come no-one's mentioned the best setup ever? :P 3 Ion II's Named MWD, 2x X5's or 1 X5 and 1 Scrambler Small Rep, 200 Tungsten, MAPC Low on cap endurance, but you will kill virtually any interceptor before that becomes an issue. Null ammo is nice on this but with a dual web setup, you should use void ammo. It's like a built in damage mod :P works nicely for 125 rails too. JUST GET THE **** OFF MY SIG, K?
Captain Pringles	Posted - 2006.03.21 10:20:00 - [25] Has anyone done the calculations of using a dmg controll unit vs a plate.. I mean the taranis has a heapload of hull ;)
JoKane	Posted - 2006.03.21 10:27:00 - [26] 3 x 125mm II 1 x Small nos 1 x MWD 1 x Scram 1 x Webber 1 x Small armor rep II 1 x Micro AUX 1 x Cap relay/dmg mod/whatever
MuShRoOm ChAmPiOn	Posted - 2006.03.21 11:31:00 - [27] 3 X 150MM Railgun II (Plutonium) 1 X MWD 1 X webber 1 X 20KM disrupter 1 X small repairer II 1 X cap relay 1 X MAPC 2 X light drones Does the trick orbiting at 13KM with MWD on.
Vangelis	Posted - 2006.03.29 12:50:00 - [28] Doesnt adding a MWD make u foder to larger turrrets as it increases your sig radius my 500%??? I use Named AB's on my frigs and Intys and havnt realy got a prob.
DoMeRIGht	Posted - 2006.03.29 20:36:00 - [29] Edited by: DoMeRIGht on 29/03/2006 20:37:09 Still to be testet, only taken it out a few times and so far its okay. HIGH:3x 125mm IIs, 1x small remote repper (offlined) MED:1x MWD 1x 20km scrambler 1x Tracking Distrupter LOW:1x Mag II 1x local nano 1x CPR The idear is to stay at 15km using the distruptor plus ur speed to have cruiser and inties/af miss you. The remote rep is if a m8 needs repping. Needs testing but would be fun to take out cruisers, just not the drone ones Give me some inputs
Hamatitio	Posted - 2006.03.29 20:44:00 - [30] Taranis is much too slow for the long range style. --- I Post on the forums for Fate. Im cool. Industrialists wanted
Boris Nikolaovitch	Posted - 2006.03.30 09:24:00 - [31] Edited by: Boris Nikolaovitch on 30/03/2006 09:24:44 What's the big deal with these T2 neutron setups, apart from conserving ammo? Is it about range? Now, I agree, it is cool to fit a full rack of the baddest blasters plus a nos, but as we know, three T2 ions with a T2 mag stab deal significantly more dps than three T2 neutrons, and track better too.
Crellion	Posted - 2006.03.30 09:44:00 - [32] Originally by: Boris Nikolaovitch Edited by: Boris Nikolaovitch on 30/03/2006 09:24:44 What's the big deal with these T2 neutron setups, apart from conserving ammo?

