Prob a bit overkill... 1200's will have better tracking and fire faster Big smile

and either way just pre-lock stuff... no need for sebos lol

sebos are lock range. tracking matters not from a 100k off


Trust me... The rate of fire will get irritating fast. You wont have trouble tanking Lv3's get in closer and clear them faster

Each to their own i suppose. All im saying is you dont need the range and your sacrificing dps for it. Get in closer, do more dps, and free up the sebos for more more useful things (tracking, tank etc).

actually mo. as it is I alpha 90% of ships; I alphaed about 70% trying with 1200s, and with arties for l3s, it all about that alpha, 'bout that alpha.

isn't the ROF on 1200s like, almost double that of 1400s?

Just about. If i was going the arti route id use 1200's, split them into 2 groups and wail on seperate targets whilst the drones are on frigs... less wasted dmg, higher overall dps and better tracking.

Alpha means overkill.... satasfying... yes... efficient... no.
Unless the rats have some crazy reps... which they dont in Lv3's

I'd use ACs for the most part. Higher tracking, more dps, and with all the low hp targets the high cycle time of AC is nice.

if you are in a bs in level3s, scan res is one of the important things. stuff goes boom so fast, and as you are mostly shooting frigs/cruisers you need to be able to lock fast. tracking/range is also important, and tank is an afterthought.

I wouldn't group them at all. Lv3s are mostly frigs/crusiers. any sort of grouping leads to massive overkill with most targets. without grouping you can only do as much damage as they have HP, and the most you can waste is some fraction of one gun.

Reiterating arty should not be used grouped. I just click down the line, with instant damage application, if you kill a target, the next click will shoot at the next target.
