Can someone give me a T2 PvE fit for a Thrasher please?

So far I have:

Small Particle Dispersion Projector I
Small Ancillary Current Router I
[empty big slot]

Inertial Stabilizers II
Overdrive Injector System I

Non-Inertial Ballistic Screen Augmentation I
Catalyzed Cold-Gas I Arcjet Thrusters
Small Shield Booster II

250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
250mm Artillery Cannon II
[Empty Turret Slot]

Second question:

What ship should be my next one? I love the durability of a Thrasher so a Sabre is definitely not an option :)

Thank you for any and all feedback!

Personally, I like fitting the Thrasher with dual-MSEs for tank and 200mm ACs, but there are a number of ways to fit it, what you have listed should work fine too.

And what ship you should fly next really depends on what you want to do. What do you enjoy doing?

What's an MSE?

I enjoy striking hard in a fight and being able to take some hits in the interim. I don't want a "glass cannon" so I suppose I'm willing to sacrifice power for durability. I don't want a slothy juggernaut though.... It makes me worry that the battle will be over before I make it there :)

The Thrasher so far gives me everything I want in a ship. I just want a ship to grow into before I grow out of this one :)

I've heard that the Cyclone is okay, but it's better to wait out the Hurricane.

I suppose the only thing I don't like about the Thrasher is the severely limited range which is why I enjoy the tanking aspect. I am always taking hits before I can fire back.

MSE = minmatar shield extender , the item which makes the "least" tanky race the most tanky race

I am sure it's rather medium shield extender not minmatar.

although since you are Amarr your post was probably irony mixed with a little jealousy :)

A little jealousy? LOL I'd say quite a lot.

Anyway, here is my PvE Thrasher fit I used for a long time.

[Thrasher, ManyGuns]

7x 250mm Light Artillery Cannon II (Titanium Sabot S)

1MN Afterburner II
Invulnerability Field II
Medium Shield Extender II

Tracking Enhancer II
Gyrostabilizer II

2x Small Ancillary Current Router I
Small Core Defence Field Purger I


If you stay with Minmatar I would say your next ship should be the Rupture. If you like to go really fast then get a Stabber.
