Combat and DED Sites Fits for T3C After Changes

PvE Gameplay Center PvE Ships & Modules
1

So it’s a little early for this, seeing as the changes won’t be live for another hour or so but I’m sort of at an impasse. I fly a Proteus and a Legion on two different characters and want to do some low/null combat and DED sites for isk generation. The Tengu is obviously the preferred choice but I’d rather not spend another ~2 months training into the hull and almost perfect missile skills.

Has anyone had any luck running these sites in either the Proteus or Legion (or both) prior to the changes or on SISI testing the new patch and what fits do you think would be optimal? Should I just give it up and cross train into the Tengu or is there still hope?

Keep in mind I’d probably be dual boxing for more DPS in sites/protection against hunters. Prefer lasers and rails if possible, if not blasters would be fine.

Thanks in advance. Excuse my newbroness, coming back in the last few weeks after a 3-4 year hiatus.

I used a Legion extensively prior to the changes:

Legion Defensive - Nanobot Injector

I haven’t played with a replacement on sisi but basic theorycrafting says the concept is still viable.

Before t3’s, ishtars tore apart 8/10’s easily, a 10/10 might require a warp out or 2. I wouldn’t use a t3 unless maybe 4/10…but I haven’t played in yrs.

It shows. t3s haven’t been allowed in 4/10s for years.

I’m tentatively swapping over to this:

Corpum A-Type Energized Thermal Membrane
Centum C-Type Medium Armor Repairer

Optimal Range Script x3
Tracking Speed Script x3
Imperial Navy Multifrequency M x13
Aurora M x12
Imperial Navy Ultraviolet M x21
Sisters Core Scanner Probe x16
Gleam M x12

I’m not sure I want it in a 5/10 but I see no problems in 6/10 and 7/10. Higher level and you’ll likely want to play around with other options.

Thanks @Zhilia_Mann for the fit. I’m at 482.1 dps and 17,64 EHP with 76/69/44/60 armor resists, but I’m not at all 5’s either. 600m/s with an optimal of 25km, falloff of 40km with navy multifreq. Is that EHP kind of low or is that just me? Maybe I should run this on sisi first before I lose 700m in ship/fit.

My skills – which I think are perfect now? – I’m getting 538 DPS at 51+16 or 717 DPS at 29+16. So yeah; I’m guessing you really need to get your offensive subsystem skills up.

As for defense: don’t care about EHP. I’m showing this fit tanking ~320 against Blood Raiders, which honestly I’m not that thrilled with but it should do for most of what I need. I’ll carry another defensive sub for 5/10s until I figure out if I’m screwed on sisi.

By the by, Proteus fits nearly the same:

[Proteus, deds]
Federation Navy Magnetic Field Stabilizer
Federation Navy Magnetic Field Stabilizer
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Corpum A-Type Medium Armor Repairer
Corpum A-Type Energized Thermal Membrane
Corpum A-Type Energized Kinetic Membrane

Sisters Expanded Probe Launcher, Sisters Core Scanner Probe

Medium Hybrid Collision Accelerator II
Medium Semiconductor Memory Cell I

Proteus Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
Proteus Core - Augmented Fusion Reactor
Proteus Offensive - Hybrid Encoding Platform
Proteus Propulsion - Chassis Optimization

More damage, less range, slightly worse cap. My concern on this one is it’s just slow.

Loki can also do a ridiculous armor fit along these lines:

[Loki, BR test arties armor]
Republic Fleet Gyrostabilizer
Republic Fleet Gyrostabilizer
Republic Fleet Gyrostabilizer
Corpum C-Type Medium Armor Repairer
Corpum A-Type Energized EM Membrane
Corpum A-Type Energized Thermal Membrane

Medium Projectile Burst Aerator II
Medium Projectile Locus Coordinator I

Loki Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
Loki Core - Augmented Nuclear Reactor
Loki Offensive - Projectile Scoping Array
Loki Propulsion - Intercalated Nanofibers

Acolyte II x5

Lower damage, sure, but 720s are so damn efficient that I can’t complain. Stable. Highly tanky (for what I need). Fast. I like it.

Left over from the old fit. Definitely don’t need it now; Legion has more grid than it knows what to do with the Antimatter Reactor. Not that I’m complaining. Safest bet is probably a T1 nano pump, at which point it reps about like my old fit.

I’m still concerned about the increased sig, but the speed boost is probably enough to make up for it. Loss of lock time and range is annoying but I can’t see justifying dropping a heat sink to get the Dissolution Sequencer back on there.

Tried a site in a Proteus. IT DID NOT GO WELL. Might just need to adjust for reps though. I took 9k damage. Still theory crafting though. Will try again on SISI or something.

Supposedly, unless Eve Uni’s information is out of date, only a 6/10. Being warped directly into the center didn’t help either. Ill have to pull my web history when I get a chance a little later.

542 DPS at 29+54. Tanks like a beast for BR/Sansha. Happens to be cap stable on top of it. Volley is almost too high; 5174 if you use all five guns.

Haven’t had it out much yet. The Legion posted above does fine; 6/10 completion time is up a bit but since it no longer requires a refit from a probing setup I think it comes out in a wash.

Swap HAM for HML on ranged rooms.

Havent tested in practice, but Id hope the huge speed tanks sufficiently.

The projectile/armor builds seem pretty crap compared to the missile/shield builds if you ask me.

Especially with 100mn builds which impair projectiles but aid missiles.

Loki is a whole new kind of schizophrenic now between not only shield/armor, but projectile/missiles as well.

I was considering something like this for Angels. It’s kind of a weird fit:

Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II
Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II
Medium Core Defense Capacitor Safeguard II

Loki Core - Immobility Drivers
Loki Offensive - Projectile Scoping Array
Loki Defensive - Covert Reconfiguration
Loki Propulsion - Wake Limiter

Webs out to 31.5km, beyond the optimal for the arties. Only 443 DPS, which is kind of ■■■■. Tank is certainly sufficient for most purposes though.

I really haven’t found a shield/arty fit I love yet. HAM may be the way to go. Not sure on the 100MN though simply because it lacks the agility you need to keep the missiles in range.

Why the small shield booster on that fit? If you’re going with a small it had best be deadspace, at least a pithi B-type. Otherwise just put a large on there; it looks like a C5-L fits and is still technically stable.

I’d personally swap the damage control for a missile guidance enhancer as well. Application can be a bitch on Angels and the bit of extra range doesn’t hurt.

whatever drones.

Resist amps are cheap and make up for the damage control, large booster is stable, jav missiles get out to 42.7km. Still don’t like the look of 32 second align but it’s an interesting concept.

32… second… that’s crazy. Is that with the 100MN AB running? I have to imagine the allign time drops significantly if you’re out of AB cycle.

Its basically better Tengu in almost every way. Does more dps but with one less launcher and 5 small drones so your missile stock will last you longer. And it has utility high :slight_smile:
