Just a poll, to satisfy my odd curiosity.
Name your top 5 most feared Battleships in order, and why. (if you feel like extra credit)

1.Tempest
Don't fear any else for a 1vs1. If they are 2 or more you can add:
2. Apocalypse
3. Megathron
4. Scorp
5. Raven

Which ship you fear depends very much on which ship you're in yourself. And what modules/skillpoints you have...
I'm not gonna give away my setup

Tempest can actually be pretty mean...
Scorpion, as ive always said, is not to be feared as a killer... It can make anybody impotent, but it cant necessarily kill them.
"Fear" would have to go to a well-arranged Raven... Apoc if i was being dumb.

Well-arranged and well-piloted.
Takes a bit of skill to time the missiles so they don't explode each other up.
Go Caldari!

I personally cant imagine a megathron being fear inducing. I will pilot one as my skills have sent me down that path, but currently I would think the fear factor has the Raven on top because of the shear number of missiles, Apoc second because of the uber tachyons, then tempest because with a good setup it pwns.
Whats so special about a megathron? 425's are crap, its drone bay is nothing special, and it has two missile hard points. It sure does look pretty though.

<Muaddid> Q: When will sentry gun and station and similar construction pods be introduced on the market?
<Hellmar> we have various player owned entities already implemented. Sentry guns, power/shield generators, field repair mini-stations, mobile refineries. We are still working out the last tidbits of how they can be over taken, what is the penalty of having a sentry gun kill a n00b etc. and we have been a bit busy with plugging the holes that people have found.I would say that you'd start to see these items on the market in about 2-3 weeks, very expensive to begin with |

1. Raven - Dishes out a lot of pain.
2. Scorpion - Should have called it the spider.
3. Apocalypse - Like being hit by Mike Tyson.
4. Tempest - Unknown quantity.
5. Armageddon - Surprisingly punchy like its big bro.

lol Stav, didn't you say the Raven was a piece of Caldari crap after you lost your Raven?
Well all lvl 2 battleships are good. As long as you "know yourself and your enemy". Someone who don't can have his ass handed to him by a "useless armageddon".

#1: Tempest.
It has the most versitility, and since you can not know what to expect, fear it.
Either free the slaves or we will come and get them.

no, I said it was a piece of crap in fleet battles. 1vs1 its best ship in game.
We live and learn I suppose but I'll teach you something for free...
Raven has insane shields and launchers, even if its jammed down, u just switch to cruise fof missiles and own your opponent in a 1vs1. Its just purely unbeatable.
However in a fleet battle, missiles are slow to deal damage and thus kill enemy ships (compared to guns that is) also they havee a tendancy to get detonated off of everyone elses missiles resulting in you laying the smack down on a whole pile of nothing.
Scorpion is to be feared in 1vs1 simply cos its usually setup for jamming or tanked to **** with hardeners, either way its a tough cookie to ***** but still dies to raven.
Dominix is ok because its quite versatile, it can deal alot of damage and still jam u as well, but most people wont risk giving over 4/5 medium slots to jammers so they are usually ok to engage 1vs1.
Megathron is ****e, tempest is crap, typhoon is rubbish, arma is now nothing compared to apoc.
The simple fact is you can either rely on dealing damage faster than your opponent, tanking the crap out of yourself, or going for ew and jamming the ****e out of them.
Apoc, Raven, Scorp - anyone who flies anything else is a total nub and should just quit now basically. (Pls not being too poor to afford a decent bship is a rubbish excuse.)

Some things I don't agree about.
Quote:

1. A scorpion have more shields than a Raven. (though the raven probably is fitted with more shield hardeners/boosters)
2. The 4 launchers with torps on a scorpion will outdamage the 6 launchers with FoF missiles on a Raven.
So I bet a Scorpion would win that 1vs1.
Quote:

Well, the mega is only bad because the tracking speed on large blasters still is too low.
The arma shouldn't be much compared to an Apoc. But there are still ways to use an arma pretty good.(though no reason to use it if you can afford to loose an apoc).
The Tempest should be feared because it doesn't use cap for it's weapons(and gives a great bonus to large projectiles). And with 5 med/6 lo it offers much versatility. Pretty much the same reasons as a Raven...
*edit* And yea, I know how missiles blow up each other in larger fights. It's enough with 2 missile users to start blowing up each others missiles before they reach the target.

my 3 ships are raven / scorpion / apoc
although the tempest can also be a very very lethal ship.. infact a well fitted tempest has the best chance out of all the other ships for living against a raven in 1on1 (although it still dies) (imho anyway)
