Tanaka Nari	Posted - 2006.04.16 23:45:00 - [1] I can't believe there is no thread on fitting the Nighthawk. Maybe they have just dropped off the radar, but there was no thread linked in the RMR ship setups, so here we go... Highs: 6x Heavy Missile Launcher II, 1x medium Nos or gang assist mod Meds: Large shield booster II, 1 Photon Scattering II, 1 Invul field II, 1 Shield Boost Amp + 1 med slot to have fun with (usually AB for me). Lows: Power Diag II and Ballistic control II mixed to taste. I prefer 3/2 for most situations. Drones: usually 5 lights for me The spare medium slot can be used for more tank (another hardener, another amp), speed (T2 AB), or EW. Or whatever else tickles your fancy. I **** you not, this is the ultimate lvl 4 mission running ship... can tank quite well and does very reasonable damage from up to 70km or so. I usually don't need to change to specific hardeners either.
Tousaka Langley	Posted - 2006.04.16 23:54:00 - [2] Only 60 km? I find the largest flaw with this ship (besides low DPS) is that it's targetting range is more limited then actual missile travel, so I would replace one low slot with a sensor booster.
Jin Entres	Posted - 2006.04.17 00:07:00 - [3] Originally by: Tousaka Langley ...I would replace one low slot with a sensor booster. cough they go in midslots cough I hear passive tank works great on NH. Hardeners / inv. fields and large extenders should do it.

000Hunter000	Posted - 2006.04.30 16:34:00 - [7] hm sofar that sounds like the setup i used naturally... but wouldn't it still be better to use specific hardners if u know which npc's ur up against and create an even better tank? Now if only they would make T2 missiles (a lot) cheaper
Tobiron	Posted - 2006.05.04 11:19:00 - [8] Nighthawk setup Highs û 6 Heavy Tech II missile launchers, 1 Gang mod of choice Meds û Gistii Type A Small SB, large shield extender II, 3 x Invul IIs Lows û 3 Ballistc Control IIs, 2 Power diag IIs Drones û 5 Tech II light drones for PvE frigs, 5 Light ECM drones for PvP ItÆs a good tank and gives max damage but could only provide support in PvP. But I suppose thatÆs the point in these ships really. It can take any kind of PvE spawn (so far) and might be good enough for harder Level IVs.
Double TaP	Posted - 2006.05.07 03:17:00 - [9] Edited by: Double TaP on 07/05/2006 03:18:16 High: 6 Heavy Launchers Med: 3 Tech 2 Large Shield Extenders 2 Race Specific Hardeners, or 1 EM and 1 Invulni Field Low: 3-4 PDS II 1-2 BCU II Edit: That is for pve. PvP setups are up to the pilot, but heed this warning: The ship is a great ship, but it is a gang warfare ship, not a solo pwnmobile for 1 on 1's. Quote Me!
Double TaP	Posted - 2006.05.28 06:13:00 - [10] I need some creative ideas for this ship. So bump. Looking for some pvp ideas.
Spiff Jones	Posted - 2006.06.12 01:21:00 - [11] i'm thinkin about switching my npc ship from raven to the nighthawk, but i'm not sure how effective it will be... wondering what others haffta say before i drop a load of isk on one... i'm most interested to know if you think it can solo an 8/10 complex...
Gun Kata	Posted - 2006.06.12 08:52:00 - [12] I use a Nighthawk to solo level 4 missions. Sad I know, but I paid for the ship and I can do as I like with it. My setup for missions: 6 x Heavy Launcher II, Med Nos Gist B large shield booster, DG amp, ABII, race specific Gist B hardeners (or tech 2 mods to keep cost down). 3 x PDU2's, 2 x T2 Ballistics I can't remember what resists (90's or just under for Th and KN) or shield HP but I get 316.5 shield for 84.5 cap every 4 seconds(going from memory so I may be slighty out on the numbers). I carry 2 medium and 1 light drone. The missions are mainly against Guristas so the Scourge missiles work well here. Level 4's are fairly straight forward as long as you tank right. I have lost a Nighthawk in the bonus level of Angel Extravaganza as I tanked wrong and got a bit too***y - you live and learn "Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them, I don't give a f* how crazy they are."

I notice that Tobiron's setup had 3 x BCU II, he's probably countered the DPS by using 3 where as your using 1. Out of interest though did you go for 4 x PDS II so you can keep the tank running non stop? Cheers "Now you see me, now you don't!"
Maric	Posted - 2006.06.13 08:09:00 - [17] DPS of Nighthawk can be greatly improuved by using T2 Scourge Fury misiles. Those misiles gimp cap recharge rate, but since Nighthawk can do pasive tanke easyly, it is not an issue.

Maybe if i change active to passive tanking and drop 2 bcu . i would install 2 ballistics to increase damage. --------------------------------------------> Eve is all about fun, fun and more fun.

