Hello!
So here goes.. having tried out some of the new BCs and with the experience of the old BCs.. here's the intriguing thread of the week!
Which BC in your honest opinion would you crown the King of PvP? Solo-wise, gank-wise, fleet-wise,etc. Share your setups and your experiences!
I for one love the Hurricane. But that's just because it looks the best out of the 4 lol.
Comments?

myrmidin, no question
oh you want experiences too. Uhm, using my non-nos myrm i took on a nighthawk with ease. woot. Its fastish, tanks well, does lots of damage, has great slot layout, looks sexy. What more do you need. A t2 version, thats what!
But ya with proper investment the myrmidin will rival most command ships so long as the owner hasn't shoved a loada faction and officer stuff on there. Myrm is a VERY versatile ship.

flying what? frig guns will do nothing, cruiser guns will miss, battleships... missiles fair enough but a decent pilot will retract the drone that is being damaged.

sounds weird,maybe you use rage precision rockets? anyway a good pilot always brings more drones in his cargo bay.

Myrmidon... Cause no other BC can beat a Nos-Domi.
Last domi i fought was a 2003 player, t2 heavy drones, 1x large nosf, 5x medium neutron blasters. I was actually suprised that my cap was doing so well. Didn't know he was less nosf and more guns.
The fight lasted a while since he kept trying to pop my drones. I had to pull them in alot. With his drones and blasters, he was doing fair damage. Strong myrmidon tank still stayed above 80% armor. The domi was down to about 30% armor when his boosters were all used up.

Drake.
Only problem is that people don't know what to do with it. It's unkillable.

To be fair, a domi with 1 heavy nos is hardly a nos domi.

If you haven't noticed, the myrmidon dronebay isn't that big. you won't be able to bring many extra drones, atleast not if you use heavies ;)

Care to share Lukec? In every other thread you mention some mysterious, uber solo pwn setup, which is of course uber sekret and only known to you!
Anyways, as for BC, IMHO Myr >>>>> everything else. Put on NOS, ECM Burst, Sensor Dampners, 2xreppers (or 1 + plate) and your set.

No, 1x large nosf is not a nosf domi... that was just a domi with more damage. Yes, I have killed domi's with a full rack of nosf. For the extra, No A myrm can't beat a pilot that is equally as good with his domi.
As for the post about the Drake being "unkillable" An active tank can tank a BS's damage. You need a Pith B-type large booster though. With a cap injector, the tank can run for 5 minutes against a ship with nosf if everything goes well. But the damage output is nothing really special. Myrm can tank a drake with ease.
Myrm may have a small drone bay but if you know how to scoop your drones, you have little to worry about. Also.. Heavy drones are much better than mediums. If you loose 2x ogre II's your still gonna be doing more damage than if you were using 5x hammer II's. Heavy and medium drones can easily be the difference between tankable and not tankable.
Passive tank drake is much more efficient and against a cruiser it is "unkillable" but a passive tank other than good faction fitting can not tank the damage of a decent BS, or good BC. While a good tank on a BS or BC will be able to tank the drake just the same. Only difference is that the drake can do it better under lots of nosf. -------------------------------------- ---"What's in your wallet?"--- "There are two kinds of respect, fear and admiration....

I had this great idea of finding your setup from a lossmail on your killboards, but there are no drakes there. Maybe it is unkillable!?!?!?! (or I don't know your caldari alts name)
This post is just filler to make it on topic, all I've really got to say is your killboard is at least 76 times better than your old piece of ****.

Drakes are insane. I have a passive drake that can rep like 260hp/sec raw (that's w/ no resists taken into account) and once you take into account the resists, you're looking at 800+ dps tanking ability, *PASSIVELY*. While still dealing a huge amount of damage out (7x HL2s). I tanked a Domi *and* a Tempest with it, and sat there and laughed as my cap went to zero, yet my tank held just fine and I continued to do damage while ECMed (FoFs don't you know) while my mates shredded both BSs.
No Myrmidon can do that. Nos it and break it's cap, no more tank. Pop it's drones, no more DPS. Replacements? Not if you're running heavies. Don't run heavies you say? No DPS if you use mediums.
Best BC? I'd say EOS. Good DPS with guns, good tank, flexible slot layout, decent drone bay (2 sets of heavies). IMO it's as near to perfect as you can get for a BC sized ship.
The Hurricane is fun too with 6x guns and 2x med neutralizers (not nos). It's funny what happens to another BC when it's hit with the equivilant of 5+ heavy nos. Low Grade Halo Set anyone?
Everyone is having a stupid contest, and you're in first place! |

Edited by: LUKEC on 25/02/2007 14:38:15 Solopwnmobile: myrmidon or hurricane(well minmatard one anyway), drake isn't really solo pwnmobile, but solo pwnmobile doesn't mean best ship. Drones are quite useless in anything bigger than 5vs5 and myrmidon with 5 heavys is just waiting to become sitting duck. Meds are crap.
For t2, sleipnir all the way. Nighthawk can have sick tank, but it lacks dps & mobility. -------- ..... |

Note he said BC, not CS.
I'd have to say myrmidon, so flexible...
Originally by: Tuxford I have already expressed my personal opinion on this and it was very positive (something about happy in the pants).
