Sokratesz Rionnag Alba Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.26 15:33:00 - [31] 1200's are better in almost every respect for PVE. - Easier fitting - Better DPS - Better tracking Wyvern & Chimera fitting flowchart
Drake Draconis Minmatar Brutor tribe	Posted - 2008.11.26 17:18:00 - [32] why,how?
Sokratesz Rionnag Alba Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.26 18:15:00 - [33] Originally by: Drake Draconis why,how? Look at the numbers? 1400 clip size is so stupidly small you'll spend alot of time reloading which cuts into your DPS significantly. Tracking is better by default, and you don't need the little bit of extra range in PVE anyway. Wyvern & Chimera fitting flowchart
Drake Draconis Minmatar Brutor tribe	Posted - 2008.11.26 18:37:00 - [34] Hmm.... well from what I've observed... yes.. reload times are longer. But they hit harder... granted not as frequently... but they DO hit harder. Guess I'll have to see for myself. : O )
Ghengis Tia	Posted - 2008.11.26 22:03:00 - [35] Base range of 1400 II's is 23% greater than 1200 II's. This essentially negates the better tracking of the 1200's, as the farther you are from the target the faster he has to move to outrun your tracking. The trick, of course, is to make sure you are farther away from your target. Thus the piloting skills needed for a Mael make it a hands-on experience vs missile boats. I head either directly at or directly toward a target to minimize transversal. TBH, my experience with 1200's are on my Typhoon, and I am not really impressed with them. I expect it may be the lack of Gyros, as on a 'Phoon' the lows are full of your armor tanking mods. Need to get my Mael out more though, I'm getting lazy flying my CNR.
Sokratesz Rionnag Alba Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.27 10:59:00 - [36] Range doesn't matter much though because you have a huge (44km) faloff Wyvern & Chimera fitting flowchart
Stegreen Gallente	Posted - 2008.11.27 12:36:00 - [37] 1400 does have a much stronger burst damage specialy on really long ranges, i fit 11 rounds in the 1400 plasma i beleve im using and you can take out battleships before they even get close enough to do any sugnificant damage, I've been training drone skills for the frigs and cruisers witch have been working out well still i dont think i would go with 3 rigs for resists, rather 1 ccc1 or 2 ccc1 and one or two resist rigs and or a shield rig with 3 resists in rig slots you will loose quite a bit of cap when you need to repair heavyly, you pull 3 groups instead of 1 as we all know missions even if you know the missions they will do a little what they want to do anyhow time to time and once scrammed and the groups close in faster than you can get rid of the frigs I'd vote for other rigs than just resist rigs Steg.
Sokratesz Rionnag Alba Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.11.27 13:42:00 - [38] resist rigs are never worth it over cap rigs Wyvern & Chimera fitting flowchart
EinaruS Euphoria Released	Posted - 2008.11.27 14:20:00 - [39] Originally by: Galan Undris Turrets have always been better at popping small stuff than missiles when handled correctly, it shouldn't come as a suprise now. wrong - A finger...especially the middle one, is worth more than any amount of isk
Maverick 52 Fusion Enterprises Ltd Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2008.11.28 03:46:00 - [40] Edited by: Maverick 52 on 28/11/2008 03:50:46 Originally by: Sokratesz resist rigs are never worth it over cap rigs I'm gonna have to disagree with that. If you take my setup, which only uses a heavy cap booster to regain cap, you don't want CCC's. Capacitor safeguards? Maybe, but I'd still go resist rigs. Simple fact is the cap rigs won't let you perma tank, and the time added to your tank by the rigs isn't significant enough. An extra 15 seconds to boost versus 250 more DPS tanked? I can see using CCC's if you wanted a perma tank setup, but your tank would be far weaker causing you to need to boost constantly. I think the great thing about the Mael is that you can rapidly repair a lot of damage in one or two bursts of the XL shield booster. The way it normally works with me is... 1) Lots of incoming damage after initial aggro (if rats are in range) 2) As I take down the web/scram and DPS dealers, I am boosting semi-frequently. Not perma, but enough to dent my cap. 3) Some DPS dealers and web/scram are gone, damage is significantly decreased. Boosting less frequently, this causes my cap to regen between boosts as my capacitor is closer to it's optimal recharge. 4) Mop up.

