amazing ship.
I was bored to hell in eve and decided it was time to try the mach, got some skills and ****** fit and set to try it in action.

The blap... omg.. the blap... glorious!

800Autocannon hitting to 50Km +- with that lovely speed... I'm in love.

Decided it's high time to pimp it and perfect the needed skills.

1. To which degree you pimp your mach? T2 is enough? Faction? mix som deadspace shield rep?
2. Armor or shield rep? I want max blap power but not to warp out every 2 minutes.
3. TE to Gyro ratio?
4. Gun rigs or AU speed rigs?

cheers

1. Go all purple. Just kidding, a Dread Guristas X-L booster should be enough bling
2. Shield
3. 3 gyro 3 TE 1 nanofiber
4. Warpspeed

Basically you want to just have the bare minimum tank on it since you do so much dps you can remove much of the incoming damage before you need to actually tank.

This of course only works if you're paying attention and are manually piloting to match transversal etc

You might also want to think about getting a sensor booster to lock faster as your scan resolution is still battleship level

Forum Toon Doomheim Likes received: 127	#3 - 2016-07-10 18:38:31 UTC good point on sensor booster! and what are your thoughts on MWD over AB? and awareness is what makes this ship so awesome, unlike my old AFK gila or MJD snipers this actually feels like those epic space battles from the cinema or TV series' I've watched. maneuvering... blaping targets... epic.

They both work fine; pick your poison. Armor is easier on cpu; shield is easier on grid (which makes refitting to 1400s more of an option should you ever want to, say, pop Scarlet on a blitz).

Silly goose; everyone knows you're suppose to use hybrids on a Tengu, not projectiles.

Artillery on a Tengu. Pff, amateurs!

this fit was built like two years ago, when i was doing almost nothing and had time to assemble it py pieces. This is "true" Angels doctrine fit with all those exceptions that Domi's mods at least some of those are not same effective as another faction ones but idc. It looks sexy.

Something I noticed people are forgetting for their Mach fits, you can toss an Auto Targeting System I to get 9 max target locks, especially if you're not fitting a tractor or neut or something instead. Not gonna make or break your fit, but just FYI in case you indeed have an empty high and too little CPU or Grid for anything else.

I use an AB on my Mach. The AB runs permanently. Mitigates quite some damage it seems as I hardly ever have to cycle the shield booster. It's fast enough with the AB for L4s at least when I remember to boat to the gate at the last few rats.
