Since nobody else seems to have mentioned it: 0:15 that's the weight of the Soviet artillery piece used to fire their 280mm shell, not the weight of the munition. The shell "only" weighed 246kg. A 650mm shell would probably weigh about 10 times that (because if you double the diameter you octuple the volume).

"In rust we trust" hehe on a more serious note though, I would recommend messing around with abyssal modifications for the shield extenders (and gyros/afterburner too, if you want to min/max); you can add a good chunk of hp, dmg and speed that way for reasonably cheap. One high slot that could maybe work might be a drone upgrade (I think there's one that extends the max range, but it's been awhile since I used them). I used to really dig the hurricane but then spent too long in a tengu, and now switched to a legion lol. Too many fun ships to fly imho.

I wanted to fly a hurricane but was too torn between the autocannons or the artillery and ended up flying a scorpion for a while before dropping back down to a Drake/Moa and it’s been a fun change of pace to do L3 missions in between doing T0 abyss with my polarized kestrel. I’m looking to upgrade to a drake navy issue soon but it’s way too overkill for what I do.

PvP is always fairly advanced because you're going up against players who know their ships well. I strongly suggest getting a feel for your ships capabilities in PvE, then trying PvP after that. That's basically why I've not covered PvP yet, as I feel there's basics that need covering first.

It is good idea to start factional warfare. As soon as you join that way of being in Eve as soon you find a social part of that game.

Try your best. Don't listen to hisec crabs.

Salvager in the middle slot for heat sink no? Does heat wrap? My understanding is no. Also, why not a meta 4 shield extender instead of a "1"? Too expensive maybe, or does it just lower the fit req. and not the shield amount, idk. Think it's an F-S9 for the medium at least

I basically fit using what I had lying around or was very cheap nearby. Yeah, a Large Regolith isn't much more but this is what I had. Same with the Multispectrum. As for the Salvager going in the middle for overheating, this is only for L3s. I've never had to overheat anything and doing so may speed things up but also reduces profit due to repairs/nanite paste costs.

Hey man, new player here, questions for you, 1 How often do you run into issues with vessels at a close range orbiting you etc, could I counteract this by having 2 auto cannons and 4 arty turrets? and what is that shield module you have there at the top that's glowing orange?
@captainbenzie
Жыл бұрын
Ahoy there! Honestly, if you're splitting your weapons like that, you're making a ship that doesn't excel at anything, and suffers because of it. A better approach is to understand the ship and your opposition. You have long range weaponry. The advantage is the range and the amount of damage it does per hit. The downside is tracking. But the further away something is, the slower it's traversal velocity. Imagine standing at a roadside looking out across a road, beyond which is a field, beyond which is another road. If two cars drive along those roads at the same speed, the closest one shoots by really quickly. The one in the distance seems to move much slower. As such, you use target priority. Shoot the frigates first before they get too close. If they do get close, your drones will finish them off, it just takes a while and slows down your clear time. The orange shield module is a "Multispectrum Shield Hardener". When activated, it uses a small amount of capacitor to increase all of your shield resistances, reducing the damage that you take.

The Hurricane is the best BC in Eve. But to be fair lets look at the other contenders. Is it Caldari? The Drake? FFS NO! Absolutely not. Ferox? No that ones just the coolest not best. Is it Gallente? No, just no, I'm not going to even bother. Amarr? The Prohecy is cool but its a drone boat so it can't be, and the Omen is a good candidate for worst BC. None of the mini battleships count, (i still think of them as the T3 battlecruisers) as they are, well, mini battleships. (Though i will admit that the T3s have the most in common with irl BC theory)
