Vargur Mission fit Questions/Help

So I bought one because I can. I will be using it for LvL 4 missions. Blitzing sometimes and full clearing and salvaging others as well as to do the various Epic Arcs. I have the skills needed at lvl 5 for everything unless I missed something miner someplace. I am just lacking the last part of marauder 5 which is training now. I have read several threads and watched a few videos looking at fits. I am just trying to make some final decisions now and would like your input and thoughts.

Fit so far

Where I am running to the tough choices is the mid slots and more importantly the rigs as I can move the mids in and out to suit my needs but not the rigs.
MJD seems like not having it would be “wasting” a ship bonus. I have used them a lot and am familiar however, I always use them with a second prop mod for positioning and moving around. Having 2 prop mods on a Vargur seems like I might be sacrificing too much?
Shield Boost Amplifier Some fits have it. Some do not. Any reason not to fit this?
2 Tracking Computer II? or is one enough?
2 Hardeners or one?
Some fits also have a Large Cap Battery in there…

Finally the rigs. It seems that almost every fit I look at is different!
Large Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Large Capacitor Control Circuit II
Large Projectile Burst Aerator II
Large Hyperspatial Velocity Optimizer
Large Projectile Metastasis Adjuster

Would really love some of your experiences and fits.

While golem can spawn cruise missiles without damage reduction as far as it can target vargur can’t as soon as you hit that mjd kiss 60% of you dmg good bye.
You can offset this by some fancy flying or you can use good(read best grade) mwd,while CCP did butcher original vargur speed and agility(was 2nd to machariel) it is still viable with mwd.

I would go burst rig t2 + hyper t2.

I used this before the prices for marauders and deadspace modules skyrocketed. It worked well.

whatever floats your goat.
even a pithum a-type medium is ok.

nope. you want to move fast to kill things fast. 500mn+mjd it is then.

:confused:
You may want to look at the ehp/s gain .
T2 invul gives 100/(100-30) = +42.8% ehp/s
second one gives 100/(100-30*0.87)= +35.3% ehp/s
a SBA gives +36%

so my advice, prioritize the following :

  1. invul
  2. specific hardener
  3. SBA
  4. second invul

If you are a lazy as like me, remove the specific hardener.

IMO your real issue is that you need more cap.
So I would advocate a RF large cap bat.

IMO the fit :

mid

  • gist x-type (x-)LSB
  • MJD+500mn. At least faction 500mn to reduce the effect on cap.
  • RF LCB
  • tanking mod, be it invul+ SBA or dual invul.

low

  • 3*gyro
  • DC
  • tracking enhancer.

high

  • 800mm
  • bastion
  • tractor
  • nos or auto targeting

rig

  • burst aerator II
  • CCC I

Great stuff. I will fiddle with the Fitting trying these out.

I use mine like this:

3x Gyrostabilizer
2x Tracking Enhancer
1x Large Projectile Burst Aerator II
1x Large Projectile Ambit Extension I
1x Tracking Computer II
4x 800mm Repeating Cannon II

This combo should bring out the most applied DPS (of course go faction or higher on the modules if you feel like it). As for the tank you can choose to either go with only 3 slots after fitting MJD + Afterburner or skip the MJD and use 4 med slots if you dont feel comfortable. But a 3 slot tank should be enough for every LVL 4 out there. Your large shield booster + 2 mission specific hardeners should be enough.