Now, I agree, it is cool to fit a full rack of the baddest blasters plus a nos, but as we know, three T2 ions with a T2 mag stab deal significantly more dps than three T2 neutrons, and track better too. But the T2 Neut set up kills 2BS-2l33tfrig npc spawns :P
Boris Nikolaovitch	Posted - 2006.03.30 10:25:00 - [33] I bet the full gank one (three T2 neuts, two mag stabs, not much else) does, but I was talking about this one: Originally by: Lodhi Edited by: Lodhi on 09/02/2006 04:36:06 Lofty quoted setup snipped You can get a mwd II in. High Small Dimishing Nos 3Neutron II Med mwd II x5 proto j5b phased proto scram Low 2MAPC small rep II 67.12/68.75 pg 171.5/187.5 cpu Also my favorite setup, but it's ages ago now since i actually used my ranis AFAIK, swapping the neutrons for ions and one MAPC for a mag stab would do better on that setup. With my very average skills, Quickfit gives me 149 base dps vs structure, T2 drones not included, with the ions setup, vs 130 using the neutrons. Hell, if dps is king and you want some modern conveniences, three T2 electrons and two T2 mag stabs fits with carefully selected named nos, web, scram, mwd and repper, and does 166.7 base dps before you add the drones.
wide	Posted - 2006.04.11 02:20:00 - [34] Any opinions on this set up for maximum damage NPC ratting?: High - 3 x light neutron blaster ii Medium - micro 'vigor' i core augmentation - 1mn microwarpdrive ii Low - 3 x magnetic field stabilizer ii Its obviously not a wise set up for PVP but designed to rip through rats as quickly as possible. Using Void and skills in Interceptors and related gunnery skills trained to maximum, wreckers on structure should be about 596.
DrunkenUno	Posted - 2006.04.11 03:27:00 - [35] Originally by: wide Any opinions on this set up for maximum damage NPC ratting?: High - 3 x light neutron blaster ii Medium - micro 'vigor' i core augmentation - 1mn microwarpdrive ii Low - 3 x magnetic field stabilizer ii Its obviously not a wise set up for PVP but designed to rip through rats as quickly as possible. Using Void and skills in Interceptors and related gunnery skills trained to maximum, wreckers on structure should be about 596. A) that doesnt fit B) micro aux cores are low slot not mid slot
wide	Posted - 2006.04.11 04:30:00 - [36] Originally by: DrunkenUno A) that doesnt fit B) micro aux cores are low slot not mid slot Damn, dang and blast! I thought those things were mid slotters.
GrayVon	Posted - 2006.04.14 05:10:00 - [37] Why are most of these setups a NPC setup? Seems to me anyone with the skills to fly a Interceptor would have the Skills to fly a AF which would make a much better NPC ratting machine. My question are the same as a couple of others that came up but were not answered .. Damage control mods with a 52% to Hull would give this ship a uber Hull tanking ability. And isn't this ship about range? why all the blasters? Noticed no one mentioned a WCS, assume thats because you could out run the range of a scramble and get into warp? And why the rampant use of Aux Power cores? wouildn't the low slots be better used for Armor stuff or Heat sinks(or Mag Fields)?
mr devast	Posted - 2006.04.14 06:11:00 - [38] Edited by: mr devast on 14/04/2006 06:12:09 Meh.. lotsa bad setups... altho i'll try out the 2xmfsII setup some time... anyway here's my solo setup, preferably for 1v1: 3x neutron II catalyzed MWD, x5 web, named scrambler MAPC, MFSII, named damage control ~10,5x dmg mod with ~2.25 rof remember to always use null ammo! if u fit correctly you will have 1-2 cpu free bigger fleet, closerange: 3x ion II, small nos catalyzed MWD,x5 web, named scrambler MAPC, small t2 armor rep, named damage control longrange: i dunno... i'm still experimenting with those setups
trimdonite	Posted - 2006.04.14 08:18:00 - [39] what sort of range are we talking about though with these blaster setups? Ive always stuck with the ares mainly due to my average gunnery skills, and most inties ive gone up against are either faster or can keep their range from me. surely your relying on being able to get close enough with that setup, and if you cant your dead?
Asurix	Posted - 2006.04.14 11:06:00 - [40] with null you can hit upto like 7km, so 1-7km range on a taranis with blasters more or less. Also some people don't know what they're talking about in this topic Why fit MAPC? Because we have to, obviously!!! And taranis currently is the only succesful blasterboat of gallente build so stop saying we have to fit it with rails ;)
