I'd like to get some feedback on this.

I'm trying to find a nice Sleipnir lowsec PvP fit, to be flown in small gang/solo, and the best I've managed to come up with is this:

Damage Control II
Gyrostabilizer II
Gyrostabilizer II
Gyrostabilizer II
Co-Processor II

Experimental 10MN Microwarpdrive
Faint Warp Disruptor
XL Ancillary Shield Booster
L Ancillary Shield Booster
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II

425mm AutoCannon II
425mm AutoCannon II
425mm AutoCannon II
425mm AutoCannon II
425mm AutoCannon II
Small Diminishing Power Drain
Small Diminishing Power Drain

Medium Core Defense Operational Solidifier II
Medium Core Defense Operational Solidifier II


Do you have any advice regarding the fit?
I can't really figure out how to make it work within the fitting limits, and I'd rather not fly fit's I've come up with without prior feedback.

Sleipnirs are pretty fun imo, I pimp them a little though.
Mids: Pith B Type XL shield booster, invuln, mwd, scram, cap booster (or second invuln)
lows: 2 gyros 2 tracking enhancers, 1 dc2
highs: autos, nos if able to fit.

The pith B shield module gives you insane reps (better than xl ancil imo). I prefer a scram to disruptor as the sleip is always going to want to close range asap. Now that medium arties have changed I'd love to try out an arty sleipnir.

Badly, apparently.

Danny be nice now.

OP, the Sliepnir is often fitted with a single dead space XL SB, rather than an ASB for longevity purposes. When fitted this way, a cap booster is almost mandatory, as it will chew through your cap like no other.

My problemwith XLSB fits is that the single cap booster doesn't seem to manage to feed them, and dual cap boosters kill your rep potential.
Also, I don't quite manage to fit anything in the two utility highs.
If going for such a fit, should I downgrade to 220s?

EDIT: my fitting skills are near perfection (only missing AWU V), and I can't fit any fitting implants because of the crystal implant.

First up, scrap your rigs. Reducing the cycle length of an ASB doesn't help much because more important is stretching your load of ammo then injecting a bunch of HP. Use either resist rigs or fitting rigs and get another XL-ASB if you really want ASB's. You might also consider a SBA in place of that LASB.

Push comes to shove, if you really don't like XLSB's on a Sleip because of cap, go for a LSB with a cap booster. At least then you can probably fit ganglinks to help your small gang.

I'd post a fit but i'd be crucified for using one for pve, same with claymore.

ITT Grump IT office worker is grumpy.

XLSB usually works with Sleipnir because you can usually run the Booster to get you back up to 1/2-3/4 shields then switch it off for a few cycles.

A word on riggings for ASB fits in general, solidifiers decrease the cycle time so they aren't a good idea, your better off fitting resists to make your ASB cycles more efficient or fitting DPS rigs so you can bring down the incoming DPS faster, in your case resist rigs would probably be the best choice.

for rather solo. Fot the second, even though smartbombs are a great thing against EC-drones, you'll be close to gates/signatures/stations most of the time, so you wouldn't be able to activate is anyways.

Solo/small gang setup here, 220's double med neuts single xl asb.

Double neuts compensate enormously for the loss of some alpha/dps from 425's, it's a tankier and bigger dps than old cane.
Very nice ship despite being a bit too slow.
