that ship needs worked on its inertia badly.. all the time its orbiting at half its speed. Velocity rig is useless if you reach only half the max velocity. Lowering inertia will give way better benefit.

Can anyone answer why you would ever pick this over an incursus? Very very similar ship, but the incursus has lower sig radius and higher speed. Only bonus difference is 20% shield resist on the merlin vs 37% better armour repair on the incursus. I have no idea how these measure up, but the base stats of the ships make the Incursus better overall.. right?

@occamssawzall34864 жыл бұрын
That’s nearly the same fit I ended up with, except one of the rigs is a cap use reduction on ab/mwd use. Biggest issue with the assault frig I have is with webs. One web, no problem. 2 webs or more than that and it’s terrifying. It crushes cruisers though, decent against frigates, seems to do poorly against destroyers. And the corax assault seems to be the compete opposite. Terrific against destroyers, and frigates, horrible against cruisers. Probably because it has a near battlecruiser sized sig with that MWD

@MarkTarsis4 жыл бұрын
The problem with the AB is getting double webbed. You end up taking a lot of damage while you kill off the webbers, especially with battlecruisers on grid. I can manage this okay in a destroyer with 3.5k armor(and 1400 active 200mm plate), but a frig can't do that. With the MWD the webs won't do anything to you, plus you can pretty much instantly get in and out of the pack you're trying to kill. With my AB destroyer I need to warp out / warp in if I get into trouble. With this assault I could basically just fly out / repair a bit / fly in.
