Edited by: Akuma Tsukai on 24/09/2008 17:24:04take cover as ure under fire  Well for starters(all IMHO): dump DC for second EANM, with ur buffer structure resists are secondary. I suppose it some kind of gang fit, if so - dump repper and point as well, switch to DC and mwd. Conflag isnt THAT bad but ure so limitd on distance. (M)andatory module needed. Try to squise heavy neut there, always handy. As for rigs this thing just screams trimarks to me. P.S. Lol i missed tech 1 heavies :) use T2 meds if u cant use T2 heavies. Man even ur brick will outrun them with MWD  |

Edited by: Cmndr Griff on 24/09/2008 18:28:35Make sure to get Ogre/Bezerker IIs as soon as possible, and also consider using Amarr Navy Multispec instead of conflag. It isn't much less dps and your capacitor will thank you. Also because of Scorch an MWD isn't always necessary but it depends on the situation. Worth checking out this video for inspiration. |

I was going to ask how you people can stand triple plated+trimak setups, but then I remembered that the Geddon doesn't actually have to move to deal wtfpwn damage.

Call me old fashion but I always see a need for a mwd how else do u get back to gates or get away from other ships. Amarr are great because we can dictate range with our guns which requires an mwd. |

RAR is offline as a heatsink. If you're in a RR BS gang, switch your EANMII for another Adaptive Nano Plating II and then online the RAR.
110k EHP, 1172 DPS, 998DPS With Scorch. If you can't use megapulse II's yet for scorch, then use best named megapulses andn your 8th highslot needs to be a Heavy Neut. You'll also have the spare cpu to upgrade both your Adaptive Nano Plates to EANM IIs.
For the record, Geddon has the lowest Sensor Strength of any Battleship, while also having only 3 mids, of which 1 must a Cap Injector and another pretty much needs to be a MWD (though you can get away with not fitting one, until it gets you killed). Every single poster in this thread has lost the right to complain about falcons for 1 week, hello2u 81% chance to be jammed. |

I don't normally do that in EFT (since it makes it a pita to change all ammo on all guns at once), but the OP posted a triple 1600 plate, LARII fit, so I figured I'd do it like that for his benefit. |

It's because it makes select all -> change ammo a pain. As for the ship: 1) Fit a MWD. The "M" stands for "Mandatory". Now laugh at all those stupid Megathron/Tempest/etc pilots as you MWD away from them and rip them apart without taking a shot in reply. 2) Fit locus rigs. Locus rigs are your friend. 90% of the time, they should be the first thing you add once you fit your MWD and pulse lasers. You should have at least two of them, if not three. |

Do people fit LAR with 3x 1600's so they dont have to pay money to repair it?
Id probably use HS instead of LAR and go all passive/gank |

Hmm, I disagree. Not only are they tough to fit, but there's generally not much combat beyond 45km. Because the damage drop from AN MF to Scorch is rather minimal, it seems pretty pointless. Sure you might gain a few KM on your MF, but not enough. Your uber damage at every range makes you pretty much insta-primary anyway, at which point you should attempt to last as long as possible. |

Locus rigs do not belong on a geddon, sry.
Apoc obviously. Abaddon, sure, can see the benefit. Geddon? fail.
If you would not switch your 1600 plates for Tracking Enhancer IIs on a pulse geddon, then you shouldn't switch trimarks for locus, for precisely the same reason. (hint: has something to do with the other in which battleships get called primary)

I tend to agree that Loctus rigs dont' belong on a geddon or abaddon for that matter. Sure u have great range but scourch is arguable the best t2 ammo for a reason. Also with loctus rigs u will die to the first bs that lands on u in web range hands down. |

The reason you fit locus rigs on the Armageddon is because the Armageddon's role is "get as much damage as possible on the target, ASAP". It's a pure gank ship, and the locus rigs let you project your blasterthron-level dps out to absurd ranges.
If you want tank, the Abbadon is the ship you are looking for. Put your trimarks to much better use there. |

Am I missing something? I'm pretty sure they don't make the laser beams reach the target faster. |

Yes. You're missing that you no longer have to MWD to get into the right range to apply your full DPS. If you're camping the gate at 40km and they appear 25km on the other side, you're 65km out (and thus, IIRC, 45+10+10 out and doing 0 DPS). If you had fit locus rigs, you'd be doing (IIRC) 63km optimal and thus immediatly dropping 1000+ DPS on them. I would fit Trimarks on a Geddon. -Liang |

you can tank and do good damage, maybe you fly to 0.0 system, but me, low secure, and my fit work pretty nice. |

Whats the point of camping 40k out? U can't scram much from that range and any bs is able to warp before u kill them I can see doint that to kill haulers or something but thats about it. edit: minmatar gates? |

I sincerely doubt that you're camping a gate solo in a battleship. Let's assume that you're not (since it borders upon stupid). Thus, there's someone on the gate to make sure that they don't run away from you. Then the point of camping 40 out is that you: 1) are not in a warp bubble [and I will call you silly for not fitting a MWD......] 2) Can be aligned and out of anyone's warp disruptor reach if the need arises 3) Are out of anyone else's immediate damage range (such as a Thron, Phoon, or Raven) Need I really go on? -Liang Ed: Yes, Minnie gates are another thing... I pirate in Metro lowsec and frequently jump with someone and see them appear between 30 and 60km away. |

failtroll is fail. The geddon's role is to deal damage, period. Instapopping to muninn's and sh*t hinders it's ability to deal damage. You do not want to fit locus rigs on a geddon, if you need a gate camp ship or whatever the hell it is you're doing with your locus rigged geddons then I'd suggest the Pulse Apoc fit with nano's and istabs and a warp core stab or whatever so you can warp out at the first sign of danger. The geddon is the most popular RR BS for a reason, not only because it can deal high amounts of DPS, but also project that damage effectively at both close and mid ranges (20-50km), all while fitting a RAR and enough of an armor buffer to survive long enough to start receiving RR assistance from it's teammates. It is because it is so effective in this role, that it is virtually guranteed to be top priority for being called primary, atleast the first ship after scorps/falcons/whatnot. For some reason you believe it's worth sacrificing your buffer as long as you can get a single volley off before you melt. I will go on record to say that is by far, the most ret*rded thing anyone has ever said on these forums, ever, ever, ever. Please never post again. |

I understand but I always fit an mwd I mean my post is a few up u can see and I believe the person suggesting loctus rigs also says mwd is mandatory. I think mostly low sec lately as thats where I get my pvp and being 40k off a gate limits my options if things go wrong. But if u live in 0.0 and often do bubble camps I can see the need for a geddon with locuts rigs I guess but I still think there are better options availiable for rigs.

I don't disagree with you... I was just providing a rationale as to why you might want more range on your Geddon. But consider, for a moment, that it's not at all uncommon to hear suggestions that Minnie pilots fit Ambit rigs to their BS's. ;-) -Liang |

Yes, overheating damages adjacent modules... and thus you can use a "heat sink"/buffer to protect your modules from each other. It's better to have 4 / heatsink / 3 than 7 / heatsink because they'll start being destroyed -----> across the top instead of --> <-- across the top a bit later. Overheating is, btw, TOTALLY FTW. -Liang |
