No, I’ll cry if I want, complain if I want, and adapt or unsub, if I want as well.

And there’s not a single thing you might say that will make a difference.

You use an active fit rupture for PvP ?. How you lose to less than 3 thrashers I have no idea as a rupture has cold autocannon dps of 340 to 540dps and drones ontop, a falloff of 20km , more dps and should have about 30k ehp against projectiles

Try against the new Fleet Thrashers, with their ROF bonus, the arty kity fits are utterly deadly.

Dead in 10 seconds, despite the reps and bling. ^^

My DPS at their range (a little beyond 20K) was considerably lower, in the 100- 150s

If you used a buffer tank, they wouldn’t kill you in 10 secs, as that would be doing 3000 dps to punch through 30k ehp. Active tanks are for PvE or for AFs/hacs/command ships etc.

Yup, already switched all my active rep ruptures to buffer tank already.

It pained me to do so, as I loved T1 active rep gameplay very much, but it was a long time ago, and Eve is now what it is.

You are not counting your drones, another 80 dps or so giving you about 200 dps.

The thrashers probably have about 5k ehp each to your 30k, both of them doing similar dps to you.

An ENI can easily kill a navy destroyer, maybe even 2 to 3.

I was counting drones.

They were not doing similar dps to me at all, they sat at their optimal, I was way passed my falloff.

So many more survival cues here for the harb, with killable drones and laser dps + falloff, neuts, ehp etc …

Id def take the fight personally.

Depends if it starts at range, vni is freaking scary with a massive tank but if the harby is mwd and has interdiction links with a fed navy web going to 20km, then it has a chance.

But it will be an extremely rough fight.

ENI rail fit can beat navy desi’s even multiple of them.  
Brawling it might take one and a half of them down.
