Inquisitor Lord	Posted - 2006.07.26 21:41:00 - [1] Looking at the Rokh, the first thing that came into my mind was... "Awsome for Blasters"... Why? Well, a Neutron Blaster Cannon II (NBC II) has a 7.2km optimal stock. So, assuming Caldari Bship 4 and Null Ammo... 7,200 * 1.4 * 1.25 = 12,600 optimal (not taking any skills into accoung mind you) With caldari bship 5 you get: 13,500km optimal Toss sharp shooting 5 into the mix and you have some nasty blaster range.

(wen i saw the bonus's i also automatically thought about blasters :D ) Doh lofty beat me to it by a minute ------------------------------------------------------- Read my EW suggestions here:- http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=304925&page=28

Cohkka LoneWolf Mining R i s e	Posted - 2006.07.26 21:48:00 - [7] Originally by: HippoKing But, compare and contrast with the megathron and you get... I does slightly less dps with 8 neutrons (I asume it will be able to fit them) than a Mega with 7 ions. If null doesn't get nerfed I know what people will be using it for. (30km optimal) That's only if it gets enough Grid and CPU to fit them, but it would be pretty useless if it couldn't fit a full rack of 425mm so I guess it'll have enough... Don't speak english, just F5, F5, F5...

Celedris Tharsis Security	Posted - 2006.07.26 22:40:00 - [11] It might also be easier to fit an extra damage mod on the Rokh, but then again it could have something like 95 m/s speed and 135 million mass. Its all just speculation until you see all of the ship's stats.

Virida Mindstar Technology United Confederation of Corporations	Posted - 2006.07.26 22:46:00 - [13] We all know this. devlopers probably do it too better than anyone. hmm, duno. Maybe someday, rails and blasters undergo a change equal to the missile changes, a reworking of entire code base, and, bonuses is reworked so railgun ships get no use of blasters, and railgunships is crap snipers. Its either that, or, accept both is designed to fit BOTH. Anything else i think is not logical.
Minnow maught Itchy Trigger Finger Brothers	Posted - 2006.07.26 23:05:00 - [14] nice damage graph NB. We mustnt forget that fitting 3 damage mods on the rokh (assuming it has the CPU)wont loose it any slots that would be used for tanking where as the Megathron has to give up 3 tanking slots to fit damage mods. Would be interesting to see what damage the megat does with out the damage mods compared to the rokh with damage mods. If the Rokh is a slow ship it'll still make an excellent gate camp blastership !!! Everything will be in its optimal.

DisposableAlt	Posted - 2006.07.26 23:57:00 - [17] Even with 30k range, the limiting factor for the blaster-Rohk will be fitting. If CCP know what they're doing (sometimes I wonder...), the Rohk won't be able to fit 8x neutron IIs without RCUs, and won't be able to fit neutrons + tank without a couple RCUs, perhaps stopping the Rohk from fitting 3 damage mods altogether. Even if it does still allow 3 damage mods, it mitigates the fact that mega uses up tanking slots for damage mods and rohk doesn't. In fact, any blaster-rohk won't have an especially great tank because 3 damage mods and an RCU will leave at most 2 slots for PDU II.

Not entirely sure why fitting only 2 PDU means it cant shield tank well? Totaly hypotheticaly it could fit a full rack of neutrons, full shield tank with cap injecter in mids, then lows a mix of damage mods and fitting mods, even if you needed 2 PDU and 1 CPU to fit 8 neutrons and a shield tank with an injecter it should still pwn.

CCP know what theyre doing, they wont make any ships obselete Ferox. On Topic: It will deal some pretty hefty damage as a blaster boat but you're gonna need to fill its lows with nanos tbh. It might work in the same way as a blaster eagle, people are going to think its set up for range and close you down expecting an easy kill. The Rokh is different to all the other Caldari railboats though. CCP have given it 8 HP's meaning we're finally going to be able to deal some respectable dps with a comparable number of weapons to the other races. The blasteRokh could work, we'll just have to wait and see.
Ergo Morte	Posted - 2006.07.27 03:01:00 - [20] This sounds like one of those things that work better in theory than in practice. Besides, Calderi lack imigination. For all whining about the nos Domi you think the Calderi would be happy to get one of they're own. Assuming that the Rokh get 4 missile hardpoints like many think it will. High: 4x seige, 3x Nos, Neut Mid: XL or gisti booster, scram, invun. II, ECM for the rest Low: 3X BCU, fitting mods as neccesary. If it has any drone space ( doubtful ) then it can put out a few target painter drone for extra kick. The resist bonii are what makes this work, a high resist active tank that can run continously and still leave room for at least 2X ECM, likely 3x ECM. Without knowing the exact slot layout this is all conjecture but there are more worrisome possibilities than a Blasterokh that probably won't be able to run both a full rack of neutron IIs plus an active tank at the same.

That should be a KOS offense. /emote slaps Ergo Morte QFT Nik Also, this is also kinda the heart of the issue with the ferox too. The fact that even if all existing on TQ Caldari Railboats had enough (at least one more than they currently do), they would still be better off mounting as many missiles as possible and then "topping off" with turrets/nos/neuts is abhorrent, and even more than the cries once we get a proper rail boat that it's automatically overpowered with only knowing the number of turrets and bonuses.

Originally by: Malthros Zenobia And all that range won't mean jack **** because your tracking will make you cry. >.< not really. Due to the way tracking works, range doesn't give you tracking issues, on the contrary. On the other hand, as base damage is lower, the damage curve of the rokh is still below the other damage curves shown here. NB.

Kazaam Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.27 17:45:00 - [28] Actually, if a Blasterokh meets any other short range BS, Rokh could win : With a faction webber you can throw it to 14km, and get fairly near optimal range with Neutron w/Null. At that distance, Rokh can keep up unwebbed at 14km, taking poor damage from the opponent, while it can dish kind of a hard punch to it. Am I right ? _________________________________________

It's not hard for a decent Eagle pilot to beat a deimos at its own game. Less damage but a far better tank. So no, the Eagle isn't a piece of ** blaster boat in my experience.
