well, now the patch has happened i will ask this. As the title suggests i would like to know any decent rupture and rifter st-ups for fighting NPC's. Also would like to know what kind of bounties can i be expecting to get to in these set-ups. Not much of a fighter really as have been mining for ages :( but wanna get some action now :)
Thnx in advance for any advice any ppl can give.

I'm looking for help with Rupture set-ups as well.
I'm starting with the assumption that it is more suitable for armor tanking than shield tanking. Is this correct?
Any help appreciated.

I have not tested out my rupture since the patch...
It can tank either way for NPC hunts... I prefer shield in that I use the low slots to fit whatever I need to support my weapons loadout, plus a couple overdrives and a tracking comp or gyro...
It used to rock out I had mine fitted with 3 720mm, 2 heavy and 1 standard launcher.
I did 280 m/s speed without any boost, which allowed me to keep away from most baddies, I did a ton of damage and could use defenders if needed be... I took advantage of my speed and the range on my guns to keep out of my opponent's optimal and pluck them.
Now that you can only fit heavy missiles (which is fine for npc's), the rupture is a bit less powerful in PVP. The main problem is the projectile gun nerf... Were 720mm hit bad? If so, the rupture might have a hard time with fast moving ships, this would really, really, nerf it bad... I suppose that a decent setup would include whatever is needed to improve the guns' effectiveness a bit after this LAME NERF!
HONESTLY, people spend so much time training gunnery skills, what is this nerf about, really?

I've been in a Rupture for sometime and have very little trouble with NPC's up to 110K - biggest I've run into yet; plus all agent mission NPC's
Currently my set up is:
High, 720MM Carbine, 425MM auto cannon, 220 Vulcan - all using titanium sabot,
(2) Limo Heavies using Widowmakers, (1) Malkuth Heavy using Thunderbolts.
Mid, (2) Medium shield extenders, 10MN AB II
Low, (2) 400MM Armor - 1 crystal, 1 Nano, 3 Coprocesser 1's and 1 Reac Control 1
Gotta finish training for Co Proc 2 :-) Lately have been training up gunnery skills like surgical strike and rapid fire etc. but this load out worked even before I got those skills. Since training up Gunnery finding get better hits like the one below - first shot after the patch yesterday

Edited by: Weirda on 07/07/2004 21:09:34
Since patch Weirda use the following for NPC (got a 350k without damage just yesterday)...
Hi
1x720 w/Uranium
2x650 w/Proton
2xMalkuth Heavy (1xWidow, 1xHavok)
1xLimos Standard (whatever is lying around)
Med
10mn MWD
M Shield Booster
Tracking Comp
Low
1xGyro
1xCoPro (grrrr)
1xSensor Booster (farther lock)
1xNano I (better agile and speed)
1xCPR
Could be wrong on the low slots (can't remember if was able to get copro out of there or not - always futzing with low slots)...
This setup hits for very good damage from about 40k out to about 15k - it start becoming very hard to track inside there, with MWD though you can own the range - and at that distance, they not hitting you much even with sig increase (mwd nice for collecting up loot too afterward). Hunting mostly 45k and up with this setup (largest was a 350k) and don't seem to have too much problems hitting little guys (5k frigs) from range.
Thinking about taking the shield booster out since rarely hit with anything - but it a good backup in case of a bad jump in or something. Also finding that having the nanofiber in low slot make the ship substantially more agile!
Mids and lows can easily be reconfigured a bit if you and some warp core stabs or web/warp jammer in there (just in case) - but as long as you feel confident about owning the range (or the system you hunting in) try to optimize more for damage... w/npc killing time is isk!

650mm scouts are good, except I haven't been able to find one for ages. Lost mine when tried tanking Shmidt on my Rupture  before I figured out a good setup post-nerf.

This is the setup I have been using for about 5 days now: It is a close range armor tanking fit that is an absolute blast to play against NPCs.
High:
3x 425mm Prototype I loaded with Phased Plasma
1 x Malkuth Heavy Launcher loaded with Widows
Mid:
Med SB 2
Named Med Shield Extender
10MN AB 2
Low:
Named Med Armor Repairer
2x 400mm Rolled Tungsten (560HP each)
Gyro 2
Tracking Enhancer 2
I end up with ~1562 Shields and 2495 Armor
To be blunt, I can armor tank anything that I will find up to 350k rats (haven't found anything higher since I started using this fit) . When I get within about 8-10k everything dies, and with my autos firing every 2 seconds everything dies very very fast. You could prolley lose the shield extender and throw in a tracking computer for even better results.
I recommend this fit for moderately skilled rupture owners that want to have a blast.
Did I mention that this fit is fun as hell?

