[PVP] Chimera

[Karok Vilneram]

So my Archon seems to have a much easier time fitting cap transfer AND two armor reppers and two heavy nuets. I cant get a Chimera to do that without a co-CPU. This I what I have so far.

Yes, that's what ppl hate about shield tanked capital ships.

You can probably get +30 cpu (for +150M isk) from a named capital shield booster and +14 cpu (for ~50M?) for each shield hardener you factionize.
You can also save +15 cpu if you downgrade your SBA but you might not want that much.

btw aren't you going to run out of cap pretty quickly with that fit?

I've found your problem.

[Sparkus Volundar]

Rep Fleet boost amps are 40 CPU like meta 4 but a 32.5% bonus. Dunno about costs mind.

Do Shield boost amps not work on capital boosters? Do Crystal Implants?

Yes. No.

I have my own question. Why do you never see these as Triage boats? Given how cheap they are I would have thought you could have a lot of fun with one as sole logi a gang of max gank BS or even BCs. Anyone have experience of this?

Raven fleets aren't very popular, Rokhs aren't very gank, and minnie ships works on hit and GTFO basis.

[Badboy K]

drake fleets are in though

[Cue1*]

I have seen them and used them myself as suicide triage, usually on a dieing super or a dieing POS. Few fleets out there are shield heavy enough to need triage. I suppose there's the goons welp fleet, but TBH, that's a welp fleet.

[Sponk]

capital shield reps are definitely better when applied to subcaps tho, since it counters a lot of alpha at the start of the cycle.

Same idea, just use a leviathan and comparable/better EHP(better resists too).

MOAR deeps(922), and once you lock, you get reps - no more getting alpha'd before reps can land (pretty much the only thing that kills these nowadays tbh).

Lasts 6m32s running full bore. Shut one shield xfer off and you're very stable (~49%). Idea is run both shield xfers until friendly cap's tank stabilizes, then just swap to one, pulsing second if really needed(same technique as scimitars tbh).

Why is it better than the other caps? Has more dps while maintaining pr0 levels of EHP and awesome.
