I currently have a Dominix and have saved up a bit of cash. I was wondering, how well is the Hyperion working for lvl 4 missions? I'd like to be able to finish them faster. No problems tanking with my Dominix setup. I'm hoping the Hyperion is an improvement.

I'm flying a faction Megathron for some time now against all sort of pirate factions. I'm using 425mm Railguns most of the time. Since the Hyperion is out, i'm using it for a blasterfitting to fight angels or Mercenaries. I always hated to replace the 425mm Railguns with Blasters and vice versa.
And since Angels do all sorts of damage the better tanking abilities are quite handy, too. :)

Yeah the better tank looks sweet. I'm curious if the blasters and the tank add up to a best overall LVL 4 ship.

No, i don't think so. Blasters are of limited use in missions. I'm already annoyed at all those bc's in angel missions that used to orbit at 25km and i either have to send my med drones or use blasters with low-damage ammo to just hit them slightly while trying to hunt them down one by one.
That makes blasters in missions where you have shortrange as well as longrange enemies a bit slower sometimes than other ways - depending on how many of each type you have to fight.
And in longrange only missions, like the guristas ones or the sansha missions, you are way faster using Railguns than blasters. :)
Another thing that i'm missing is the lack of lowslots. I'm usually using a Large Armor Repairer, three hardeners, two damage mods and a cpr. The cpr can be replaced with a coproc if i need more cpu. Well... i don't have that many lowslots on the hyperion - i would gladly exchange a midslot with a lowslot. Well, i've still some ideas to compensate that. With 425mm Railguns i'm now short in cpu if i fit all 8 turrets. So, i have to use at least one pg rig (+10% pg) and the rig that saves cpu on hybrid turrets for sacrificing pg. If its bad, i have to use a second pg rig to compensate that as well. I hope my med slots are enough to run everything permanently.
Just my thoughts...

wrong.
only a very few angel ships do more than 2 damage types (third dmg type being thermal. think saints do it, and some destroyers).
normal angel NPC's do kin and expl damage.

Oh, really? So Angels don't do all sort of damage types?

Oh, you are really quick in changing your mind. ;)

I have to fly into Angel missions with at least with one EANM or more than just explo and kin hardeners. Otherwise i can't permatank it.
Anyway, what's the matter? I neither said that everyone of the various Angel npc ships out there does all four damage types nor was that the topic we are really talking about here. Since this forum doesn't have a private reply function i have to post it in here. But i don't see any point in discussing your misunderstanding any further. *sigh*

Untill this summer yes, but angels was changed to do mostly kin/explo dammage ( with few exceptions ). Unfortunatly often u see around the old stats, so many people still think that angels do all 4 dammages.
edit: take care: zazzmatazz still do all 4 dammages ..
