Ships & Modules

Hi there,

both choices make sense for tackle.

As a Condor already warps fast, speed/agility rigs will often be the better choice.

Also consider tanking rigs, because suicide tackle is glorious but if you die too fast your selfless sacrifice could be vain.


Best adivce is to fit something reasonable, then go out and use it as much as you can. You'll understand by yourself how to tweak your fit based on the actual situations you'll find yourself in.

people underestimate how important warp speed is when going for tackle, condor is agile enough and you won't gain any significant milestones by adding polycarbons. However landing on someone quicker than they might expect will net you kills that you probably wouldn't have had before.

I see MWD increases my signature radius. Does this mean guns can track me better and hit?
AB will make me harder to hit, but slower to reach target and grab point.
What's better? I'm thinking speed.

This is correct, a mwd will increase your signature radius. You can fit a Quad Lif 5mn mwd for somewhat lower signature radius increase. When you fly a Crow later, do the same.

More speed is usually a good idea but never fit an ab on a Condor until you have more experience in your approach and orbit tactic.
Be very careful at the 30km distance mark since you have to consider your momentum speed can work against you.

Use rocket launchers against drones that want to make your job hard. While a Condor cannot do much damage, it will be enough to remove small drones from your tail.

At the speed your Condor will be moving even small turrets will have a hard time hitting you.

there's no hard fast rule like that, everything depends on the situation. If he's 100km away and moving away from you at 2km/s and you shut down your mwd halfway you're just going to be left floundering.

To be honest most interceptors keep their mwd on since the speed/sig ratio is still good enough to evade most weaponry apart from small or rapid light missiles.

That's only if the target is a battleship (or bigger) and not moving.... For smaller targets that try to kill you and/ or run away, you want to overheat to move faster past the wide arm of the spiral.

Yep exactly. Just press the orbit button and let the autopilot do the approach for you, unless you approach a Caracal, Cerberus, Kestrel, Orthrus, Garmur or talwar, you will be fine.
The ships listed are on your no, no list.

Tsukino, did you even read the question?

The question was, if she can hit approach / orbit on a missile boat and the answer is yes for all missile boats but the ones I listed. It is no for any turret boat.

It is no longer funny being brighter than everyone else and I know, you hate me for it. Rest assured I do know what I am doing at all times.
I also know a lot more stuff than everyone else.

I think she meant that those ships could easily take me out, do not approach them? Perhaps I'm wrong.

So my high speed mitigates incoming damage from missiles, not really any transversal? If I read this right.
