Silane Daktor	Posted - 2006.07.11 10:11:00 - [1] General consensus... How many points of scramble do you fit if solo pirating? Do you go for: 1. I need to catch them quick, so a 20km 1 pointer will do 2. I got an MWD so will zoom to 7.5km and therefore fit a 2 pointer 3. I got loads of mid slots, so fit a 20km and 7.5km: lovely 3 points 4. another config Thankyou for your input
Alessia Karan	Posted - 2006.07.11 10:13:00 - [2] Are you trying to find out how many stabs you have to fit ? Sig must be under 24000 bytes - Cathath ([email protected])
Rikkard Strofeldt	Posted - 2006.07.11 10:14:00 - [3] 1km/s tankerax... 2 points. -- Descending into madness.
Silane Daktor	Posted - 2006.07.11 10:17:00 - [4] Edited by: Silane Daktor on 11/07/2006 10:21:03 Originally by: Alessia Karan Are you trying to find out how many stabs you have to fit ? No, I am a pirate also, albeit on a slow start trying to find belt targets. I solo pirate and have very few mid slots on my Rupture, so was wondering what better pirates than me do. Having said that, in retrospect, this may not be a very popular topic for people to answer... so I appreciate anyone's input
Riyal	Posted - 2006.07.11 10:29:00 - [5] Depends on the range of my guns, atm i'm using autocannons so its MWD and a 7.5 km one. If you're using a frigate you can catch all but the most paranoid and prepared belt ratter. If people have stabs fitted they usually have 2 of them so for solo work I just let them get away, I cant spare the slots to really pin someone down if i'm solo.
Nicholai Pestot	Posted - 2006.07.11 11:30:00 - [6] I either like to fit 1 or 3 points In my experiance if a person fits stabbs they will use 2, or a crazy un-beatable amount (when solo). 1 will catch anyone not using stabs, 3 will catch the majority of people that will use stabs. The 3 pointer also has the advantage of catching people that dont use stabs out to 20 km. I like having a 20km and a 7.5 km on my rax that uses light rails, as a webber is not so much of a necessity as when using blasters. ________________ What you do is you store up the rage, let it fester while you gain strength, then use it to gank those weaker than you... and so the circle of life is complete
Anglo	Posted - 2006.07.11 11:38:00 - [7] who cares... stabs are for pussies they die anyway
Tekka	Posted - 2006.07.11 12:06:00 - [8] I use a scorp, 16 point scramble. Armor tank. Cause Im awesome like that. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» This is a <24kb Sig. Awesome
Leilani Solaris	Posted - 2006.07.11 14:06:00 - [9] depends what ship im flying. Usually just 1 point but it's so damn annoying when they have stabs.
Arngorf	Posted - 2006.07.11 14:17:00 - [10] Depends... Small ship = Choice 2 Larger Ship = Choice 1 Larger ship (when im crazy too) = Choice 3 ________________________________________________ FORMER!!! I said FORMER Pirate...
Boonaki	Posted - 2006.07.11 14:33:00 - [11] Originally by: Tekka I use a scorp, 16 point scramble. Armor tank. Cause Im awesome like that. Had a target warp from a scorp that had 8 20k's on. The apoc had a shield tank, pulses, and all stabs. I cried myself to sleep that night. Fear the Ibis of doom!

