Originally by: Kane Kuchera Edited by: Kane Kuchera on 07/10/2007 22:44:36 I use the following; No trouble with Level 3 Missions and can do Level IV blockade with only one warp out.
High Slot Fittings: - 7x Heavy "Malkuth" Missile Launchers - 1x Small Tractor Beam
Medium Slot Fittings: - 1x Invulnerability Field II - 1x Photon Scattering Field II - 4x Large Shield Extender II
Low Slot Fittings - 4x Power Diagnostic System II
Rig Hardpoints - 2x Core Defence Field Extenders
Drone Deployment - 5x Light Shield Maintenece Bot OR - 5x Hobogoblin II
This setup is not the most powerfull, nor the most effective but it serves me nicely, and for a setup with rigs, not all that expensive either.
The DPS is obviously not too great here, but welcome to the Drake lol. I find that with my skills I can pull these missions through at speed without the need for a "Balistic Control System"
The Photon gives my shield some serious boosting by raising the EM resistnces and then the Invulnerability Field Boosts it again nicely.
- Many people forget about the Drakes drone bay, wich I think is careless. If you have some half decent drone skills, then use them. Whilst I tear into the Battlehsips my Hobo's are splitting off pulling all the little frigates apart. Makes my life easier. And for those missions that the tank can't hold out as well, just those 5 crappy shield rep drones make a hell of a difference.
As for ammo's I generally split it between 3 Thunderbolts, 1 Havoc, 1 Scourge & 2 Widowmakers.
Being a tad lasy I can't be bother swopping around for each mission so this way I generally have what I need. Plus it's nice to see different looking missiles zipping out of the invisible launcher nodes on the ship :D
Anyway, with some average-good missile skills & the same for drones. I find this setup is perfect for the "Lazy" mission runner. ie. The one who sits and rambles in a chat room whilst fighting, and as I already said, it isn't all that expensive.
and look, still a rig slot lef tto play with :D add a missile rig perhaps?
Shield rep drones? you cant use those on yourself, who are you trying to kid, plus use shield rep rigs not extenders will make your rep that much better. and use kin missiles, I know they are well resisted but it gets the missile bonus, and at bc lvl 5 it wont matter if its well resisted or not it will out dmg all the other types, aside from a few and far in between events. As far as the drone bay gos use kin drones as well, only makes sense to stack the dmg type to be more effective. yes you only get 5 missile slots but the trade off is you can tank 6 to 8 BS spawns. without having to try or warp out at all, this ship works in lvl 5s as long as ther arnt any carriers in it. ------------------------------------ Soni-Corp Co-CEO
