I need to get on the test server to test ideas, but from what i saw large shield extender 2s only take 165 power instead of 440 for +2100 shields. So i can fit a few without problems. A med extender II gives +840 and the grid usage is going down to 28PG or so. Hippo can probably toss it on his hawk and easily get 2000 shields on the thing. Only tradeoff is sig radius increase which makes you easier to hit, but i don't think that is a drastic incrase that would make an assault frig look like a battlecruiser or something.

I just tanked a dual 1.1M serpentis BS spawn on the test server in a ferox

setup:

5x Arbalest Heavy
2x Dual 150mm Prototype Gauss

2x LG Extender 2 (+4200 shields )
1x Kinetic Hardener
1x Thermal Hardener
1x T2 Large shield booster

1x Beta PDU
2x Pandemonium BCU
1x Quantum CPU

My fitting skills are junk on Sisi since the mirror is a bit old. Heavy ROF is 7.99 seconds and they do about 220 unhardened per hit. Average hits against me were in the 40-70 range and my shields stayed around 1/3-1/2 and didn't really need to activate the booster much. Total shield strength is 8,760.7 which is rather insane . The loot tables look fixed now as I've gotten 1600mm named plates from both battleships

Haha, i kill himanyway next time i saw him for that. I was using AM M at the time, and i was already aligned with hardeners active when the gate activated (i can only tank for about 10 seconds in it). I targetted, scrammed, and opened up. Me being aligned threw off my transversal enough that every shot missed (he wasat my extreme closest range). The missiles hit him once, and got him to half armor, but i had to warp when my shields hit 0. So i click warp to planet, and it did its ghey 'lets make you align for a hour' thing, and I went through armor, and by the time it warped me, i was at 17% structure.



And phreak, my Hawk died to a nosdom last night, so i'll be sure to test that theory on a new one... Not one of my named or T2 guns/modules died. Just the ammo, and a magstab died.

Get on Sisi, everything is $100 at the fight club station and you get a billion dollars to play with. The only thing is that the skill mirror is old, but they have +3 implants for $100 as well.

I know, but as you said, the missor is old. I have engineering and mechanic 5 still to do there... Nowhere near guns there either...

100 ISK. Damnit!

Yeah, people hoarded things too mcuh, so they killed the hangers and just put everything on the market for 100isk, and geve everyone 1bil.

Actually I was referring to the usage of 100 Dollars. It's ISK ISK ISK FFS! hehe. Found a website the other day that actually included EVE isk in the exchange rates. Something like 1mil per 0.4 USD.
