Hey! Im new to eve so I need help picking a ship for pvp. I am minmatar if that means anything. If possible it would be nice if it is fast, hits like a truck and maybe could take a few hits. Thank you! Fitting also added in please!

Cynabal maybe?

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

Are you looking for Alpha or Omega fits?

Curse you Valkin for being insightful and stuff.
I have nothing to contribute, being minmatar ignorant.
Just venting.

Orthrus (there is no such ship for an alpha).

A Trasher could be a good start, destroyer are quickly repayed, can deal decent dps, move fast and somewhat tank depending of your targets.

Here is a full tech I (alpha) fit : https://o.smium.org/loadout/110917

either an artillery or blaster ship, artilleries have high burst damage from long range but slow rate of fire, blasters have high base damage but are close ranged weapons. so either a Thrasher (Minmatar destroyer) or Catalyst (Gallentean destroyer)

Use a thrasher, Rifter, Slasher and the Rupture. Though just keep in mind that the minnie line are not very well balanced and tend to be a bit weaker compared to the rest of their counterparts so learn your ships and apply them in situations that they can win.

I know that's a pretty generalized statement and only broadly gives you an answer I however do not know Minnie ships that well and wouldn't be much help.


Just don't use the Stabber. It's one of the worst ships ingame right now.

Rifter, Slasher, Thrasher, Talwar, Rupture & Gnosis are all good pvp ships.

Insane.

+1 Thrasher. Very versatile ships. Autocannon or Artillery.

As suggestion above, a shield Thrasher with ACs and a Microwarpdrive might be worth looking into. High DPS, a reasonable tank and (some) speed.

There is nothing so beautiful in EVE as a rusty Thrasher, bristling with ACs like an enraged hedgehog from hell, firing lead in all directions whilst corkscrewing though space.

Agreed. A little considered aspect of the Cynabal is the warp speed bonus. Add a T2 warp speed rig and you're warping faster than a Sabre.

Arty Thrasher or Rupture.

It also does less dps then a caracal at 28km. The cynabal is ****.


(edit, actually medium auto cannons are ****, at least for kiting, if the weapon system didnt suck so bad the cyna wouldnt be so bad)
