As you will see if you consult my results with a non-zero angular, the Talos has better results when using real-game numbers and not arbitrary ones.
No. It has a higher result, which is actually worse, due to how the chance-to-hit equation works. You want the terms in the CTH formula to be zero, or as close to as possible.

As it happens, the Talos is worse by a factor of 2.7.

No, the higher the tracking the better. It seems you really do know nothing outside of equations.

I had arrive3d at that conclusion on page 1. It was only one idiot saying otherwise. Anyways as for your Tornado tracking. .062 vs .038 buddy. Although the Talos outdamages it (and everything else) by a fair margin and at similar ranges.


as i already said twice, comparing talos with a zealot proves nothing.

what i would really like to hear is why is it so much better than the tornado that it makes it op.
cause if it only does like 100dps more at say 30km. i can live with that and it doesnt make it op imo.
I see alot of good pilots use both ship with great results and no one is saying the tornado is overpowered.

Again, the Talos sports superior range, damage and tracking to the Naga.


And DRONES. You can't emphasize that enough really.

Drones are obvious and so is tracking but it doesn't have the superior range unless you start fooling around with faction fits to lower cpu. Naga has a surprising combo of EHP and speed that makes it work in a kiting fit. Would you pit them against eachother the Naga would win.

…but you're not calculating the tracking in the formula you used. You're calculating a part of the chance-to-hit formula, which uses the inverse of tracking. With higher tracking, you arrive at a lower number. In your calculation, the Talos end up with a higher number because it has a lower effective tracking.


Look at the formula you used again:

angular velocity / tracking × signature resolution / signature radius.

You want the whole thing to be as close to zero as possible — that's why angular_v = 0 is so good: the whole thing automatically comes out as zero.

Higher velocity is bad. Higher tracking is good. Higher signature resolution is bad. Higher signature radius is good. A higher number for the entire formula is bad. You ended up with a higher number for the Talos because of its higher signature resolution (a bad thing). The Zealot ended up with a lower number because of its lower signature resolution (a good thing).

The Zealot's number as 2.7 times lower than the Talos' — the Zealot effectively tracks 2.7× better.

The naga wins every time so dos the nado and yes if you hit keep at range OH your mwd and drop some drop you will pop fast tackle so will a cane a nano mega a acphoon and pretty much any other tier3.

In short ops a troll and a talos will kill vagas unless they oh in time to pull out of fall off.

Talos working just as intended.

i like the part where you say a naga has better speed than the talos the most...
please share that fit of yours that makes the shield talos so inferior.

Learn to read, I said COMBO of speed and EHP. I'm waiting for mr. "lulz Talos wins EZ" and then we'll have a look.

Kindly explain how the talos does better range than the naga? And while you're at it, how it does better damage with any reasonable fit (as in, shield tanks manage more damage mods, and guess which one manages a better shield tank?)

so the combo of being slower and having more ehp makes it better at kiting?

You're trying very hard, in a straight up fight (per what I stated) the combination of EHP and DPS for the naga works out better than for the Talos, tracking is not an issue in these fights as the Naga can pull range and while doing so forces the Talos to MWD. There is one situation where the Talos could get a victory but I'm waiting to see if Mr "Talos wins EZ" is capable of thinking that one up, as it's very unrealistic.

As long as you don't do the "talos pilot is uber and the Naga pilot is a moron who made a mistake" the Talos will not win.
