Okay. Just hang tight while I go grab my Avalanche with its approximate 750,000 EHP…

Drop the silly faction istabs, use T2 and a EM-705 implant instead. Way cheaper and opens up a rig slot as well. Most BR can do this, some can not. Enduring makes no sense, go for Restrained, and if you fly in HS then go for a Y-T and a med extender with (in this case) explosive amp.
I didn’t claim it was a perfect fit, just that I could get it under 2s.
Thanks for the advice anyway, it mostly seems sane.
Enduring does make sense if you want to use your hauler to burn off something to make an instawarp bookmark, which is why I use one.
I don’t go to highsec much, but I’m dubious about the MSE, tbh the dual Invuls isn’t great either, but then as I said this isn’t a perfect fit.
Sorry But that second comes at a steep cost. You lose to much in using those three slots all on it’s own. A better way is to use a rig and maybe a slot. But three You lose too many benefits. All for what a second? When a rig and a slot or in the above case two rigs buys you that second easier and leaves you with more options.
I use this fit on my Viator. Only swapping out the two faction modules. For the none faction modules. Affordability was the main reason. Still the fit has seen me be booth quick and using the slots for a more efficient CPU and Power Grid.
I am fast and have enough tank to be able to take a few hits. You will also notice that I do not use any Afterburner or Microwarp on this. It is meant to be fast into warp and landing at a gate.
I use a similar fit to this on deluge Note again the efficiency of both the CPU and Power Grid. Because here is what most people. When you need the power and the ability to get everything going in a hurry. Under fire and trying to keep everything under control. The last thing one should be worrying about is suddenly running out of power and your CPU punks out.
My Deluge may not look pretty or even trying to out run something. But by the Gods it does have some teeth and is fast about getting into warp. And can take a pounding.
Also I am not an expert. But I have seen ships go up and expensive ones at that for having a fit that invited a killmail and being a pretty fireball in the sky.
I reduce the risks to a manageable levels. And then roll the dice along with everyone else. The difference is that I roll dice weighted as much in favor as I can.
Now those two ships are used only when I have something expensive and need to get it back to my station in a hurry. I have other haulers and such that I fly for other purposes. If I am going out to dodixie just to pick up some minerals and sundry. I have a couple of haulers and if need be I can get a hold of freighter easy enough. For anything that would require such a large ship. But chances are i would contract such a shipment out. And not try and be cheap and haul it myself. That gets a lot of players into trouble as well.
And here is the last bit. At some point my luck and my ability to avoid trouble is going to run out in a large way. It is going to happen. I have no illusions that i am somehow special. I am not. I will congratulate the player(s). With a good cheer. Because this is just a game. And PVP is still the heart of the game, Exordium aside of course.
I’m getting the following on this:
Cruising Speed: 237.2 m/s
Warp: 7.35AU/s
Align: 3.97s
That’s a lot to lose for a 4 second align time.
My Deluge:
Cruising Speed: 2,336m/s
Warp: 11.18AU/s
Align: 8.72s
I have a Warp Stab II if I see trouble just like you do. If I get the chance to activate my MWD, or my cloak, I’m gone never to be seen again. I only need a second to activate either. Limping along at slow speeds isn’t an option.
While under gate cloak, I have all the time in the world to choose a planet or moon instead of the next gate if I see trouble. Then, I activate the Warp stab, align for warp, and recloak hoping for the best. It’s not fullproof, but nothing is in this game. I’ve escaped a gate camp before on speed alone when I was warp disrupted.
Hey there Starcleric,
First you should know, the developers don’t read the forums at all. They come here and deposit their blogs or maybe they get some unpaid intern to do it for them. This is what I covered in the HUD blog.
I will try not to repeat myself from @FC_Swift / @CCP_Swift blog post. Notice I have linked his ID tag here yet he will never respond to anything or anyone positive or negative. This whole forum is just a dumping ground for them to pat each other on the back about making money for nothing.
Also the people who inhabit the forum are here for shits and giggles. They are always derailing anything until we have nothing but garbage to play. EVE Online was “fun” for a few years then I quit tipping the dancing bear long ago. I will continue to hangout with the alpha group I am hooked up with, but never saw EVE Online as a good investment.
Too much change without communication and they wonder why people left or why the fat cats and whales don’t spend money here. All they had to do was read and of course pick through the truth and the lies.
As for the new HUD, that is a done deal. In fact, the deal was done at Fanfest last spring. Fenris will only placed this blog here to say “Hey everybody look at what I can do!”. They will “tweak it” but they are simply going to force their crap upon us sometime next year. Next year, I will be spending my money on a Caribbean Cruise, I am currently window shopping for ex-wife number three. I know where I won’t be spending my money.
Fly safe o7

One second has saved me a time or two in the past. 
Steep cost how?
A 3s align time is one of the strongest defenses your paper-thin hauler could have, and is significantly better than a 4s align time.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where your cloak does not work you will be very happy to be able to warp away before enemies can target you, which a 3s align time helps a lot with, besides against awake and dedicated gate campers in which case you want a 2s align time.
4s is slow and significantly easier to catch.
In fact a good decloaker could even catch your cloaked ship if it aligns too slow, so every second spent increases danger.
And once you are caught a damage control is not going to save you, nor is a warp core stabilizer doing much in those cases.
Sure, your choice of low slots on a BR is viable too and I wouldn’t call it bad, but it’s definitely not better than 3x inertial stabs.

Pro tip.
Esp those PI haulers they can’t resist finagling with their planetary set ups and those windows inhibit there views just so some pi guy can say they can’t do that until they’ve had their coffee or something.
A quick snack really
As a PI hauler pilot I recommend to export goods remotely from tether or while in warp.
Then at the Skyhook or POCO you immediateoy align out to the next planet, grab your stuff and give the warp command.
You spend a couple of seconds vulnerable at most, not even enough for a non-bomber ship to start locking you after decloaking.

Don’t be telling people the expert gate kept secret loop holes through it, think of the shareholders Gerard what about them who’s thinking about them

@ThingsIdo I never saw that before, but it should take priority over a new HUD.
@John_Rochard for the alphas, thank you. What happened to the girl you were seeing two weeks ago before my trip into the hospital?
@Gerard_Amatin she means to say, Don’t be telling the developers the expert gate secret loop holes, they will patch them or call them banned exploits features.
Have fun!

Let’s not use such foul language like bug or exploit, in these instances verbiage matters.

All these pages over some criticism of the new HUD
Just love how wanna be road men, gangsters and proper naughty boys jumping all over someone’s fit and all, Especially when the topic has nothing to do with fits and what.
