Ships & Modules

Im looking at fitting a Rokh for l4 missions.
I know many of you dont like them for missions or feel a raven can do much better, and while i agree, i just dont like missiles. I prefer turrets, rails are my favorite weapon system so id like to fit a Rokh for l4's.
With that said for lvl 4 missions should i fit 425's or 350's?
Any fits you could link here would be appreciated.

425 Rails:



MJD out of range and snipe like crazy.

Use whatever ammunition suits you.

As for frigs, use drones or snipe them at long range. You should have no problem killing them when you group your weapons in 2 or 3 groups and kill the frigs while they fly directly at you.

Only spider drones may be to fast but just use some Warrior II or Hobgoblin II and you are fine.

EDIT: To be precise on the ammunition, use Uranium for targets above 100km (they have 111km optimal and you can target up to 112km) and Antimatter for anything 85km or lower.

Here you go.

Sorry for that ^^"

Yes, it does.

But its optimal range is 178km, there is no way you can actually fire that far as long as your targeting range is 112,5km.

No.

There is no reason to force ranges beyond 100km.

Remember, iridium does less damage than Uranium, so why do you want to use the less damaging ammunition?

In case you want to improve your fitting.

As long as your Tank is sufficient, always go for the maxximum ammount of DPS for the greatest range when using MJD.

Stuff like this is a viable option as long as your tank is fine. With this setup you do not need to change your ammunition at all.




EDIT: I do NOT have any experience with this particular fitting, I do not know whether the tank is ok or not, it is just a meaning of showing one possible direction of improvement.

Most if these fits are great. I only fly Rokh in L4s and have for a long time.

All you need to do is ensure you have enough tank to survive initial warp ins, you know those annoying close range ones. From there, try to match lock range with weapon range by swapping around optimal range scripts and even targeting range scripts on sensor boosters.

Frigs die super fast with these fits because NPCs are dumb and don't do transversal, so you can **** directly down their throat and one shot almost all frigs and even some destroyers. Otherwise, use light drones around you to kill the frigs. Also nice to throw on salvage tones for a few extra isk while moving between gates after enemies are all down.

Overall, all the above fits work the same, just small detail differences between them.

As much as I LOVE the Rokh, I should mention it may be worth wild to fiddle around with Naga fits too for the same purpose if isk is tight.

For what it's worth, I typically engage at 150km, swap ammo and scripts according to optimal ranges to about 55km and then MJD and rinse and repeat. Safe tactic and shields almost never go under 98%... Almost. Some missions I get impatient and get too close and heavy for fun.
