You could also try an Arbitrator. T1 cruiser that can be armor tanked. It is bonused for drones, but the highs usually use neuts and missiles.

Hi,

My main is dedicated Caldari pilot. Born in time when hybrids were silly weapons. That means he is skilled in missiles only (support skills and several tech 2 launchers) but has no skills in gunnery. Only Weapon Upgrades from there.
His corp however frequently assembles armor fleets to various actions in WH or LS and then my main has nothing to fly regardless having armor thanking skills.

Here I am asking you for help in finding alternative armor hulls for use with missiles
Preferred are T1 frigates, cruisers and BS class as most planned activities are PvP so ship must be cheap and thus expendable.

Right now my plans are to constrain into Guardian but this means support role instead of combat one I want.

Cheers

Hi,

I know that I can armour tank almost anything but the point is to fly a ship :
1. with missile bonus
2. not gimped (dps) by using armour fit (like raven or Drake).

Cheers,


Uncle Gagarin,

But when you armor tank you are exactly gimping your dps, by not using those slots for any BCUs.

Sorry, but you cannot have both.

I.E. the Raven gets a 5% ROF/level and a 10% vel./level. The Typhoon gets only a 5% ROF/level.

P.S. I went and double checked some of the facts. OK, if I dedicated the Raven's 5 low slots to armor tanking, and then dedicated 5 of the Typhoon's low slots also to armor tanking, then the 'phoon would have two lows where BCUs could be placed. The Raven would have 272/2475 damage, and the phoon would have 334/2466. (no frills)

Always remember Tovil-Toba, and what was done there.
