Regarding pest scan resolution, yeah the biggest reason I'm not easily out dpsing all our drakes on targets is because by the time I've gotten lock it's in half armor already. Pest life.  | ||

Start shooting something else then the primary!  or demand that all drakes must fit a remote sensor booster. | ||

With 3 PDU, you can downsize 1 cap booster to a medium, then go 4 heavy neuts and 2 mediums. You get more than enough cap time with everything running. (3:31, more than a drake with invulns, mwd and point on) | ||

Edit nvm just noticed you were talking about tfi. I was also looking at this and decided there was no real point to the ship. Money isn't too much of a problem for most of us. The problem is that either your fleet isn't the 'most amazing' of fleets and you're better off in a cheaper pest, or you're in a nice pimp fleet and you should be in a machariel. | ||

Also drop the 4th nano for something else, probably a 3rd PDU because you really get nothing from it. (The PDU isnt for fitting - its for tank and cap.) With 3 PDU, you can downsize 1 cap booster to a medium, then go 4 heavy neuts and 2 mediums. You get more than enough cap time with everything running. (3:31, more than a drake with invulns, mwd and point on) The PDUs actually are necessary for fitting as well. As far as the invuln vs disruptor, in the size gangs we fly, I feel that every ship really needs a point, and the invuln doesn't really add that much tank. Stacking penalties on the nanos aren't ideal, but you do gain an additional .3s align time with mwd on from the 4th nano still, and a little bit of extra speed. Other options for the lows are pretty slim - eccm mods, perhaps? I preferred the extra agility. As far as adding the extra PDU and changing the neut config to 4x heavy/2x medium, I'm not sure I like that at all. The 3 heavy neuts can already alpha the cap of any battlecruiser, t2 cruiser, etc, as far as I know, and the mediums are great for keep multiple targets completely capped out. As far as using non navy cap boosters, that will work perfectly fine in 95% of situations. It's only when you are being heavily neuted or if we are on extremely long roam, that you will wish you'd brought navy boosters. Suggestions thus far taken into account, and I respectfully decline to make any changes. It's coming. | ||

If I wanted to provide high damage at range in a nano fleet, I would fly a tempest or a machariel. Although the damage can potentially be quite nice, make no mistake, this bad boy is all about the neuts. The PDU are necessary for fitting requirements as the fit stands right now, and like you said, there aren't very many other good options for those low slots (additional nanos do not have any effect on your align times due to stacking penalties.) As far as you being worried that it would scare targets off, as far as I'm concerned, it is actually quite the opposite. As someone who FCs for us occasionally, and therefore has to make quick decisions about the composition and engagability of enemy fleets, I must admit that prior to last night - when I discovered the all-mighty nano-dominix - I would consider a domi in a gang of drakes to be nothing but a liability. To protect your standardly fit dominix, your whole gang has to slow down to snail like speeds - not a good thing for nano bcs to be doing. It's like seeing a scimitar with a gang of armor HACs - in my analysis, I wouldn't expect it to contribute to the fight meaningfully, and it will provide us with an easy kill. Still taking suggestions as to how to improve my beautiful new brainchild. | ||

Medium neut is like 10 km, and its not bonused by interdiction maneuvers :/ Sure you can use it to nuke fast tackle, but that doesn't seem to be a huge issue anyways. You could use it to fuck over isolated people, but nanodrakes already do a good job of this. You don't want to be brawling with neuts, because even a brain-dead FC will switch target to you if you're the only one in tackle range. I would think 2 heavy neuts + 4 425mm ACs would suffice, and you free up a LOT of PG that way to do other fun things (though what I have no idea, lolgyros maybe? ECCM is also a good choice though it seems that midslot ECCM is far more slot-efficient). That I guess is part of the issue -- you get plenty of lowslots to work with by using BS but if not for damage mods, what do you use them for? | ||
