Missions & Complexes

once i had a mouse which interprets a single click as a doubleclick. since that i avoid to turn the camera to much. and always checking that i still orbit

I just kite in a straight line and use ECM, sure sometimes it takes a little longer but one less thing to mess up.

The first one is my old fit, the second one is one I want to try soon™ as the compact stuff wasn't around last time I played. The missile range may feel a little low, but since the npcs are flying in a straight line at you, you effectively end up getting a few extra KM range. The signal amp is nice as it gives just enough targeting range to start ECM as soon as you land, and the damage is just high enough to punch through a logi if you get super unlucky with ECM. The second fit has just a bit more damage and hopefully should punch through the logi even quicker to hopefully give even more consistent complete times.

I will vouch the first fit for caldari and gallente team burners. It works for the minmatar but I'm not sure if it can hit the logi at 25km+ so I can't guarantee you won't get hit by a wrecking shot, I use an ecm harpy for that one. Also can't remember about the amarr team, I always just used the unified daredevil for that one. The pure EM damage is super easy to tank, and the daredevil dps is just so overwhelming it goes super fast. Of course with the ECM it will eventually work, but I remember the amarr logi having the highest logi tank so not sure how well it breaks through that.

according to http://games.chruker.dk/eve_online/npc_ships.php?supergroup=25&return_to= the team burner logi have sensor strengths between 17-21. EFT says a heated meta ECM has a 4.95 jam strength so you are looking at roughly a 1/4 chance to jam. Dropping the various skills to 4 doesn't seem to lower the chances that much. Also I find that if you have a bad streak of not being able to jam the first logi swapping to the other logi works most of the time, but RNG is R.

Signal Dispersion is the skill that increases ECM strength so it is the main skill to work on, most of the other ewar skills won't make a big difference as ECM has adequate range. But Long distance jamming doesn't hurt.

Just reporting back some recent experience.

I would advise against using the T2 flare rig on the Garmur unless you can reach 28k with a missile range implant. It's fine for all of the burners except for the Jaguar, as when orbiting at 25km the Bursts are almost always 27-28k off.

Also, the guidance computers become damaged extremely quickly so they can't be relied upon overheated for the range difference.

EDIT: If you decide to go the implant route, you'll get more bang for your buck with the MB-703 Missile Bombardment implant. It's about 1 million cheaper and gives a tiny bit more total range than the MP-703 Missile Projection at 27.739 km compared to 27.734 km.

However, I'd still suggest the T1 Flare and just carrying a precision scrip to swap out for one of your computers. You'll lose 13.5% explosion velocity but pick up a 6.5% explosion radius bonus and will still have 24 km range.

EDIT2: I take it back, it's still a net gain with the precision script because I forgot you still have a 15% bonus from the T1 Flare and the 100% script bonus over the default targeting computer for explosion velocity and radius bonuses.

This is the fit I use, ~100m all together and is the recommended fit from this thread. I use a corpii or centii a-type rep which are a bit over 40m, It looks like you could use the coreli a-type which is a bit less at 22mil, but I like having the higher reps of the copii/centii and the isk difference isn't material to me. I don't think the 5 cap difference in activation cost will really make a difference, and the 20 hp/rep probably doesn't make a big difference either.

I guess I don't really understand the recommended fit in Anize's guide, it costs more and does less damage. The gyro to tracking enhancer may be a good swap, but I don't get the 2 faction gyros (cost bloat), or swapping the super cheap a-type plating to a t2 Energized membrane which seems like a waste of fitting room.

I just looked at the video and it looks to be more like my fitting. only uses 2 faction gryos and fits a t2 web with t2 rocket launcher. I think I'd rather keep my meta web/rocket and t2 gyros to help keep the cost down.

I get ~320 dps with this fit with a 5% turret damage implant (the SS-905). It consistently takes me 5 cap boosters to complete the mission. I'm guessing with lower damage it will take some extra cap boosters but will be doable. With an all level 4 pilot it looks to do 268 damage, which goes up to 281 with the 5% implant and 321 with implant and heat on the guns. I believe it can be broken with max skills and no heat so with your fit I'd assume the same.

worst thing you can do in this mission is burn your guns out. I've lost several wolfs to this, the thing is mostly a bullet sponge so sometimes I get bored in the middle of the fight and stop paying attention. I mostly solved this by waiting till the burner is in low armor before activating heat, this way the burner dies before I burn my guns out.

sounds like you are underestimating the content, I know I did when they first came out. Think of them as player ships that are officer fit, overheated, have multiple pirate implant sets, and full command bursts.

also AFAIK cap batteries don't do anything vs npc neuts/nos, but I have little info to support/deny that.

At least the retribution should be able to do all the team burners. I have a kiting beam fit that does plenty of dps to punch through the logi reps. I typically fly with an ECM in the mids and an afterburner, this means it is too slow for the minmatar version where I use a mwd harpy.

I would not compare a paladin in the blockade to anything burner related. FWIW when I run The Blockade any npc that can nos is dead before it gets in nos range. Also the paladin has a huge base cap, adding two cap batteries and it should have insane cap. I'm not sure that the reduction is working or that you just have so much cap it seems like there is a reduction.

I'd probably go with your fit and drop the web for a cap injector, then bring a mobile depot and warp stabs to refit into. If the cap batteries don't work the cap injector will at least let you keep your armor up will the mobile depot onlines and you can refit stabs to warp out. Looks like you should need 2 to be able to warp out. I hope it will work but I have doubts.

Thanks, yeah I just forgot to change the rockets over to Nova in Pyfa. Next time I get Cruor I guess we'll find out!

The Mjolnir Javelin rockets address the range problems against the Jaguar's logi.

Many thanks for this guide and fits.

I didnt read every post, so soory if it was asked and answered before.

I didn't try any burner before, so I want to test it now. But, I am not able to habe a special fit for every mission, so here the question: Is it possible to do all the Berner with one or two different ships? I'm Caldary, so I would prefer missiles and shields.

Thanks
