[PVP] Ragnarok

[Kalafok]

Being inspired by Helen's Avatar sanctum buster, I went and attempted a Ragnarok with similair purpose.

On paper it does a little better on DPS, 8357 with Menmatar Titan 5 at 51+50 range. This is with almost twice the tracking, though.
Other than that, similair tactics, but perhaps warp in closer. With Titanium Sabot the main damage type is Kinetic, which should help with the Guristas sanctums (someone suggested a Lev for those, but decided against due to explosion velocity limitations). And the drones are for killing small shit at range. Heavies can work pretty well against frigates because they will trail behind and do full damage.

I didn't price check every single officer module, so perhaps it might be better to drop down or jump up on a few modules, but if you're flying this you're not planning on losing this, are you? MWD is for warping to the next sanctum quickly, need moar sanctum!

So, here goes.

There is theory (this) and there is experience (helen's avatar).

Come back when you have actually tried it and can comment on it, we can all be EFT warriors.

[Kalafok]

If we can all be EFT warriors, what is keeping you from commenting on the fit?

[Helen]

Drones are fucking stupid and this officer shit is fucking clueless.

[Kalafok]

After much constructive and insightful comment, I decided to drop down a bit on officer modules. I also updated the stats accordingly.

Haha man look at the stats with officer mods and with just Republic Fleet/Domination/Shadow Serpentis stuff instead. There isn't enough dps difference to make it worthwhile paying out billions extra on officer gear.
And those rigs...

[Duckslayer]

e2-rdq in period basis has a vera cruz sanctum running ragnarok in it on occasion.
The more you know

[Kalafok]

The rigs are fine, the Burst Aerator II isnt really expensive (30-50m?). And like CastleBravo said in the Avatar thread, it's a 15% RoF bonus where even officer gyro's add 10.5%. So it adds quite a bit of damage. That doesn't leave much calibration, though. So I just went for moar tracking. Dirt cheap rig, if it isn't nessesary just swap it to something else and be a happy camper.

Any other suggestions or improvements on the actual fit or tactic?

To be honest I'm actually quite content to let you post about fitting stupid rigs on it. I'm guessing you are just EFT'ing it up and have never actually flown a titan.

[rojomojo915]

Rig it like you would normally rig a titan (EHP rigs) so that way when you actually need to use it combat, you are not the laughin stock on the eve-kill kb. The rest of the fit doesnt matter cause you can swap it whenever you need to seriously use this, just make sure you have a proper fit sitting somewhere accessible to swap out when needed.

[Shin_getter]

Given the high price of titans, and high isk/hr income, wouldn't it be okay to just plug in pvp rigs when you need them? T2 rigs is just an hour of ratting after all?

Pretty much that, plug in T2 EHP rigs when required.
Or ya know have one titan for ratting and another for pvp.

Yes, everyone should buy more titans!
