I haven't seen any recent posts about this ship. I was wondering how people fit a Taranis these days. What i'm looking for is a setup capable of taking larger ships solo.
One of the few fittings I was considering was a dual prop setup. Also, what do you think about active tanking? A DC is obviously absolutely necessary for this ship.
Anyone have fits or opinions about this ship they would like to share?

This is the tried and true dual-prop Taranis fit. Tbh there aren't many other ways to fit it well... *cough*electronsarefail*cough* |

c'mon alara, ions at the very least . if you're worried about tank, you can always fit a EANM or an ANP.
I fly Minmatar, that fit was literally a shot in the dark... Oh well at least my complete lack of knowledge on Hybrids galvinized everyone against me enough to post the good fits out of spite. \o/ For failure, and yes I feel bad  |

That burst II ranis fit is pretty optimal I agree. On the other hand that rig tacks on quite a bit of cost to the ship. A cheapo fit has 11 less dps and p sure comes in under 20 misk easily. Perfect fitting skills get you a T2 ab as well.

I'm more partial to the mwd-scram-web one.
dual prop taranis is good, but it's better for dueling.
classic setup works better in fleets for space superiority. |

Well, I am clueless. Maybe someone could provide some arguments what's wrong with electrons? Range? Clipsize? An electron Taranis loses exactly 28 DPS compared to a neutron Taranis (same fitting else). By using the All lvl 5 toon in EFT...so in reality not even said 28 DPS. Is it really that much? 232 vs 260 DPS? With electrons I'd have better tracking + ~300m/s more speed or 200m/s more speed + better agility (speed/agility rig instead of the ACR). With 5% more grid even a nos is possible, don't know if an implant could help here. Anyone? |

Because with the terrible range your tracking advantage is largely moot, you can fit a nos with an ion fit as well with semi decent skills. But largely because neutrons have better range and higher dps which when fighting someone in a rifter(for example) could be very handy if he tries to kite you |

If you are in a gang roaming 0.0 you can offline a SRAR in the spare high to rep ships and drones if needed. A rare occurrence but I've used it a few times myself. Ignore tards who think you put it there as a heat sink.

Is just using the MWD still viable or is an AB a must these days? I stopped playing about a year ago as the new scramblers were taking stride. |

depends. dual prop setups work mostly in dueling situations, while classic mwd/scram/web combo is more usefull in space superiority situations (gangs) |

You can also roll with the dualprop setup posted by Lady Spank and others but with a meta 4 nos and the blasters downgraded to ions if you're worried about getting neuted when engaging bigger ships. |
