So ive been flying around in my jag and wolf a little since Ishkur Rise was released, and hell i cant think of a way to take it down i mean i cant fit lolbombs cause even if i did have cap for it and the ishkur pilot didnt just recall his drones it whould take about a minute to take out a set of warrior II's with it.
I cant beat him in by simply trying to do business as usual (load up barrage try to tank his drones and take him out while avoiding his blasters in my falloff range).
So all in all i need HAPL on how to take out an Ishkur with either a Wolf or a Jaguar... or should i simply just bring friends?

Well, first off they are highly resistant to Kinetic damage, so Barrage is not the best choice. I always preferred to get in close with EMP or Hail ammo. Both tear them down fast. Hail you need to make sure you do not let him start a close orbit though.

What i mustve been misinformed, there IS an actual use for Hail ammo post nerf? and with hail wont that put you in blasters optimal, and that plus his drones will outgank you?

400mm plate adds a LOT of HP. =)
Same with the Jags MSE.
And yes, Hail has uses. Mostly vs Gallente t2.

Edited by: yakks on 04/12/2008 21:00:21 Since Quantum Rise, I have yet to meet any other solo AF to beat my Ishkur either on tranquility or on Sisi. The only AF that gives me a run for my money are the Amarr AFs and the main issue with them are their tank and the range on their lasers. The best way to beat an Ishkur is either to stay out of my blaster range while taking out my drones(all 10 of them) then go in for the kill. Or use ECM before I can deploy my drones. These are just a few ways I can think of at the moment.

If you can't kill him before his drones take you out...take out his drones. While doing that just hope he's got rails and not blasters. Otherwise he will fry your bottocks while you are dealing with his drones.
Don't forget that those babies have guns + drones.
I pretty much follow the rule that if it's a droneboat, bring friends. Stop whining. |

The Wolf will do slightly less DPS (187 vs 210), this includes drones. It will have almost 2x the EHP, and able to rep.
Go ahead and close to blaster range if you want. Those 150's will have no trouble tracking.

Wolf can't tank 5 warrior IIs plus 170 gun dps. Not in my experience anyway.

170 DPS is pretty much you saying you have EFT balls. When it comes down to it you maybe get half that.

dunno how a jaguar with 2x medium extenders would do? you get 11-12k ehp ? not tryed to fight a ishkur with it but they are a pain to kill
3x 150mm II, rocket ? ab, point, 2x med extander 2x gyro, maux (maybe a dcu?) kin + exp resist rigs or core field extenders..
its fast and should be able to kill ze drones.. --------

That DPS difference is the Wolf and the Iskur with drones accounted for.
The DPS difference is not that much. The Wolf has a bunch more EHP. And yes, I have and will kill Iskurs in Wolves and Jags. But to show numbers you have to look at them each on paper.
Wolf > Iskur if you know what you are doing. I would personally use RF EMP, damage is almost the same, and it cuts through the tank just as well.

true, but then I can only assume that the same is relatively true of the ishkur. I'd probably use rf emp as well because i wouldn't wanna get kited by an ishkur with a t2 web and overdrive injector. "SPEED + GANK = SPANK... Spank that ***** up" |

well/ i can't see it above. but
most iskurs like to go with a small armor rep. wolf works best passive with a dmg ctrl 400 plate and exp hardener. for this job at least exp hardeners makes his warrior II's laughable dps. your next trick is for that spare high you have. you need to squeeze a small neut on there.
then just go in for the kill. dont ever waste your time trying to kill its drones. warrior IIs are a ***** to hit evenn for 125 autos . negate his drones with an exp hardener and you win on overall dps.
tried and tested. the mwd speed fitted iskur how ever . will **** you silly.

Maybe its my tracking skills but T2 AC's with RF EMP ammo wont track warrior II's even if i have webs on em. and even if i do it will have a second flight of em :/ and it will be really hard to take out the drones if i have some nano-jaguar w/ arties setup to kite the ishkur.
But thx alot for the wolf setup i will try it out.

Well i normally probe out the ishkurs when their baiting so i know that i will drop within 10 km of them, so i can rule that possibility out.

just finished training for the ishkur (or at least my alt has) and was wondering how things stack up when using EC-300 against another AS. The EC-600's i carry in my myrmidon (a little off topic i know) seem to shut down most, if not all ships I've encountered, that an the nos/neut + web/warp scram in the mids allows me to warp in behind the tackler and take over there role . Having never tried the EC-300's on anther assault ships I'm not sure of their effectiveness as of yet. if anyone has, I would be interested in how they performed. At the end of the day it doesn't matter how much DP you have if you cant us it

Considering that all AF:s have quite low sensor strength i guess you will totally pwn with.
Now how many smartbombs do i need to fit untill they go poof?

if ur flying an ishkur you should never have a problem with enemy ecm drones as you lock faster than they can get a jam on u... or even before an enemy pilot could send them on you. "SPEED + GANK = SPANK... Spank that ***** up" |
