In my opinion the main problem with eve is the overwhelming amount of modules you can fit on your ship.
Every vetaran here agree that fitting is way more important then skill points. But what fitting to use..and when. this is a big matter to me, I ve been playing eve for some time, though lately I only played around 10 hours a week (busy schedule).
The main probleme is simply fitting properly for what to do, npc mission, well we need to tank for X type of dmg depending what npc your fighting. Anyways im just ranting.. but I never know if I fitted my ship correctly..
I ve read every fitting thread on the forums, and some of them just dont work (post rmr). And still I feel like im lacking a huge ammmount of knowledge.
thats was just a little rant

There is no 'correct' fitting. The best fitting is one that combines the advantages of your ships, your skills, the situation, and your understanding of how it all comes together.

Personally I'm more in favor of the "if you didn't explode, but there was a explosion, you fitted it correctly" approach but both work.
Getting good at fitting ships takes time, and some studying indeed. Most of it is gut feeling though cause whatever you fit, there's always something that can beat it. It's a important part of the equation, but what's even more important is knowing what your ship and fitting can and can NOT do. ~{When evil and strange get together anything is possible}~ A tool is only useless when you don't know how to use it. - ActiveX The grass is always greener on the other side. - JoCool |

There are a number of combinations which work well together, and cookie-cutter setups which are proven to be effective, but the truth is, the best way to learn Eve is not to be afraid to lose ships. Fit stuff to see how it does, experiment! You'll come up with some ****, and you'll come up with some gems. See what works for you. Try them out, don't be afraid to lose them. Its all a learning experience

Edited by: Tobizuru on 12/06/2006 18:25:59 Basically the various modules are there all to fit your taste. Do you like going REALLY fast? MWD. Do you like having limitless cap? CPR's & Cap Rechargers. Do you like Resistance? Hardners. Do you just like killing before getting killed? Combat Modules. Find your style of fighting and stick to it until you find something better. Or...just constantly browse the RMR Fittings in the Ships & Modules forum...

IMO if you don't use a calculater or 3rd party program when developing setups, you have no right to give fitting advice.
You don't have to be an EVE guru to develope good setups. Just open up the item database, bust out a calculator and start crunching numbers.
note: the ships and mods forum is great for getting setup ideas, but never use a setup from S&M without testing first. The vast majority of the setups on that either arn't optimised or are completely useless.
If you want more advance fitting advice send me an Eve-mail in game and i'll be happy to help you out. --------------------------------------------- I hear Linux can cure cancer and raise your sperm count. - Dionysus Davinci

To be quite honest, you have no right to give out setups that you don't personally fly unless you attach a disclaimer saying "This is a theoretical setup I just threw together in Quickfit, should work well" or "I've never flown X, but I think this would work" or anything else that makes it obvious its untested.
Experience > calculators tbh

Sorry I guess I wasn't clear on that point.
My intially design takes place on paper, after that I test it extensivly to make sure its realisticly viable. That way I can make sure its completely optimised. --------------------------------------------- I hear Linux can cure cancer and raise your sperm count. - Dionysus Davinci

Edited by: Shaarek on 12/06/2006 19:37:15 What Ive been doing up to know is fitting "average" When I tank, I tank for every dmg I dont put anything perticular because I dont know the typeof dmg ill need to sustain in any given situation (type of dmg/npc)
So I just do what I think i's the right setup. But If I say that I have 3 cap recharger on my bs and 4 1600 plates... Im sure lots of peeps would be OMG noob fit!
But considering my skills I just do what I can. Its just that there are so many modules, so many usefull things...I wouldnt want it anyother way, but the learning curve is extremly steep.

Most of people fit their ships as it should tank enemies forever. Most of time in pvp you never need your capacitor more than 5mn. A med cap booster (for a bs) can give you enough capacitor to tank, fire, and be nossed for almost 5mn. Plus you have 2 free med slots for additional defensive mods like EW, or target painters, tracking computers...
