Viscount Hood British Space Corporation	Posted - 2007.02.17 11:21:00 - [211] There's someone posted above who has blasters on a Ferox. Does this work? Its a tempting setup to fit blasters. I have such probelms trying to get my Ferox to deal decent damage with 250mm rails and keep a decent shield tank. But fitting blasters to me means you would need a mwd and nano's to get into range. The Ferox is so slow and maneuverability sucks. The range bonus and blasters may help, but not by much. I also have major powergrid problems, because of which i'm never entirely happy with my setup. My normal setup includes are 5 x rails and 2 x med nos + a large shield booster. Medium shield boosters just don't do enough. Ideally I think the ship should have 6 gun slots and a bit more PG. ------------------------------------------------
Paratus Adama 23rd Armor	Posted - 2007.02.18 22:48:00 - [212] Edited by: Paratus Adama on 18/02/2007 22:53:23 Some interesting ideas here. As mentioned before, the Ferox can be a good PvP ship in a gang, but not so good in solo PvP. It's great for ratting, however. The problem is mostly due to the tradeoff between tank/ECM/gank. You can only do two well, but not all three. I have a setup that I use when ratting in 0.0 with the possibility of sudden PvP if I need to jump into a small-medium system defense gang that has jammers and scrammers. I found that this provides a fair balance to do both without having to return to station to refit. Of course, it's also based upon my specific SP. Your load-out preference may differ. It can be used for solo PvP, but you will run the high risk of being scrammed a/o jammed. It will also have a hard time hitting fast-moving ships. Also, this setup favors the use of missiles, as I have about double the amount of Missile SP vs Gunnery SP. If you have really good Gunnery SP, favor the 250mm Prototype Gauss Guns instead of missiles. The Ferox's Hybred bonus will help it's range and make it more of a sniper. However, It's lack of speed makes it difficult to maintain distance. That's why it's better suited for a gang role. Anyways, here's the PvP setup... HIGHS: "Arbalest" HML x5 (Scourge HM), 250mm Prototype Gauss Gun x1, E50 Prototype Energy Vampire. MIDS: Large F-S9 Regolith Shield Induction x2, Heat Dissipation II, Ballistic Deflection II, V-M15 Braced Multispectral Shield Matrix x1. LOWS: Mark I Generator Refitting: Diagnostic System x3, Warded Gravimetric Backup Cluster I. With my present SP, I end up with 12885 shield hp with a regen of 41.51 and em/ex/k/t resists of 40/76/83/77. Cap regen of 20.32/s with only 8/s needed. If a small target gets within 12k of me, I NOS them for another 6 Cap/s and send out my drones. Against a Dread Guristas Usurper in 0.0, I can dish out 3 times it's damage and my shield tank never drops below 95%. During one solo PvP fight against a Hurricane, I poped him in about 2 mins from 12k out, while he never got more then 50% of my shield (he had about the same amount of time in game as me). Comments/suggestions are welcome.
Fluffernator	Posted - 2007.02.19 03:11:00 - [213] Intersting ferox story. It pains me that people still use a ferox with missles though. I understand you missle speced, thats a good reason to use missles. But seriously, fly a drake if you want to use missles. You will get much better results. Ferox is meant as a rail sniper and should be used as such.
Viscount Hood British Space Corporation	Posted - 2007.02.19 13:48:00 - [214] I'd agree with all points above. After you've piloted a Drake there's no point fitting missiles to a Ferox. It s gun boat. Good for gangs, solo more often than not your gona die, and you have to keep to targets of your size or below. Its damage/range or tank. I try and do both, but is a struggle. The Drake on the other hand.... ------------------------------------------------
Major Stuart Caldari Maelstrom Crew	Posted - 2007.02.27 17:04:00 - [215] Edited by: Major Stuart on 27/02/2007 17:01:36 Could someone tell me a good blaster and a good missile set up (small gang work but capable of surviving in solo) Ive read a few pages but i didnt see any blaster set ups or small gang set ups.
craig0ss2	Posted - 2007.03.03 19:43:00 - [216] hi my ferrox setup is as folows 5 t2 neutron blasters 2 med nos microwarp 1 t2 extender (the biggest u can on depending on skills etc) 1 hardeners (passive) 1 invulfield 1 web 3 shield rigs for each res 3 t2 mac stabs 1 t2 PDU microwarp in with the damage mod on those blastes and say bye bye
Johlie Caldari Rampage Eternal Ka-Tet	Posted - 2007.03.07 17:08:00 - [217] Does anyone have any good hybrid ferrox setups. All I'm seeing are missle setups. I can't believe people still use missles on this thing. ------------------------- -=If I win I can't be stopped! If I lose I shall be dead.=-
alexreborn	Posted - 2007.03.15 16:27:00 - [218] Edited by: alexreborn on 15/03/2007 16:24:11 I would think something to the effect of 5x rail guns for some sniping would be ideal for the ferox.. or 5x blasters... with the blaster set up and bc at 4/5 u can hit at 15km+. Get some nos, shield boost, maybe a cap booster, a mwd, a warp jammer, 3x mag stabilizers, maybe a pdu, and youre set. Not only that u get the added 20 to 25% shield resist bonus. Very good for up and close. I find the ferox to be more of a gank setup then a tank setup. but then agian im a newb

