Best Amarr Ratting Ship?
I have started a Project. I will mine and salvage my self a good pimped BS to use for ratting only.
But i still dont know witch Amarr BS i should take. *Abaddon - Tier 3, dont know mutch more about it really. *Apoc - Good tank *Geddon - Gank and damge
As you can se i dont know mutch about the ships in short terms. So i would be very glad if you could give me a lesson so i learn something.
I do hate when i just get a fitting and ship name as answer where there are no explanations so i learn WHY i should do as your tips say!! So Please let me learn and tell me WHY! :)
I will mine minerals to build the ship. I will salvage to build t1 rigs and fit on the ship.
*I have 16m SP. *I have BS lvl 5 *I have Drone Interfacing 5 (cant use heavy drones yet) *I have Cap Skills at 4-5 *I have resitance skills at 4
As i said the ship will be used for ratting/PVE. I will fight Serpantis NPC¦s.
Hope you can help!
Thx
PS: Dont forget to let me know why DS. :P

Edited by: Kerdrak on 02/05/2007 06:15:36 Being serpentis (the weakest 0.0 rats, I used to rat with a Harbinger) My choose would be the Apoc. Fit 325mm Rails and you won't have any problem.
I ever rat Serpentis/Guristas/Angels in Apoc because no problems with cap, you turn on hardeners, repairer etc, and go to rat... ________________________________________ First atheist amarr on EVE |

Abaddon is your best best.
An Abaddon with 3 CCC's is like flying around an unrigged Apoc with a 25% damage and resist bonus. Granted, you can add rigs to an Apoc... but it's much more difficult to rig for damage and resists.
But don't sweat too much over the decision. All three Amarrian battleships are virtually identical. Geddon has no tanking bonuses, but the best tanking layout (8 lows). Apoc has no damage bonuses, but has the easiest time sustaining the cap for a full rack of tech II lasers. The Abaddon has both tanking and damage bonuses, but needs more rechargers/relays than the Apoc/Geddon.

Rigs for a ratting ship? you CAN rat any 0.0 spawn with a tech 1 apoc. Why use a expensive ship to rat? I ever ever use a cheap and disposable ship to rat.
My expensive/tech 2/rigged ships are for pvp when you make a difference. ________________________________________ First atheist amarr on EVE |

He asked for the "best". But if price is a concern, why not go with a Geddon?

Edited by: goodby4u on 04/05/2007 06:50:13 Apoc if you want to spend slightly less or abaddon if your willing to go the whole nine yards...I dont usually rat with amarr but ill give this a try.
Highs:8x megabeamII(or 7x and a salv) Mids:3x cap rechargers 1x tracking comp. Lows:1x armor reps 2x damage mods 4x rat specific hards. Rigs:CCC. Dronebay:5x small 5x med. This is the abaddon ofcourse...The amount of cap rechargers that go on is really all about what your skills look like,with the proper controlled bursts etc you could probably make due with 1 or 2. __________________________________________ Yes it is great being amarr. I am minmatar,fly amarr,use gellente drones and am in caldari space. |

APOC (qucker and easier to kill big spawns than geddon, cheaper than abaddon)
8x mega pulse 2s (good damage, and you are in close to make loot collection quicker)
100mn MWD, 3x cap recharge (dont bother with tracking, use drones on small targets)
2x large armor rep, 3 hardeners, 2 cap power relays (or more hardeners, or heatsink 2s, whatever seems best with your skills)
5 T2 medium drones for frigs/cruisers (you will get some hits on cruisers but alot will probably miss so drones help aswell) ------------- Lost Without a Clue |

If you want to actually make PvE fun, try this:
Geddon. 4 x Large Thermal Smartie II 4 x Heavy Nos (II/E500/Dim/whatever)
1 x 100Mn MWD II 1 x Sensor Booster II 1 x Drone Navigation Comp I
2 x LAR II 2 x Active Kinetic II 1 x Active Thermic II 1 x DC II 2 x CPR II
5 x Ogre II
Now, most Serpentis npcs engage from short range with blasters, so you can be dealing horrible crazy damage to them with the smarties, and once you're out of cap or whatever, send the Ogres after them (with the Navi Comp they'll move faster). Webbing frigs can be smartbombed, and NPCs that engage at range can be mwd'd at or have Ogres sent at them.
For rigs i'd suggest 2 x top speed ones, or possibly a top speed and an agility one.
Have fun you crazy kids...
