Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 13:18:00 - [1] Hi, I've flown caldari and gallente and minny up to BC but out of all the ships I've flwon I like destoyers the most. I've decided to train up so I can become the most uber destroyer pilot going... what skills do you think I should train (currently training for tech 2 turrets).
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 13:42:00 - [2] Sensible suggestions please
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 13:50:00 - [3] anything that I could do to make destroyers (not interdictors although I am planing to move on to these) suck less in your opinion because I like them.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 13:54:00 - [4] If I wanted to sit still and blow stuff up from range I would have stuck with my ferox.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 13:57:00 - [5] Well a catalyst with blasters has always done me well for 0.0 ratting so they aren't completely useless. You just need quite alot of guts. Would an EW/NOS cormarant work for PvP at all?
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 14:04:00 - [6] I said EW/NOS (I tried a fit which was basically blasters/NOS in highs, AB and ECM in mids, and MAPC in lows) I haven't tried it in PvP yet but do you honestly think this wouldnt even be able to face up to a noob in a cruiser.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 14:10:00 - [7] Is it viable to solo in an interdictor? Also Ill be able to lock the cruiser before it can lock me so jam it before it can jam me. As long as I can get a largish portion of its cap gone before my ECM fails a cycle wouldn't my guns do enough damage to take it down?
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 14:25:00 - [8] I was actually thinking of 2, maybe 3 racial jammers and 3 NOS/Neuts depending on how much cap I needed to keep the jammers going.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 16:28:00 - [9] Edited by: Murehk on 09/09/2006 16:32:42 Could you guys just rate this setup quickly, I have yet to try it but I'm wondering how you think it will do against cruisres (probably amarr cruisers) Highs 4x light ion blasters 3x small NOS Meds Ab 7.5km scram 2x Shade ECM, (will change if I want to fight something apart from amarr) Lows Magstab I can do 60dps with this, drain 8 cap/s and have a 80% change to jam someone. Please feel free to pick it to bits and tell me how rubbish it is, dont be tooo harsh though.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 17:52:00 - [10] Edited by: Murehk on 09/09/2006 17:52:39 Well I figure just fly towards them and as soon as they start to react lok and jam. If I fail my first cycle I'll just warp away but as long I can get that first jam then I should be able to get kinda under the range of their guns and shooting/NOSing them, I didn't put a rep on because I consider it a disposible ship and if I need a rep then it wont do me much good so I figure if I go into armour just dock after the fight.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 18:40:00 - [11] So from what you've said the setup I have with ECM, blasters and NOS should be ok?
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.09 20:30:00 - [12] Edited by: Murehk on 09/09/2006 20:33:14 Well I've just been dueling a PvP rax (small guns and 1600mm plate etc) in the setup I posted earlier and beat it 2 times outta 3. I figure though every cruiser kill I get will pay for another dessy. Basically as long as im reasonably lucky with ECM I win, fail more than 3 cycles and I die. Only happened once though so that aint bad going. Also once I grow more confident I'll fit better stuff and will also have more skills so should do better.

I'm sorry but i just dont believe you could kill a rax. Try mine on for size and i assure you i would kill you no matter how much ECM you dump on me Bio Well I'm sorry but I did beat a rax, I didn't propally kill it because we we're only dueling but got though all of its armour. I would expect you to beat me though cos ull know I'd be flying a dessy with ECM, whereas the guy I was dueling and most ppl I'll be fighting won't. Also I would have thought I should be able to pop drones pretty snappy with a dessy. And I always have 3 of each racial ECM in cargo or a nearby station so I can just change before I go into a fight.
Murehk	Posted - 2006.09.10 15:23:00 - [14] They are good at most things PvE wise. I did however also just take down a celestis with ease among other things while I was out hunting so it is quite an effective setup.
