As has been said: HAMs are terrible for shooting frigs. Heavies are a better solution because your DPS will be applied more frequently (longer range) and more evenly (smaller ships). In a PVE situation, you might even find that heavies actually have a higher *real* DPS.

The entire point of using a T3 in high-sec exploration is not having to re-fit.

2/3 of the NPC you are shooting are frigates. HAMs are bad for that, even if we leave the time spend getting into range out of the equasion. So, get HMs with Rigor/Flare rigs maybe put on Gravity Capacitor Upgrd. rig if your scanning skills are lacking.


This again.


A T3 is so you don't have to refit.

Hm, so much for searching topics instead of recreating new ones.

I kinda bumped this by asking which ships to go for (as caldari) before I can fly the Tengu (which I can't just yet).

Now everyone is replying to the OP :P Guess I should have made a separate thread :P
