What do you think is the best Battle Cruiser for PVP purposes?
Pretend that they are all flown by pilots capable of fieling t2 equipment
I vote Myrm
powerful tank, powerful DPS (6 turrets and 75 mb of drones)

Although the mighty blaster ferox shouldn't be underestimated, I think the best all around pvp bc would be the Myrm, a close second would be the Harbinger, followed by the Hurricane.
After that I don't know prob Brutix, then Drake, then Prophecy, then Cyclone, then ferox. That would be my ordering at least. ------- Even my barge has kills... |

First, there is no such thing as "PVP."
Second, the myrm is a pile of ****. It has a nice active tank, and the extra med lends some versatility- but that is it. It has no gun damage bonus, so the DPS is a complete joke.
The marginal drone DPS only counts in EFT, not in EVE. If you fight in low sec you will lose drones around sentries, and even if you do not it is VERY easy to pop all the drones and remove most of the ship's DPS; it is especially easy to kill the drones when you are pretty much limited to mediums and lights which are one-volley'd by ships with a high alpha, and are also pretty quickly killed by smarties. Drones are also slow to reach the target which will die before they arrive if you are in a large gang(could use 3 sentries, but the drone bandwidth is just a slap in the face to people that skilled drones).
I like most of the BC's. The damage bonus on the brutix makes it a very nice gank ship. I like to use either the cookie cutter dual rep setup, or for a lot more fun a plated setup with 3xMFS II.
The harb also has very nice DPS as a gank ship.
The drake is nice for soaking up damage.
The hurricane really stands out for its versatility. It can be: tanked(with rigs etc), nano'd, gank, or can maintain a very attractive balance between tank/gank. Furthermore, barrage is just magical- even without a nano setup you can stay out of web range and use barrage against slower ships. You also have the ability to pick between damage types. The guns also do not depend on cap which is another plus.

Brutix. Dual reps do no good when your armor is gone before a cycle goes off.
Thanks to EVE Art Store for the sig. |

Seconded. Since bandwidth the Myrm is subpar to even the gallente T1 BC, nevermind the other races tier2s. It does pitiful damage now, and only gets 1 more loslot over a brutix to compensate. -- Distortion| Distortion 2 Preview |

It still does around 100dps more than dual-rep electron brutix(~650 total), while tanking the same amount of dps and having spare midslot.. as well as wing of lights and wing of ECM drones.. go figure 
That said, my vote goes to Hurricane for solo, Harbinger for gangwork.

Edited by: Qvaaa on 31/03/2008 11:39:21 1.st: Get into 0m from the Harbinger, and it will harm no-one anymore (bed optimal/fallof relation). 2.nd: Myrmi is not that bad, and you are an ignorant fool, if ya think that 5 medium drones, or even 5 warriors with drone nav bonus + small neut blasters wont kick your arse, when im told them so. Also: 2 pieces of 1600mm rolled tungsten tells me, its hammertime.
SO IMHO: 1. Brutix (it has only 1 purpose, and he is the best in that) 2. Harbinger (like the Bruti, but with more iskies for the blink-blink) 3. Myrmi (has no role, its the best in nothing, and still the best all-around) 4. Prophecy (crap) 5. Caldari (made for/ made by rabbits, nothing for the jihad) 6. Minnie (ugly junkyardbandits, wouldnt put my feet in those second hand ships)

Thirded. I fly Gank Brutix with ECM drones instead of the Myrmidon now.
Edit: Best Small Gang - Brutix or Hurricane Best Larger Gang - Harbinger Best Lazy Gatecamper with large gang - Drake

Edited by: Riho on 31/03/2008 11:52:36 as i can fly all the t1 BC whit t2 gear i say its in this order:
Harbinger Hurricane Drake Brutix Myrmidon Prophecy Cyclone Ferox
harbinger out DPSs any t1 BC easy :) and unlike the brutix you can acctually get a decent fit whit heavy pulse... brutix has a hard time fitting anything besides neutrons. ---------------------------------- MY VIEW ARE MY OWN, I DON'T REPRESENT MY CORPORATIONS VIEWS HERE... stop mailing me.. plz

I've only started attacking BC's solo and although I don't fly the Hurricane I'm sure it's no match for the Harbinger.
A week or so ago I attacked an all T2 fitted Cane driven by a pilot with something like 18 months older than me and I totally creamed him in the Harbinger. A few days later I attacked another cane and the same thing happened (except this one nanoed his way out of it and ran with his tail between his legs).
The last time I attacked a Brutix was three months ago and it was heavy going. He didn't have much of a tank but those things pack a wallop. We killed him but I had to call the cavalryà. =:) Now that my skills are much better I think I can kill the Brutix 1:1 in the Harbinger too.
I haven't fought a Myrm or a Drake one-on-one but I know I can kill my corp mateĈs Drake without too much trouble. Issue with the drake it can be tanked like a castle wall. IĈd still give myself 50:50 odds with a drake from a pilot with similar age though.

myrm - 750-800ish dps depending on skills, same EHP as a 1600mm plate FMP harb, without rigs, suuure thats not very good damage :P (ignoring overload, which brings dps up to nearly 900)

lie  first max is ~725 with t2 ammo and max skills without implants and then with such a fitting it will be paper thin cause fitting biggest guns eats all your pg

^^ someone doesn't know enough about myrm fits ;), and that fit is without implants other than a 3% cpu implant
and this is better than the brutix cos it has over double the EHP for 70ish dps less, and that is assuming you are insane enough to not use EW drones on a neutron brutx, and are using damage drones
