Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.11 15:59:00 - [1] Edited by: Katanaha on 11/12/2007 15:59:30 after some testing on the testserver, i found that this rokh setup did fairly well on the small gang warfare part. here is my setup: --Highs-- 4x Arbalest Siege ( or blasters depends on personal preference ) 4x Heavy Unstable --Meds-- 1x Heavy electro / T2 cap booster. 1x XL Shield booster, ( t2 or best named depending on skill ) 1x Invul field 1x EM hardner 1x Thermal hardner 1x Boost amp. --Lows-- 2x BCU II 3x PDU II --Rigs-- 3x egress port maximizer I Why this setup. i found myself constantly anoyed by these nano ships / super tank ships. thus i made a ship capable maintaining its own cap ( for a short period of time ) and still tank quite well. while taking out the hostile Capacitor so its helpless ( especially against ammar and gallente ships this is quite effective ) not being able to rep itself while you maintain quite cap stable due to the rigs taking away a large portion of the cap penalty using destabilizers. no points or webs thus also relying on your gang to hold the hostile's down. i was quite impressed of this setup when i was fooling around with it an bit. any suggestions / comments will be apreciated. ( since i personnaly have no idea what to put in the lows ) p.s as you might have noticed my english isnt that good, since its not my main language. _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 16:08:00 - [2] Edited by: Birkinz on 11/12/2007 16:08:38 I was toying with something similar: HI 4 x Heavy Unstable Energy Drain 4x Torps Mid 3 x LSE II 3 X INV II Low 4 x Power Diags 1 x Shield Power Relay Rigs 3 Core Defence Shield Purger It tanks while it drains and does some damage. May have to swap a LSE for a target painter with the change or go to blasters but I havnt tested any of that yet. Its quite nasty though, can drain a BS cap pretty quick and you still have enough cap to run the INV fields. Tanks almost as hard as a perma running XL Shield Booster II and has about 24K shields on mine.

Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 16:22:00 - [4] Edited by: Birkinz on 11/12/2007 16:22:05 It would be quite nice to pair one of these with a Blasterthron methinks, possibly with ECM drones. My concern with yours is that it is heavily reliant on cap as well. What would happen if they fought each other 1 v 1 as an example?

My concern with yours is that it is heavily reliant on cap as well. What would happen if they fought each other 1 v 1 as an example? i have tried it once, it basicly came out as a draw. since i could not rep my shield back up but neither could he shoot or rep. And since torps dont require cap i could keep pounding on him till my next set of boosters where ready. but you cant really expect to stay cap stable with neuts running. and a shield and im no big fan of passive tanking / buffers. _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 16:29:00 - [6] Edited by: Birkinz on 11/12/2007 16:29:31 Sry, I meant if our two Rokhs fought. Mine reps without cap and may even be able to keep 1 of the neuts on. I have a scorp that can do that so I suspect that it can but havnt tested. You could always go for 2 resistance amps and an inv field for less cap use. Out of interest, why do you not like buffers / passives?
Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.11 16:37:00 - [7] im personally more of an active tanking type of guy i had numerous encounters where an buffer just didnt cut it. But in the case of the two rokh's i would say yours would probably come out as the winner since it requires allot less cap to run and denying me the option to rep up. But the posibility of 2 rokh's of these exact setups encountering eachother are quite slim. thus making it an perfect gang / fleet ship. ( would be even better to run it as an remote rep platform ) but offcourse that is quite an different story. _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 16:40:00 - [8] Very true unlikely to meet another the same, and the lack of tackling would make it irrelivant anyway. But thanks for reminding me about this, I dont have Tech II blasters yet but I have a "Spare Rokh" so I am going to look into this some more.
Riho Northen Breeze	Posted - 2007.12.11 17:01:00 - [9] its a nice setup but i still would prefer a blaster fit rokh :) neutrons + xl tank.. cant beat that :D ---------------------------------- Seems that there's a new game that seems to be very popular whit whiners these days. Its called EFT Online. dont listen those people.. as they dont have a clue
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 17:27:00 - [10] Well blaster Rokh looks cool for gate camps etc. How do you think it compares to the mega? especially if you fit it to tackle with a shield buffer? (i.e. try to copy a neutron mega) Personally, I think the neut set up is more versatile (defence against tacklers) and would beat a blaster boat. But its obvious nemesis is other passive tankers. Not so many of these about in PVP though from what ive seen.