LUKEC	Posted - 2006.04.14 11:59:00 - [41] 3x 150mm t2 mwdII, web, 20km scram small rep, dmg mod, mapc need -5% cpu imp to fit, and has some issues with scramming, however better than most long range intys... because it can web stuff to control range. Die, die, die.
Tenchu Migoto	Posted - 2006.04.15 00:07:00 - [42] I personally found this setup useful... great damage, but I've always found cap issues, no matter what ship I fly... meh... here's the "Best Taranis Setup... EVER ...end of story, no comebacks, double quincies..." HIGH 3x Light Neutron Blaster IIs MED MWD Scram (2pt) Web Low 2 CPR MAPC ...that's right, bow... clearly it's not made for long intensive battles, it's logic is to get in, clear out, move on fast and generally in some sort of homeland for repairs and what not
Captain Pringles	Posted - 2006.04.15 00:31:00 - [43] Edited by: Captain Pringles on 15/04/2006 00:32:27 Edited by: Captain Pringles on 15/04/2006 00:31:23 HIGH-SLOTS : ~~~~~~~~~~~~ > [ 7 \| 12] Light Ion Blaster II [120xNull S] > [ 7 \| 12] Light Ion Blaster II [120xNull S] > [ 7 \| 12] Light Ion Blaster II [120xNull S] > [ 0 \| 0] Empty Slot MED-SLOTS : ~~~~~~~~~~~ > [ 15 \| 23] Catalyzed Cold-Gas I Arcjet Thrusters > [ 1 \| 21] X5 Prototype I Engine Enervator > [ 1 \| 24] Faint Epsilon Warp Prohibitor I LOW-SLOTS : ~~~~~~~~~~~ > [ 1 \| 30] Magnetic Field Stabilizer II > [ 1 \| 21] F85 Peripheral Damage System I > [ 1 \| 30] Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Best setup imho for dmg AND survivability, similar to the neuts - mapc - dmg control - magstab, but a deal more dps, but alot tighter on cpu with double webs its alot easier (and cheaper) to fit, no need for the named dmg control
Ernest Graefenberg	Posted - 2006.04.16 11:23:00 - [44] J5B uses less CPU too, and you'd really want to use a decent named Damage Control with that. Your guns and magstabs are pricey already anyway, paying 4-6 mil for a Pseudoelec isn't going to break the bank. Also using Ions and bigger for NPCing is a bit pointless. With a fight consisting of 8 blasts the alpha matters somewhat (although not to the point of justifying fitting mods), but shooting NPC bs it doesn't at all. The raw DPS loss on the other hand isn't that bad at all, compared to the nos and tank you can then fit with ease.
Ernest Graefenberg	Posted - 2006.04.16 11:29:00 - [45] Originally by: Samirol Originally by: lofty29 Last one, and most damaging (just cant fit a mwd II) is - Hi- 3x Neutron II 1x Small Nos Med- T1 MWD Scram Web Low- 2x MAPC Small rep II ^^ My Favourite ^^ I am using this one with t2 ions, kills BC's np (npc that is, still have to face a couple of my corp mates ) It kills NPC battlecruisers, woohoo. Kind of like any t1 frig ever, except alot more expensive.
Captain Pringles	Posted - 2006.04.16 14:13:00 - [46] to my knowledge j5b uses 25 cpu while faint epsilon uses 24. true that i save a few mil from not using a mwd II, but the extra effect of a named dmg mod over a normal one is not worth millions imho, cheaper the better (guns are 500k each and the dmg mods like 1m each, dunno where you shop for stuff but thats not what i call expensive.)
Aisling	Posted - 2006.04.18 01:57:00 - [47] what is a MAPC?
Litus Arowar	Posted - 2006.04.18 02:05:00 - [48] Originally by: Aisling what is a MAPC? micro auxiliary powercore... +10 grid for 15 CPU (+12.5 grid with engineering 5)
Wintermut3	Posted - 2006.04.23 03:01:00 - [49] How many skillpoints should one have when ratting BS's in one of these things?
cheese390	Posted - 2006.04.23 03:26:00 - [50] Originally by: Vangelis Doesnt adding a MWD make u foder to larger turrrets as it increases your sig radius my 500%??? I use Named AB's on my frigs and Intys and havnt realy got a prob. You'd be fodder if you just turned it on and stood still, but since you increase your velocity so much, the larger turrets cant track you anyway. Just today some guy missed me 30 times in a row sniping at me when i was MWD'ing.
CaseusFeles	Posted - 2006.04.28 01:48:00 - [51] Out of curiosity, what seems to be the source of the enthusiam with the MWD? At that speed can you really get a decent DPS while orbiting? And why doesn't a tech 2 afterburner, which would give you around 1000-1100 m/s do the job?
Chewyguru	Posted - 2006.04.28 02:42:00 - [52] my favorite is this 3 t2 125 with antimatter loaded and spike and javelin in cargo small diminishing gisti mwd, domination stasis web 20k disruptor two wcs, one power diag

