I've been looking for a battleship to fly as I'll be ready to start doing Level IV missions soon, one of the BS that caught my interest was the Typhoon, the hull bonuses seemed good and I liked the way it looks; it's not pretty but its got some character, after some thinking I managed to throw together a fit on Osmium based on my own skills, I think it seems decent enough but I'd like some advice.

Here's the fit:

[Typhoon, Typhoon PvE Level IV]
Limited Armor Thermic Hardener I
Large Ancillary Armor Repairer, Nanite Repair Paste
Limited Armor EM Hardener I
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II

100MN Afterburner II
Large Micro Jump Drive
Heavy Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 800
Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron
Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron

'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
'Arbalest' Cruise Launcher I, Mjolnir Cruise Missile
Drone Link Augmentor I

Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I
Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I
Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I

Hobgoblin II x15
Hammerhead I x5

Osmium link: https://o.smium.org/loadout/30412

P.S. Sorry about the Tech 1 hardeners, they should be Tech 2 soon.

your going to need a sebo if you plan on mjding. The phoon's missiles can hit 120km but you can only target to about 85km.

T2 Hardeners and i prefer something like a Dark Blood Large Rep(60m tops)

[Typhoon]

Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II

Dark Blood Large Armor Repairer
Armor Thermic Hardener II
Armor Kinetic Hardener II

Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron

100MN Afterburner II
Large Micro Jump Drive
Sensor Booster II

Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Cruise Missile Launcher II, Scourge Cruise Missile
Small Tractor Beam I

Large Capacitor Control Circuit II
Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst II
Large Warhead Flare Catalyst II


4M CAP just runing the rep hardeners and TPs. The T2 Rigs are fairly cheap and should help with killing smaller ****. 720 dps with T2 missiles loaded.

Recommended implants
CA 1-4(Not a bad set to have relatively cheap)
CM-603
MP-703
GP-803
TN-903
RL-1003

6% are better but 3% are not a bad starting point.

Whew, that's really expensive (for me anyway), I'll keep those Tech 2 rigs, implants, and the Dark Blood repairer in mind for the future when I'll hopefully have plenty of ISK to spare, thanks for the reply!

For now I'll swap out the cap booster for the sensor booster, and make getting T2 hardeners my next priority, after that I'll go for T2 cruise missiles.

You may not need the cap booster. MJD is not ran continuously, so when fitting the above, make sure it is turned off, and ten check your cap usage.

Personally Get the T2 Hardeners and the hardwirings first. The T2 Launchers. You should have the Geno Set for free. you can work with t1 rigs initially. Also consider upgrading to the fleet phoon later on.


I know it seems odd to consider you T1 bs hull have a billion in it between implans ship and fitting but it does help.

like i said to someone else before i wish i was active enough to help you out more. I might have better internet in a bit because of my injury but i cant guarantee the time and effort you deserve.

When I am home feel free to pick my brain.

That fit is pretty tight on CPU, using True Sanshas hardeners (15-20mil) will open up some of it until you have your fitting skills fully trained.

For your first L4 missions I'd suggest swapping out one, or even two, BCU for a bit more tank (EANM/hardener/reactive hardener) - the extra tank will make a bigger difference than a small dps increase if it all goes wrong, especially with the very long reload of an ancillary rep.

Sounds good, I'll play it safe until I have a good understanding of the L4 missions and how to fly my new BS.

Thanks for all the replies everyone, it's been a big help.

Small addition: as you are going to range-tank. Put 4 Wardens into drone bay and use them to kill frigates approaching you. You have space and bandwidth for it. It would be better than trying to play with hammers and hoblins (they die a lot when far away from you)

You can make typhoon passive tank...i use passive tank typhoon with t1 cruise missile and t2 light drone (lots of them)...the average time to complete L4 mission 30 mins

You can, but it's going to be a lot slower, as it means a big loss of damage from the painters (and probably BCUs).

This one is pretty ganky, and is only going to be using that rep as an emergency/occasional thing.

Be interesting to hear how the OP gets on with it ;)

Typhoon Fleet issue seems to me so much better in every possible way, that I would recommend you to upgrade to it. Full flight of sentry drones, 2 utility high slots for more drone control range, better speed, tank...
