Is it just burning AB/MWD to reach rats as quickly as possible and then orbit targets at say 20 km with AB/MWD on and fire autocannons at them one after another? Of course webbing frigates and jammer boats must be destroyed first during approach.
Try this fit you will thank me latter

Oh, and 8 turrets on a Mach? Impressive...
7 turrets indeed my mystake machariel warps at 3AU - look at role bonus
With that fit and my skills: minmatar BS 4 - auto specc 4 it puts out 1410 dps just from turrets
Check market for prices
There isnt a single L4 in minmatar (i reject missions against empires) I cant fly wtih ease solo - some require some care with piloting, ranges and agro but its easy once you get the hang of it. |

You are wrong - mach does it better and this fit uses machs streghts to the max |

You are wrong - mach does it better and this fit uses machs streghts to the max Factually, no I am not wrong as one of the Machs strengths (A role bonus in fact) is it's increased base warp speed. This means warp speed rigs increase its warp speed by more than what these rigs would increase on another BS hull. Additionally warp speed implants will also have a bigger effect. Since your time in warp is in fact the majority of time you will spend blitzing lv4s, this has a far greater effect on how good the ship is for lv4s than DPS so it's probably one of the biggest strengths of the hull. Since the ship is using Polarized it (apparently?) needs the cap rigs to keep the repper running or else it dies due to no resists. Thus the fit does not work towards the Mach's strengths.
It warps faster than a marauder with warp implants, does way more dps what are you talking about? it can beat any ship in mission completion time overall
I agree with you on warp rigs - I think I could swap a rig for a t2 warp rig and see how that goes - never tought of that |

The Mach is not as well suited for Polarized weapons as Marauders specifically because of the bling you have to run and the lack of resists amplifying it as a gank magnet and the loss of warp speed rigs (either go all 3 or don't bother). Basically a marauder will out do a Mach in something like say, Blockade. But then Blockade is not normally on the list of blitzable missions. A blitzing Mach will still make more isk than a ship doing 1500 of the correct type of dps running Blockade. The reason for that is warp speed, mostly. Once you understand that you will understand why PvE Machariels are fit the way they are and flown the way they are. Just up to you if you like that sort fo thing or not. Besides, it's just as easy tog et over 1500 dps on a vargur as it is on a Mach
Dont forget the dps from 2 geckos if you want to talk dps |

Have you ever used Machariel and Vargur ?
Or you are an EFT warrior ?
Dont think that question is for me since you quoted him.
Only thing that vargur can deliver better than machariel is close to double tracking but a machariel flown corectly needs no more tracking.
As I mentioned before, this fit is not for cassual mission running with cap stability and some over kill tank. Its meant for maximum damage aplication, fast warp speed, good align and 1500+ sub warp speed for positioning.
Tho I will agree that swapping one T1 CCC rigs with a T2 hyperspatial looks like a very nice upgrade. Again I advise against using the fit without at least mid-grade crystals. |

Either way polarized mach shines and then some. I blitz and cherry pick for the isk efficiency part and I never loot/salvage |

We where arguing about 2 different scenarios and we where both right. My POV at that time with that fit was running missions with declining all burners so for that purpose that machariel is best with that fit considering tank/gank.
After starting on burners I found that fit was lacking in some areas so I replaced all rigs with T2 hyperspatial, dropped a Tcomp for a MJD, serpentis inertial stab and plugged in an assortment of ascendancyes with WS-618. I only run scarlet, the assault and pirate invasion and the fit i find is just perfect. Mach warps at 7.9
Cheers - do you have a fit for the next super burner? |
