Have heard fleeting good reports but actual user info is scarce. Can anyone who has owned one give me some low-down on what can be done with those extra slots after lasers? All info is useful, cheers.

The Bhaalgorn is a Blood ship, they suck life (cap) out of other ships. After layzors you put neuts on the damn thing or else you've just got a very expensive geddon.

The other highslots are good for neuts and Noses, bhaal is a capwhore anyways that is within the PVP range.

If you are flying with a gang (i sure hope you are, otherwise tell me where you hang out), then pick weather you want to put an energy transfer or an RR in there. 1 bhaal + 1 guardian = endless cap chain.

PVE wise people use it in incursions, since it gets web range bonuses, and the extra highslots are good to solidify cap chains and whatnot.

I have read the ship info, thus i am aware of both the ships discription and it's stats.. If we all flew only the one perfect fit for each ship EvE would be a boring place. To this end i have asked the forum comunity to assist me in a "Discussion" regarding my potential billion isk purchase, which i think you'll agree is a wise choice with any large investment.

Thanks everyone good stuff :)

I for one am currently preparing to build a Bhaalgorn for WH PVP in a gang setting as the flagship for said gang. I'm going to use it primarily as a tackler/neutralizer and tank the bejesus out of it since everyone and thier uncle will primary the hell out of it. I've spent most of my EVE career buidling up the skill base to fly one correctly so its a big step up for me. I really love the Geddon hull and can't wait to get my Bhaalgorn shot up. To answer your question though. It is a Cap sucking, PVP boat built to kill other cap hungry ships. Anything you do with it that doesn't not have cap draining, pointing, and killing other ships in mind is a waste of a very expensive ship.

Using it for PVE would be like driving a Ferrari in South Central LA, best not get too attached to it. Everyone wants a faction kill on their killmail. This goes for all of the faction ships in the game IMO. Buy them/Build them with the expectation that'll they will be killed eventually.

I'm hoping to get a couple weeks and a few kills out of mine. Anything more than that will be gravy.

Hence my intention to use it in a WH Evil It'll be *somewhat* less flashy there as opposed to say Lowsec.
