Sorry I just get irritated when noobs drop their garbage ship builds and then try to convince everyone it's the best possible build out there. Clearly that's not the case so I apologized for jumping to conclusions. I would argue that having virtually no real way to get your shields back is a bit of a hindrance in my opinion.
I'm with DRTY Co and we've been ganking at the CG lately. Maybe I'll bump into soon

Hey its all good, no salt here. I just couldn't work out what got you so offside.
I've met lotsa Drty Co' over the last few months so I'd say us bumping into each other is pretty much inevitable.
All my ship ID's are "OK GO", which will give you some idea about my views to a good stoush.
I got no hate for griefers, to me they are the best part of the game by a mile.
Although I strictly do not kill noobs, some of my best mates in-game fly with A.M, Vail, TOC etc,
which makes me KOA for IED , EXO and so on, which is.... amusing!

I used a build very similar to yours for quite a while, but I just found the extra 50% shield and hull far more robust when I'm focussed. I hear what your saying about no real way to get my shields back, but the flip side to this argument is that it takes twice as long for my opposition to get them down in the first place, and plenty of hull to continue the fight long after theyre gone. I often fly shieldless ships so kiting and avoidance are second nature to me by now.

The problem I found with high resistance/low value builds is their vulnerability to raw damage/phasing pa's.
If you look at "Slum Dunk" it hits with apx 400 raw per pass, with phasing on the huge and one med.
Forgetting skill for a moment, If we hit each other each pass your shields are gone in 5 passes, your hull in another 4.
I can tank you and still have half value when yours drop. That's a problem, regardless of resistance.

I probably wont make it to Meene as I'm working away but I'm looking forward to some jousting when I get home.
Im also keen to check out h.a.a.a.n.d.s, for which I've joined the discord but have yet to find time.
Hit me up any time, cheers.

Why is this a question? As much as I keep saying about how over-rated and normie the FDL is, it is far superior in PvP than any Krait any day. (assuming pilots are similar in skill, gotta take into account variables like that ofc)

Coming from someone who has said you only fly the Vette because you get killed in everything else.

The Krait is fantastic at pvp. You probably just don't know how to build it right.

I've been arguing with you in the pvp section for over a week.
Not once have you made a single positive or constructive comment. Literally everything you've posted in this section has been a complaint or criticism of some kind with no solutions. You've over exaggerated many, many topics and when you've been called out you just ignore the comment and go to another thread to spew more nonsense.
Your posts on this forum are untrue, over exaggerated and just obnoxious.
I've tried to have many legitimate conversations and debates with you but you just respond with salty, nonsensical arguments that takes the conversation no where.
By all means, continue doing what you're doing but I'm going to be right here calling you out on your nonsense when I see it.

Even in this thread, you arrogantly say that the FDL is far more powerful than the Krait which is just false and if you actually took part in pvp regularly you would know this.
A Krait mkii outfitted with all gimballed multis will absolutely crush a FDL. They're a lot more evenly matched than you think and instead of just posting your uniformed opinion maybe you should do a little research first.

As this is a old discussion, I don't know if it's the right place, but would this be a reasonable PvP-Build for a Krait Mk II or am I missing out a big thing? Seems to be quite fragile... .
Weaponry is not that important, as I do have rails and Pacifiers or what the heck in the trunk.

Try using the short-link on Coriolis is possible. I can't get this link to work. Of course, it could be the site or on my end. Would like to check it out though.

Update: Skipped the Krait MK II for that purpose and got myself an FDL. Avoided it for sixteen month, but I really must admit that it's a very fine ship. It's the only non-FaulconDeLacy in my fleet, but what the ... .
I use my MK II for AX-Combat only and the Phantom would be PvPready as well, but I will try the FDL for that right know.
