now that i can fly a abaddon working on tech2 guns now rest is tech 2 ... i have level 4 battle ship as well..

what would be the best way to earn isk with them that possible and if you could share a fit


also if some one could just share a beginner/more advance battle ship ratting fit with me for just 0.0 ratting

and tell me how high of a sanctum or a haven it can run solo and how the isk hourly is

i would apprectiate it !=]

OK, you might find using a Geddon or an Apoc easier due to these ships having better capacitor. The Abbadon is an excellent ship but needs decent skills to go with it.

Use T1 beam lasers until you have T2 Pulse lasers and then live with those. Scorch is almighty.

As for Santums and Havens you might want to take care. Until you are confident in how much DPS you cna take, I'd stick with lower Havens. Likewise you might find Sanctums to be far too DPSey until you have very good skills.

This will give you 60km optimal, with 30km for multis. You will likely need to change the mids to tracking computers to help your DPS. Kill fast movers that approach you first and this fit works best when you have range on your target so move away from the warp in, or wapr at range in the first place. Pulse your reppers and chew up cap sticks as required - needs practice. Take several types of crystal for different ranges and make a note of your optimals so you know when you need to change.

Works if you're lazy like me and hate the frustration of constantly running back for more boosters. I get about 22 minutes of capacitor with everything running, which is more than enough for the anomalies I tend to run. Slightly better damage and projection with the tachs (and they sound better!). I tried using a cap booster fit earlier, but with my lowish level of skills I was chewing through booster charges so fast that it was simply impractical. There's a half-dozen ways I'd like to improve this, but until the skills improve a bit, it's what I'm stuck with. (And yeah, you could easily go with an Armageddon or Apocalypse -- but I've never cared for the former, and was sick of using the latter.)

Oh -- and if, like me, you don't yet have advanced weapons upgrades, it takes a powergrid implant. I think mine is 4%, though EFT says 2% would be just enough.

I've yet to decide if it actually runs sites much faster than my legion. It has slightly better damage and range and all -that-, but the damage against cruisers and frigates is laughable at best. I waste lots of time either waiting for my drones to slowly chip away at a few elite frigates, or hitting for about 20% damage on orbiting cruisers. But I can often take out three or four battleships in the time it takes my drones to destroy one frigate.

This should be able to tank and clear out Sanctums pretty well. Cap Stable lazy tank, good range Ok DPS. Nothing exciting about this ship it will just do the job at good pace.

Megapulse Scorch with a Locus Rig which will give you a good 70km Range on it. The Tank should work fine.
