Taking the KIKIMORA Into C3 Combat Sites! || EVE Online

[@Seeker-ie8xd]

C13's are wolf rayet whs with C6 or max wolf rayet affects (200% bonus to small weapon damage) and can only be accessed by frig holes which the kiki can travel through. there are C3 sites in the C13 and youll see kikis and confessors running those sites all the time!! its amazing fast with 200% bonus damage. also its safer then C3 wolf rayets bc the kiki becomes tankier with 100% bonus to armor hit points in a C13, instead of the ~50% in C3 wolf rayets. from what Ive found you can DPS tank in C13 sites and run it with 2 damage mods in the lows and one resist mod or even a plate since the bonus to hit points is enormous in C13's

[@captainbenzie]

Yup!

[@smoore6461]

That was a heck of an ending sir! It just gies to show the value of staying calm and keeping your wits about you. Others might have freaked out and im guessing panic would have been death.

[@captainbenzie]

Absolutely! Staying calm is the best thing you can do. Panicking makes for mistakes and juddery reactions.

[@The_Jag_Dude]

Hah I remember having my mind blown when I discovered C3 kikis, I just like slapping on a reactive instead of one of the membrane. Also, the Kiki is very much able to run regular C3 sites :D

[@captainbenzie]

Yeah, I've since tried standard C3s and you're right, it's great! I've also swapped to the Reactive.

Signed up as a recruit using your link. I played for 6 years in the beginning. Got a ton of ships and rare stuff. Cant wait to join you all and get my hands on a Kikimora.

Awesome!! 🚀

Enjoyed that ending! Well done!

Me too!

Great videos, love them , keep them coming 🍺🇳🇴🇳🇴

Thanks, will do!

[@dvoiika117]

Hello, Benzie! Love your videos, they are super informative. I would like to ask you a question. Recently i have bought a kikimora, but i can't even remotely achieve your level of damage output. With your fit and the best ammo i only have around 110 basic dps. That's twice less than in the video. On what factors does the damage output of the ship depend and how can i improve it?

[@captainbenzie]

Firstly, as I say in the video, this is in a Wolf Rayet video which increases small weapon damage, that's why it starts higher. Remember the dps ramps too ☺️

[@bansheelgend]

Wolf Rayet Kikimora make isk printer go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[@captainbenzie]

😂

[@pnksmigge5324]

Ahhh, didn't find it on my own, nice vid!

[@captainbenzie]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@Doogie53]

Correct me if I am wrong but I read somewhere that this ship's size is equal to three soccer pitches now that's huge. I also use Tracking Enhancers in my low slots when using Entropic ships as they give you a lot more range.

[@captainbenzie]

I don't actually know! I think there's a measurement on game somewhere, but yeah, these are all sizeable ships! Even some of the frigates are pretty big. Tracking Enhancers is a great idea too!

[@Rashuge]

I know you dont like ammar but man i love a confessor in a c3 wolf

[@captainbenzie]

Yup! I showcased exactly that in a video recently! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rICqqaifiquYhdk

[@Rashuge]

@captainbenzie I must have missed it will have to check it out!

[@bloostudios2130]

I got a blueprint of this ship I worked maybe 2-3 days mining and doing abyssal deadspace to create the ship, sad thing is when I created it I need omega. So what do I do now?

[@captainbenzie]

Either sell the ship or get omega 😊

[@bloostudios2130]

I want to try the build so I think Ill save?@@captainbenzie

[@555edu555]

Hi Benzie, I know you are more into wh right now, but I am missing one ship that I don't see in your channel since the first time I watched a video in your channel: The Rupture;

[@captainbenzie]

Video coming soon!!

[@Spiritt_Daphiti]

Try look for abbys sink ( rolled for speed spool up ) get low Mimesis clone omega .., 10mn AB , republic and thukker cap baterys more ress on neuts .....if you blink it.......fit it all, not a few ...triglavians are best when isk come in use .o7

[@captainbenzie]

You don't need to bling it. It works fine as you can see here ☺️

[@Spiritt_Daphiti]

@@captainbenzie try Ikitursa ;) = mini Dread :) and you didnt 220M kikimora , i though is a Draugur whit t2s ...puling 1.2k+ Dps ;)

[@age3803]

Yeah @captainbenzie try the Iki

[@milestonegaming31]

Does this thing still work? I’m trying to find relatively cheap c3 fits. Also does it need to be Wolf Rayet or does it not matter

[@captainbenzie]

It still works. Very few ships have changed recently, and wormholes haven't at all. Kiki can do non WR C3 but it's tough and risky. Check the playlist for better, cheaper options 😊

[@milestonegaming31]

@@captainbenzie dang I never thought I’d get a response to this let alone within the day. Thanks Benzie. I will look at some of the others

[@captainbenzie]

@@milestonegaming31 hope it helps!!

