Hi, i'd like to get into some pvp using either a frigate or destroyer for fun until i can get the bankroll together to pvp in cruisers+ without worrying about losing my ship.
I want to do close up combat and was wondering whether blasters or autocannons are better for damage output.
Also would the damage output from the weapons of say a blaster fitted destroyer/frigate be enough to kill a medium fitted cruiser if i orbitted fast enough and avoided fire etc?
Suggestions for good frig/destroyer weapon setups would be appreciated too. I was looking into the Rifter and Thrasher for now.

stick with what the rifter/thrasher are good at,autocannons
3x 250mm light autocannon
1 small nos(if you want)
now on mid slots you could fit the 3 pvp items(web,AB and scrambler)
or you could fit an AB,scrambler and a dampner
rep and maybe a super small plate?
lol i've used this to kill plenty of frigs before,i know it's not the best thought

Yeah, I'd use the rifter if I were you..
Like the dude said to ya, 3x autocannons, 1 small nos. then, 1mn afterburner, scrambler 7.5km, webber in med slots and then a small repair and I could fit a 200mm plate and something else which I right now forget.. maybe a cap recharger or a damage mod.
Orbit real close, web, scramble, damage, nos. and activate the repairer when you need to.
I killed a moa pilot that was a couple of months old in a rifter pilot that was only 3 or 4 days old (I made a trial account to have fun Hehe). I orbited him and he was doing little to no damage but let out some light drones which I killed first before shooting him.. then it took me like a few mintues to kill him but I was fine to do so.

hmm thanks for the suggestions.
what about ships that give bonuses to small hybrid turrets - could those ships do more damage using blasters than a rifter with autocannons?
it seems that blasters have higher multipliers and slightly harder hitting close range ammo (antimatter)?
but if rifter is good against other frigs and has potential to take out a moa, then i think it'll be good enough for me.

If you want to use blasters on a frig go for the incursus, it can have a nice dps with speed. But i would still say the rifter is a better pvp ship than a incursus.
