Ships Cytoscrambler - Advice Please

The bottom medium is for grom bombs augumented with rapid fire and penetrator munitions :D
I’m a big fan of penetrator munitions dumbfires these days. 100% breach chance. Usually I put it on a class 1 advanced missile launcher with high capacity. You start with 16/128. The missile flight takes some getting used to but the impact point is enormous.

Just for giggles I put a cyto and an advanced missile launcher on a fully engineered combat sidewinder a month or so ago and hunted anacondas and corvettes. It’s like a boss fight. Drop the shield and then take power plant shots. Wait for the kaboom.

My fun ship is a DBS with 2 cytos and 2 dumbfires with penetrator.
Sometimes i take it out for a spin and do pirate assassination missions. Condas are easy, but pirate FDL are a bit trickier to keep them in Cytos range
 
Lightweight on cytos is also an option for those small fighters trying to stay close to minimum thruster mass

not sure i woudl pick cytos over medium incendiary frags or med srb rail
Depends on your use case... Both of those weigh more, and have higher power requirements (meaning more weight for the bigger PP).
This is my "get a small-ish amount of anything, anywhere, fast" build, but it will also take out Elite Pirate Anaconda's and FDLs for when you get mission wrinkles.

Yeah, that’s another nice thing about cytos. Even when put in a larger hardpoints you’re not actually downgrading as long as you can keep it on target. There are no small hardpoints and very few mediums that can reach their level of DPS…against shields, anyway.
 
Cytoscramblers work well in combination with corrosive shells weapons (Frag Cannon, Pacifier, MC).
It allows to use them against armor as well when corrosive effect applied to armor.
2 cytos and 3 pacifiers - one of fastest ways to kill anything
