Caracal is pretty much the only T1 combat cruiser that specialises in missiles - and in a similar vein the Cerberus is the only option if you're considering T2. So you're not likely to get much variation in comments...

The Sacrilege Begs to Differ. Sacrilege has a Better capacitor by 600 base and like 5 more cap per second passive recharge before the recharge rate bonus built in and with the ship bonus nearly 16 cap per second after. Cerb has more range then it can use though... whoopty do?

Sacriliedge; it eclipses the Cerb in practically all areas. Fittingwise, speedwise you name it, sacriliedge is just plain better. |

The Sacrilege Begs to Differ.
biggest differences are Cerb has +1 mid - Low when compaired to the Sac.
Sacrilege has a Amarr capacitor Which is light years better then a Caldari one.
Edited because I really need to not try and type out whole thoughts while working, It ends up a mess.
Cerb has more range then it can use though... whoopty do?
actually cerb sniping at about 150-200km work surprisingly well |

If you want to snipe at that Range a Drake would be FAR better for the Job. More DPS, Better tank. Also Insurable. |

My Mistake Drake range maxes out at around 126 km without implants. So there is 1 thing a Cerb can do a drake can't but it hardly outweighs the price difference.

How small? If only a few man then rook so you can jam and lob missiles at the same time. |

Here's two more for you. A Drake can't create a ~60-km no-fly zone for unpimped interceptors, and a Drake can't remove that Falcon that uncloaked at 200 km. |

Edited by: SuiJuris on 30/06/2008 19:01:36 Yes because there isn't a better option for killing a paper thin falcon at that range... Everything a Cerb is good at another ship can do cheaper. But its mediocre at a lot of things...
Short Range, Sacrilege no competition. Tank+Gank for cheaper Drake Long range Raven.
As for the Inteceptor no fly zone that might be its one niche as it is better then a Caracal for that.

I can see the Devs sitting around and trying to come up for a job for the Cerb...
And thus now we have nano and 200 KM jammers.
I'm sure nano (or rather polycarb) came first, but 200 km jamming surely came after.
Just another reason to love the Cerb.![Twisted Evil](/images/icon_twisted.gif)

Drake does that better and cheaper. Puts out more of a tank and more DPS.
I admit the Cerb is better then the Drake as a Anti Interceptor platform but thats the only role im seeing it do better. |

The OP said "missile chucking cruiser".
Cruisers, in the Caldari and Gallente line anyway, are cheaper than BC and do almost the same or the same DPS with considerably less tank.
If you fly in a medium sized gang then go with the cruiser because if there is any really balanced fight and you are primaried, you are going to die even if you go for the larger tanked BC.
If you are talking about a gang of 5 or so, then maybe consider the BC.
But "missile chucking cruiser" T1 = Caracal.
But you have to know that.

The *****le, and I'd fit it with HML and TD's or lock time damps if you have a BB/Falcon in gang.
If you're expected to maintain tackle in the missile chucker, fit a smallish buffer tank too.

Edited by: SuiJuris on 30/06/2008 22:33:05 If you want speed, the Sacrilege outperforms the Cerb by a good long ways. Drake outshines it in some Places Sacrilege in others. Edit my above post my intent was to say anti Interceptor is the only role the Cerb performs better then another missile boat. Everything else has another ship thats better and/or cheaper

Sac > Cerb for the most cases in PvP.
Yeah, missile sniping is nice, but it has a downside that you have to wait half a lifetime for your missiles to connect at that range.
As far as T1 cruiser, the only one really good at missile spam is the Caracal. You could put missiles on the other Caldari ships, as well as some of the Matari ones, but in general, you want those ship bonuses. |
