Ever since i saw this ship i fell in love with this glorious space whale, enough to say i want to keep this space whale as my staple ship.

Can anyone give me a decent fit for missions with my space whale?

And for anyone interested im calling it chunkyfun!

Their PG is lacking, hence the fleet issue phoon... but you get 1100 DPS from this setup, and you should have no issues flying around to the rats at close range and shooting them up.

Do you have another char you can train up to fit into an Exequor? That way you can really gank fit the phoon for silly DPS, and have the cruiser rep you up from 50km away :)

For a mission fleetphoon, I'd strongly recommend a cheap C-type MWD; the reduced cap penalty makes quite a big diference (and if you can get a Core C-type, the reduced activation cost as well).

Hrmmm... and I tried shield tanking my fleet phoon, so I could do this with my lows:
Gyrostab II x 3
TE II x 2-3
BCU II x 1-2
DC II or PDU II

Mids are something like:
2x specific hardeners 1x invuln, 1x booster

rigs to taste

Of course, then it lacks speed, but its guns project damage much better

And yes, it is a beautiful ship.Oops

Not just a whale, but a Narwhal Big smile Some day maybe we will be able to use the tusk to ram and spike other ships for a ship kill and podding at the same time P

I would desperately love to create a killer typhoon, unfortunately it cant be done. the tempest and the maelstrom are able to field more dps. To deal the same dps the typhoon has to use missiles, guns and drones, all three to match the dps of the maelstrom with guns only. Thats kind of gimpy from my point of view. I dont want to manage all three weapon types.

In PVE perhaps - but in pvp the phoon is much more valuable on the field. Can neut more that a tempest and can do more effective dps than a maelstrom. Great utility for the phoon in PVP

Most mission ships will be active tank. Active tank Typhoon, mission fit is going to ba a rare thing indeed.

Phoon is a PvP God. Massive DPS, Fast, Utilty slots everywhere, Decent tank, Selectable damage type, Huge drone bay. It was made for PvP imo.

I'm trying to figure out how you got a Tempest to out DPS a properly fitted and trained Typhoon.


The bold part? Well, then you're missing out on an insanely fun ship simply because you don't want to click one more button and pay attention to another window.

Can you hear them? They are calling to us. It is beautiful. http://thegreattichim.wordpress.com/

I dont know where you guys are getting your dps numbers. Im useing the eve fitting page. dont get me wrong, I like the typhoon, its got a large drone bay, its the fastest minmatar BS, its got plenty cap. But the dps sucks compared to the others.
If Im doing something wrong Id like to know, show a fit.

about the only thing its good for is to act as an armor tank. That it can do and do well.

The Typhoon is meant to do one thing: Kill battleships and larger. It's not a solo ship in PVP, it's the ship you drop in and everyone in a battleship runs away.

[Typhoon, Typhoon]

5x Torpedo Launcher II (Scourge Rage Torpedo)
3x 800mm Repeating Artillery II (Republic Fleet EMP L)

100MN MicroWarpdrive II
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
2x Large Shield Extender II

Damage Control II
Co-Processor II
3x Ballistic Control System II
2x Gyrostabilizer II

2x Large Core Defense Field Extender I
Large Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I

5x Ogre II

Just whipped this up in ~5 minutes. Requires a 3% CPU and 2% PG implant.

Does 1500 DPS, 75k EHP, goes 1200 m/s

With heat, 1750 DPS, 80k EHP, does 1740 m/s

Kill battleships or have a friend with painters.