Bloodst0ne	Posted - 2006.04.28 03:37:00 - [55] Originally by: Palx last one I cant exactaly remeber: 3 neuts (void addmo) mwd/web/scram magstab, mapc, rep? dunno tbfh Can't fit rep with that ganking setup. I either use a pdu II, or a cap. relay. The damage mod is something like 11.25, with a rof around 2.4
Paull90	Posted - 2006.05.09 20:17:00 - [56] I've been playing around with this on the quick fit off line ship fitter and come up with the following setup: Hi-Slots 3x Light Neutron Blaster II (with Null and Void ammo) Med-Slots 1x 1MN MicroWarpdrive II 1x X5 Prototype I Engine Enervator 1xFaint Epsilon Warp Prohibitor I Low-Slots 1x Micro Auxiliary Power Core I 1x Magnetic Field Stabilizer II 1x 'Refuge' Adaptive Nano Plating I

Angus Torg	Posted - 2006.05.10 07:43:00 - [59] 3 * Light Ion Blaster II /w Void S 1 * 1MN Microwarpdrive II 1 * Fleeting Propulsion Inhibitor I 1 * Cap Recharger II (or whatever fits) 3 * Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Makes 290 raw DPS (with implants) and is quite a suicide ship. For NPCing, I use an AB with a small shield booster. Works pretty nice against NPC battleships, but beware of the evil cruiser spawns.

I still had 60% armor left after the fight Cheers! Fogy "From my rotting boddy flowers shall grow and I am in them, and that is eternity" New Direction New Area New Victims

Piloting tip: DO NOT FORGET TO LAUNCH DRONES. You can modify that setup by replacing the Neuts with Ions and the MAPC with another mag stab. You lose a little range, gain a little damage, I think it's something like another 15 dps with my skills using null.

steveid	Posted - 2006.06.10 13:51:00 - [66] Edited by: steveid on 10/06/2006 13:55:22 okays so i've taken the posters advice and switched my electron II's to ion II's. My setup now is: 3 ion II's top slot empty afterburner II small shield booster II 3 damage mod II's This wont work for everyone but since i'm fighting angels who hit explosive i thought i'd make use of the 60% shield resist i have already while getting another damage mod in. This gives me wrecking shots of 349 and a rof of 1.7 seconds. I am training small blaster specialisation now, and after i'm done with that i'll move onto surgical strike. What other skills and implants can i use to increase my damage per shot, my frequency of wrecking hits and my rof? Another question: with only two damage mods i have a rof of 1.84. Would switching back to armor repping and either putting a target painter or tracking mod in increase the amount of good hits i am getting on bs's, and therefore be better than a third damage mod?

The point is, curse rats do explosive damage, and the ranis has 10% resist on armor and 60% on shields, so you may as well use the mid slot thats not really needed and use the low slot for extra damage. I'm experimating with an ishkur now.

