I'm no PVP'er but I guess if I wanted to kill the little bugger could you kill it with a stealth bomber? No resetting of targeting just decloak tackle and hit it with torps or even drop a bomb...what's a venture gonna do hit you with 2 drones?

Would that work or how would you go about it stalking one in WHs?

Torps aren't going to do much damage against a frigate. Best thing to use is a destroyer.

Yeah, but locking it down you need to get it pinned fast, I was thinking 2 scrambler say sansha type would keep it from warping away a webber and whatever hits your fancy for a fourth in the mid.

I ask this because of that thread crying about a nerf because of 2 warp core strength is too much for that WH guy who wants the nerf on the venture.

I mean geesus 250/250/250 is all the tank it has it's fast and agile but not impossible to kill, even fitting rockets to your bomber would kill it (rockets I know).

Arty Rupture with a sensor booster or two.

Don't bother with scrams or webs.

Just fast lock and pop it in one shot.

2 scrambles, 3 rockets 1 gun (or 2 rockets 2 guns) SBs are the best.

Ventures have a warp core strength bonus, so you either have to get at least 3 points of warp disruption on them or alpha them. An artillery wolf would be a good choice.
