Was thinking about trying out this Enyo setup in solo piracy. Question is, is it worth it over say, a Thorax or Vexor? EFT stats: 7.4k EHP, 42 dps tanked, 213 dps.

My attempts to solo in an AF lean towards dying in horrible and embarrasing ways. I find it works very well when combined with other support and is an alternative tackler to inties. Not a solo ship though.

Post-patch, AFs are finally useful ships, but the Enyo isn't. Fly an Ishkur instead, and don't use an AB/7.5km for anything, especially not solo piracy. ----------- Blaster sig removed for now, pending those "changes we've been working on all day". CCP, don't screw this up.

I still have idiots closing on me in a wolf with an AB/scrambler. That may change down the road but right now there's quite a few people who still hit approach and F1-F8 (or just F1 now)

My corpmate and I were out looking at trying out the Enyo, and he shared with me this PVP fit.
He's completely off his rocker, but we were able to take out dozens of cruisers and even HAM launching tech 2 passive drake with his wonky setup, and my more reasonable setup.
Granted the Enyo is not as versatile as the Ishkur, but the Enyo stands out in its ability to dish our some ungodly DPS.
Here is what he sent me via email. I lolled until I saw it work.
[Enyo, Tanked for Gank] Shadow Serpentis Magnetic Field Stabilizer Centii A-Type Small Armor Repairer Internal Force Field Array I Dark Blood Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane
Gistii A-Type 1MN Afterburner Dread Guristas Warp Disruptor
Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Caldari Navy Rocket Launcher, Caldari Navy Phalanx Rocket
Hybrid Collision Accelerator I Hybrid Burst Aerator I
Hobgoblin II x1
I stuck to a more conservative setup, and here it is:
[Enyo, Gank] Magnetic Field Stabilizer II Centii C-Type Small Armor Repairer Adaptive Nano Plating II Reactive Plating II
Warp Scrambler II Catalyzed Cold-Gas I Arcjet Thrusters
Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Ion Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S Light Neutron Blaster II, Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge S 'Arbalest' Rocket Launcher I, Gremlin Rocket
Hybrid Collision Accelerator I Hybrid Burst Aerator I
Hobgoblin II x1
He still managed to get me to buy a faction rep, but he made some very good points about the rep amount being about 25% higher. They are cheap too; you can find them for as little as 6 mil in most hubs.
In tandem with his disruptor, my scrambler moved in fast with a microwarpdrive, locked and shut off their microwarpdrives. It actually works out pretty well.
Anyway I don't think the Enyo is a horrible ship, it just needs to have someone love it enough to make it something worthwhile. ------------------ I Seem To Have Misplaced My Sig... |

As I said already in thousands of other threads, it has a 9km range now =D

Is pretty happy about it tbh. Managed to kill a dual tanked/Injected Vengence, can deffo be used as a solo ship. Remember to overload your guns and you get a nice 270 dps =) ---------- /Pretty Posting. |

Ishkur is better, but the Enyo is a good ship. Just don't get neuted.

cap stable if you dont use the active explosive, but even then the active hardener runs long enough to kill whatever needs to be killed. - FRIGANK|FRIGANK 2 |

Sadly for the Enyo, the Harpy is simply a better ship even when both are Blaster fit.
Harpy's range bonus and ability to fit web/scram gives it the edge. The Ishkur is far superior for Gallente pilots and is an excellent ship overall since almost every aspect of its performance has been boosted with QR. "I got soul but I'm not a soldier" |

Edited by: Rudy Metallo on 22/11/2008 18:30:04 No.
4x Light Neutron II w/ Null/CN AM
1x AB II 1x Scram II
2x MFS II 1x Reactive plating II 1x 200mm RT
Trade scram for a web and find a tackler if need be.
This setup with bend you over and **** you sideways, espeacially with a tackler.
Editted for my own stupidity

I was under the impression it was the Ishkur if you had max drone skills. It certainly used to be but may have changed when Bandwidth came in. I don't use EFT so I I could be very wrong.

The enyo's biggest weakness in solo pvp is that it cannot fit a web (only 2 midslots). This means that in many cases you will not be able to dictate transversal / range. Jag, Blarpy, Ranis, Ishkur etc are great choices for solo piracy.
If you limit your targets to cruisers, you can get away without a web but then you really want a cap booster for when you get neuted, which again you can't fit due to lack of mids.
The Wolf is marginally better than the Enyo because it's higher speed partially makes up for not having a web, and the Retribution is just WTF.

I have goten plenty of tackles with an enyo or an ishkur.
Typically I will use 3 ions II and a rocket launcher.
mwd, scrambler or weber or disruptor depending on what you want to do.
sar II, dcu II MFS II and overdrive.
Cant remember exactly but that was my typical fit.

from my experience (beeing a pirate on and off for 4 years) it sucks to fly anything frig sized in piracy due to basic facts that you will get juicy targets on gates but you cant engage cause sentries will kill you, so my suggestion is to train for a Phobos instead, dual sensor boost and a very nice tank, go have fun!! :D

Post-patch the Enyo suffers from the same problems all blasterboats do, and has the additional drawback of only having two midslots, basically forcing you to forgo a web. Falloff bonus makes Null somewhat viable though.
Despite all that it looks it could be an awesome FW frig gang ship (as gate guns aren't a concern in FW, save for stopping people jumping back through them), solo, maybe it'd be good for hit-and-run ganks on empire wartargets, I wouldn't take it out into lowsec solo though, it'll either get shot to pieces from the MWD sig bloom trying to get into range or it won't be able to get into range in time to engage any kind of missile boat using an AB, if it can get to range at all.
