Ships & Modules

Hi there!

I'm on my way to start running L4 missions, and I've put my eyes on the Megathron. I've been researching for some fits, and I've seen no fits with a MJD, something I find interesting as I'm aiming for Marauders and Incursions. Right now I can't decide between a MJD or non-MJD fit, as I've never used this module.

I wanted to ask for some feedback from players who have used such fit for L4 security missions: is it more effective? Does it kill things faster than a more standard AB fit, as it should be able to fit more damage mods? Is it too squishy for a newbie to L4's (although I can fit a T2 tank)? I'd also like to see some fittings with it, if you please could.

As a side question, what about MJD's on Incursions? Isn't it risky to be so far away from the Logistics, or it doesn't matter as long as you have fleet mates getting all the aggro? Have you ever tried them out

Many thanks in advance!

I used the MJD on my Navy Dominix and loved it with my sentry drones, I was later messing around with my navy mega (I don't remember why) but I took the MWD off and put the MJD on and found it much easier killing things. However word of warning. with the MJD you will find yourself slow boating to gates 20-30km away and depending on how/if you salvage sites you are looking at more slow boating around.

The MJD is really just the lazy mans way to get away from things. and outside of swapping the MWD for a MJD i didn't change the rest of the fit. While i used rails on my mega a fellow corpie used blasters and moved through missions quicker then i did. (higher dps, easier to burn to gates with a MWD, less lazy then i was)

as to the incursions i have no idea i've never done them. . CCP where are my wormhole incursions!

MJD kills your dps since you won't do much at high ranges outside of cruise missile or T2 sentry domi fittings. Once you know the missions a mwd is a much better choice. As for the mega, well the hype will give you the better tank and more dps, as well as the domi. A rail mega can work on high skill levels but I never was satisfied with mega/navy mega before the introduction of the Kronos(what will be considerable worse with the changes). Currently I do use a mwd fitted 1200 dps rail/sentry Kronos for L4, it is suprisingly effective as far as rail/sentry platforms go(for multi boxing, going 1100m/s, having 100km+ projection range, insta pop frigs with the 90% web and omni tanking every L4 comes really into it's own), will probably sell it after the changes.



It doesn't matter if you don't get shoot, however once you get shoot, you will die very quick(the bigger sites can put a enough pressure on your tank that even a well tanked BS goes down in a couple of volleys without remote rep).

Overall MJD is pointless in Incs.

as stated the MJD is best used on shipping/ range fits such as raven or domi. if you can use T2 sentrys use the domi with MJD.

just remember once you click the MJD button it can't be stopped and you can't alter the course of your ship. just remember to recover your drones.

I did think about it too, but I'm not sure how does it perform on missions (I know they're widely used at Incursions, at least between newcomers). Any feedback about the Hyperion?