I think his apoc probably killed itself due to the embarassment.
DarkElf	Posted - 2006.07.11 15:51:00 - [14] depends what ship i'm in and how many mids i can spare. I often fly my sac over zealot and fit +4 10km scram (2xTS scrams) and watch the buggers panic as they can't run away. i rarely go out with less than 3 points, too annoying when they run. DE
Verone	Posted - 2006.07.11 15:51:00 - [15] As many as my midslots will let me. Stab racking has become more widespread recently, sadly. VETO RECRUITMENT
Lisset	Posted - 2006.07.11 17:47:00 - [16] Originally by: Anglo who cares... stabs are for pussies they die anyway I dunno, I seem to survive pretty well in my shield-tanked phoon with 7 stabs.. granted, its pure flamebait, but you folks who feel its OK to take what's not yours feel its OK to stop people from warping, so I feel its OK for me to stop you from stopping me so that I can keep what rightfully belongs to me. I hardly see the problem.
Chode Rizoum	Posted - 2006.07.11 17:49:00 - [17] -3 but sadly i have to go -1 on my vagabond... on other ships i dont bother without -3
Durethia	Posted - 2006.07.11 18:24:00 - [18] Originally by: Lisset Originally by: Anglo who cares... stabs are for pussies they die anyway I dunno, I seem to survive pretty well in my shield-tanked phoon with 7 stabs.. granted, its pure flamebait, but you folks who feel its OK to take what's not yours feel its OK to stop people from warping, so I feel its OK for me to stop you from stopping me so that I can keep what rightfully belongs to me. I hardly see the problem. The problem isn't so simple. It's not even a matter of ownership and protection of property. I think there are ways to get out of a battle should you have second thoughts during the engagement. Like, ECM jamming. But, if you managed to jam your assaliant, instead of running you'd probably want to sit there and further take your chances huh?
Private Iron	Posted - 2006.07.11 18:40:00 - [19] I fit one warp disruptor on my vexor and just bump the hell out of them, it doesn't always work though... -----
Lisset	Posted - 2006.07.11 19:28:00 - [20] Originally by: Durethia Originally by: Lisset Originally by: Anglo who cares... stabs are for pussies they die anyway I dunno, I seem to survive pretty well in my shield-tanked phoon with 7 stabs.. granted, its pure flamebait, but you folks who feel its OK to take what's not yours feel its OK to stop people from warping, so I feel its OK for me to stop you from stopping me so that I can keep what rightfully belongs to me.

But, if you managed to jam your assaliant, instead of running you'd probably want to sit there and further take your chances huh? For me, ECM is out of the question, I shield tank, I need my mid-slots. Furthermore, I don't engage in hostile activities with others, If I am involved in hostilities with someone else, they started it, 100% of the time. The only thing I actively engage *first is NPC rats (belts/missions). When someone decides I'm their latest meal ticket, I go away, and they cry about it. Hence the reason I will never stop fitting 7 WCS either. To clarify, I do not stick around and fight even if I think I can win. Let's say its a rupture by itself locking onto my typhoon. I run away. Why? I'm not here to fight. People forcing me to fight is their own perrogative, but I will take whatever measures I need to that will eliminate their ability to force me to fight, or force me to do ANYTHING for that matter. Its just a shame the typhoon doesn't have 8 low slots.
tiller	Posted - 2006.07.11 19:36:00 - [21] I usually use 4 when targeting haulers... even better get a gang m8 to help and have 8 :-) Click me for Pirate Coalition Website of Gankage
Prestis	Posted - 2006.07.11 20:20:00 - [22] 3 points absolute bare minimum. I think fitting a pair of stabs on every ship you take to low-sec is now recommended in the tutorial or something. Everyone does it.
Golden Helmet	Posted - 2006.07.11 20:23:00 - [23] genraly just one point, but my cyclone did have a lovely 3 points... stab monkeys LOVED it Don't worry, your sig is safe...wait...oops. --Jorauk
Scoundrelus	Posted - 2006.07.11 20:41:00 - [24] Depends on who I'm fighting, if I'm planning on fighting pirates, I'll fit 1 point. If I plan on fighting Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate or some other stab monkey alliance, then I fit 4. ===============================================
Zoneh	Posted - 2006.07.11 21:12:00 - [25] -1 on all ships. Why you ask? Because if the target warps off, I can smack it on local. :P ___________________
Ed Gein	Posted - 2006.07.11 21:38:00 - [26] Originally by: Zoneh -1 on all ships. Why you ask? Because if the target warps off, I can smack it on local. :P seems reasonable
Olixia Castitatis	Posted - 2006.07.11 22:33:00 - [27] Only -1 for me. The stabbing is getting out of hand though - I'll probably have to move to -3 or -4 some time. Generally, I go out with a tackler when I can, though - I like using my midslots for fun things like cap boosters, sensor boosters and ewar, so I don't really want to have to waste 4 slots on warp scramblers. ----------------------- <Sig goes here>
Silane Daktor	Posted - 2006.07.12 06:48:00 - [28] Seems 3 points is the way to go, thanks all :) /me counts Rupture midslots. /me bursts into tears.

