Thanks that worked! Guess i'm just dumb then lol.

align time of 11s in prop mode. 6138/9095 (OH). 5-8k EHP, 150-210dps O.o

For comparison's sake, a 1mn in defense mode has a 9s align time.

Yeah not a fan of the sniper Hecate. I've tried this several times in big fleet battles now, and am switching back to venerable confessor.

The difference in performance is stark. On paper, hitting dudes at 100km with spike would give you the same dps as a confessor with beams at 80km, but in actual application it doesn't work. This may be due to that most small ships don't tank very well to EM.
The Hecate will start to chew a frigs shields for maybe 200 damage per volley and those guys just laugh off the damage or warp away at their leisure. Not like the confessor volleys where your armor has already vanished by the time you think, "omg where did my shields go".

I'm still slowly getting into brawling with this ship but that's not at all survivable in a big fleet battle, so I thought I'd just put in my two cents so far :)

The hecate is so far the only thing I've not been able to kill 1v1, with most fights ending in a stalemate against my jackdaw. Some shoddy piloting on my part also cost me a good hecate kill tonight, I could have done better.

So so far the hecate gets a thumbs up from my jackdaw, if only for being a PITA
