as a 100% pure amarr pilot i could need some tips and trix how to keep my motivation up and what ships to look at.
atm i have 18m SP. all trained in combat.
i have bs 5 i have cov op i have af
in pvp i tend to fly mostly bc and cruiser becouse i lack isk to really dare to train and fit a hac or recon.
i havent come up with any good setups for the amarr BS ships to use in small gangs or solo pvp.
either i keep traiing my support skills and stay away frome the t2 ships. keep flying t1 cruisers and BC and maybe BS in combat as they are cheap.
afaik recons is the amarr flagship, but rather expensive to fit and rather easy to lose if you dont know what you are doing. i dont.
drones is soooo important for amarr also it seems, that makes me a bit sad as i dont really feel like maxing my drones skills to mutch when is so mutch more fun stuff to train. but i do have DI 5 atleast and use t1 small and medium drones good. havent gone for t2 yet tho...
how is it with the interceptors and af in pvp? worth it? can they be any good or will i just get owned like always when meeting a t1 fitted gallente cruiser...
a t1 fitted thorax killing a t2 fitted harbringer... sad... maller have a nice tank, but cant hold mutch when drones are eathing on it frome a thorax.
yes i need to whine a bit i dont know what to do atm with my char and with my future... i need some guidelines and some motivated talk to get my spirit up again.
pls help

- geddon is nice for gang...cheap..and good dmg. fit 7 guns and a remote rep...let others equip remote reps aswell. Stuff lows with heatsink and tank.
- a harby should make short work of a thorax.
- AFs are wortheless in pvp as it stands atm
- ceptors are cool tackling....fun to fly imo. youll loose a few..but they are not that expensive so np np. Stay out of web range...if you get webbed you die. train : acceleration control, navigation , evasive manouvering, highspeed manouvering.

I am a great motivational speaker, and it brings me joy to help inspire people. So let me be the first to say: You're doomed.
save up your isk and train for absolution and a carrier, every t1 amarr ship smaller than battleship is practically a cargo container with as good of loot you can fill it with floating threw space waiting to get drug back to someone elses hanger. the HAC might actually not be complete crap since they have more than 1 ship bonus not related to trying to make their sup par laser weapon system work and is pre-req for field commands, that or go for the curse since you have seemingly good drone skills.
If that doesn't lift your spirits, pulse lasers are getting a 25% tracking bonus increase

HAHA thanks! Sure command ship and carrier could be done ofc... but hey i am a bit finicky so i am not happy with my support skills to go for a cap ship yet. but i will in a year or so :P
i guess HAC and recon ship will come soon and ill chose my targets more carefully...
i might try that geddon again and se what i can come up with...
aww i only se problems and hard steps... but it is not that hard probably... i just need to stop whining and stop looking for the "i win" setup/ship and go out and lose alot of ships insteed and learn the real and hard way.
yay i am good

For small gang combat, the Arbitrator is a cheap but effective option, especially if your enemy uses turrets.
Once you've got the hang of using it, you can then move on to flying Curses.

I am an Amarr specialist pilot and i fly the BS's in low sec every day. The gate camping fit i have for my geddon is
7x DHP II with a range of crystals T1 and 2 20K Scram - Heavy Electrochem W 800's - SB 2x LAR II - 1x expl kin therm T2 - 1x EANM II - 1x DCU II - 1x CPU
Even with maxxed fitting skills i fall some 15 CPU short with this setup. With the changes to the active T2 hardenors commin in i should be able to fit this with no CPU mod (T2 active hardenors are using 6 or 8 less CPU per mod while EANM II uses 6 more). Its very good for sitting on gates pewpewing away and its really cheap to fit. I also use the other two BS's for differant roles within a gang. I only rarely solo so this is used primarily in a gang.