AKA-AHN KINGDOM	Posted - 2008.11.30 18:51:00 - [41] Mael PVE Set up from the Caldari Pilot High: 8x 800mm or 8x 1200mm Mid: Large Shield Booster II, 2/2 (active/passive tank), AB or Tracking Computer with tracking script Low: 2x Gyro Stab II, Tracking Enhancer II, 2x PDU II Rigs: 3x CCC rigs Drones: 5x Valkyrie TP-600 5x Warrior II 5x hobgob II I have a sustained defense of 225 DPS and the light drones will pop most/all frigs by the time you pop a BS and the TP drones make hitting the cruisers easier ~~~~~~~ Join WHP We are a miner/production Corp.
Caleb Marathon	Posted - 2009.02.10 16:07:00 - [42] I'm usin this with GREAT SUCCESS: High: 1200s med: AB II, LSB II, invul II, 2 hards II, 1 faction tracking computer. Low: 3 x faction gyrostabs, 1 dc II, 1 tracking enhancer II I don't have such a mighty tank as most of your setups. But I promise I run my missions a lot faster. If one just have a cool head and reads up on the mission it's no problem doing them with this kind of tank, plus I get so much better tracking and DPS than all these scared supertankers.
Krustofsky Minmatar	Posted - 2009.02.10 16:38:00 - [43] Here¦s my setup I run all Lvl 4 with (currently set up for Guristas - switch hardeners): [Maelstrom, Mael PvE] Gyrostabilizer II Gyrostabilizer II Gyrostabilizer II Tracking Enhancer II Tracking Enhancer II Caldari Navy X-Large Shield Booster Shield Boost Amplifier II Invulnerability Field II Ballistic Deflection Field II Heat Dissipation Field II 100MN Afterburner II 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L 1400mm 'Scout' Artillery I, Republic Fleet Titanium Sabot L Capacitor Control Circuit I Capacitor Control Circuit I Capacitor Control Circuit I Hammerhead II x5 Warrior II x5 Hobgoblin II x5 For some missions (Recon 1 maybe) you can switch the Afterburner for a Cap Booster.
Spaztick Canadian Imperial Armaments Veritas Immortalis	Posted - 2009.02.10 18:34:00 - [44] If you are not fitting 1400s on this, I think you need to train AWU more and get better gunnery skills.
Caleb Marathon	Posted - 2009.02.10 18:59:00 - [45] 1400's are lame. Serious. You get worse tracking PLUS the clipsize is ridicolous. I'd take 1200's over 1400's any day except for sniping in a pvp situation.
Daemien Murdoc	Posted - 2009.02.10 23:11:00 - [46] I havent done missions for ages and sold my mael long time ago, but i guess it looked something like this Highs 81200mm Arty Medium Republic Fleet XL-booster 2x invus + boost amp (sometimes used 1xinvu + 2xspecific) (something, i think it was cap rech) Lows 2x gyros 3x CFC 3CCC I think it was the low cap usage of the RF booster which allowed easily permarun it. Costs around 120mil guess?
Stealth Magnate Minmatar Macabre Votum	Posted - 2009.03.09 22:11:00 - [47] Edited by: Stealth Magnate on 09/03/2009 22:13:29 8X1200 T2's with EMP L usually 2 shield boost amp II's Republic Fleet XL Sbooster (294 act/1178 boost)4:1 boost return 2 Invul II's 1X100mn AB II, or faction if you can afford 3Xgyro II's 2XPDS II's - 5Xhammer II's 5Xsmall II's - 2XCCC 1Xcore defense field extender, or another CCC this is a relatively solid for Min BS5, T2 skilled pilot, first upgrades would be to a faction large booster, faction AB, gyros etc
