I'm interested to see how other folks are fitting the new little logistics ships. I've built this guy and I'm planning to run him with a newbie pilot friend just to see how it handles its primary task. Shields are beefed to make up for the lack of a booster, and the fit can run cap stable with everything on. A single gun and a drone to provide some DPS, but its main mission is repping. Thoughts or fits, fire away.

If you are trying to be a logi be a logi and don't waste slots on trying to be something else (just my 2isk ;p)

Cap stable with everything running, resists to taste depending on what you are doing.

no idea why you'd fit a 150mm auto cannon onto a logi frig.

As stated, I'll be running this alongside a newbie just to see how much effect it has. His skills and loadout aren't going to be top of the line, so I figured some extra firepower would not go amiss. That's the only reason it's not pure logi, as Eterna's excellent build reflects.

So instead of having a good logi and an underskilled but good combat frig, you're going to have a good combat frig, an almost worthless combat frigate and **** logi. Brilliant!

You probably want to fit a SSB local tank to handle whatever rat aggro goes your way, and a couple of RR to help your buddy out in the mission. Don't worry about damage - it's worth teaching him early that that's not what logis do.

I'm an idiot, don't mind me.

So noted. Extra points for a non-snarky response. I'm hoping the MSE is enough to soak any aggro that diverts my way, but I'll have an SSB fit as backup.

Iirc the ship gets a drone. That is all one needs for killmail whoring. And if you are using it to shepherd a newbie through some pve you probably should not be helping him with dps so he understands the importance of his damage dealing and how it works. At some point the training wheels will come off.

CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.
