Hello everyone,

I'm very interested in a fit for a Thorax. I'm going to solo pvp with it or rarely some small gangs, I don't whether it's a brawler or kiter. I have however no idea what fit to use. I've been looking on the internet but nearly all of them are old, and the things they promised aren't achieveable anymore nowadays. Help is much appreciated, thanks!

I dont have eft here, so this is off the top of my head. The typical ones you see are:

Buffer:
Electrons
Web x 2, Scram MWD
1600 plate, EANM x2, DCU, Mag Stab

Can do the same fit as above by dropping to an 800 plate and upgrade to ions or neutrons. With enough fitting mods, you can fit a 1600 + 800 plate plus electrons I am pretty sure. Its been awhile.

Active:
Electrons,
Web Scram MWD Medium Electrochemical cap booster
MAAR, MAR (Meta 4), Eanm x2, DCU

Gank
Neutrons,
LSE, web, scram, mwd
Mag stab x 3, TE, DCU

Kite
200 Rails
LSE, Point, MWD, Small cap booster
Mag Stab x2, TE, Nano (I prefer Istab. Gimping Gallente Structure seems wrong), DCU

And I havent fit one yet, but I am planning something along these lines because medium rails are so good now. Not sure exactly if it will fit, but I think it should:
Rail Brawler
Dual 150s
web, scram, mwd, medium electrochem cap booster
MAAR, 800 plate, Eanm x2, DCU.

Rigs and drones to taste. If you fit rails, one metasis rig is a good idea if you can fit it. Many of the above will require an ACR.

spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP!

Confirming this is a good fit, it flies like a Dual Rep SFI, has good disengage ability as well.

Confirming the dual rep fit is the boss. With good skills you can also use only 1 ACR rig, 2 aux nanos & ion blasters. Solo misquoting/rattling battlecruisers all day. Be liberal with the heat, bring plenty of paste. You should have sufficient tank to hold gate/station guns while killing tanky AF's.

One word of warning though, watch for neuts. It does great against other pvp fits, even well fit pvp bc's... unless you get neuted. Then you're done for. You could switch out for null and try to maintain that tiny slice of orbit between scram and neut range but your fall-off damage won't be enough to finish the fight before your opponent's back-up arrives and if he decides to oh the prop and bail it will be easy. If his back-up is a couple frigs then carry on and take them next but anything else means it's time to gtfo yourself.

Good luck
