If **** hit the fan the primary list of any serious fc is:
Naglfar -> Moros -> Revelation/Phoenix
You can even switch from a Phoenix at half shield, take down a Naglfar and come back and you will "earn" from the switch.
When you are in Minnie capitals you are primary, period.
I think this is what makes the Nag actually deal much less damage than the other dreads - people can't tank them properly and fit damage mods.

LOL, only the Revelation needs to carry almost no ammo ...
Also, 7 cycles (L4) + 30k fuel = 6300 + 4500 = 10800m¦, the Naglfar has 10250m¦ cargo hold.
Umm... if you do not know what you are talking about, I think it is better not to post anything.
I know exactly what I'm talking about, I only multiplied the stront amount with 3 for some strange reason. ;-)
In any case, you're wrong, the Rev holds enough fuel + stront + ammo just as easily.

Just screwing around in EFT with max skills and fitted for max DPS, the Naglfar was around 20% less DPS than the Moros. That seems like a lot. |

I think it's rather telling that (empirically), on a ship for ship basis, the Naglfar actually does about 17% less DPS than a Moros - and simultaneously has a significantly worse tank.

Yeah, but the Moros does 1000dps or so from drones alone, which is just plain ludicrous. |

The Moros is (empirically) the second most damaging dread. The Rev actually outdamages it.

Does that matter? This is a serious question BTW. When are you typically out of siege mode in a real fleet op? |

You guys are just making a fool of yourselves, anyone who knows what they are talking about know that dread pilots, stick 2 GSCs into their cargohold, each GSC has 3900 m3 and takes up 3000 m3, you need some space to move stuff around. But re-do your calcs with this in mind, if u do plan to fly a dread, don't forget this. |

Edited by: Rib0 on 06/05/2008 23:57:58 Edited by: Rib0 on 06/05/2008 23:52:57 first things first, ive never flown a dread, so this is entirely EFT work (and 2 minutes work at that).
i thought id give a shield tanked nag a go, this is the result
2x citadel torp, 2x xl auto, 1xsiege mod
1x capital booster, 2x invuln, 2x shield boost amps
5x cap relays 1x co-proc
2x cccI 1x cccII
5x ogreII
stats:
dps: 3480 (i took a quick look at what a rev puts out, it doesnt seem hugely more than this figure) tank: 10.3k for 9 minutes or 9.2k perma .... dreads really have any more important stats :P
to be honest those numbers dont look too shabby to me, not that much worse then the other dreads surely?
edit: eep looks like ive missed the boat on the shield tank setups - sorry
edit 2: nag with no damage mods does more dps than a phoenix with 1 damage mod - an interesting factoid |

XL AC's wont do so well at POS sieging since you'll be at least as far away as the force field. You will do more DPS with artillery at those ranges, and you wont chew through ammo. |

The only reason people train Minmatar ships past CSs is for the looks or because they are RPers like myself. If you sit down and get right down to it - Amarr - Gallente - Caldari (only because they ccan actually tank a little if you invest isk) - Minmatar. . .its just simple numbers.
But ya, the 'correct; dread is the Rev - anyone in anything else is just lazy to train all the gun skills and such. . .But the Moros does have its uses too - those drones can make a boring siege exciting by using your drones to kill enemy support. . . ----

Not really true. Rail moros with t2 sentries will outdps the rev(with beams).
Its just that most people dont have sentries deployed in those fights, or dont have t2 ones. 5 t2 curators on a moros will do amazing damage with decent tracking.
Recent EM base resist decrease also made the traditionally tri-hardened capitals have their lowest resist as EM. This is true on basically any caps where you fit 3 hardeners. |

That's a really great insight, Gamesguy. Thanks! It doesn't change the empirical study, but it does provide a bit of a counter-balance. :)
It doesn't help the Naglfar though. :(

Would changing the weapon slot layout fix the Nag's problems? For example give it 3 turret hardpoints and two torp hardpoints or do away with the torps alltogether and give it 4 turret hardpoints and change the torp bonus to a tanking bonus.

I like that Fact that u can Choose your tank Shield(Way more DPS) Armor(Less Dps/Sub-par tank) The Nag u can fit 4 Dmg Mods. Dont have EFT running but i know Due to useing it in Combat that i works. I also Know if your Primary u will Melt unless helped. Im sure ill get flamed a bit.. Boo CCP!!!!

Just giving it a cpu boost so it can shiedl tank with no faction stuff (hell you guys suggesting 2 DG invuls ona d read that is 99% chance to be primary are nuts) woudl be a great help, specially if paired with a bit more cap to use the shield tank :P
Anyway the only way to fix it woudl be to drop the cit launchers. Get 3 PRojetile turrets. Change the Citatel bonus into shiedl boost ammount ( change from super typhoon to super maesltrom) and make it a 4/6/6 layout :) ------------------------------------------------- If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough

More empirical stuff:
- most POSes are Minmatar and usually not hardened to have even resists, so the Phoenix is rather good for shooting POSes while Revs kinda suck (for damage anyway, ammo usage is a plus!)
- basically Moros is second best at everything, so best overall, Naglfar is not good at anything in particular, so worst overall...

Revelation and Moros are amazing, Phoenix is pretty crap because citadel torps are pretty crap, but at least it can kinda tank well if you invest enough ISK. Nalfgar gets the two worst capital weapon systems and can't tank well.
But hey, it looks really cool :)

Something I've always wondered about in capital fights...
Carriers often have smarties running. Especially if they're primary. What is the effect of those smarties against volleys of Citadel torps? They're slow enough to be likely to be regularly hit by the smartie cycles, but with 650 HP on a Cit torp it will still survive a couple of hits. How does it work out in game?

1. Defender missiles do nothing to citadel torps.
2. The phoenix is shooting your tacklers why?

Originally by: Gamesguy Killmails list damage as the absolute damage done, rather than effective damage done.
By absolute damage done, you're essentially referring to EFT damage? I've been doing a fair bit of "alpha striking" people, and I haven't noticed that - my damage on my kills appears to be my "actual" damage that I did.
Ex: hits for 50 damage! wrecks for 487 damage!
Shows on the mail as 537 - which would be the actual amount of hitpoints of damage that I did (after resists).
Are you saying that POS's are different than that (and I'll check my game logs to make sure when I get home).
