Edited by: Wizie on 05/04/2006 12:27:19 Wow, didn't expect so many guys to respond. I guess people really like Vagabonds and Temepsts :D
Masta - Damnit, I have no other source to host this file.. Might try getting my bros school server to put it up for a day or two.
Insane Asy - Thanks for watching... do I know you?
Dracolich and Equinox - Its amazing how much a Vagabond can change your gameplay style... and watching the right ppl fly one (for which I have to thank Dirtball). And yeah... damn Autopilot. But how often do you get a guy in 0.3 in a belt actually wait for you to come back and fight ya? ![Razz](/images/icon_razz.gif)
Ikvar - I definitely recommend a Vagabond.. I know how you feel.. A zealot just doesn't compare for the kind of things you could do on this ship.
Sun Ra - Glad you liked it, I thought you would watch it.. being a Tempest pilot :) I keep tabs (used to) on your killboards to see what you guys kill weekly. I'm working on getting more stuff to make a vid.
KayaYautja - Yeah its sped up approx 2x. Trust me, if I showed those fights at regular pace you would all just start forwarding through it. I did :p
Sephirot - Glad you liked it Gimme faction stuff free :p
Evil Thug - Hehe, so you noticed the scanning thing :p Yeah its important, but I forgot that I had 30 deg scan set and was scanning at the wrong direction... I did scan again (the vid doesnt show about a minute of the fight)... I finally left when a Zealot and Tempest came into the gate. I did get some of the stuff from the cans and blew up the rest. About 2000 spike ammo and some tech II shield extenders/boosters... And yeah Vagas cost way too much now.
Also - about the first Tempest fight setup, I was actually testing the dual 425 / MWD setup before taking it into 0.0. With my earlier experience fighting in a rax, I realised that quite a few people in low sec empire fit just 1 stab to make it outta belts, even more so with the introduction of warp jamming npcs. However, 2 pts is pointless on a Tempest, as that last mid slot is SO important for other things. So, I removed it as soon as I ventured into 0.0 Some people offer Afterburner AC setups, which I'm against because if you are solo, that MWD will save your life (at times). I have made it out of gatecamps mainly because of that MWD. Got engaged by 5 BS tanking sentries, MWD 20K away and warped out in 40% armor. 2inties frigs and 2 Dominixes (was jammed), jumped out in ~80% structure. Close range autopest are fine without MWD if you are in groups. But otherwise, I wouldnt be found close to one.

Yes!!
As being a pilot without any other skill other than minnie i found this a real treat! Against the never ending blasterthron movies (don't get me wrong i love them)
I got goosebumps on how textbook some fights were, esp the vaga at the start, that was class!

I orbit targets, specially when I have more ships (mainly support on scan). Learnt this the hard way. Keeping in motion lets me burn out with mwd on if I get targets coming in on scanner. Being up and close to a BS and support warps in leaves too much to question with regards to will I be able to align and warp or align and get lower transversal on a cruiser.. or get out of 20K scram range of the main target. In that system at the time there were lots of BS on scan (though some at POS) and a Zealot and Prophecy. Prophecy got out (was done after FRAPS he warped in after the Zealot). But its just to remain safe. Dual 425 dont miss much against BS.. specially out in low falloff range.
Thanks for watching Erpy.

i whould still not orbit a raven.
there will always be misses at orbit speed.
a 0 transversial will still insure that 100 % hits comes in.
but ofc if hostiles near by. its always good to be paranoid..

Edited by: Koronos on 05/04/2006 21:16:01 First off, SWEEEEEEET. Loved it.
Now, I'm certainly not the pilot you are, nor many of these responders, but I kept yellin' atcha (virtually of course) to launch yer drones against teh blackbird before you got jammed.
Heat of the moment I know, but the second time around? after you came so close to popping it on the first pass the first time around.
Anyway, its just the fact that the action is so hot that I noticed that.

I was also wondering about the drones, but awesome video nonetheless. The tempest footage was also cool. It's nice to see the ship benefit so much from the new passive tanking skills in short range combat, especially after limiting its potential long range alpha strike via the new stacking penalties. Music was also cool and speeding up the action matched it well.
It has also come to my attention that less and less vagabonds fit a web nowadays, warrior IIs and 220s generally being sufficient for anti-frigate work.
I have a small question though, was that a medium shield booster on the vagabond or a small gistii one? I generally fit a second shield extender instead of a booster, simply because the medium booster drains a lot of cap for my taste. The dual extender setup needs a PDU II and advanced weapon upgrades lvl5,but gets the ship to around 7k shields.
Then it's a case of killing the target(s) before getting below 30% shields. I would love to have some form of semi-sustainable active tank, but we can't have it all for the sake of balance.

Thanks for posting Sarmaul.. WTF happened to your char?
About the drones Kronos/BlackDog, often times I forget completely that the Vaga comes with drones... and that is something I need to fix :p. However, in that fight... I had to warp out once, and generally when I'm expecting to warp in a fight, I dont bother releasing my drones. That BB pilot was smart and had a 1600 plate one (plates on jamming ships are a good thing).
As for the booster question, it was a medium shield booster. I am not rich, nor am I poor, but what I am is a cheapskate . I have a couple of gistii shield boosters lying around and do use them when I'm flying with a few friends. However when solo, I just fit a medium shield booster II or 2 extenders. The issue with the 2 extenders is that I have to fit a PDS II, AND have to downgrade to a medium diminishing nos (which isnt a big deal). The other issue with a dual extender setup is passive shield recharge is a pain, and if you/I have to run from a fight, means I'm out for quite a bit.
I have been flying this Vaga for about 4 months now. And for the last 2 months the setup hasnt changed.

Sweet, thanks for the reply mate...You will make me change my setup yet again,but thanks anyway ![Laughing](/images/icon_lol.gif)
Seriously,i'm not a very active player but whenever i'm on i fly vagabonds almost exclusively. Been having a blast with the ship for the past 9 months, but everytime i get back to the game after 2-3 weeks of doing RL stuff i end up changing my setups ![Embarassed](/images/icon_redface.gif)
Again, really nice video, and the quality was excellent during most of it.

Nice vid wiz, noticed u skipted out on the giisti i prefer the duel extender but tbh u can see the uses when fighting drone ships(or ships drones).
Liked the tempest action interesting to see u fit 425's instead of the 650 approach, it's true what u say about the playing style and how it changes,theres so many things u can do in a vaga that no other heavy assult could do.
overall nice one, already knew it was gonna be good form the preveiw one.![Very Happy](/images/icon_biggrin.gif)
