Hey all, just wondering about how useful people find Halo sets. I'm thinking specifically about frigate combat. I mean for example, a Rifter goes from 35m signature to 27.8 with a full HG set of Halos. How beneficial is this? Would I be better served with another set (maybe Snakes?) for frigs? |

Well, I think the Halos cost 1/2 as much as the Snakes, if that is any consideration. If I was going to bother with a full set of Halos, I would have an alt with a skirmish warfare mindlink and a Claymore in system...takes your sig down to <21 m. |

Yeah I was actually looking at the alt to boost with as well. I just really wanted to get a good feel for how much Sig matters. Even 21m vs 35m. Is that significant in terms of actual fighting? |

lol killmails are serious business and make your implants cost more. Better stab up your ships and have a backup blob just incase because omg i cant stand taking risks in this game.

Sig can make a huge difference. Most Frig weapons hit with 40 m resolution, so anything smaller than that decreases damage linearly. Going from 50 to 40 does nothing, but from 40 to 30 will reduce damage by 25%. 35 --> 21 is a 40% reduction in damage, so yeah, that can be significant.
Try flying in a Wolf-Rayet system....had a Wolf in a C4 W-R system, and it was a beast - +68% damage for small weapons and -34% sig for your ship. |

QFT. Luckily, economists are saying being podded should level out a little after Crucible has been out for a while. Until then don't risk it, way too expensive. |

The halos, god i love those..
I would only recoment using those on armor HAC or T3s.
That said doing L4 missions in my Mach using them i hardly ever have to use my Shield Booster and thats with a LG set.

Makes perfect sense to me- Buy a set of implants for 900m or more then fly a rifter.

with t2 links on lokis and halos a inty can get quite a stupidly tiny sig, ive tested 20 meter sig armor tanked frig and that was pretty damned hard to hit so with halos and drugs ontop pretty near impossible. |

Well, AB sader with t2 loki boosts, a full HG Halo set, a Strong X-instinct booster, and a W-R Class 6 WH gets the sig down to 7m
I don't think it can get much lower than that.
BTW at all level V skills and an MWD instead that is 15.7m
