ya, one of the ship designs (parts and such included) i posted a few pages ago in this thread has a ship that did about 2k speed or so.

A good example would be..

The Gallente Ares (Interceptor) witih it's stock 450 m/sec velocity.. combine that with a Microwarpdrive II.. which adds a 550% to your speed.. which would equal out to 2475 m/sec lol. That's just one example, probably ships out there that beat that even.

get a MWD which boosts it 500%, then with skills you can boost it another 50% at least.

With good navigation skills you can get those puppies to fly.

I've read people on the forums talking about getting their interceptors up to around 4000 m/s

Just bought one of these for my Raven

I dare some drones to get within 5000 of me

Requiem · 03-21-2007, 09:40 AM

I'm probably going to be outfitting my cruiser today.. hmm how about this gun?

Modal Ion Particle Accelerator I

My Powergrid is only at 820 (without engineering atm) and CPU of 300 tf.

x5 Modal Ion's = 750 power, this doen't leave much left for me for other things.

Kruegerstang · 03-21-2007, 09:44 AM

Well some of the fittings only require 1mw of powergrid so those won't be a problem. Guns always use a lot of power.

That gun looks pretty cool though. Do some nice damage on some rats

Requiem · 03-21-2007, 09:47 AM

Ya, it should do alright I would imagine. Since it's a blaster it doesn't have much range though, only bad thing about it. I did have up a Gauss Gun that had like.. 18-28km range or something like that, I don't remember off hand but it was pretty good distance. For NPC missions, you think I should just go for close quarter weapons? I'll probably end up sticking a salvager on here at some point.

Kruegerstang · 03-21-2007, 10:10 AM

For salvaging you have to be within 5000 meters anyway, short range is fine. I wouldn't want to kill anything outside of 20k range anyway. 20k is the max for a tractor beam. As long as you can hit the stuff orbiting you around 9k you should be fine....of course if you're gallente you have drones which can attack up to 30k (at least for me they do)

Requiem · 03-21-2007, 10:14 AM

Should I get..

3 more powerful weapons

1 tractor beam

1 salvager

I've never installed a tractor beam, does it take up a hi slot?

Kruegerstang · 03-21-2007, 10:17 AM

tractor is high slot as well as salvager....you target a wreck, turn on your tractor and it brings the wreck to you very quickly. if it's 20k away it seems to only take about 5-10 seconds before it's on top of you.......I normally get everything in the mission to be within at least 10k before I kill it and that makes salvaging so much quicker.