Dice Mann	Posted - 2006.07.27 22:47:00 - [77] OK noob question guys, I totally get how to fit one of these things out (3 blasters, MWD, 7.5km scram, web, mix repper/cpr/mfs/mapc) from what's been written here. What I don't get is the tactics. What can I expect to take down in this ship and, as importantly, how? Can I pose three scenarios that I'd like you guys to suggest an approach to: 1. Killing any old cruiser with good web and a reasonable tank and possibly NOS 2. Killing a missile boat with light/heavy missiles and web 3. Tackling anything large (BC/BS size) and staying alive long enough for your fellow pirate-mate to warp in and kill it. Is the idea in cases 1 and 2 that you hit them so fast that they just die before you do? do you leave the MWD on or off? Orbiting or manual work? Thanks
Quilan Ziller	Posted - 2006.08.20 01:08:00 - [78] I am a realtively new player considering a Taranis, and I have some tactics questions. Let me start with a true story. Yesterday, as I was supervising some major NPC loot recovery operations, I was attacked by a pirate in a Taranis. At the moment I was in my very basic anti-rat Thorax outfitted with 2 Small and 2 Medium Modal Neutron blasters with AM charges, Medium named NOS, 10MN AB II, X5 Web, some cap recharger, paper-thin 400mm plate, named medium armor repper, MFSII, and a couple of power diagnostic units. Oh, and 4 Hammerheads I in the drone bay - two of them significantly beat up. My shield was 90% down from confronting 3 major rats 2 minutes before. As the Taranis locked onto me, I was really scared, because, well, I have read a lot about the deadliness of this small ship, and, well, I had no shield and a corp-mate's Iteron behind my back. Taranis used its MWD to get within 1km or so, immediately locked and started orbiting and shooting. The confrontation from that point on looked like that: Bzzz... bzzz... bzzzz... <he warp scrambles me and continues shooting> locked turn on the tank, since 20% of poor Rax's armor is already gone <he turns on his webber> blam turn on my webber and NOS blam launch Hammerheads blam blam CROAK I let his pod warp away because I am not really evil The whole confrontation lasted about 20 seconds, and still I had about 70% of my armor hitpoints intact when the poor soul blew up. According to Concord email and the contents of the loot can, he had the following Taranis setup: High: 3 Light Neutron II with Void, Knave I small NOS Med: Some named 1mn MWD, Langour webber, Fleeting warp scrambler Low: Most expensive Tech I MFS, some damage control stuff Needless to say, this confrontation made me think. I've been playing for 2 months and have barely 2 million SP - most in Learning, Science, and Drones. I have extremely basic gunnery skills. I fly an el cheapo cruiser (it is 50% or so the cost of a Taranis, and only my afterburner is Tech II). The attacker has been playing for more than a year, and, judging by his setup, has way, way more combat SPs than me. I have taken him out trivially, in just 4 shots. So, what is the point of having a Taranis then? Is it usable at all for solo PvP? If so, what would be the strategy against something like a Rax? I have no doubt Taranis is great for ratting - heck, my second-favorite ratting ship after Vexor is the Atron. But so far I am a bit underwhelmed. The attacker seemed to do everything right here (i.e. he was in range, he had good ammo and doing good damage), but he still lost decisively... What are everyone's thoughts?
Death Merchant InterGalactic Corp. Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2006.08.20 08:23:00 - [79] Quilan Ziller - You won decisively because of your web nos and drones. Thats the main drawback imo of any taranis setup that uses blasters.. yes it really nice when you get in range however it puts you in that dreaded 10km and below hot zone. If he had rails he could have orbited you at 15km.. kill of your hammerheads then eventually break your tank. Because without a web your medium guns wouldn't have hit.

What are everyone's thoughts? only certain people want others to think that interceptors are solo-pwnmobiles ... they aren't. your experience shows exactly the truth of interceptors. a solo interceptor can't gank a cruiser/battlecruiser/battleship if the pilot of the bigger ship knows what he is doing (i say only nos/web/drones). if you fly solo with an interceptor you have to pick your fights. it seems he picked the wrong one good targets for a interceptor are: t1 frigs, haulers, other interceptors, sniping BS ... yeah and n00bs in cruisers/battlecruisers/battleships (and i'm not talking about newbies! you might be a newbie, but not necessarily a n00b ) ___________________ -Skellibjalla- Life is a garden of perceptions.