OscarSupra	Posted - 2006.06.14 09:13:00 - [19] I'm just about to start the level 4's and I have to decide if I'm going for the Raven or the Nighthawk. Since I've been using a Ferox for all my level 3's and I really like the ship so the idea of a NH is tempting. I see most of you are using a active tank, in my ferox I've used a passive. I was thinking about this setup: High: 6x Heavy Missile Launcher II, 1 medium Nos Meds: 2x Large Shield Extender II, 2x Race specific Hardener II, and something fun like AB or something. Maybe a EM hardener. Lows: 3x BCU II, 2x Shield Power Relays Since I'm not flying the ship I think you guys will have something to say about this setup so shoot! I'm not taking any responsibility for the grammar in this post!
Calprimus	Posted - 2006.06.14 09:39:00 - [20] For Lv 4 a passive tank won't work well anymore. Damage is much higher and you need something to "refresh" your shield. Highs û 6 Heavy Tech II missile launchers, Meds û Gistii Type A Small SB, DG shield amp (37%) large shield extender II, 2 x Invul IIs Lows û 3 Ballistc Control IIs, 2 Power diag IIs. This is for general non Giurista mission. In case of Giurista, 2x Ballistic II For the hardest ones, like Enemy Abound 1/5, double Gistii type A, and drop 1 Hardner. The only problem is the lenght of the mission. Killing BS from 500K up take a while. But on the other side you have a shield almost always at 100%. Even under fire of 4 BS, 8 Cruisers and 4 frigs. To be honest, with good skills and the above set up, this is the perfect Lv4 mission grinding ship.
SavageThrash	Posted - 2006.06.14 11:17:00 - [21] PVP setup (which for the recored still isnt as goo das a sleip tanking wise :( ) Highs 6 heavy t2, 1 small nos t2 Medium Gisti x type large or faction booster 1 invul t2 1 em t2 boost amp electrochemical cap injector lows 3 bcu 1 pdu 1 dmg control Still dont find it fair that a sleip can fit an xl booster with its 37.5% boost bonus. Its just rediculose, the extra res u get on the nighthawk cant equal 1500 boost versus 500. Sadly when my nh loses its tank it usually still has tons of cap.
stainage	Posted - 2006.06.16 13:39:00 - [22] 6x Heavy Missile Launcher 2's 1x Medium Nos t2 1x Medium Shield Booster 2 1x Em hardener t2 1x Exp Hardener t2 2x Invuls t2 1x Best Damage Control 4x Power Diags 5x Warrior 2s Tanks like a beast
Evelyn Exe	Posted - 2006.06.16 20:00:00 - [23] How come none of the pvp set-ups include a gang assist module?
FFGR	Posted - 2006.06.16 23:21:00 - [24] Originally by: Evelyn Exe How come none of the pvp set-ups include a gang assist module? because 90% of the people that trained for the t2 BC did it just for the added damage/tankability and they don't want to train up gang modules. That, and Nighthawk has some problems with PG if you go for a passive tank (least pg of all the BCs since it is a missile boat) _____________________________ siggys v. 0.5
Kelgen Thann	Posted - 2006.06.17 00:47:00 - [25] I would fit 6 heavy laucnher 2's 1 medium unstable energy neut. 1 T2 em hardner 1 Tw invuln field. Rest Large shield extenders Lows I would fit 1 BCM, 2 pdu's 1 shield power relay Drones I would fit light drones, and if you are in PvP sensor damper and target painter drones. The passive tank makes it so you do not need cap, and a shield power relay gives a great bonus to shield recharge.
Duncan Storne	Posted - 2006.06.17 01:54:00 - [26] Isn't the damage on 6 Heavy Launchers a bit low for Lv4 missions?
Safid Gorbet	Posted - 2006.06.24 15:02:00 - [27] Hi's: 6x Heavy launcher II's 1x Medium NOS II Med: Large shiled Booster II Photon scattering field II 2x Invul field II's Shield booster amp II lows: 4x PDU II's Ballistic control mod II. Drones 5x warrior II's or 5 small webber drones. This set up will run forever even if you dont use the NOS. With the ship fitter tool I turned the cap tester off after a simulated 30 min of running the hardeners and booster nonstop and the cap never dropped below 53%. Obviously the cap issue wiull change with T2 missiles but then you can swap the shield booster with a cap injector.
Acarion Sphinx	Posted - 2006.06.27 11:47:00 - [28] Edited by: Acarion Sphinx on 27/06/2006 11:50:12 LvL 4 Mission grinder NightHawk for the lazy. Played around with Q-fit and came out with this: Hi: 6x Hvy Missile Launcher II 1x Tractor Beam Med: 2x Invulnerability Field II 1x Photon Scattering Field II 2x Gistii A-type small shield booster Low: 5x Ballistic Control System II Scourge missile damage on ships with 100+ sig radius should be around 366 DPS (329 DPS with 4 BCS). Tank should run indef at 65-70% with 79% 84% 85% 88% resists. Max shield boost is 71 HP per sec (at max regen point wich is somewhere at 30-40% shield). Skills: Command ships lvl 4 Energy systems operation lvl 4 Energy management lvl 4 Hvy missile specialisation lvl 4 Missile support skills at lvl 4
Wrok Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.17 22:35:00 - [29] why fitt the bottoms with 4 bcu's when 3 would be the limit?
Xendie	Posted - 2006.07.17 22:40:00 - [30] Originally by: Tousaka Langley Only 60 km? I find the largest flaw with this ship (besides low DPS) is that it's targetting range is more limited then actual missile travel, so I would replace one low slot with a sensor booster. have you looked at the targeting range of all the command ships? they are all around 50k so it is nothing wrong with it as it is in line with the other command ships. Originally by: F'nog This would be great, because lag is not at all a problem currently.
