Okay i have been training mainly for the interceptor side of things since i started but now i have decided to get onto some serious Battleship training for the Future.
My Question is which Battleship is the best for small group PVP? I am at a stage where i have balanced skill points so each different BS takes about the same amount of time to get to a good Level.
People have said to me Rokh or Tempest would be a good idea as they are most versatile. Just please put forward some of your opinions and experiences with PVP BS's so i can try and come to some sort of decision.
Regards, Sylux

I hear domis are excellent small gang BS's. I prefer to pilot a megathron and go for the "holy cow it's mega with nuetrons where'd my armor go" effect. :)

THERE IS NO BEST SHIP!
/me thinks there should be a popup every time someone uses the words "best" and "ship" in post/chatbox
small group pvp, well AC tempest is a nice dmg dealer, as is a blaster mega, rokh too expensive for small stuff imo as if u get blobbed it sucks at warping out and moving fast.
i personally fly a phoon, they are very versatile but therefore need a large range of skills to fly well, shield, armor, navigation, projectiles, missiles, drones + all support skills to lvl 4/5

Edited by: Marcus Alkhaar on 03/03/2007 22:32:25 if its 0.0 I'd say an armageddon or Abaddon is the best ship for your gang due to the crazy damage they can push out within 25km range.
Tempest is ok with its range on Autocannons.
Rokh will have the a similar range as a tempest, just with lower damage - rokh got a bigger tank though.

It all depends on what how you like to fly and how you like to fight. If you're a very support-oriented fighter, go with a Scorp to help your gang win EW superiority. If you like to play bait to get people aggressed at gatecamp, got with an Abaddon. If you like to deal big damage, then the Mega or Hype could be for you. Etc.
Anyways, IBTL

While you can make most battleships into pretty intimidating combatants at the small group level, I do have to say that nothing makes me curse under my breath in a sub-20km knife fight more than a nos-Dominix.

combat in EVE is all relative. each ship, each module, etc...serve a certain purpose. you can't really say this or that is better than everything else.
so, to answer your question i say...what do you want to use the battleship for in PVP? ECM boat(scorpion)? Missile boat from hell(raven)? Rail sniping platform(megathron, rokh, hyperion)? etc?
get what i am saying?

A Bhaalgorn could probably make everything mentioned previously cry though. :) Unless for some ungodly reason you passive-tanked that Raven, Pest or Phoon... ~~~

Thanks for most of the help. Now I never expected a definite answer for the best BS. All I want is a range of opinions which i can look at and come to a better decision myself.
Stop posting 'Oh this post is so wrong' and 'This is a stupid thread' because it isn't helpful and is off topic. If you got nothing to say that is useful - don't say anything at all.
Thanks for all the useful comments though, I am getting some idea of what ship I would like to fly.

change it to 5 damps have a ceptor tackle for you and thats an excellent setup..
Shield Tanking seriously limits your EW power, id prolly setup a raven like this. --------------------------------------------------------