You'd probably be ok with just Web/AB/20km :) if they do warp away then oh wellz... Tho at your point in your pirating career, me having been there, you feel you should get a medal AND kill just for managing to scan them down >.< Gronsak is Tux's angry alt.

A medal would be nice though :)
Katsumoto	Posted - 2006.07.12 13:37:00 - [31] Pirating in a domi, 5 points. and people still warp out!!!! . "White light. Doo doo too doo. alcohol, alcohol, alcohol, white light!"

Had a target warp from a scorp that had 8 20k's on. The apoc had a shield tank, pulses, and all stabs. I cried myself to sleep that night. omg But then again, if someone was carrying expensive cargo, I can see the logic of why Apoc has 7 lowslots.
Rainbow Sunshine	Posted - 2006.07.12 19:42:00 - [33] Generally if I'm in a cruiser or bigger and without MWD I'll fit 2x 20k scrams. I'd rather fit those than 20k/web, as if they can move away fast enough having one point between 10km and 20km isn't going to help me much.
Valdir Mustafar	Posted - 2006.07.12 23:07:00 - [34] Originally by: Chode Rizoum -3 but sadly i have to go -1 on my vagabond... on other ships i dont bother without -3 -3 is the golden number ------------------------------------------------ Arr! I stab at thee
Nyphur	Posted - 2006.07.13 10:03:00 - [35] I see a lot of 3s but players are clueing in on fitting stabs and generally fit 2 or 3 stabs. For a good chance of scrambling, you really need to fit 4 these days. Eve-Tanking.com - For tanking spreadsheet and resources.

Semkhet	Posted - 2006.07.13 11:04:00 - [38] Usually 2x +2 on my Pilgrim. But up to 4x +2 when going against snipers, provided they stay in place the 15-20 minutes it takes me to reach them

That would be fun, I really looking forward to those nice smackmails. have phun out there.
Zibun Ionic	Posted - 2006.07.13 12:03:00 - [40] 0 points for I gank before they warp. Yarr! forgive our sins that we are about to commit
JoeT	Posted - 2006.07.13 12:06:00 - [41] Small fast ship with oddles of firepower (inty 4tw) and 2points --- Murder Murder, yes indeed, K-I-L-L-I-N-G
Mrmuttley	Posted - 2006.07.13 12:32:00 - [42] Originally by: Celeste Storm I absolutly agree! I give a damn f* about those whining pirates. WTB WCS II ftw! 14points of wc str. That would be fun, I really looking forward to those nice smackmails. have phun out there. I can confirm that Celeste Storm was flying a stabbed Typhoon yesterday ratting in Aridia but to be fair I only had 1 20 KM on my Tempest so I have no idea how many of her lowslots were filled with WCS. Truth to tell I rarely fit more that 2 points unless its specifically a tackler ship in a gang. After all if someone is that keen to get away I'll simply go and look for softer targets. They're normally around somewhere. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am Dyslexic of Borg. Your ass will be laminated. Originally by:** Rod Blaine Eve is not supposed to be fair

Sure, go on, buy it and be my guest. Interdiction Spheres have been introduced exactly to cope with people like you, and nowadays most decent gangs integrate at least one dictor. It's just a shame I can't use them in Empire. Have phun out there
Darius Falc	Posted - 2006.07.13 15:37:00 - [44] I always go for 1 20K. If someone's going to have stabs they'll pretty much always have 2 as conventional wisdom is that you have to fit 2 stabs. This way I scram at 20 K and don't need to hulk my beheamoth of a battleship arse in to 7.5 K. If I'm in a domi or a mega then I like to have plenty of slots free to fit web, sensor booster and ecm. You can't kill what you can't target. DF.
