b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.15 23:21:00 - [1] Edited by: b1gs341 on 15/02/2006 23:25:57 I've been a roid pirate for awile now but find that it seems to be much easier to just sit at a gate and let the indys come to you. How would this setup work for solo tanking the sentires and ganking good targets. High:7x150mm AM ammo Med:Web, Sensor boost, Cargo scan, Warp disruptor Low:2x1600plate, 1 explosive hard, 1 therm hard, 1 Kin hard 3x Med explosive drone, 1 EM Med drone, 1 Kin Med drone Will repair between ganks. So how well would that setup work for ganking mainly indys and frigs. BTW I can also fly Ferox and could fly Prophs soon if they are much better at sentry tanking. Just have more skills in hybrid gunnery than missles or lasers.
Shinnen	Posted - 2006.02.15 23:32:00 - [2] Edited by: Shinnen on 15/02/2006 23:34:00 i used to do have the same setup but 1 med repper instead of the 2nd 1600 plate You can kill anything up to a battlecruiser. maybe add a 2nd sensor booster, get rid of the cargo scanner. When killing battlecruisers/cruisers at the gate - always stay aligned. --- - V - alliance once more!!! Devs please don't touch my beautiful sig -Shinnen I'm sure they won't ... Oops. -Capsicum
lofty29	Posted - 2006.02.15 23:54:00 - [3] Tbh, a well setup cruiser would completey walk over that All it'd need would be 1 warp scrambler and a decent tank and ypu're pwned so hard. --------------------------- Originally by: Wrangler I see boobies!! \o/
Slapudan	Posted - 2006.02.15 23:56:00 - [4] Kill anything up to a battlecruiser? Damn. Firstly you can't web. Secondly you got the gun firepower of a Destroyer without the tracking. And lastly, surely a good cruiser pilot could take you take you right out of the picture. Heck even a well set up hauler might kick yo ass? Or am I just being plain mean?
Slapudan	Posted - 2006.02.16 00:02:00 - [5] Surely u want do so as much damage as possible in the shortest time so you can get the heck outta there before the sentries mash you? Fit the hardners, fit a scrambler and web (MWD oe AB - either way the Brutix is a slow assed fat 5hite - needs new mod like 20MN or 50MN propulsion CCP), put the best cruiser guns you can fit on it (whether blasters or rails)-this means you use the ship bonus - super smashing damage! Now ya talkin :)
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 00:58:00 - [6] Edited by: b1gs341 on 16/02/2006 01:04:40 Edited by: b1gs341 on 16/02/2006 00:59:37 How long could a BC tank the sentrys. Im planning to get one soon and will probably run some tests. Just wondering if its even possible to run a solo BC and tank the Sentrys long enough to get some kills. Thats my main worry first. Then I can start working down from a tank setup to do more damage and attack larger stuff. Also why cant I web? Edited setup BTW.
Valea Silpha	Posted - 2006.02.16 01:11:00 - [7] I think the asnwer is 'not long enough'. You can tank them long enough to not die, but even a frig in PvP set-up could cause you problems. If he scrams you to the gate then you are serverly screwed. Without a repper its just a matter of time. Remember theres a 30km diameter sphere that people can appear in, and you don't have much scram range. Means that people can probably warp off before you scram them . I have some sort of genetic defect that makes my sigs too big :(
Darpz	Posted - 2006.02.16 01:11:00 - [8] this would work pretty well: 5xdual 150s 2xMedium Nos AB Web Disrupter Cap Booster 2xMAR Kinetic Explosive and Thermal Hards ---------------------------------------- The only good fix is a dead fix
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 01:13:00 - [9] My main question is how well each setup will tank the sentrys as my main fear is getting popped by them. Id rather go with a tank setup and kill small stuff at first until I get used to tanking them. Guess it comes from forgetting the timer in frigs and getting poped alot.

Imode	Posted - 2006.02.16 01:41:00 - [11] I'll be damned if thats not a horrific setup. Battlecruisers are already slow enough as it is. A couple of 1600's on that thing will surely turn it into a flying brick. ____________________________ Band of Builders Inc. - Firmus Ixion
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 02:09:00 - [12] Edited by: b1gs341 on 16/02/2006 02:14:49 It a gate gank setup. Its not going to be moving very far. If I wanted speed a would go with an MWD Rax. Also if I sit right on the gate its 15km every way meaning I only need to travel 5km to web and can disrupt right off the bat. Also with right ammo will be in firing range. To those telling me how this setup sucks what would you recommend. Even with reppers Im going to die eventually. Wouldnt plates allow me to survive longer?

A couple of 1600's on that thing will surely turn it into a flying brick. I dunno .... flying denotes at least a modicum of forward momentum, I'd be inclined to describe it as drifting like a brick
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 03:02:00 - [14] Well my goal is to never even have to move. What kind of DPS do the sentrys do?
LWMaverick	Posted - 2006.02.16 03:10:00 - [15] Originally by: b1gs341 Well my goal is to never even have to move. What kind of DPS do the sentrys do? Alot ;) You proberbly could, but it would take very high skills, and you woudlnt be able to kill anything else than haulers, frigs and other weak targets. /Mav With great power, comes great responsibility.
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 03:32:00 - [16] Ok is there anyway I could make the setup I posted with decent skills into someting that could could tank the sentrys and gank up to cruisers?
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 05:28:00 - [17] Alright found what I found to be best setup in Quick Fit. According to my numbers can tank Sentrys while cap holds which last about 130-135 seconds. Can get around 160 using a scrambler instead of a warp disruptor. Also can kill cruisers with AM in about 50 seconds inside 10km and pops intys pretty fast with Iron out to 19km. So am I just high on drugs and my numbers are wrong or could this setup easily do what I want. Only problem I could see would be multiple ships, anything bigger than it, or something with good nos ability. Also an AF around 19km could make it close using iron.
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 16:51:00 - [18] bump hoping for some input on my final setup
Shinnen	Posted - 2006.02.16 18:51:00 - [19] sentries can do more than 1200 damage a volley with this setup, I have killed cruisers and battlecruisers. --- - V - alliance once more!!! Devs please don't touch my beautiful sig -Shinnen I'm sure they won't ... Oops. -Capsicum
b1gs341	Posted - 2006.02.16 19:54:00 - [20] But what is their average DPS. Im trying to calculate how long I could tank them as apposed to how long it will take me to gank a cruiser or smaller. You must have had amazing skills to kill another BC while tanking the guns.
bundy bear	Posted - 2006.02.17 03:36:00 - [21] Sentris dont do as much damage as everyone thinks. My megathron can sit in range of sentries shooting me for about 15-20 seconds with nothing but a med rep going and get out with about half to a third armor left. I would say he can take the fire of the sentries for a good 30-45 seconds without running into any major problems at all. If he is alligned to warp and has the right hardeners on he should be able to gank any indy or light cruiser with enough time to get out easily.
Alabaster Plate	Posted - 2006.02.17 09:23:00 - [22] Originally by: b1gs341 But what is their average DPS. Im trying to calculate how long I could tank them as apposed to how long it will take me to gank a cruiser or smaller. You must have had amazing skills to kill another BC while tanking the guns. IIRC (and I probably don't) it's about 150/170 DPS per gun. All types of damage. Want a setup? fit pure gank and then leg it, leave the can til later, or get a mate to collect for you.
