Hi,

I've got a Thorax and thonk about superiour ships.

My strategy is based on Drone attack to weak opponent before they overnumber me.
Befor I had a Thorax, for Drone capacity, but find it to weak when directly attack.

What your advise ?

A Myrmidon is usually the next step. It has a greater tank, Dmg bonused Drones with room for both small and medium, better cap to run that tank and more guns that equal out to about the same gun dmg,

In all you will find it a wholly superior ship. After that comes the Sentry Drone Dominix.

Rokh is expensive for a solo pvp boat imo. Domi or mega do same same dps and Domi can solo tank with the best of them. If your worried about isk myrm or Domi will suit you better AC myrm with dual rep is an awesome ship

Oh god remembers when thorax was a real knife fighter. Sad

But those that sugested myrmidon were on the money.

If you have isk and like drones Ishtar used to be fun with hybrid balancing it might be worth bringing them out again.

Man, if you got a Thorax for drone capacity, then you need some direction:

Thorax: BLASTER boat.
Vexor: DRONE boat.
