Ships & Modules

I have flown a Rokh in quite a number of caldari based missions so far and it still hasnt failed me, this is the fit i use, just shift hardeners and drones according to rats.

I have flown this and it works, but it needs implants to be cap stable. Also, don't let anyone ever tell you cap stable is overrated. It's not. Tracking and range is key with guns. A 4x mag stab fit may look good on paper, but in practice, 3x mag stab and 1x TE is better. Rokh lacks the tracking bonus the Mega hulls get, so it makes it even worse. Javelin's tracking bonus can be a god send when things start getting closer than you would like.

Thanks again for all the input! I almost feel like an expert on the subject now.

They all work, not as well as the T2 variants listed but I can use T2 guns yet. Ill probably get slammed for these fits but hey ho.

They work for me, but the Raven is better, much much better at killing BS and BC where the Rokh is better at the Frigates and Cruisers (with my skills at least)

I hope these help, even if they are which fits to avoid.

Thanks for the tips! I actually trained enough Amarr to be able to fly a Harbinger, but I still prefer the Ferox over it, for some reason. Maybe I'm still a noob lol. Not sure if I want to train Gallente because I like to RP, and well.. it just quite doesn't fit in with my corporation, hah.

I don't have a rokh, but I do own a Kronos and with Null Ammo you can use blasters in nearly every mission.

Just fit a few tracking enhancers and you are fine.

I have been looking at Blaster boats myself, and have been wondering how this would do:

4 Mag stabs and track enhancer

1 XL ASB (400 charge = 10 cycles (13300 shields)), T2 SBA, T2 Invul, 100 MN AB, Pith C medium shield booster (possibly small)

8 Large Neutron blasters T2 25km with Void 1200 dps (no drones)
59 km with Null 850 dps (no drones)

Rigs cap and ambit (T2 where possible)
Good 5% implants (damage and range)

Cap isnt great, AB would be for gates only, as major annoyance slow boating everywhere.

The medium or small rep perma runs to help soak up incoming dps, the XL reps 1300 shields, so all your shields back, give time to kill frigs, align and warp if needed. (or reload ASB)

5 second reload time, means ammo switching is less painful too.

Medium/ Small shield booster could be switch for cap booster or invul. From experience only flying a ship and testing idea's really shows how a set up would perform. EFT allows you to save you some ISK, but experience is far more important.

Idea's or suggestions welcome.

It's not that the Rokh can't do the job, it's just that other ships can do it faster.

Heck. I flew a railgun Tengu for a while. I was sick of missiles and it chews through lv3 missions (standings grind) just fine.

Exactly this. Thanks for all the help and suggestions so far, I feel like a Rokh pro heh. Maybe this will encourage some new players (much like myself) to try different ships instead of the same cookie cutter builds that everyone else is flying.

Honestly, once I got the hang of flying the Ferox I never went back to my Drake, and since there's no damage delay with gunnery I'm going through the missions so much faster. I guess it is tough at first when you're lacking the range skills for gunnery, but once you hit the 30km + mark everything in a level 3 is a joke.

Glad to hear I'm not the only crazy person on these boards