Another Abaddon Setup:
Highs: 8 Mega Pulse Laser II
Meds: Sensor Booster, Web, Disruptor, Heavy Cap Booster
Lows: 3 Heat Sink IIs, 1 1600 RT plate, 2 EANM II , 1 DCU II
Rigs: 3 Trimark Armor Pump
That's how I would set it up, you won't have to worry about cap with this setup unless you're getting very heavily nossed. It takes advantage of the Don's high base armor to build a nice buffer and the damage output is massive. Oh, and have a rep in the cargohold

thanks guys for good tips and setups. ill take a look at the abaddon (even that it is a bit to excpensive to play to mutch with as a newbi).
but the arbi is nice my disruptor skills are good. t1 medium drones and nos/neut will hopefully do some damage to a few.
problem tho is that i cant find a good solo ship maller or harbringer is what i come up with... what do you think=??

I am really quite fond of the Abaddon / Geddon for soloing. They can both be fit for the task. The Abaddon's tank is godly when dedicated to the task with resists easily in the 80's with a full gank rack in the high's + 4 mids to really ruin someone's day :)

Edited by: Kerdrak on 14/06/2007 09:52:17 Amarr tech 2 cruisers are the best.
Zealot > all HACs Sacrilege: awesome for low sec gate camping Curse: best heavy tackler in gangs (fills the vagabond role and does much better) and awesome solo. Pilgrim: best solo force recon

sounds nice indeed do you think you can evolve a bit more for eatch ship and let me know how you would think using them, tactics etc etc.
ill start planing on my new geddon atleast for some solo ganking here and there... fitting it cheap just to test it out and go and lose it and learn then a few harbringers to play with also before i even consider training for hac and recons.

My ships have 70% EM resist before I even add tanking mods... No Wait... That isn't very motivating...
In all seriousness: Arbitrator, Crusader, Harbinger, Geddon, Abbadon.
All good ships. Also any of the 5% resistance per level ships work pretty well with autocannons fitted.

Edited by: Forty Three on 14/06/2007 11:13:02 well, what I'm gonna say may not be your cup of tea, and it goes against many people's golden rule... But my advice is, get t2 ships. Get t2 ships and fit them with the best you can afford. It doesn't matter if you blow your whole wallet, just make sure you have something to get back up once you lose it... after a while, flying in t1 ships gets boring, I know it. I'm not a particularly rich person (hell, i'm actually really poor for a 2 and a half year old player) but I still fly only t2 ships and I've made a habit of trying to fit at least 1 faction module per fitting. (the rest all t2 of course).
yes, I blow all my isk on ships that die, yes, then I have to ***** npcs for a while or borrow money or... but it's fun as hell.
give it a try, maybe you enjoy it 
EDIT: oh and get yourself in a player corp, that will make things more fun for sure -----------------------------------------------

\agree.
Arby is my favorite T1 Amarr PvP ship. I know you don't like drones, but it's the way to go. Slap some medium nos's on it, and get yourself a nice tank. Then lock them down, nos them, and watch your drones break through their cap-less tanks.  - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Curse is one of the deadliest ships in the game, solo and gangs. Nos from 30km, decent dps, fast, SEXY, can I say more...
Pilgrim is arguably the best 0.0 soloer in enemy territory if u get past the gate camps. Get into deep carebear space and find ratters, has no problem taking down anything smaller then a carrier...
Arbitrator is one of the best cruisers, and the fact that the other good ones are gun ships gives the arbi a edge...
Zealot will shine like a new dime after the 25% pulse tracking boost, should be able to orbit at a nice speed and still get off wrecking shots...
Did I mention amarr have the best recons ?

Once you get about 10 million skill points in gunnery you will be fine.
Beyond that, I think this is a perfect opportunity for MATT FOLEY - MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER.

if you ever want to see something funny, get an apoc and fill it with 4 AC and 4 Newts and all the tank you can squeeze in, then use it as a bait ship. Guy warps in, you lock and scramble, set your 4 AC on him and watch local

this was the absolute best motivation speak :)
thanks!
but i¦d like to know how you fly these ships... like the arbi, nos/neut, drones, orbit outside web range, tracking disruptor and hope your drones do enough damage and you are lucky with the tracking disruptors???
