You'll find your favourite setup by yourself. Additionally you won't have the money or the skills to fit the best named stuff (or even T2 stuff). So I'll name some modules that would help you. You should get your hands on better so called named modules, preferably on better lasers (Medium Afocal Pulse Maser, Medium Modal Pulse Laser, Medium Anode Pulse Particle Stream, Medium Modulated Pulse Energy Beam from worst to best named). They have better range and damage than the standard laser and they're easier to fit.
3x Medium Pulse Laser I:
More damage and less cap than beams. But more important: cpu 16, grid 11 vs. heavy beam lasers with cpu 20, grid 13. They are so much easier to fit.
1x Small Armor Repairer I:
That's a real no-brainer. It's your tank. The stuff that prevents you from exploding. The Punisher is probably the best armortanked T1 frigate in the game. Don't even think about shield modules ;-)
0-1x 1MN Afterburner I in medium slot, 0-2x Overdrive Injector System I in the low slots:
The Punisher is a killer with medium pulse lasers, if he gets into range. More speed helps a lot.
0-2x Cap Recharger I (medium), 0-3x Capacitor Power Relay I (low):
These things give you better cap regeneration. Cap is essential to run your armor repairer, the lasers and the afterburner (if fitted). CPR's gimp your shield boost rate. No shield booster on this ship? Good :-)
1x Small Nosferatu I:
If you have lots of fitting skills (Engineering, Electronics, Weapon Upgrades, Advanced Weapon Upgrades), you will want to fit a Nosferatu in the fourth high slot. More cap is always good. And it always works on rats (on contrary to pvp, where it only works, if the target has more cap than you).
0-3x Heat Sink I:
Really a no-brainer. Especially the first one gives a great damge boost. The second a little less. The third only a small boost. However, there's nothing wrong about more damage, if you think you can dedicate all three slots to heat sinks. Unfortunately you won't have enough cpu to fit three of them.
Get up your fitting skills (Engineering, Electronics, Weapon Upgrades) to 3 very fast and to 4 quite fast (5 will take while, but you'll do that sooner or later too), and you'll get more nice stuff into your Punisher. |
