Ships & Modules

I Dont fly amarr but I know you should round of ypur group with at least 1/4 people in an inquisitor with a logi setup

One guy in a venture.

High skill guy in bc of his choice.

Last guy in a tackling frig.

Use frigs, go to FW sistems kill people

Tormentor is good (good damage projection good tank)

imperial navy slicer is also good as a kiter and very fast (you need t2 wepons to be efectiv with it),

COERCER is the best imo as it can be very efectiv eve with t1 guns(guns,10mn ab , poit, damage control 2 heat sinks and rigs you can get huge dps in it, over 300 dps with t1 guns with t2 eve more (500)overheat of course)

T2 frigs SENTINEL - neuts mwd long point drones cap boosters, can kill solo any frig desy and some t1 cruisers

AMAR AF - both are good

AMAR ceptor ->malediction

for more info google "eve online altruist"

And like this post i want HUGS!!

For low SP guys use the punisher, executioner, coercer and inquisitor as logi back up

These are 'straight forward' amarr fighters and require far less SP to fly effectively. The tormentor, dragoon are excellent ships but require more sp to be put into drones to make them effective.

If you have a character that trains a little ewar (TD) then a crucifier can be added for more utility.

For 1v1 you could go for the Crucifier:
H:
2x Dual light pulse Laser II w/ Scorch
M:
Langour Drive Disruptor
Warp Scrambler II
Tracking Disruptor (t2 or meta), Optimal Range Script
1 MN Afterburner II
L:
Heat Sink II
EANM II
DCU II

Rigs:
Small Energy Metastasis
Small Energy Collision
Small trimark

Drones:
3x Hobgoblin II

You can orbit most frigates (especially blaster and AC fits) @ 8 km, keep them at range with web + scram while your tracking disruptor keeps you out of their weapon range. This ship is so good that it feels like an exploit...
oh..117 dps, 2923 EHP.


Or the classical Punisher fit:
H
3x Dual LIght Pulse Laser II, Scorch

M
1 MN AB II
Scram

L
Heat Sink II
ANP II
DCU II
400mm RRT plate

Rigs:
small Energy Collision
2x trimark.

Has some ridiculous 9465 EHP and 108 dps with Scorch @ 10 +1,9 or 135 dps with Faction MF @ 3,4 +1,9

I don't know much about gang compositions and whatnot, but I can heartily recommend using the Executioner, as well as forgetting all about the Punisher.

To put it simply, the Executioner is an amazing ship for destroying things, I mean annihilating other ships in seconds. The Punisher can be okay, if you manage the circumstances well enough so that you're in a situation where the enemy can't break your tank or escape and they die a slow painful death. Today, however, that just does not realistically happen most of the time. It's a much worse ship, straight up, than the Executioner.

Here is my Executioner fit.

[executioner]
Small Focused Pulse Laser II x3

Afterburner
Warp Scrambler
Stasis Webifier

Heatsink II x2
Small Armor Repairer

Edit! 1x burst rig, 1x collision rig

This beast puts out 177 dps overheated with Scorch. You just melt frigs at range. Some times you go up close against certain ships with Multifrequency dealing 222 dps overheated. I keep a Nos offlines in the last highslot; you can deactivate one gun and use the Nos to keep your cap up against certain ships, i. e. Sentinel. It still does halfway decent damage with only two guns.

I've used it in low-sec, null-sec, and high-sec. It's pretty standard and effective. You can swap a heatsink for a damage control if you're a pussy.

I've flown in RvB before and it makes a decent tackler for small scale ****, people don't expect an Executioner to be putting out that kind of death.

I just use laser turret rigs. Forgot to put those in my post.

Also about what you just said. "Executioner's only advantage is speed and in a brawl v rifter..."

Personally, I like to use my speed advantages :p
For example, an autocannon Rifter blows up about 10km away from me 10/10 times. Keep at range, minimize tracking issues, and do damage.

About the Punisher, well I just disagree with you. I had lots of problems applying damage with lasers on it, sure it has a decent 10km range, but the tracking is absolute crap, and other frigates can really take advantage of that since Punisher can't fit a web / scram / ab. Basically the problems of having low damage and not the greatest application are exacerbated by being a slow lumbering heavyweight of a frigate with only two mid-slots.

But like I've said it's got a nice tank and you can make it work in the right situations. I just don't think it's a very good ship. It might have a better place in frigate gang type situations where it can receive reps from an inquisitor or something.

Edit: I know I sound like a Punisher hater, but this is coming from someone who used to rock that **** all day before I started using the Executioner. I'd even say i'm one of the best Punisher pilots there are these days, I know that's not saying much but I think I did pretty good with it when I used it.

Oh and,


Totally agree. They've got a great variety going on right now, a good riddum

(idunno ive edited this thing like 6 times already, last time I promise)

tech 1 frigates with meta3 or less modules. Cheap and effective. Stick with the frigates with 3 medium slots. Point, AB/MWD and everyone has a different ew mod. Nothing is funnier than making a 50m SP player shoot no better than a 60k sp player with a 10k isk mod.

Tormentors are fun to fly. I prefer them to the punisher. Little less tank but its nice to be able to fit a point and web. At work at the moment and can't remember my fit.. but drop me a mail and i'll send it to you. Also check the Amarr faction warfare and RVB losses on the KB to get some ideas about fits and ships.