Sweapt	Posted - 2006.09.05 12:18:00 - [81] I am thinking of getting a Taranis in the near future. After looking at the setups here on the site, and the specs of it in game. Would it be worth taking out something from the low slots and adding in an explosion dampening module in the low slots? (energized basic reactive membrane i think)

Going with my guts I'd say high DPS to quickly get rid of the Thorax' drones, and a small repairer to keep yourself alive in the meantime, probably along with a small Nos to somewhat sustain your cap for the odd repair cycle you might get off. 3x Light Ion II 1x Small Nos 1x MWD 1x Web 1x Scram 1x SAR II 1x Mag Field Stab II 1x whatever else fits This is from the top of my head and without any access to QuickFit etc, but it should fit without too many problems. ____________________ first!!1!! -Capsicum Originally by: Wrangler I lock, therefor I am.

T2 Valk's will wipe the floor with you nomatter what you do. 2) His guns WILL hit you enough when you're webbed. 5 blaster's will mince you.

This means if you fight a blaster ranis, you can web, keep target at 9km, same with any of the other short range intys (barrage on a claw could be a problem but either they can web you or scram you so if you see trouble coming you can get out, its not like against blaster-ranis where you can die in 2 seconds. If you fight long range interceptors, you have more dps and often more surviability (dmg control easy to fit) This is the reason the rail ranis is the pwnage, i love to fly the 2-3 dmg mod blaster ranises aswell but from a pure solo point of view they arent close to as good, this actually goes for anything but large gangs.
Ingui Frea	Posted - 2007.11.28 15:03:00 - [109] I just recently acquired my first Taranis. I'm busy getting some necessary skills up so I can fly this new ship correctly. I was wondering if any new setups have been discovered? If not, do all of these setups work well? Thanks in advance.
Dragos Mrs Garoun Investment Bank	Posted - 2007.11.28 15:41:00 - [110] ya, they do. i fly a blasteranis quite a bit, because they are cheap, and very effective. depending on your skills, there are alot of setups that will require engineering heavy sp to fit, but you can easily just swap t2 gear for named t1 gear in most cases. Damage Control II Magnetic Field Stabilizer II 'Refuge' Adaptive Nano Plating I 1MN Afterburner II Faint Warp Prohibitor I 'Langour' Drive Disruptor I Light Ion Blaster II Light Ion Blaster II Light Ion Blaster II Small 'Knave' I Energy Drain [empty rig slot] [empty rig slot] something like that gives about 200 dps ( 198 with my gunnery skills ) with 4k'ish effective armor and about 1500 m/s it's not orientated as pvp so much as low sec ratting, but there isn't any reason it couldn't stand up to your average frigate or t1 cruiser. mainly to fly an interceptor, you need lots of navigation skills so you can move fast, it's really all you got going for you.
MitchPT Hippie Haters Brutally Clever Empire	Posted - 2007.11.28 16:14:00 - [111] I love taranis and for a long time i didnt flew anything else for PvP. The thing i like it most is that it has so many possibilities. You can go the usual simple tackler: 3x 125mm Railguns II 1mn MWD, 1 Web, 1 Warp Disruptor 2x Overdrives II, 1x Nanofiber II Max DPS Ranis 3x Light Neutron Blasters II 1mn MWD, 1 Web, 1 Warp Disruptor (you usually don't change much here ) 1x MAPC,1 Dmg Control ,1 Mag Stab II Plated 3xLight Ion Blasters II SAME MIDS eheheh 1x MAPC,1 Small Armor Repper II,1x200mm Rolled Tungsten Here are some, have fun!
Romney	Posted - 2007.11.29 01:49:00 - [112] Originally by: MitchPT Max DPS Ranis 3x Light Neutron Blasters II 1mn MWD, 1 Web, 1 Warp Disruptor (you usually don't change much here ) 1x MAPC,1 Dmg Control ,1 Mag Stab II Even with all skill set to 5 in EFT, I'm having trouble getting the max DPS setup to fit. What are the exact modules you are using?
MitchPT Hippie Haters Brutally Clever Empire	Posted - 2007.11.29 11:21:00 - [113] You gotta go named modules on the dmg control,warp disruptor and web, for it to fit. The warp disruptor is the worse, but since you're gonna go real close to hit, the extra 4km aren't that useful.
