Alright, that's cool then. Chill, I was just lazy trusting your screenshots over double-checking the invisible prices.Originally Posted by prometheus
well yeah, you can whore on more mails that way duh
Swatting drones, annoying other frigates. Both viable uses.

I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those Thukkers, that way I wouldn't have to have any goddamn stupid useless conversations with anybody.
So basically the atron is the taranis of the T1 interceptors? As in it will run around apply retarded amount of DPS to its counterparts.
Here are some common fits for long range tackling;

They aren't running sebos because they don't get a range bonus, and they're fit for tank/drone swatting.
Tackle is off because I'm too lazy to do the load of extra hacking to get the 80% role bonus to work.
Atron still has the best damage, tracking, tank, agility, and is barely slower.
For killing other drones while keeping at range, the Atron is the best with the Slasher right behind.

Correct me if I'm wrong Prom but won't the Atrons lack of a tracking bonus hurt it with applied dps?
Atron has 9% more PG than Taranis
EDIT: And only 3 less CPU

Blasters have the best tracking in the game by a decent margin.
With web, no.
Without web, but with tracking mods (ie: the LR tackle fit posted), no.
why cant i shoehorn a satisfying dual prop thing onto the slasher....? *fiddlefiddle*
I'm not sure, having looked at your links, that I'd agree that the atron outperforms the other ships head and shoulders... the taranis has the same comparatively insane damage output but it's still certainly beatable solo still and the atron isn't exactly overwhelmingly better in the ehp or speed department.
Perhaps the executioner is lacking a bit (but then again, scorch), but i like most of the fits you put together (though ions + bigger plate on atron?) without thinking they're anything other than "just before inty" ships as they should be.
I tried to be cool and all I got was a lousy warning about my sig being too big.
I don't have anything against the Atrons performance, but am more concerned about the gross imbalance.
If the Atron is going to be that good, they could at least allow the others to compete.
Atron wins only due to raw blaster damage output... which can be situational. Still, I'm forced to agree with Prom; it remains the strongest of the lineup.
Atron's always been the 'Poor Man's Interceptor'... used to screw around null in a weaponless, MWD/Cap Battery II/Nano Atron in 2006 with shitty skills long before Warp to Zero, and still no one ever caught me.I'm stoked it can now mount some kind of weapons, and might even resub to fly it again. Cheapest fun there is in the game.
It is also by far the best when you go for fitting rails instead, so that's a dead argument.
The condor outdamages/outtanks @ extreme range, only because it has light missiles.
In every other situation, the Atron is on top.
Nice tracking with them rails.It is also by far the best when you go for fitting rails instead, so that's a dead argument.

Tackle something bigger than a frigate then.

All hail the Atron then? That the first ship you can climb in from the rookie is an amazing craft?It is also by far the best when you go for fitting rails instead, so that's a dead argument.

I can go for that.
Med neuts will ruin your Day same With drones or tracking bounused guns no?Tackle something bigger than a frigate then.
Fit like a scram range brawler w/ rails, its tracking is the best. The only ships with better range (not actual damage) are the laser ships. CloseRange rails > Scorch.Nice tracking with them rails.It is also by far the best when you go for fitting rails instead, so that's a dead argument.

Fit for long range with rails, it's tracking issues are mitigated by range.

119.3 max dps @ 10350+14625m
which yields..... ~100dps at 17.5km for anything that's not an MWD-bloom-bonus'ed frig and/or you don't ruin your own tracking.
edit: weird thing is..... it'd still be ~100dps at 15km w/o the falloff bonus o.O
