Put your fit into EFT. Swap between the two modules and look at: Mobility, Warp Out time (hover over align time), Signature, EHP.

Choose which of the factors is most important to you.



This is how I do it... use the tools that players take the time to make for you, so you dont have to come here and ask and wait for us to give you a link or an answer... sigh.

higgs rigs ftw btw... :)

A higgs rig lowers aligntime as well, by 11%.


Higgs lowers it by massively boosting inertia, which will penalize with stabs. Plus I doubt he'd want to be moving at 10 m/s to dock at a station.

If you want align time reduction and don't care about mass/speed, a medium low friction nozzle joint will work better than a medium higgs anchor. The higgs does give a large improvement to inertia modifier that is counteracted by the mass increase.

A Mastodon with a single Medium Higgs Anchor aligns in 16.2 seconds.
A Mastodon with a single Medium Low Friction Nozzle Joint I aligns in 15.9.
The difference between these is only 0.3 seconds.

A Mastodon with a single Medium Higgs Anchor and three inertial Stabilizers II aligns in 11.2 seconds.
A Mastodon with a single Medium Low Friction Nozzle Joint I and three inertial Stabilizers II aligns in 10.2.
The difference between these is a full second.

So yeah, don't use a higgs unless you're you want the velocity decrease.

The conditions for achieving warp are...

- your ship's trajectory aligning within 3 to 5 degrees of your intended destination
- having between 75% to 125% of max speed.
The <125% of max speed requirement is a myth, there's no upper limit to your speed to enter warp, just a lower limit at 75% of your current max speed.

Just look at your ship's speed when you insta-warp to an undock bookmark just after being spit out of any station.

Or align, turn on mwd, turn it off, make sure it's off (cycle ended), try to warp while your ship's speed is still way higher than your base speed.

Correct.

Largely useless on haulers that can fit ABs instead, and useless on BRs, Tier 1 Tech 1 haulers. Pirate

No, actually it is completely useless due to high mass to inertia ratio on haulers - as you've shown, a single Inertia Mod or Rig improves align times more, with none of the drawbacks.

...And they all crave one thing - ISK. ¤
