How do you guys fit your OGB? If you use a T3, do you stick with warfare links that the ship's subsystem provide, or add extra types (like shield links with a Loki boost fit)?

Do you use T3's, or stick with a BC, or... ?? Lots of talk about OGB, but never really seen any specific fits. Do you stick with shield or armor links regardless, or what? Curious minds, and all that! Smile

Thanks!

Firstly they would create a fitting they are happy with and go from there, unprobable or POS or tanked so they know how many links they will be able to have.

Then i suppose the owner of the booster would already have a preferred list in their minds of most to least useful for the ship/fitting type they are flying and fit them in that order on the booster.

my tank is mostly armor (not always)

so my OGB came from Prophecy to Legion.
Fit.... Well OGB is in high-sec (yes, i'm a proCool) and doesn't need much tank. So mostly links. But not without tank, hehe

Thanks for your input, March rabbit. I'm trying to get an idea on how people use their OGBs currently, boost-wise, in hostile environments like FW warzones. My current OGB is a cloaky low-sig Loki fit with skirmish link, but I keep coming back to what seems kind of rediculous bonuses for skirmish on a Loki versus armor. It just doesn't make any sense to me...

Thanks again!

If you have a pos and only one character then go for an 8//7/7 link claymore/vulture/damnation depending on what you want your bonused links to be, multiple characters use multiple t3s with thir bonused links.

If you have to roam then unprobable t3 or an on-grid tanked command ship. Usually 3/4 links for the t3s, 3 for the shield command ships and 3/4 for the armour command ships.

To receive full loki bonus you will need a character with;

Minmatar Defence Systems at 5
Skirmish Warfare Specialization 5
Warfare Link Specialist 5
Skirmish Warfare Mindlink (implant)
Tech II Links

As for mobility, i use the hard to probe / be aligned principal and safe stops near every gate and safes and deeps where and when possible.

Cameron, thanks for that! I do roam often, and my Loki alt is close to unprobable with a full Jackal set in his skull, so that's worked out well so far. I was just looking at the Vulture this morning thinking about using it instead for a while. I'll have to take a look at the Damnation, too... And thanks for the 3/4 tip on the armor command ship. I'm partial to using that in the space I roam in versus a Vulture or maybe Nighthawk, so I'll definately see what I can do there!

Thanks for the input, Crosi!! Yeah, I have those skills already, except the Mindlink. And the safes are in place and ready to be used. Lol

Keep a look out for incursion systems. Many of the sites that spawn are off d-scan from celestials and thus make good deep safe spots.

Good idea! I typically use mission or plex locations as a point of deviation for my safes, but I hadn't considered Incursion sites! Thanks!

The mindlink implant carriers a huge boost to effectiveness of command links. Thats probably why you are underwhelmed with the booster as it is.

i'd suggest learning how to fight with your boosts on grid as it's a matter of time before OGB get's removed.

fitting doesn't matter since you have a small pos around you

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value
