Grabtharr	Posted - 2004.07.21 20:24:00 - [1] Originally by: Xanz Trust me when I say Ronyo knows how to fly and fit a Taranis. Sorry, whether or not he thinks he can fly a Taranis, hes giving bad advice. Using an MWD on a frig anymore is just plain stupid. With a good cheap names 10mn AB you can get 3k out of a Taranis and not show up like a cruiser to the guns of the enemy. Tried and tested here. I have ceptor 5 and can fly Minmatar and Gallente interceptors and ABs are the only option unless your doing courier missions

Grabtharr	Posted - 2004.07.21 20:31:00 - [3] Originally by: Juan Andalusian Originally by: jukriamrr look guys, this originally was a post on how to fit a taranis. not knowing who has the biggest.. rooster rooster :) Ok i wouldn't touch those loadouts you suggested with a 10 foot pole. (for PvP... even with a scrambler instead of a Shield booster) 1mn MWD > 10mn AB. Ever tried hitting a battleship that is moving at a trasversial of 2500m/s? Webbed? means you are in range why is yer MWD still on? you were MWD orbitting a missile BS and got webbed? AB or MWD same deal if it scrambled as well you die. Approaching? Large turrets can't hit you anyway. Mediums might get a couple of hits. Why are you locked before you reached orbit distance? You picked the wrong target at the wrong distance. Extra shield? rofl. Extra Cap? the low slots saved with the use of a MWD will counter that. Imho Ions > Neutrons. Lighter loadouts, better tracking, better damage if loaded properly. Taranis is a ****y PvE ship. You can PvE quite easily in a Taranis with the following: 3x Gauss proto 125s 1 fleeting prog webber 1 named 10mn AB 1 cap II 2 micro aux and a mag stab II.

And do you orbit with your AB/MWD turned on? On and off Depends on the fight and the ship No sense shooting missles if both can outrun unless you web in wich cas he webs you then its a race to the finish of your ship. Ive never lost an interceptor to frig or another interceptor...just get caught between a rock and a hard place...usually vastly superior forces and boredom.

Grabtharr	Posted - 2004.07.22 06:47:00 - [7] Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I have a strong preference for the 10mn AB, but thats mainly due to my fighting style. For 1v1 interceptor combat, a MWD is better. I've always been more interested in picking off frigates while battleships look on, or killing indys that have battleships running cover, that type of thing. For that, a MWD would very rapidly get me very dead. Being able to just pick a belt and blast NPCs with the same setup that I use for PVP doesnt hurt either. Thats exactly my point and my style too. Pick off a target amongst BS, its fun to watch them waste ammo. With the MWD they can hit you just fine
