Ello,
I'd love to try my hand at sniping, since it seems like a pretty fun concept to one hit everything below a Battlecruiser. I get the impression that the most important stats to have are number of turret slots, optimal range and lock times. Now I've been through the database and to me, the ship that stands out with these characteristics is the Matari Ragnarok. This is my trial fit, and really my first dab at sniping, so please don't hesitate to point out flaws.
Ragnarok:
Highs- 6x Quad 3500mm Siege Artillery with Angel's Titanium Sabot, Cloaking Device II, Gjallarhorn. Mids- 4 Cormack's Sensor Booster, 3 Cormack's Tracking Computer Lows- 3 Tobias's Tracking Enhancer, 3 Tobias's Gyrostabiliser Rigs- 2 Locus Accelerator II, Locus Accelerator I Drones- 5 Garde II (just in case they get close)
According to EFT, this gives me an awesome 10,122 volley damage (though a paltry 1132 DPS), as well as a 200mm Scan Resolution. Its pretty good considering the payload. And of course, it can lock to 250km (not that noobish ). And if things get real hairy, I can always use the Gjallarhorn to wipe up any leftover hitpoints.
So, any advice for my setup? Is there a better way to maximise my damage?

Yes, get a phoenix. It has a better alpha. -- 249km locking? |

I did consider the Phoenix, and the alpha is jaw dropping (76k! Yes please!).
Unfortunately, to get that sort of damage I need a Siege module, which really gimps over my targetting. That sort of alpha is awesome, but only if I can lock a target to fire it on.
Still, thanks for the advice! _________________________________________ Animals have the right to be tasty.

Look at your tracking aswell.

You started a thread about sniping cruisers and frigates in a Titan. Can you seriously be that bored?

Instead of a Titan, might I suggest buying a phoenix and a rapier alt to hold your target while you alpha him?

Ummm if you want to show off wealth and l337 snipering prowes without sounding like a completely ridiculous ****** for everyone to laugh at suggest some Vargour with officer ****e or something like that...
Arguably my opinions represent to an extent the opinions of my alliance and in particular circumstances give rise to a valid "casus belli" claim. |

Hmmm .... Maybe its just me but ... with a fit that expensive ...
I would ditch one or two tracking enhancer for a cap rep and maybe a damage control ... Flying something that expensive with a kleenex tank would worry me a little ... but thats just me.

Phone systems will automatically dump any excess #'s over 11*, so it would still work ^.^
*Anti-Troll: For 1-800 yes... international #'s don't have the 1800 prefix...so they aren't dropped after 11. and you know what, for the love of god stop reading my sig \o/ |
