As Gizzie Haslack ( my wormhole toon ) I have a killmail on me for a dual tanking Battleship, and not much else…
That’s because I tend to live behind a cloaking device, but…
Dual Tanking. The sin that is.
.
The initial ship was a Battlecruiser. T1 insured, & out ratting in low. It had a small shield repper and a medium armor repper.
The bulk of my tank was to be armor, but the shield repper was to make sure I always had maximum ehp as I sniped. And it was also about tricking the enemy.
That’s the one that died. Against 4 baddies it was never going to survive, but…
The Proto did survive.
The shields tanked, and when they went down the 2 attacking strats dropped their scrams.
And I used the armor tank to survive a bit longer than, I guess, they expected as I warped out.
Deception.
I was taught that most EVE players all think the same way, and that that is how you beat them. I may not be a god, but that first ship did survive ( I can only assume that the 2 Strats were also flown by newbs ).
Spreadsheets in space? Or raw math & trickery in space?
Trickery is good I used to do silly things to ppl.
An example my station in curse was camped by 3 arty nados I had an insta made by corp but didn’t trust it worked 100% of the time.
Since I wanted to bleed my campers too I fit an apoc with artillery myself undocked nados shot me I didn’t die I shot 1 back killed it and warped off
Another would be way way back a small gang of covert ships were camping a pipe system belonging to some incompetent alliance I was in.
Knowing that I’d look like some random fool going for the gate I got a PvP harbinger and went in killed a pilgrim arazu and 2 bombers alone their last ship a ceptor simply had to let me go with all his buddies dead
Well you need to work on it by that fit I can tell you don’t understand much about ship fitting
The good ones fit for a target, the normies fit for everything. The former requires more time finding a target, and the latter is far more of a gamble.
Example: You want to hunt. You decide you will hunt amarrian ships exclusively, therefore strengthening your tank against EM and TH, maybe combined with a neut.
