unfortunately it was the one pirate BS that got horribly screwed in the pirate ship changed a few years back and is now relegated to a practically useless pve tanker...

IIRC the old rattler was just a phoon with hybrids and missiles instead of ACs and missiles, what made it such a dps rapetrain?


used to have 7, possibly 8?, damage bonused torp slots.
out DPSed a navy raven by a decent amount.

7 bonused slots would put it on par with a CNR, not above it. But that said I'm fairly certain it had 6 missile slots and some turret slots (and a hybrid turret damage bonus) I know for a fact it did not have 8, as the only ship in the game with that many was (is?) the alliance tourney prize raven from ages ago.

add in a full flight of sentry drones and enough lows for impressive amounts of damage mods.
