I just discovered the sheer pleasure of ripping apart lvl 3 missions with a Dual 650mm Scout autocannon tempest with dual webifier. The thing is pure evil anbd obliterates anything that makes the mistake and closes inside of 20km :) Had a 310 wrecking hit with Fusion on Hull with a standard tech 1 dual 650 earlier, but just forked out about 22 mill for a set of scouts for more pwnage potential :D

And the sound, dont get me started, i was drooling over the 1400 sound effects but OMFG the autocannons are just overwhelming, bang bang bang bang bang, non stop till the target explodes :D 3.12x damage mod, 2.94s RoF, the thing chews through ammo like crazy though.

Bigsteve, i certainly see why you love large projectiles so much. Im the latest addict :D Starting to train the long train for tech 2's now :D

Hey dude,
i have never used Dual 650mm or even the Tech II's, I use 800mm II for Ratting and Missions

[ 2006.01.05 20:00:15 ] (combat) Your 800mm Repeating Artillery II perfectly strikes Angel Centurion, wrecking for 516.4 damage

No damage mods though.

Remember that 1400/1200mm and 800/dual 650mm Tech II's are on different skill progressions, be sure what you want to go for Artillary or Autocannons.
 
In the hands of equally skilled pilots with good setups, a Raven would be expected to kill a megathron. Even if Mr Rah doesnt use the 'glitched' setup due to the insane tank and gank possible from a Raven means it should win.

Fights against the same class ship Caldari can nearly always win. Doing the same damage irrespective of range or tracking. Fortunatly we have EW
 
didn't know about these quirks with the mods, I've been working it out based on the mods etc giving lower returns like on other ships.

still, thing is, whats your range on the raven?

whats the max range on my mega? or armageddon? or Tempest?
maybe a vampire dom setup would change your mind?

Atm Caldari battleships rule the roost simply because of a bug with the module stacking system in the game.

This is what CryptKeeper is wanting to try out/prove..

However I would like to see how a Tempest or Dominix would perform with similar setups, though they do have less shield HP's.
 
Meh atm Caldari ships have got it good, to avoid flames of player skill lets just say I bet Mr Ra in a Raven could beat Mr Ra in any other non faction BS with the same limits of modules and EW.

The Raven can engage from like 0-100km and deal its max DPS vs another BS, take something like a blasterthron, its got to get in range and massively rely on Cap boosters to hold its tank and field off the 2 *** or even 2 Neuts that the raven pilot should be using. Against a domi the raven pilot can spare a slot for a Smartbomb or even 2 to ruin his day.

Oh and not to mention the imbalance that a Raven can completely tank a blasterthron long enough to kill him. I'd quite like to see a blaster buff and some boosts all round rather than a raven nerf..I dont really want to have to train a raven lol. But for the moment outside of duels I can live with it as EW and another BS wingman even up the odds.
 
So do we have a OC corp? tried a search but nothing came up.
I've just got the game and loving it, but I need to get myself a decent corp, any suggestions?

Yeah, if anyone ever tests the uber shield tanked raven, its good for one thing, tanking. It still puts our mediocre damage. In a 1v1, I'm confident a normal raven setup would be a cpr raven setup. That being said, I could kill any bs, including a faction bs with my normal raven simply because of MY skills, mods and setup. Even my raven vs a CN raven, I should win unless the pilot is very experienced at 1v1s.

If anyone wants to accept my challenge, post here.
