Laris Orwan DigiLab Likes received: 61	#1 - 2012-12-08 09:40:43 UTC I'm struggling to fit it. It has 7 high slots for missiles but only enough power for 1 light missile launcher? I have all the recommended certificates though one of those is hybrid turrets? I thought this was a missile boat? What am I missing? Confused! Thanks in advance

The latter fit doesn't really have the ability of fielding a tank, and tackle would be worthless on a ship shooting at 60km - it is a gang / fleet ship as a LML boat.

That is a cruiser module. You want a Light Missile Launcher, not a Rapid Light Missile Launcher.

I just loaded up EFT and fit a Corax with 7 Light Missile Launchers.

It fits. With my skills, I'm getting 42/60 used on powergrid & 117.6/262.5 on CPU. Maybe you need to work on your skills, I dunno.... but when I change it to NO SKILLS, I get 42/48 used powergrid & 147/210 used CPU. So I really don't know what you're doing wrong.

Codie Dunier Doomheim Likes received: 50	#11 - 2012-12-08 09:50:44 UTC \| Edited by: Codie Dunier 1 Basic Light Missile Launchers require 8 PG and 25 CPU. Basic Rapid Light Missile Launchers require 50 PG and 35 CPU. You're trying to fit an oversized weapon on a ship not designed for using oversized weapons. There's your problem. Just go with Light Missile Launchers or Rocket Launchers if you want a fast Rate-of-Fire.

Here, I even just threw together a full basic fit for you to try. If you don't have the skills for the T2 stuff, use the highest meta stuff you can afford instead.

[Corax, New Setup 1]
Damage Control II
Ballistic Control System II

Small Shield Extender II
Adaptive Invulnerability Field I
1MN Afterburner II
ECCM - Gravimetric I

Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile
Light Missile Launcher I, Mjolnir Light Missile

Small Processor Overclocking Unit I
Small Processor Overclocking Unit I
Small Core Defense Field Extender I

Also, I'm pretty sure you get a kinetic damage bonus on the Corax to Scourge missiles instead of Mjolnir ones, so use those instead. Go for faction missiles, though.

No but according to that image, you are definitely trying to fit the wrong launchers, as has been mentioned above.

Nice fit. I wouldn't have thought to make a destroyer into a fast tackle ship, but there you go.

All good, mate Smile

it happens to the best of us - you should have seen me when I was new trying to figure out why my Atron wouldn't fit a 10MN Microwarpdrive Roll
