I'm interested in skilling up one of the two to it's fullest potential. Will be used for gatecamps mostly or small scale gang or solo pvp.
Which one is better at the above tasks and why?
Cheers.

I would say geddon for small scale gangs,thron for solo....However the thron can do both,i wouldnt ever take a geddon out solo unless im clutching a station for dear life.

If you have friends and are camping a gate, hmmm tough one. geddon is pretty good at that. For smallgang solo pvp mega, because of more mids.

Geddon can start firing sooner without having to move.
Mega can fit more/better tackling gear.
Geddon for gang, Mega for solo (gate camping).

I would go with Blasterthron but to be honest, Gallentean ships are pretty good at gate camping. Look at Mega and Domi. In my humble opinion they are a gate camping race. --------- Technica impendi Caldari generis. Pax Caldaria!

Edited by: Deva Blackfire on 19/11/2007 23:01:56 1v1 (similiar skills) mega eats geddon
solo mega eats everything/can run away if needed/can mount mwd,web,scram,inject (needed for solo work)
geddon has lots of problems in solo setup (lack of MWD will get you killed, lack of web will get you killed, lack of injector... guess ^^). Its way better gang ship tho than mega (easy to deal damage up from 0 to 55km thx to scorch).
Tbh id go with mega if i were you. Gatecamps = sub 20km range = null works wonders. And you can solo/small gang too. Geddon would work in small gang/gatecamp too but when it comes to solo? nah.

Gatecamps... Mega is better Smale scale Gang.... Mega is better Solo Pvp.... dont even think about it in a geddon. But in any case.. Mega is better.
Apart from cost the Mega is better in any situation you can think of.

Squese as much dmg as you absoulutly can out of the geddon, dual sensor boosters and wd - plates and just hope there not fitting neut's but tbh your gun it so much 1200 dps easy with max skills with its super fast lock it reminds me of the old days with it ahhh.
I love the geddon, megas are kinda boring- most people fly em and tbh there not 'that' amazing.

Small gangs and gatecamping = geddon cause of its supprior range, its a pain to mwd to every single target that jumps a gate.
For solo i would go for the mega all the time

Past a gang of about 5, I'd take a geddon. Anything beneath that and it's the megathron. It's just an issue of range vs mobility. |

Geddon without doubt. Similar dps but much greater rang than the mega plus it's cheaper and easier to fit. ----------

Geddon for gang just fabulous with 7 Mega pulse II + 3 heat sink II + 5 heavy drone II but for solo megathron is a really good ship

hmm why not hyperion?
Tanks better, still does decent damage, and around the same speed.

They both work excellently. A corp mate of mine flies the hype and an old alliance guy uses the geddon (sometimes he'd swap out for an abbadon), and I wouldn't want to have to fight either of them without more than 3 people. I think the hype is better for raw DPS, but the geddon can fit reasonable DPS and a good tank. I'd stick with whichever one you have already skilled up more. ...in bed. |

How is the drone race the gatecamping race? >.< If we're talking lowsec your drones are gone in a matter of moments, they're also somewhat slow and bulky, and drones take time to reach the target, which is typically too late to matter too much.
I'd say minmatar / Amarr are the better campers.

take whatever your trained for both ships have ups and downs geddon is more versile with ranges and cheaper but mega got 1 more midslot and potential more dps and looks far better and one the drone part both ships can atm use same amount of drones so thats not a issue Your signature image exceeds the maximum allowed filesize of 24000 bytes -Sahwoolo Who needs a showel when you have a nice big cannon? |

Solo megathron cannot "eat or run" from anything. Tempest and Typhoon can defeat it using superior speed and barrage to dictate range, but need to be skilled minmatar pilot. Gets easier if the mega pilot is overconfident and follow the tempest or typhoon far from the gate.
If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough |
