That's quite true. The reason to go CS over boosting T3s in wormholes though is the fact that you usually don't warp off a camped hole to set up alive, spawning in decloakrange of the hole surrounded by 10-20 cruisers with mild dictorsupport/instalegions. "I honestly thought I was in lowsec"

About Nighthawk .. unless you want it for links it's not quite as good as Tengu in L4 missions. There are some PvE activities where it makes sense, but not solo and not in hi sec as far as I'm aware.
Tengu vs Nighthawk. Nighthawk has more buffer, less agility (and warp speed), one less rig slot. Damage wise Tengu wins unless you take into account drones so it really depends if what you are doing really benefits from flight of light drones. Tengu has less wasted volleys and substantially better range with missiles because of missile speed bonus. Both are confined to doing only kin damage most of the time. Tengu more so.
Tengu problem is that if you load it with 4x CN BCU's it's a bit too fragile to get away with it if someone takes note.
For links in shield PvE I personally would prefer usually Minmatar commands. Information warfare is not that useful for PvE usually.
I can and do fly both. Here, sanity... niiiice sanity, come to daddy... okay, that's a good sanity... *THWONK!* GOT the bastard. |

They all need more CPU. If ccp wants peopel to use on grid links then fielding the links should not hamper the fitting capabilities of the ship. Now, to use thelink slots you have to make CPU usage sacrifices. Give each one around 30 tf more.
Also all of them could gain some warp speed boost, so that they can keep along a fleet. RIght now t3 are plain superior because of that. "If brute force does not solve your problem..... -áthen you are -ásurely not using enough!" |

This is their biggest drawback if you ask me.
In the current meta most doctrines are kept to cruiser size and below in order to be somewhat agile and fast (in and outside of warp). If you want to bring an ongrid boosting CS with your fleet you will be slowed down because of that choice. |

You can rig it / fit it to keep up with cruisers. But that is not without it's issues (like the CPU hit from rigs, for example) and most definitely is not a "solo" concept which OP seemed to be asking for.

Numbers are exagerated. Please, if you've poasted bloated numbers feel free to back them up w/ a fit or screenshot.
The OP clearly stated other than pvp. Most of you ninnies are off topic.
Now that I have my rude out of the way:
I haven't flown the claymore. All the rest have been pretty awesome. My likes for pve Nighthawk Sleipner Astarte Vulture Absolution
You have to read some of the above post carefully - they are a bit screwy.
The ASB sleipner that doesn't use cap? I'm pretty sure cap boosters are cap, and even if they aren't, when you are reloading they sure do. When you run out of boosters all together then you deplete your cap pretty quickly. PVP most fights are over before this comes up, but PVE it will come up. If you nerf your resists enough to fit 2 ASB then you'll burn through charges all the faster. Just saying some of the above advice is pretty sketchy - possibly borderline bad. |

Can't put a MMJD on a T3.
I'm still maintaining the non-use of Command Ships is because of the skill training time, and because all of the CS prerequisite skills are pretty much worthless on their own. You can get into a T3 in like a third of the time. In addition, Cruiser V is very useful as Eve is pretty much Cruisers Online right now, BC V doesn't do **** for your character on its own as the T1 battlecruisers are pretty much relegated to suicide ganking duty and nothing else. The Sleipnir and Eos are absolutely nuts in small gang combat, T3s don't even come close. |

It might be good to note that the ISK spent on training and shipping and implants for a Command Links toon it could be cheaper to put top end deadspace mods on your PVP toon's frigates those stats, jesus christ.

PvP... yet no point....?
Considering everything short of a battledship will be able to kite the majority of your dmg thats just a glorious killmail waiting to happen....
Small gang... its a bit slow, links would be more useful, and tbh what exactly do you expect it to do?
PvE....
A torp Phoon would prob have better application
....And you dont need that last implant, or the neuts...

As an Aside CS are very effective, SnuffBox obviously makes a lot of use out of the Abso (TIII Tank but with added Gank), the Sleipnir and Claymore are good solo options as well, there are a lot CS can do while also looking more engagable than a TIII gang and generally having more gank than a TIII gang. |

Yeah, My bad posted just before heading to bed. I put the wrong rig on in EVE-HQ Fitter, my bad. But you get the idea.
I sure would hope you don't attempt take this on a solo kill, as it works so much better with a Rapier partner and would just be useless alone. You guys are supposed to be the smart ones here right?
FYI, we used a T1-Rigged Version with great effect in the NEO Tournament so if you need to see how it works look up those videos.
To early to post with Quotes, but I think that covers everone's questions and comments.

Sleipnir
That's a sort of basic brawler fit that costs nothing. At that point you can do 2 things:
Spend a few hundre million on Faction mods, or buy a set of Low/Mid-Grade Crystals - it will cost < 700mil for the full set (and half of that is the Omega). Swallow a standard Blue Pill and you're tanking >2k dps on 1 overheated XLASB.
I'd say the main reason CS's aren't used is due to how slow they are - combined with eve's tendancy to blob and hot drop anything bigger than a cruisers it makes them an easy loss-mail. |

And what you gonna kill with that? So much tank.. so much fitting wasted on that. And your dps and cap are nothing amazing.. you are slow. At end any Hac or T3 will escape you.. and any battleship with a neut (And properly pvp fit) will defeat you.
Over tanking is a waste. Tyis ships cannot succeed (usually) in a fight that will deploy so much DPS on them anyway (because that means too many enemies tackling you and probably having logis). If you need to face so much incoming dps, then you wil be in a small gang with a logistic, otherwise your best bet is on a nano ship to try to separate enemies.
If you want to try the brute force Banzai approach, with low mobility and waste isk, then use a Hyperion. It is far better for the job. "If brute force does not solve your problem..... -áthen you are -ásurely not using enough!" |

You are talking about text-book hi-sec war stuff. Hyperions are great for jumping into losec camps 1v10 but im afraid we don't all have stations we can sit on and de-aggress when the carebears get the numbers advantage. And that fit doesn't give a **** about neuts. 2 Small nos keeps hardeners and tackle running under neut pressure (small nos for the fast cycle time Vs heavy neuts... huehuehue?)
So while you spooge over the 700DPS your kiting cruiser does, please take into account this ship fights <5KM so it's effective damage is better than your applied damage 90% into falloff. |

Well thanks for thinking I am awesome, but really anyone with 5 minutes and a fitting tool can make extreme examples of Tank, DPS or Speed.
My post wasn't to make you or your wallet feel inferior it was an answer to Alexa Coates request for what fit I based those numbers on, I wasn't going to reply to your sarcastic remark at all hence why I didn't quote you in the post.
And as a final remark, when I do use this for PVE (Epic Arcs and LVL4's, with a slightly different setup) I might need one or two cycles from the ASB to complete most any mission. So for PVE it works very well if you like the 'get up close and brawl' or have spawns that land on top of you.

I am looking to use it however, without putting a 1+invuln on it, or using a 500mil+ clone. |
