Ok, so this topic as many before it, has been discussed before, but im gonna bring it up anyway.....
I have been, up till now, using 280mmT2 howitzers on my Wolf, but on the advice of several other AF users, switched to autocannons (in this case 150mmIIs) to see if its better.
Equipped with a webber i sought out an Angel Legionnaire (175k Cyclone BC rat) and tested out things like DOT and damage recieved by target..
Overall, i think i i could kill the BC faster with howies, but i get shot far less when orbitting at 1km with ACs..
The point of this topic is: I would like to know other peoples opinions on what you consider to be a good NPC setup for the Wolf for systems around 0.1 to 0.3.
If you reply, thanks for taking the time  |

if you are only doing belt spawns, howy's are probably better as you can dictate range more. for missions and deadspace(no mwd) then autos definitely rock more

autos = higher dps, higher tracking, higher ammo use, lower fitting reqs, lower range
artillery = lower dps, lower tracking, lower ammo use, higher fitting reqs, higher range
for npcing I always use autos

I tend to use the AC's and get in really close. The closeness to the target really reduces damage you receive while utterly striping them in record fast times. The only real problem with this setup is the damage you take while closing with the target. As soon as you are orbiting they almost never hit.

I have found autocannons to be best for everything except for inties. I always have to have the arties on for those webbing types or else I'm pretty much a sitting duck.

real pilot use ship bonus! 
tbh though - barrage on wolf have some crazy falloff! 
have been giving it second look... though it would still **** weirda off if there was a mwd crow orbitting at 16km keeping weirda locked in place until friends log on, eat breakfast, have bio time, then come 10jump and finish the job...

But if you have arties the crow will just orbit a 1km and still be just fine... unless you have a web, then it'll run.

arty wolf mids: 1 90% web, 1 20km disruptor... anything else is suicide (if you alone)
