I didn't think you were rude, maybe a little hostile.
Originally by: Mardonius Edited by: Mardonius on 28/08/2006 00:20:31 It disappoints me sometimes to see how people respond to harmless questions such as yours. There simply isn't any need to be so belligerent. At the same time as an EVE pilot you seem to be attenuated from most of the player community. Anyway, I don't know enough about rare ships or battleships to comment on your set-up or answer your questions for you.
Thanks for the support but sometimes i think if there's no pain there's no gain, you can't toughen up unless you get beat down; like my pet puppy.

Originally by: inSpirAcy I'm not going to be a lifeless robot saying 'This setup needs improving with these steps and here's why'. I'm going to say it's rubbish (it is), try to characterise it (I could solo it in ship X) to put how rubbish it is into perspective, and then give constructive tips to improve it. 
If this was a newbie trying to figure out his first ship, I'd be a little more polite. But despite my EVE combat experience (and zero knowledge of manufacturing), if I wandered into the Market channel and said 'I'm going to buy a Carrier BPO, is my crazy component economics any good?' I would fully expect to be laughed at. Start small and work up, or I'd just take the ridicule a little less personally. 
But I like robots, and i am a noob, well sort off, at combat anyway.
But anyway the point of the post was to see if the mods i have on my ship actually work. And i appreciate the advise people have given but i'm not going to follow it, i'm still gonna buy expensive yet unpractical mods for my vindi cos all it is is just a carrier for my mods. I don't plan on pvp'ing, ever. I was just curious is all.

No armor hardeners or a DCU = bad bad bad.
If i get the remaining faction/officer mods that i listed would that rarity/value score go up to a 10?
Nahhhh, to get a 10/10, you would need a fed. mega(impossi ble) or navy(well i guess vindi compares to navy)...and the absolute best items.

Your ship lacks resistances, it doesnt matter if you have 2 uber godly reps if the armour you do have gets melted like butter on a hot day.
For the love of God train t2 blasters. You get a huge damage increase and then you can load t2 ammo for even more Godliness.
By the way, people get on your case because this thread screams "all the gear, no idea"

If that is the best set up you can come up with I strongly urge you to jump in a tech I frig and learn how to pvp, then a thorax, then a megathron, then maybe the vindi, by which time you wont be needing to ask this question.
Honostly I dont think I have seen a set up so bad, and I have to ask, did you buy ISK from ebay for this ship and its fittings? cant honestly see how someone with as much ISK as you have to buy such a ship and the modules is so clueless about fittings.

to be quite frank, you're not listening to anyone here. why not ask the mods to close your topic?
1) you know the rarity. 2) you know the value.
value
about 4bn in goods.

Your Vindi makes me sad, as it sucks so much.
Shame on you for making such a fine ship, look like a bag of bolts.

All those nice shiny pdu's,sell them.
your set up should have these....
Add another Nos and drop a gun then get 6 t2 Ions ((the less Cap use helps with the tanking while allowing you to use t2 ammo)
1 Heavy Electrochem. Cap Injector
1x Centus X-type LARP 1x 1600MM Rolled Tungsten Armor Plate 1x Internal Force Feild Array 1x Deadspace,Faction or Officer Energised Adaptive Nano Membranes 1x Deadspace,Faction or Officer Magnetic Stabilizer 1x Deadspace,Faction or Officer Tracking Enhancer 1x T2,Deadspace,Faction or Officer Reactor Control Unit
If you have any spare cash after selling some of your mods I sujest looking into a Snake set to use with this. The cap from the two nos and the Injector plus the lower cap drain from Ion IIs really does help a good deal, I know alot of Bthron pilots now use the top end named neuts since theres is only a .8 cap useage differance between Modal Neuts and Ion IIs, but on some of the tougher NPC's in the level 4s,T2 ammo really does go along way in easing the burden of soloin' the sucker. Not to mention the tracking is better with Ions .
My only regret is going out with a whimper and not guns blazing. |

Edited by: Verus Potestas on 28/08/2006 10:05:41 He doesn't have to have bought it with GTCs, he could be an industrialist. Given some of the setups I have made explode and whose been flying them, I do not think that crap setups are a mark of a new player only, just carebears usually.
edit: I do not mean carebear as a derogatory term, just someone who does not PvP.

-You use neutrons. -You make no use of the MWD bonus -You have only a few thousand hitpoint overall. -A weak tank. -The same damage of a ganka neutron mega. -100HP more than a normal mega. -You can make use of your 5th midslot for a ECM module. -You use Neutrons, You use null in them and you have a 10km scrambler.. That pretty much means you'll enter 10km while mwding, not exactly need that extra range you get from null since on neutron, you're already within your optimal with null.. You use a X5 web instead of a Fleeting when you already fly a faction ship with faction mods...
Waste of ship unless you can afford to lose it, otherwise it's not exactly better to use a vindicator like this than regular megathron.
Whatever floats your boat tho, Now that everyone saw that screenshot, they'll know you're a easy kill when they see you

If he can't even figure out how to setup a vindicator, or a blasterthron in general, there's no good reason in giving him a kamikazee style setup..
But hey, I bet you contribute to the topic more than me.

ok, first off you need t2 guns, forget the faction guns because they cant fit t2 ammo!!
7x ions blaster cannon T2 faction mwd[this might be a prob because they tend to use more cpu than the t2 kind!] 30km warp desrupter, 15km web, another 30km desrupter, a faction cap injecter 2x best faction energized adaptive nanos, 1x best named/cosmos dcu, 2x best armor reps, 2x SS mag stabs
if that last high fits with a nos u got a winner, but i dont think it does, so add perhaps a cruise launcher and if that dont fit a med faction nos

You use a X5 web instead of a Fleeting when you already fly a faction ship with faction mods... -What the hell at putting MWD / Cap injector / 6 guns on your F1 - f8 keys and putting another gun on the second row.. Infact, what the hell at all of it. -You actually have stations on your overview?
So we got, weak tank, Weak damage since you use Null, Maybe if you fitted void you'd kill something before you die, when it comes to battleships..
Waste of ship unless you can afford to lose it, otherwise it's not exactly better to use a vindicator like this than regular megathron.

In a gang neutron+null is very valuable. less mwding, so you get better hits and optimal can hit enemy bs from far out (far in blasterterms).
But yes i wouldnt use neutron 2 on a vindicator, i used to have one and fitted it out with 7 electron + 1 nos and tanking in low...
One hint, our corp went up against a good ammount of domi's featuring multispec 2 and nos...I had a 96%backuparray (med slot) and thus couldnt scramble (only web). Every single cycle failed, while the domi's tried to EW mofo the gang.
With vindi in gang you can fit 2X of those and only a web, but you really wont be *that* concerned with jammers anymore. Most people use multispec anyway and those fail horrible vs such a setup. _________________________________________________
