this is in defence mode.. who said slow??


The ship gets a mwd speed bonus, unlike all other t3ds, meaning when you actually get a fight you are going to be scrammed, leaving you at sub bc speed. A normal cruiser is fast then you, not to mention almost everything else, a single web comet is faster then your fit it is scram range.


at 5m/s whitin web/scram range faster what makes you think there will be any sort of "running" away from? Get back in line dude!

Thats a propless ship with 1 less web and its faster then the hecate, almost eveything with a scram can get away from it or keep it in range. Its a good ship but it isnt op like the svipul.

Agreed.

To elaborate further. People do not seem to realise how much you can exploit its poor range and none existent range control.

Neutrons + Null is 3.2+4.4 km in Defensive (7.6km).
Ions + Null is 2.6 + 3.5 in Defensive (6.1km).

Neutrons + Null is 5.2+4.4 km in Sharpshooter (9.6km).
Ions + Null is 4.4 + 3.5 in Sharpshooter (7.9km).

Dual rep fits (have to fit Ions/Electrons) are laughable as they can be pinned by any standard Scram kite frigate in the game and held indefinitely for enough backup to break its tank. Not to mention if you run into a scram kiter with a TD (Optimal Range Script) you are going to be stuck until he gets bored.

Imo Single Rep Neutron/Full Hull dual web neutron or even a TE are required to ensure you can clear frigates scram kiting you with ease. This in turn means your tank suffers greatly as you have to either remain in sharpshooter/only fit a single rep. But hey who cares when your clearing 500 dps with Null to scram range :p.

As Wolf said Svipul is far more OP. They can sit in defense mode tanking absurd damage hitting well out to edge of scram range in defensive mode (albeit for less damage).