Riho Northen Breeze	Posted - 2007.12.11 17:32:00 - [11] you really dont need to fit a rokh like mega... fit it whit a XL tank and u can tank hell of ALOT of dps if u have BS5 (i have a friend whit pretty maxed out rokh skills... i cant beat that thing 1vs1 whit any BS :P even a gank mega will get slaughterd) buffer tank is good allso.. but i wouldnt really use it tbh ---------------------------------- Seems that there's a new game that seems to be very popular whit whiners these days. Its called EFT Online. dont listen those people.. as they dont have a clue
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 18:53:00 - [12] Cheers for the info, thats interesting to know. I have BS 5 and my tank is pretty decent. I still favour the passive over the XL, but hey I dont like shield boosters on any of my ships. Ppl tend to favour the XL set up for the extra damage mods, and I can certainly see their argument. I still think I would like a chance of surviving a bit longer though and the passive takes less micro management.
Pinky Denmark The Cursed Navy	Posted - 2007.12.11 19:09:00 - [13] Rokh tanks very nice and yes - you can defeat Mega and Hypes... BUT before anybody cries about it you will most likely need to fit without MWD and tackle to beat those ships. - I'm a nice guy!! But hook me up with some pew pew, because I'm really bored...
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 19:11:00 - [14] Agreed its a true caldari ship.
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.11 19:16:00 - [15] What are ppls thoughts on the Torp vs Blaster argument on the Neut set ups. My feelings are blasters due to the Rokh range bonus as much as anything and a reluctance to fit a target painter. It may produce cap issues though.
Evanglion Gallente	Posted - 2007.12.11 21:47:00 - [16] even though blasters might be better due to the bonus i do believe it might cause in an decrease in dps due to the excessive cap use of the neuts / blaster / xl booster. i already find it hard to manage an booster with neuts. using torps due to the cap ( and tnx to the torp boost it can actually do quite some damage )
Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.11 21:48:00 - [17] ^^^^ stupid forum settings _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
HarryManback Minmatar Conniving Opportunist	Posted - 2007.12.12 04:45:00 - [18] 2 things why wouldn't you use a raven for this exact same thing with torp bonus and blasters will be better imo.
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.12 10:29:00 - [19] Edited by: Birkinz on 12/12/2007 10:33:43 Edited by: Birkinz on 12/12/2007 10:30:38 Raven as a pure damage dealer looks to me like it will out perform the Rokh for damage. However, it is not a great blaster or neut platform. The Beauty of the Rokh for me is its drake stlye tank. This allows you to run 4 heavy energy Neuts without affecting your tanking ability. Or for that matter 8 Neutrons. 4 Heavy Neuts + 4 blasters or Torps are pretty nasty, as are 8 Neutrons and with a pretty beastly low cap tank to go with it. The fly in the ointment for me is that you now need a target painter to hit with the Torps. Its also worth noting that the Neut set up will kill a Raven that is in range as it will not be able to use its booster or any active hardeners after a pretty short time. I tested it on a Navy Raven with the old style torps and it shut it down pretty quickly. IT was the only fit that could compete for me, although I have not tried the 8 Neutron IIs.
TimMc Gallente Exanimo Inc	Posted - 2007.12.12 10:43:00 - [20] I still agree with HarryManback, use a Raven for torps and the Rokh for railguns. Jita: No one gets out alive.
Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.13 11:29:00 - [21] well you see this is not about the damage. It is about the support it can do, i.e taking out hostile battleships for a period of time, the damage is just an nice addon. while using the least ammount of cap ( torps ) thats why i use torps on the rokh cause if in any case the cap does run out im still able to run some damage against the hostile group. _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.13 11:51:00 - [22] Hi Katanaha, have you tried the torps without a TP? I just wondered how it worked out? I would prefer to use torps as I am already speced for them, but dont really want to sacrifice tank for a TP if I can avoid it.
Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.13 13:28:00 - [23] tp? mind explaining what that stands for. i dont know all the shortcuts. _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.13 13:36:00 - [24] Sry, Target Painter. Ive been reading that you even need one to hit BS for full strength with Torps now. Also, whats the range going to be on a Rokh with average range skills - 18KM?
Katanaha Gallente Infinitus Odium The Church.	Posted - 2007.12.13 13:41:00 - [25] well tbh i dont use tp's either way, with my sucky torp skills i can get 12 km out of the torps, so i say 18-20 might be a more realistic range and the damage is still around 350-400 a torp _______________________ Please CCP pimp my sig! orly?!
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.13 13:48:00 - [26] Doesn't sound too bad, but base damage on a torp is 450, so you could probably get a lot more. I will have to try it, but I think I used to get 700 per torp under the old system.
EvilD's EvilTwin	Posted - 2007.12.13 15:49:00 - [27] all i have to add is that torpedo's do hit targets smaller than bs's pretty well. i had a fight with an absolution on sisi and torpedo raven hit him just fine without a painter
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.13 15:55:00 - [28] Thats interesting, I will be pleased if that is the case.
Birkinz	Posted - 2007.12.13 15:55:00 - [29] Edited by: Birkinz on 13/12/2007 15:55:53 meh, 1st time thats happened to me
