With the added mid slot and armor resists, will it beat the deimos in a fight?
Most people wanted the extra mid slot. The vigilant added that, but you need the minmitar skills to fly it.
The ideal setting is... meds: disruptor, webber, mwd, and cap booster. Now that the Phobos is coming out with an extra mid slot, do you think people will use that setting BECAUSE... you have HUGE movement penalties when activating the warp disruption field. Even when using an MWD.
Since the Eris is at the bottom of the interdictor list, do you think the phobos will be at the same place? Or do you think it'll be used as a Deimos?

For a cap-booster and twice the tank? SOLD! Also, It can fit dual webbers since it has a high-slot scrambler

Edited by: Acinonyx Jubatus on 05/11/2007 23:33:55 Deimos also gets slightly more range, I believe Deimos gets a 10% bonus to falloff, not 5% like the Phobos.
*goes to check*
Yep, I was right, unless the Phobos changed since that blog, the Deimos gets more range and damage.

Good pint about the Falloff.
Why the **** does it only get half a bonus?
The Onyx gets 10% missile velocity and the Broadsword 10% Falloff, so why the christ should the Phobos only get 5%?

I'm sure a high-slot general use scrambler won't make it live. Well, I'm hoping it doesn't anyways...
and if it does, it's a 2/3 dps Deimos with a fatter tank, and 2 more mids (effectively). Yay!
oh, and the preliminary look at the script for single point scrambling seems to cancel out the drawbacks to the AoE scramble effect (if they haven't changed that in 2 days).
So, no reason to use a mid-scrambler over a high (so far), which means 2 open mid-slots.
Though, I hope it doesn't work that way since that sort of breaks parts of the game in a fundamental way.
Oh well, it's not live yet, so it may just be CCP screwing with us... __________________________________________________

Care to elaborate? I don't see why 1 additional free medium slot seems game breaking to you. There are alot of ships with more than 4 mids. What difference does it make whether the scrambler is being activated from high slot or from medium slot? Unless you are talking about the possibility to scramble super capitals (in low sec). Which I would really really welcome!

Edited by: Wolf Pershaw on 06/11/2007 19:40:59 The reason for the extra disruptor is that smaller ships will get out of the bubble, so If you were to use the disruptor instead of the field disruptor, you'll have more speed. This is the first ship to institute an added armor bonus which is normally for Amarr or Caldari ships.
In a fleet, the ship would probably use rails, but the blasters would be mounted all the time for a roaming OP.
Even though this ship is PINK, I see it being used more than the deimos for quick deployment of a disruption field while bolstering medium damage. This is better than having a pilot fly an interdictor and lose out on the required damage in the roaming gang.
Think about it, the thorax is still the most widely used T1 cruiser in PVP than any other T1 cruiser. The Phobos is a major step up from that.

Edited by: madaluap on 06/11/2007 19:45:09 Ok im pretty sure i missed something, but i just checked testserver and didnt see a dronebay on the phobos. If this is true, np. But it makes me wonder why this thread even exists.
You lose: 5% less falloff 25% less DPS 150 dps worth of drones gone no mwd bonus (so less cap)
You gain: highslot disrupter and extra med?

I just got into a deimos a few months ago, and while I'm excited about the Phobos, I wouldn't replace my Deimos with her. Yes, it has a highslot scrambler, and ZOMGMOAR tank, but the loss in DPS and gain of (Effectively) two mids at the expense of lots of speed and cap just doesn't do it for me. I'll die faster in the Deimos, but maybe I'll have a chance to take them with me. With the phobos, it's just dying, albeit slower. ---

Dual medium rep tank + 25% armor resist bonus. (it has more PG than deimos)
It can fit
5x Ion II
10mn MWDII medium electro cap booster
2x MAR II
with 68.45 pg and 217.71 CPU to spare. With AWU level 4.

If you wanted to fit a high slot bubble, then probably worth getting dual t2 webs.
Land ontop of someone, dual web and setup bubble. Huge tank... how much can it actually sustain dps wise?

It can also fit a med injector, 5x neuts, an MWD and a single MAR without any fitting mods and a 3% CPU implant. + Tank/scram etc. --

ok so here are my calculations
EM/Explosive/Kinetic/Thermal
70/32.5/79.375/69.0625 *****base resists
74.5/74.18125/82.46875/73.703125 ***** DC + explosive
80.875/79.7323/86.6852/80.2773 **** EANM + DC + explosive
84.50/82.62/89.55/84.52 ***** EANM + EANM + DC + Explosive
Using 2 MAR II gives 71.11 hp/s repaired.
DPS tanked 483.67
Using my calculated resists and the spread sheet found here
You might get better resists fitting a non energized resist module (specifically refuge nano adaptive). Certainly it would be worth getting the 10 million isk dark blood adaptive resist plate. ---------------------------------
