Could use experienced opinions on a stealth bomber fit question.

At this point I can fit either of these pairs of items:

A) A torp +dmg implant + AB

B) A +cpu implant + MWD

Basically is the MWD worth losing 3%(later 5%) +torp dmg?

yes it is. Cause When every ship in the game is faster than you and kills you, you loose 100% damage.

MWD or die.

Depends on what you're doing.
Solo camping systems and ganking ratters? Use the AB and torp damage.
Everything else? Use a MWD.

thanks! I'll take the lack of disagreement as unanimous consent

With Weapon upgrades V and Missiles rigging IV you can fit a MWD AND a torp damage implant in a typical Hound.

I wouldn't waste an implant slot to fit a bomber.

Is your fit something quite special, or perhaps your fitting-related skills could do with a little bit of love.

If you're solo you need to kill them fast and keep your signature radius down so you live long enough to do so. I'd actually say always damage + AB for solo work, but in a fleet where you have backup and defenders the MWD gives you the speed burst to put your friends between you and the angry dudes you just bombed.

A SB won't be outrunning anything that it needs to run from with or without a mwd. If it's a good time to turn on the mwd, it's a good time to bail. If you can't warp out, it's over anyway. The sig bloom will just get you pwned by some big boat getting lucky. You won't always be at the right transversal all the time.

fit mwd only if youre planing bombing runs
AB + medium shield extender (most often meta 4), meta 4 launchers and everything to get max possible dps; you dont need mwd - you will not decloak/atack anything thats faster than you, youre bomber - youre supposed to attack big targets BS (or rating bs. bs, tech 3 etc; not many raters have propulsion mod)
