nanofiber structure VS overdrive injector

nanofiber structure increases your speed, agility, but reduces your ehp.
overdrive injector increases your speed more, and reduces your cargo space.
They both requires a low slot and 0 cpu/PG.
Which one should I fit on a pvp frigate that has a spare low slot and few cpu/PG left?

Elaborate on "PvP frigate" please.
What frigate and are you a brawler or a coward?

Hop on the test server, try both and figure out what you like for your situation.

ok, in my case, a brawler.

For mobility nano>overdrive because while an OD gives you more speed you are almost never actually at that speed but are constantly turning and so agility matters too, which means that in reality a nano gives you more speed then a OD does.


There are some reasons to fit a OD (hull tanks, dont want to lose ehp, line speed is the only thing you care about for getting away/scram kiting). However, afaik there isnt a single (good) brawling frigs where a nano or an OD is the proper thing to fit. Try something different first.

For me the decision usually boils down to align time.

If fitting a a nano (or istab) instead of an overdrive drops my align time (with prop mod OFF) below the next whole second, I'll fit one. Otherwise I'll but on the overdrive (as my brawler is looking for speed to tackle a guy before he can warp off/crash a gate).

But the above statements are true--when it doubt a nano is probably the way to go, as the speed + agility might not look like the best in raw stats, it's typically better in actual application, when you actually orbit faster because you can turn tighter at higher speed.

Personally I only use an OD when I'm using multiple speed mods. As with most things in eve if you want to max an attribute out its best to have mods with as high stats as possible (Like DPS, A T2 Damage rig gives more than a Damage mod once you hit 3-4 other damage mods) .

My Inty has a nano, a Poly and and OD. Just enough speed that almost all drones can't keep up.

If its just 1 then a Nano is almost always best

This. Plus a nano gets you to speed faster. iirc, from zero speed, it takes around a 100km before the OD catches up to and passes the nano, all else being equal.

However, for a brawler with just a little fitting, (guessing armor) use this. Adaptive Nano Plating II. 1 pg, 0 pg. basically the goto for frig resistance increases.

ok, so this is my overall fitting.

[Merlin, Active Merlin]
Damage Control II
Overdrive Injector System II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II

1MN Afterburner II
Warp Scrambler II
Fleeting Compact Stasis Webifier
Medium Ancillary Shield Booster

Light Neutron Blaster II
Light Neutron Blaster II
Light Neutron Blaster II

Small Ancillary Current Router I
Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer II
Small Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer II




Void S x240
Navy Cap Booster 50 x9

just want to try something different from the MSE merlin. If my ship can last 30s, that MASB will give more hp than a MSE II.

For that an OD probably is better as all you care about is getting up close to the enemy frigate and do blaster dps.

I might be going on a tangent but about about Inertial stabs? I barley ever see them in fits, why is that?
Turning and being agile at high speeds seem profitable. Thoughts?

That would probably be to help stay at close range during aggressive maneuvers, you can turn Sharper and hug them with a lighter frame body.

An Inertia Stabilizer II increases your sig 11%
