Ships & Modules

Hey there!

I just tried to create a fitting for my new shiny Orthrus for doing HighSec explo. (3/10 or 4/10 DEDs)

Id appreciate any kind of constructive critisism and suggestions on changes in this fit!

_________________________________________

Dont laugh at me but Im lacking any kind of skills in the Drones tab , so Im using Hobgoblin I's... :P (One reason why I didnt go for a cookie cutter Vexor or a similar ship (Worm e.g.))



The plan is to run DEDs in Guristas Highsec -> Kinetic Deflection Fields and Scourge Missiles


Had to fit the Co-CPU to make everything fit!
Should I rather go for a smaller shieldbooster and take a DCUII instead?


Btw - dont recommend me using other ships , Im almost only into caldari ships (Gall. Cruiser 2 now to be able to fly the Orthrus^^) and I dont like the Cerberus or its T1 brother , the Caracal - they look kinda...meh..


Would I be able to run 3/10s or 4/10s with this fit - using my drones and precision T2s for Frigs/Dessies and Rage for anything bigger?

EDIT: DPS is around 500ish and active tank according to EFT is at 173.. BTW how can I simulate the damage coming in from Guristas in EFT? Because "only" 170 "TankPerSecond" seems a bit low..

Put this in your config.ini file in the EFT folder:

DamageProfile=Gurista,0,570,3504,0
DamageProfile=Angel,480,0,719,3058
DamageProfile=Sansha,1945,1598,0,0
DamageProfile=Serpentis,0,1627,1320,0
DamageProfile=Blood raider,613,570,60,0
DamageProfile=Gallente federation,25,781,1127,0
DamageProfile=Minmatar republic,615,310,815,1633
DamageProfile=Amarr empire,1204,1349,0,0
DamageProfile=Caldari state,0,795,944,0
DamageProfile=EoM,0,618,1718,0
DamageProfile=Mercenaries,90,634,424,108
DamageProfile=Rogue Drones,86,91,281,964
DamageProfile=EM,1,0,0,0
DamageProfile=therm,0,1,0,0
DamageProfile=kin,0,0,1,0
DamageProfile=exp,0,0,0,1

Right click on defense and you can select which profile to use.

Your tank is more than adequate for 3/10s and 4/10s though. That really won't be an issue. I'd be most worried about applying damage to frigates, particularly in the 3/10 (which is almost all frigates iirc). I'd use something more like this as a base fit myself:

[Orthrus, high sec explodation cheap]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Co-Processor II

Large C5-L Emergency Shield Overload I
10MN Afterburner II

Drones as you see fit.

I have been running an Orthrus for high sec exploration with a lot of success. My skills are next to junk but it works quite well.

Caldari Cruiser: 4 (just finished)
HAM and Missile support skill around 3 or so.
working on tech 2 drone at the moment.

meta 4 HAM launchers
Sister launcher and probes

Large shield extender
Kinetic and Thermal meta hardeners
Afterburner II
Data/relic analyzer

Damage control II
3x Ballistic controls

Hobgob I

Rigor/Flare/scanning strength rigs


Plenty of tank for high sec if you keep your speed up.

RML seem to be junk the reload comes up too fast.
