Hello,
first - I'd like to apologize if this an incorrect place to ask, but it seems I can’t find a better.
I want to ask you guys about the viability of running WF missions (pref Caldari ones) in stealth bomber. Two years ago, when I took a break from EVE I was not into mission runnin’ stuff and have only randomly heard/red about the possibility to do it, but now I am eager to try this aspect of the game.
So is it still doable?
Erm google is good, I was reading loads about it yesterday..
Yes it's doable.
No it's not a case of get into SB -> receive money.
Do you mean vs Calcari, or vs Gallente as a Caldari FW member?
No. A Rhinoceros is not a fat Unicorn.
It's shit vs caldari because ecm, doable against gallente and minmatar, easiest is against amarr
I mean Caldari vs Gallente.
Should be easy. You want a bit of tank so you don't get randomly alpha'd, a painter and BCUs to maximise dps and maybe a sensor booster because the Feds damp you.Originally Posted by Mayar
Something like this:
[Manticore, FW]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
1MN Afterburner II
Caldari Navy Small Shield Extender
Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron
Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range
Siege Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Juggernaut Torpedo
Siege Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Juggernaut Torpedo
Siege Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Juggernaut Torpedo
Covert Ops Cloaking Device II
[empty high slot]
Small Warhead Calefaction Catalyst I
Small Bay Loading Accelerator I
620 dps and 60km range with max skills. Just plink away at max range.
P.S.Don't smack talk Dramiel pilots. It only encourages them and they'll follow you round all day.
The trick with FW missions is to have two characters both in FW and have one in a nanoboat (like a dp taranis or dramiel, use a cynabal if you are not space poor) and then have the other in a full gank bomber... All BCU's, 2x torp, ab, web*, full rack + cloak, and warhead cc's. Collect up as many missions as you can, in a reasonable amount of time (Don't fly 10j just to get +1 more missions) and decline any that are not in the area you are going to be running them (try to pick about 10-12 systems in a cluster and only accept the ones in that area). Do this for both toons and you should have about 16 or so to do at one time.
Warp the nanofag in and draw room aggro (orbit 100k from something in the room and then focus on the bomber), wait a sec to see if any griefers are going to try to fuck with you, warp in the bomber and take out the targets for this mission. If there are secondary or tertiary spawns, just pop the cloak as soon as they spawn, wait for alt to grab aggro, then go back to pounding the targets of interest. Can also instacloak if someone warps into your mission.
Protip: Don't run Cutting the Net (waste of time having to turn back in the item)
Protip: Use the autopilot to sort your waypoints for each system you have a mission in to find the shortest route to all of them.
If you can't be arsed to run two characters or are too RL poor to have two accounts or a computer that can do it, here is a great solo bomber option for killing gallente boats if you are fighting for caldari:
[Nemesis, vs Gallente]
Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System
Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System
Domination 1MN MicroWarpdrive
F-90 Positional Sensor Subroutines, Targeting Range Script
F-90 Positional Sensor Subroutines, Targeting Range Script

Cap stable @ 34%
452 dps
3646 volley
131.2 range with Jav's

This keeps you well away from the blaster range of the rats and far enough away that most sensor damps wont land on you...
