3x multicanons is a way to go with this ship :D

It let you have 4 pips in shields all the time, maxing out tank effect. Plus, low energy consumption of multicanons allow you to have 2 shield boosters and 3 SCB (or other way around, whatever you prefer).

Personally i prefer 4 shield boosters and 4 SCB, and 4 pips in the shields all the time. And i tried multicannons and now i am in love with them.

Currently 2x pulse and a cannon.

I dont specialize in combat but this setup is usually enough to deter any unwanted attention from people when im transferring goods of a questionable legality.

My setup is well suited to killing big ships. 2 pulse lasers and a plasma accelerator on the bottom.

It's probably terrible in pvp, but I tend to avoid that anyway.

I use it to make high speed passes, eating though their shields bit by bit. Once they are down, highlight something important and knife fight for a good plasma accelerator shot. You can kill a conda shield generator in one hit (did that by accident once). I'd pay a fortune for a bigger power dist.

The rest of it is bounty hunter equipped with a bit of cargo space for utility. Also useful for rescuing those poor stolen slaves. I might try the 3 multicannon route. Seems like a great tank setup.

-edit-

if it shows cargo racks, replace 'em with fuel tanks and you'll have my setup

It's useless to have class 3 fuel scoop as you will never maximize the scoop efficiency, courier heats too much too quickly. I have class 1 fuel scoop and can't get maximum scooping with it.

I have a 2A and have no problem maxing it. ships refuelled before i start taking damage. I'd say you're scooping wrong :p I travelled back to fed land to help a friend who'd just started and had no issues losing 2 cargo space for double speed fuelling.

I had A2 fuel scoop which has 75kg/s max scooping. Never got passed 25kg/s or so before temp got critical.

Switched to A1 which has 45kg/s and still can't get max scoop value.

And I know how to scoop :D Never had heating problem on my vulture while scooping. :rolleyes:


Never the less, it's a fighter ship, so I rather have bigger SCB than fuel scoop.

Same story here: with a A2 fuel scoop if i get around 30Kg/s the courier will overheat slowly but steady, is start around 65% and then climb slow and steady. I can get a stable refuel around 25Kg/s with 61 max 63% heat.