Good question. The only way I can muster the CPU to fit another turret or launcher on is to remove my med shield extender (which I use to allow thw NPCs to eat my shield and while I am ABing into range). As it is now, my grid and cpu are under max, but not close enough to even fit a nosferatu on :/

LOL, if you remove the shield extender and put on the mwd it's a 2x negative (not a positive!) Of course with an mwd it would be much faster to get in range.
I will be playing around with my setup later today. Wanna see how much better close range is. Kiting is getting boring :)
Currently I am running 3x720,malkuth standard and 2 heavy limos in high. Mwd, medium cl-5 booster and activated sensor booster in medium. Low I have 2xcap relays, 2x PDU 1s and 1 RCU 1. Successful against all level 3 agent missions, including 2 infernos

Ok, I set up another fit last night for S&G's. See how you like this one too. It is not as exciting as the close range fit, but it is still pretty fun.
High:
1 - 650mm 'Scout'(Plasma)
1 - 650mm Gallium(Plasma)
1 - 650 Standard un-named(Plasma) :(
Limos Heavy Launcher (Widows)
Limos Compact (Defenders) - I do not know why so many people do not like defenders. I did not get hit with even so much as one missle with 4 missle rats on me 
Mid:
Med SB 2
Cap Recharger
10MN AB 2
Low:
Gyro 2
Tracking Enhancer 2
F-AQ Delay Line (More tracking/range = gud)
Inefficient Med Armor Repairer
RCU or PDU (cannot recall offhand)
Turret effective range begins at about 35-40 km scratching for 35+. (had one wrecking for 115 at this range)
Once you hit ~20KM it increases to an average shot dmg of 70-100 (had a few wreckings for 200+ at 14-20km).
Good hitting ability and damage all the way into 10km. Inside 10 you start missing alot, but hey THAT is what the heavies are for :)
Oh, and I can still armor tank anything you might find in the .2 system I hunt in everyday.
Happy Hunting!

ok thnx for all your replies. will try and find all this named stuff lol. Also the title asks for set-ups with the rifter as well, so if neone has a decent set-up i would like that as well.
Again thnx for all the set-ups, gonna try them all out as soon as i have the zyd for my tempest (need it for the financing of getting everything i need here lol)

Here is my rifter setup.
1x125mm 1x150mm (scout if posibile) 2 rocket launchers.
1 10nm ab + 1 small shield buster
1 reactor control and power grid thing.
power grid is 47/48 with my skills
total speed is 2070, orbiting at around 1200m/s at 1.5k
the only think that can even hit me is 12.5k rats blood archon. but they do 2-3 damage. cruisers aren't realy a problem. rocket launchers are really nice they hit every time within 8k range. very fast also.
i use emp or phased phasma. when i use emp -50% range i orbit at 50k. also light misiles don't seem to be able to hit me. rifter is really great. have solod more than 150k spawn. sometimes u need to get out and come back.

i use emp or phased phasma. when i use emp -50% range i orbit at 50k. also light misiles don't seem to be able to hit me. rifter is really great. have solod more than 150k spawn. sometimes u need to get out and come back.

Dexter - you still fit MWD instead of oversized AB? I've followed the crowd and moved to the AB but I'm having trouble getting all my other toys onto the rifter now (still 4 days before I can fit an aux power core). For rat hunting/agenting how much of a problem is the increased sig radius from the MWD?
Thanks

not as big of a problem as most would lead you to beleive, if you use a cruiser AB on a frigate guns wont hit you, if you use a 1mn mwd guns still dont hit you if you fly your ship correctly, keep transversal speed up etc..
with only 2 lo slots on the rifter i prefer to not use a micro aux since i find a small armour repairer to be more beneficial when in PvP or PvE since you can always break off the fight to repair if you fly smart enough..
when the individual sized ab`s and mwd`s came out with castor it was a enw thing, then eventualy players got smart and fitted oversized ab`s to their frigs to save cap and sheild points,, now that new thing has become old and to be different these days you have to fit the mwd again since everyone is running around with ab`s you will have a loverly speed advantage in combat also

Done this before (in forum) will state it again:
Hi
3x280
1xStandard ML (or Rocket launcher w/defenders if you paranoid)
Med
1xSm Shield Boost
1xHardener against damage type of rat
Low
1 Micro Aux Powercore
1xGryo (if you have cpu) or 1xNanofiber I
You will be cruising over 500m/s (unassisted) and can easily be immortal with you shield hardener and booster against up to 45k rats (even missile ones - since they don't pack heavies till higher)
Really like this setup - plenty of cap and real low maintenance.
Good luck in space!
