Build Description
Go for at least 3 pips on weapons. Deploy a fighter, then use beams to take out shields and multicannons to finish the job.
Pros and Cons
This is a combat ship designed to melt absolutely anything. It is an overkill for any conflict zones, extraction sites and bounty hunting missions – shield rarely goes down below 50%. It can also do wing assasination missions and high level pirate activity without loosing its shields.
Large fighter hangar combined with thermal vent beam lasers provide not only overwhelming firepower, but also a great cover in dangerous situations. If you use your ship properly, you will be almost invisible for most of the battle.
Even though this ship has good hull protection, you should avoid fighting when your shield is down. Gankers and some NPCs like using missles and torpedoes, which can wreck modules quite a bit. You should be able to survive, but not without any troubles.
Materials Required
The following numbers assume the following rolls required to progress:
Grade 1 rolls - 2
Grade 2 rolls - 4
Grade 3 rolls - 5
Grade 4 rolls - 7
Grade 5 rolls - 10
This can vary greatly since rolls are randomized events, which means these are at best estimates to target.
