I've been running around in a torp golem for weeks now and I have to say I've never seen a Torpedo destroyed by defenders. I heard somewhere that it takes 2 defenders to destroy a torpedo and I'm inclined to agree.
Anyone else who can agree or disagree with me WITH EXPERIENCE?

Yes.
I used to spread the torps out, for a prettier lightshow back when I was younger. Never saw one explode. These days I use the "bright ball of light" s can't really tell. Still, never seen one taken down by defenders.
Defender and torp stats support my empirical findings.

It takes 2 defenders to take out a torp, therefore they are to all intents and purposes not affected by NPCs that spam defenders.

Know which ones ECM and kill them first. When you have full agro then drones.
Yes Marauders have a crappy resist to ECM so I prefer not to do Guristas missions.

I tracked it in my log a while back, and on very rare occasions, I only got 6 hits on the NPC I fired at rather than the 7 it should have been. So at least back then defenders did kill torps, but it was very rare and not really a factor that needs to be considered.

Too lazy to dig out the quote, but some Dev said that rats ECM is completely fixed chance, independent of what ship you're in.

I've heard this too. But I feel like I get jammed way more in my golem than in my raven.
There has been a couple instances where my golem was jammed by ECM rats for more than 2 uninterrupted minutes. This has never happened in my Raven.
In my golem I dread ECM more than anything else just because of the pure boredom of waiting for them to stop jamming me.

The 2.5 mil rat in vengeance has enough skills to take out torps with its defenders. Raychen Machera or something like that.

I think that mission he spams defenders out - I usually count three launches.
This is why I have an alt close in on hom and seb him till I am ready ti kill him - as I kill the others my main closes in on hm and then kills him from under 5k so the defenders don't get time to do mych damage

Or, don't agress Rachyen and fly point blank before engaging. Fit a web and watch her die in rounds of torps. Or use web drones...I think that's the only use i've ever found for the damn things...and they still suck. heh

Kinda off-topic, but are you an alt of Jenny Spitfire? |
