Ships & Modules

No is the short answer.

The longer answer is, as always, "it depends" - and in this case it depends on the ship and the bonuses.

Dual-rep plated ships are very ship-specific too, Myrmidon being the classic example where you fit autocannons to reduce cap usage so the reppers run longer.

You got no buffer on that so it makes no odds what shield booster you put on it, you will DIAF. CDFE rigs don't count as buffer as 15% bonus on bugger all is still bugger all

Edit - also I would always fit a YT8 mwd as it uses less cap, and its cheaper than T2.

forums ate my post again

drake, T2 fit, kill anything stupid enough to engage you, run from anything that can kill you

much better than ferox

You have no buffer - ie you have no shield extender (or armour plate if you went that way) fitted.

If you are planning on using that for PvP you need to buffer fit it. Most PvP ships without some sort of buffer tend to die fast and that Ferox will die fast.

I'm no expert on Ferox (hell I never even see them being flown) but this is more the sort of thing :

That gives you 62k EHP compared with 46k on the old setup. Also on your setup you are extremely cap dependent with the blasters and neut, never mind the shield repper.

for example. i tend to stay away from gallente ships. they are mean with nuteing. basicly i see a lot of videos were people are active and they stay in the fight longer then buffer.

Gaining pvp experience from video's that may date back to 2003, is all win here. I approve of this method.

awh man. i wanted to get some epicness from this. all well back to t2 booster

well how is the rohk able to do this with a shield booster? is it just becuase its a battleship

I've never wanted a dislike button so much as right now. You have a no-point, no-web, afterburning Drake fit and describe it as PvP? Seriously?

You can active tank a Drake, but without links, Crystals and blue pill, you aren't going to get the kind of "brawler" style tank you see on a Cyclone, Maelstrom, etc. since it can only fit a LSB. It's more for keeping up with the minor league damage you take when kiting; i.e. drones, "that one guy" with an arty cane, the occassional SB torp or bomb, etc.

It's standard issue blob drake, the kind that's handed out prefitted to expendable peons. I didn't put "pvp" anywhere in that post, but I guess some people consider blobbing pvp, as that's all there is those days. I wouldn't fly that scram fit, or any drake, solo. You just won't be able to get any kills, and get popped at some point. Too little speed to catch prey or get away, too little dps to kill. Buffer only means a slower death solo. The idea is to fly with the blob and get a feel of things, not feed the blob.
