During the mission worlds collide some of the BS fly in on top of you (blaster fit rat), but what are the others using that stay out 51+ km and do serious dps not sure but they always rip me up good even with a 92% resist and my skills are very good.

They usually drop large rails... Ie 350/425's. If they are hurting you, then it's because a lot of them are hitting you.

I had a lot of trouble with them initially as a passive rattler, and getting scrambled and webbed by frigates can put you into panic mode if you aren't use to it.

Just add some transversal to your tank, an afterburner even on a Domi or Rattlesnake while you circle your gardes or a gate will go a long way to keeping you out of trouble with large hybrids.

Thanks, that makes sence, yeah I hate serpentis the most, they are the toughest of all rats sometimes (atleast the BS can be) and stinking frigs can ruin your day getting scrammed while them BS pound you with rails.

Rat-issue rails. Same technology that allows spider drone IIs to web the hell out of you at 50km.

Kill frig's first while getting further away from the rest, watch your triggers by each group, no problem at all for T3.
