The *Official* Eve Online Thread

looks ok to me, i'm running 3 heaveys and 2 standars (ussually two assualts but i'm playing around with the set up and trying a larger shield tank)

On my mids i've got a 10mm ab, medium shield boster (will change to a T2 when I get back into high sec) and two large shield extenders giving me almost a 5000 point shield (not sure if i'll keep it or go back to just one yet though)

on my lows i've got two warp stabilizers since i'm hunting npc rats in 0.0 atm. Its working ok for me at the moment, but i'm going to have to make some changes when I get back into high sec. I can take down 200-300kish rats fairly easily, and I can break 650k battleship rat tanks, but it takes ages.

If you want some (probobly better than what i've got atm) carcal setups check around pages 117 or so, I was given several very got setups from the guys here, as well as which skills to focus on.

EDIT: and congrats on getting a carcal definitly one of my favorite ships so far, it took me 3 weeks or so to get my first one (probobly because my blackbirds kept getting blown up :p), i've been playing a month and 20 some days, and i'm on my 4th so far I think :D

ingame name is Bren Mackay btw incase I ever run into you.


EDIT 2: 25million loot? no fair you've got all the luck :p, best i've got so far is 1ish million :(

hehe. I've been there before (with other characters) and not sure if I want to do it again but I bored of the game at the moment and want to add a new dimension to it.

Just been installing my new killboard for myself, it can be viewed at www.guc.mattclegg.co.uk. Just thinking about this, perhaps an OcUK board would be a nice idea? Any views on this? I can put it on a subdomain and have all the code for it.

I have recently got back into Eve but unfortunately due to my long absence I have forgotten a lot fo stuff. I am using a Caracal and would really like to long range snipe with heavy missiles, what sort of setup should I have?
 
check around page 117 or so, I got some good carcal PVE setups from people here. With heavey launchers and missle skills you can max out your targeting range of 57km pretty easily.
 
I flew a caracal for most of the pvp championships in October.

A good setup would be:

highs: 5x heavy missle launcher 2s
mids: 10mn MWD, 2x sensor booster 2 (bring max range well above 120/130 depending on skills), 2x remote sensor dampner IIs (use these on your taget when your at long range and they won't be able to lock you)
lows: up to you. 2x ballstic control units is popular or bcu + damage control mod.

That a pvp setup. Not much use for pve or for soloing, but works really well in 1v1s (assuming EW is allowed) or in small groups.

Your other option is to put large shield extenders and invulnerability fields in the mid slots. This makes your ships reall quite tough compared to other cruisers. With t2 fury missles and this kind of setup, you will be ANY cruiser in a 1v1. Even a *** maller/ *** vexor, plated rax.
 
right this coming saturday there is a competition in my corporation. a range competition

it'll be a case of who can do the most damage over 100km

the winner gets a full set of Tech 2 guns for the ship their ship of their choice.

what ship + guns do people reccomend?

i wan' 'em :p