I can't believe people still use missles on this thing. Thats cos missiles are cool but wouldnt you just swap the missiles for rails/blasters and the BCU's for heat sinks (or what ever rails/blasters use, im too use to minmatar now i forget ) That's a Templar, an Amarr fighter. It is a combat drone used by carriers.
Lacihtenu	Posted - 2007.03.16 17:07:00 - [220] Edited by: Lacihtenu on 16/03/2007 17:05:40 Edited by: Lacihtenu on 16/03/2007 17:03:51 Man. I thought. "Cool, a Ferox thread. Now I can learn how to equip mine since I am lost as to what works for what situation." But after coming in here and "Painfully" reading through 8 pages, I must say that I am even more confused than when I started reading this thread. First off, most of you are using the abbreviated jargon. Might as well be speaking cantonese to me lol. And here, just yesterday, I switched out all my equipment from mining boredom, to Ratting hunting. I thought I did pretty good, and felt good about my decisions...but now after coming here, I see just how NOOBISH I still am. I thought what I had may be ok for PvP as well (If forced into the situation prematurely), but apparently, I'd just be a free pop shot target. As I said, I don't know the technical mumbo jumbo names and such, but from what I can remember from what is on it currently. All of the following is T1 crap btw. I played for 3 months a bit over a year ago, and just recently reactivated this account. I had lost a Ferox when I first played, and don't want to repeat that. Although, being an idiot and going to .4 alone was a major cause of it. Anyways... High: X2 250mm Railguns X1 200MM Railgun X2 Haevy Missle Launchers Med: Webber Warp Disruptor Targeting Disruptor 10MN AB? Low: X2 Stabs X1 PCU ??? Can't recall everything right off hand. But I'm sure alot of you wil laugh at my complete ignorance to the inner workings of this game still. Despite the character being over 10 months old, I REALLY only have a bit over 3 months actual playtime. I had a friend who played for quite some time that had quit and given me all his ISK. Hence why I was able to get a 2nd Ferox. But if this one goes "pop", I'm back in the poor house. Hence why I will NPC rat until I figure out what I am doing before I even try low sec.
Tregaron Minmatar Death Monkey's With Knives Freelancer Alliance	Posted - 2007.03.27 13:29:00 - [221] i got a free ferox for pvp i use my drake for other stuff......... going to use it to camp a gate...... 5x heavy assault t2 (i get 25km range) 2x med nos t2 2x large shield ext t2 2x inv t2 1x shield recharger t2 2x spr t2 2x pdu t2 5x light drones t2 what you all think.
Barbaro55a	Posted - 2007.03.28 15:46:00 - [222] Why are you fitting Missiles?!?! Tregaron, your gunnery skills are a lot better than your missile!1,025,328 SP in gunnery (allthough only small hybrid turrets), and 700k SP in missiles. ineve.net I use the ferox for rats, but thats only cos i seem to only get drones, and one large smart bomb sorts them out before my turrets could lock on!
Keshein	Posted - 2007.04.06 19:41:00 - [223] Edited by: Keshein on 06/04/2007 19:38:24 Originally by: Johlie Does anyone have any good hybrid ferrox setups. All I'm seeing are missle setups. I can't believe people still use missles on this thing. Since most folks that fly it are Caldari, they tend to all use missiles. A lot of Caldari folks don't train gun skills initially because missiles are so much easier to use and take less time to train overall to work effectively. Personally, I'd probably go with the rails/blasters setup since thats where the bonuses are.

Cpt Fina Shih Yang Tong	Posted - 2007.04.23 13:18:00 - [228] How about 2x webs and engagement from 9k with HAMS?
gangstaaaaaa	Posted - 2007.04.26 01:15:00 - [229] Originally by: smallgreenblur The ferrox is an ew boat, make the most of it. For solo pvp i like: 5 heavy launchers, 2 nos mwd, web, scram, 2x multispec, small armor rep, 2 x bcu, 800mm plate. Can take on a hac with ease. By the time they get through your shield resists (bc 5 ftw) and find out you've got a plate on they are usually diving in for the kill, at which point you switch on the web and jammers, and laugh horribly as you slowly kill them. sgb Funny as hell

I'm thinking something in line with this using medium blasters, a webber instead of a scammer, and an MWD in place of the shield charger. For a Tech I Blasterox, what ammunition would you all use? I'm currently packing antimatter while using a webber and an MWD to close range fast for PvE tackling (frigates that tend to outrun your range if you're lacking excessive speed). This is my sig, there are many others just like it. With me, my sig is worthless. Without (or with even) my sig, I am worthless...
Max Manlove Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.04.26 12:56:00 - [233] For a blasterox, you will want to pack some null ammo along with your void and antimatter. It works quite well with the optimal bonus of the ship. Also, you want to fit the largest blasters you can after your tank is in place (if any), not for the damage, but for the range. Damage control and two large shield extenders, plus some PDU will make for a decent buffer tank while your two nos and blasters deal with the enemy's tank. 5 light drones of choice (I like ECM drones) is just gravy. ♥♥♥ Protecting Your Right To Love Thy Neighbor ♥♥♥
