Anyone have any good setups? I have tried an arty setup (but used only 6 guns and did not have any launchers in) which produced pretty lame DPS and had to reload too often to break the rats' tanks.
I also used an autocannon setup which was much better, but ate up too much cap simply reaching the rats.
Here's the problem: Guristas rats can hit you from pretty damn huge ranges, so simply getting to them with my MWD (autos) is a problem (can't run the SB, lose lots of shields on the way.
With the long-ranged setup, I can't break their tank, but don't need to MWD to them. So... any good setups? |

Totaly pointless because it doesnt answer your question but..... use a typhoon? 4 siege launchers and 5 heavy drones should break any npc tank surley? ------------- Lost Without a Clue |

Use EIGHT guns, otherwise use a Tempest. The ROF Multipliers on both ships cancel out for DPS comparisons, and 6 guns + 25% Damage mod means that Tempest has the equivilant of 7.5 guns. So if you need to drop a gun, use a Tempest.

Consider using webber drones on them... then you can reach them with an AB reasonably well I'd think. 3 webber drones should get them to... 60-70% velocity maybe.
But yeah, arties would be better... w/max skills and a 5% RoF implant, you can get 500 dps out of the mael with 1400mm IIs, phased plasma, and 3x gyro IIs. __________________________________

actually vs guristas you're better off using Tsabbot ammo. ---

Phased Plasma does a bit more dps than t-tabot.

Perma run the booster, t2 whatever you can, I recommend getting a Shadow Serp tracking computer though, but t2 should be good enough.

I'd just use T1, sorry I didn't specify that. I've got a hodgepodge of skills, and can use T2 gyros, damage controls, and PDU's, but only T1 shield/guns.

i would suggest using a bc as the maelstrom is jsut too huge and slow for ratting. Use a bc or a vexor to rat in 0.0. they would just as well. and i love using drones as like you said, autocannons is just too troublesome in 0.0.
maelstrom:
use a good tank use tech 2 med drones tractor and salvage, now you got a uber ratting set-up.

A typhoon will do better with good drone and missile skills. Maelstrom is too slow and heavy.

I would recommend a Gallente or Caldari ship for ratting Guristas. Guristas are weak to kin/therm in that order, which perfectly suits hybrid weapons. And yes, it may be that some ships you either go a full rack of weapons or not at all. ------------------------------ One more soldier off to war... And one Velator in my hangars. |
