such a cool ship! I'm a huge fan of cruisers and this new Sisters of Eve ship is a dozy! I saw in the video talking about Rubicon that the new cruiser will be a Gallente Amarr skilled cruiser, I was just wondering if anyone knew what skills i need to train to hop in this baby on Nov 19.

Well the cross race Pirate faction crusers need each Cruser skill at level 2.

This post shows some info but not skill requirements.

It would be nice if that is all I have to train as I fly mainly Caldari. Is there any difference between empire cross breads? if they exist that is.

Well, judging by the description, you will eventually want each race cruser skill to 5 for the bonuses, so get them as far along as you can.


Quote:
Amarr Cruiser Bonus:
4% bonus to Armor Resists

Gallente Cruiser Bonus:
10% bonus to Drone hitpoints and damage


And yes, the models look awesome, plus I love cloakey/exploration ships so I am really looking forward these coming out too.

I just got the information from the thread I linked in my first post (I added the link a short while after first posting).

Don't know if there are any patch notes or other sources of info. But the pics linked by 'CCP Rise' in that thread (bottom of the first post) make me happy in my pants area!

You should train Gallente and Amarr Cruiser skills to V and learn Hybrid Weapons, aswell as Hull Upgrades V

Hybrids for a laser boat?

He'll need Gal/Amar cruiser
cloaking 4
T2 pulses
and like three months of drone training (scout/EWAR/sentery II)

would have thought you'd want drone skills with that bay and bandwidth.

thanks for asking this though, was wondering and couldn't be bothered updating my sisi eve client to double check but it shouldn't really be different from the other faction cruiser prereqs if logic and consistency are values that CCP hold dear.

forums.  serious business.

Anyone who is going to fly this with Lasers is a complete moron and has no idea about fitting.
Railguns/Blasters are the goto weapon system as the ship has no damage/application bonus on Lasers.

And recommending to go for hybrids as a weapon replacement on a "no damage/application bonus"-ship is better?

Who exactly is the moron here?
Now if you would have said, Projectiles aka capless weaponry, I wouldn't have responded.

Hybrids a goto weapon choice.
Wut.

Because Hybrids do the most DPS in all cases except against Angels and Caldari/Gallente T2/T3 ships.
Blasters if you need short range DPS.
Rails if you need long range DPS.

Personally, I prefer autocannons on a ship like that. No cap use means I can always keep firing, while I use my cap for other things, plus, autocannons have wonderfull selection of ammo to switch out my damage types when I need it.

My triple rep myrmidon loves them too. Main damage is coming from drones anyway, so might as well use those turrets for utility slots anyway.

Does railgun ammunition come in Hollow Point?

Precisely.
