Ships & Modules

Hey,

I'm playing around with some PvE setups in EFT and am wondering if there is any way to replicate sleeper damage and range etc.

Are they restricted to applying damage as we are or are their weapons an exception to the rule as their ewar/neuts?

Ideally I am looking for a C4 set of rules.

as the above poster said they deal omni and NEUT in a c4 too boot so they CAP attack

^that

However, isn't that just arguing semantics?

The point being, you need to tank for even resists.

Unless you're trying to argue that you can speed tank the missiles (Kin/Exp) and thus want to focus more on avoiding the lasers (EM/Therm)?

THanks for all the replies, but I think perhaps I wasn't that clear in my question.

I am trying to setup a damage chart in EFT, so I need to be able to replicate their weapons and their range so that I can establish orbiting ranges etc etc.

I understand that they use Missiles and Lasers, but which ones?
Do they use Torps, Cruises or Heavies?
Do they use Pulse or Beam lasers?
Do either of these weapon systems defy the rules by which we fly, ie, do they have additional range over anything we can fit?
Do they have improved sig radius/explosion/velocity on their guns and missiles?
Do their missiles travel faster than normal?

The above link sums at least half of the story up.

Missiles: high alpha, long range. Guns: faster rate of fire, possibly shorter range (depends on sleeper type).

E.G. Range tanking Tengu should be able to negate some of incoming laser damage via range, at least on basis of the above link chart. Would it be able to keep the range advantage for long enough? Would it be able to stay out of neut range? Would it be able to speed tank some of the incoming missile damage? Needs input from people who do that kind of stuff, and know what they are doing :)

what he's saying is, that if you can speedtank missiles, then your resist should be different a bit, so not really omni-tank.

Great site, that.

Here's their dedicated page on sleepers:

Thanks for the link. I have been using that latest link for sometime now and have exported all of the information into an excel document.

That said, still no one has answered my question.... whether that is because I have not asked it correctly or not, I don't know.... or perhaps it can not be answered.

I want to replicate a sleeper in EFT. ie I want to put missiles and guns on 'a' ship and try to replicate the range and damage (link as damage), but also the sig size/radius/expo velocity of their weapons.

Or another way of asking: Does anyone have the statistics on the weapon types, not just range and damage, but rate of fire, sig size, damage % split, tracking, explosion velocity, explosion signature, speed of missiles.

An easier way of doing this might be to use two attacking ships to replicate one sleeper. ie one with lasers and one with missiles. I was trying to use a Maelstrom, but given that we don't know the stats of the weapon columns, I gave up.
