I made a post earlier tonight about suicide ganking to clear the bots out of my home system. I have been googling all night, and I have trained up an alt that had unused skill points to fly a brutix, but she only has like 216 dps and that doesn't seem like enough to suicide gank a tanked hulk in 0.9.

Can someone please give me a brutix fit that is pretty much guaranteed to pop any hulk in 0.9?

All I need is the fit. I can figure out skills from there.

Right... 0.9 Uhm. That sounds interesting. you'll have to wait for someone else... Maybe a BC? No clue.

Just train more skills, but even then im not sure how a well skilled brutix will do in a 0.9 system

You ARE aware of the fact that DPS is kind of pointless for suicide gankinga nd you need something called ALPHA ie volley dmg?

YOu need to put out as much damage in the first volley. Its totally useless to have 700 DPS, if you only apply 1-2 volleys. a High Alpha ship can deal a few thousand points of dmg in one volley but having far lower DPS (because of low Rate of Fire)

So get the Blasters with most dmg per volley (no idea which).

T2 Ions/neutrons? (Correct me if wrong)

#1 What ship and fit do I need to solo gank a tanked hulk in 0.9.

#2 What ships with what fit would me and my brother need to team gank a tanked hulk in 0.9.


Those are the two big questions I'm looking for answers to.

If you're looking to do 0.9 ganking, your best bet is to alpha the hulks. You need to scan them to determine how well they are tanked - if you don't, you will most likely flub. Solo ganking in an 0.9 with low-SP alts is not something I'd advise unless you're going after pods in Jita with arty thrashers.

Tornado.
Haven't I said this already?

What guns and mods?

Is that for solo gank or for team gank with my brother?

1400 artillery in the highs
gyros in the lows
common sense in the mids

1 to alpha an untanked hulk, 2 for almost any other hulk.

There isn't really a cheap option for 0.9 space, unless you have 4 or 5 characters to throw at them at once.

If you're not using t2 guns, always use faction ammo for a gankship, you won't be using much of it anyway.

Edit: t2 damage mods for the lowslots are an easy train, and really not too expensive for a gankship.

Whats the cheap way with 4 toons?

Thoraxes for particularly well-tanked hulks, catalysts for anything else.