[@stefanoamadei335]

Hi Cap! Is there a reason why you choose cap batteries over cap rechargers? If i simulate using 2 cap recharger t2 instead of the republic small batteries i get 7.1 Gj/s cap instead of your 5.4 and its way more cheaper, is it because i has lower max capacitor?

[@captainbenzie]

It's also for the Cap Warfare resistances on the batteries. Less overall stability, but more resistant to neuts.

[@yawgmoth3669]

u r totally ignoring 2 great role bonusses :C well probably dont need the neut in pve and the rem. armor rep in solo...

[@captainbenzie]

I'm only ignoring them because they're not relevant to the content I'm running here 😉

[@555edu555]

I tried this same build yesterday in a WolfR C3, but got ripped appart in the last wave, probably cz them spawned at 50km from me... how would I solve it? warp out and try warpin in closer?

[@captainbenzie]

It's knowing where the spawn points are. You can start to move towards them before they spawn or, yes, warp out and back in.

[@555edu555]

@@captainbenzie ill look into that. Luckily I managed to recover the velesh and the batteries later with my hurricane fleet (plus a vexor, didnt want to risk loosing another one heheh, but the hurricane did actually well, afterwards I cleared +2 c3 fortifications with it, you could do a video on this one)

[@fadeduser33]

Instead of using the tech 2 energized membranes can I use the meta compact multi spectrum energized membranes?

[@captainbenzie]

Yes. You'll be a bit softer but it'll work.

[@age3803]

It seems you have a corpmate that lives Trig ships. What is the difference between Veles and T2 weapons?

[@Christoph.403]

Time to train into T2's is a lot longer than the veles

[@goofytycooner5519]

like other faction guns, the Veles has lower fitting requirements than T2 while outputting even better damage. As a bonus, it doesn't even need T2 skills to be equipped, though it can't use T2 ammo until those specialization skills are trained This comes at the cost of being significantly more expensive, costing almost 80mil vs the T2's 30mil

[@captainbenzie]

Different guys between the Drek and Kiki video! Veles is better than T2 but a LOT more expensive.

[@ottomcannick7698]

I wonder what corpmate that was? Sounds like a real bell-end. Also, would it run all the combat sites in the c3-wolf?

[@captainbenzie]

Yup! And nah, he seems like a pretty awesome guy!

[@Christoph.403]

Man that was close!! Lol I just found the Concord ships and i am loving them!! The pacifier is an absolute beast. Throw a faction scram on and its a miners worst nightmare lol

Oe benzie, why this video has a DELETE in the title?

[@captainbenzie]

Whoops... because I uploaded a bad version, fixed it, reuploaded and copied the details from the original. Let's fix that, shall we? 😂

[@TechnoL33T]

That damage ramp is so good! Also I love small ships!

[@captainbenzie]

Small ship ❤️

[@lonniefennel4024]

And another happy ship. That clencher at the end though... ooof. Lucky escape and awesome run. So, I would like to point out something you said in a previous video. This was a less than perfect run and yet it powered right through despite your mistake. That is the mark of a truly great fit. Thanks for the "spicy" ending. That was great. For the record, I started clenching for you as if I were in that ship. Lol

[@captainbenzie]

Haha thank you ☺️

Awesome :) They got a real hard wrecking shot at the end good thing you survied that :)

[@andresrico2701]

great content

[@captainbenzie]

Thank you! 🚀

[@Kriby88]

If the kiki started at 475 dps and target died at 1140 dps the actual average dps was (475+1140)/2 = 807.5, dunno if that makes me a trig hater, it's decent for sure but it's easy to kid yourself with trig ship dps too

[@captainbenzie]

807.5 DPS on a Destroyer. That's more than many of the C3 runners I used regularly.

[@jollygreen4662]

Would this ship be well suited for lvl 5 agent combat missions?

[@captainbenzie]

No
