Hi, i've just picked up a Rifter and was wondering what sort of kit i should be equiping it out with (weapons and other). Going to be using it for hunting npc pirates and doing missions mainly
TIA

Rifter really isnt viable for running missions. I tried.
Probe, Kestrel and Inquisitor are way better frigs for running lvl 2 courier missions.
As for Rifter outfit, i use the standard one every one uses.
2 x 280mm howitzers (gonna replace them with scout versions eventually)
2 x standard launchers with cruise missiles
MWD + ? in med slot. I need to train engineering to lvl 5 to be able to put anything of use there
Micro auxillary power core + ? ( i still miss 1 power grid to use anything usefull here. Maybe a dmg mod. I have cap relay atm.

MWD = Micro Warp Drive. A Module that sucks Cap, Reduces Capacitor and Shield's but makes you go bloody fast.
Make a difference

3x 280mm artilleries
1x M-12 launcher
1x 1MN MWD
1x small c-5l shield booster
1x aux power core
1x cap relay or power diag (depending on powergrid you may need)
You can easily hunt in 0.2 with this setup if you have some of the necessary skills already (mostly gunnery)

I'd like too ad something to that.
And is absolutely required on a frigate.

Depends what type of missions, I didn't have any problem doing lvl.2 kill missions in one. Wasn't till lvl.3 I needed to whip out something with a bit more damage capacity.

I do several agents, cargo space is the problem, damage output with rifter is never a problem :) Fire a couple of paradises, then rip it away with 280mm.

Ah, in that case you're right. I always had a Probe/Vigil handy for the courier missions.

use titainium sabots, phased plasma, and emp rounds. though they cut down your range, they do the best damage.

Don't the higher bounty rats in .2 fly cruisers? I've never tried hunting in a frigate but since I just started a new char and can't yet get a cruiser I would like to know what you need to do this. What skills and equiptment are most important? |
