20:05 one of our dictor pilots starts screaming that he has a rattlesnake in a bubble. With 3 corp members online we move to engage the faction battleship that shall hence forth be called "Indominable".
So the rattlesnake is within jump range of the gate, so I volunteer to jump in and 'force him through' to the 2 battleships on the other side of the gate. "uhh guys, I dont think I can force this ship to do anything" We bring in some alts and bump him off the gate. Cool now he cant jump through, but still we cant ***** his tank. At this point I start running out of the missiles that he is weakest to and his shields are recharging rapidly. Gawd damnit, i need more firepower! Our corp members are highly attuned to the 'force' and seem to be able to sense when there is righteous gankage to be had and start logging in and making their way to the killzone.
By this stage our ravens are almost completely out of ammo and had barely droped the rattlesnake below 50% shields. (we have fired about 5000 missiles at it by this stage) Meanwhile, one of out pilots was being held up by a 5 man bs gang in low sec and finally said screw it and did a leyroy jenkins and jumped in on the 5 battleships who promply warped away. Finally some more firepower! A quick logistics run and our ravens were ready to give it one last try. We knew we were fighting the clock here, Ka-Tet had to be mobalising a rescue force. So with 3 ravens, an abaddon and a small army of alts we gave it one last try.
At 20:34, a full 29 minutes after the initial bubble had been droped we *****ed the shield tank of this 'Indominable' foe. We knew from a previous engagement that this pilot had an officer implant set of some kind as he paid a 200mil ransom the previous day to save them. So, unwilling to pay the 500mil ransom we asked this time, we quickly sent him to the cloning facility.
All I can say is that rattlesnake had the toughest tank i have ever seen on a battleship. The killmail confirmed what we suspected, officer fitted passive shield tank. On a side note, I have killed carriers with softer tanks than this rattlesnake.
Kudos to Catholic Priest of the Ka Tet alliance for beeing a good sport about it. I would like to dedicate this righteous gank to BIG. Ka Tet, the pain has barely begun.
Luv Pookie

No idea,
All I know is that was the toughest tank I have seen on anything smaller than a capital. He was tanking about 2k 2dps in his weakest resist easily.

You know SATAN, crystals don't help when you are passive shield tanked. :)
Nice kill though ... very nice kill.
As for the setup, RS has the extra low slots and the equivalent of a LSE in shield HP over the CNR i think. That's what makes it a good passive shield tanker.
I'm not neutral in RAGOON vs BOB, I just dislike both sides. :) |

It was... i believe a
Medium Shield Extender I
could have had 2... well never know... since the crusader has 2 med slots after all
but the KM shows only one

I think he meant the rattlesnake, not my travel crusader you seem to be obsessed with..

zomg... rattlesnake huh?
Now just guessing... (with some leads from previous posters, killmail and assumptions)
Mids: Pithum A Heat, Kin, Mag. 2x Invul fields Dread or better, 1xLSE II.
Low: 1x DCS II and atleast 3x SPR IIs...
that'd give me (with maxed SPR IIs) atleast 80% in lowest res and some 160k effective HP.... though still seems I'm missing something
now if I could only afford a rattlesnake and those mods on TQ =)
edit: I'm soo bad at typing =D
There's only one sig that matters... and that's Radius. |

It's a nice guess but not even close.
although i think i'll refit to make the next setup better.
It was a 100% Passive tank...
except for the 1 invlun field...
although that one tanked about 2200 p/s passive.
if i can some how save up or afford it I'm pretty sure i can increase that about 1000 p/s... maybe...
probably call it the "BE EDITION"
But.. lets not ruin the thread with a whole lotta meaningless smack though..

And a side note. After reading the local chat transcript. Kudos to all for not being smacktards. It's nice to see some class go with the fighting.

his tank wasn't that good, your dps just sucked. No offense, but raven dps is not that good.
