Am I missing something? Isn't the DPS in the fitting window just ALL weapons firing at once (including drones), so you don't get 587dps from your missiles, that's including your drones. (if you mouse over the 587 dps it'll show you missiles and drone damage, the parenthesis number is including reload time of guns). But I might be missing something. *edit* The long recharge time on Rapids is because without it they were massively OP in pvp. It used to be 40sec reload time.. :P

Your theory on who to hit first in the 3rd wave seems right to me. Passive shield tank is all about stsying above the peak recharge %, ~33% of shield capacity. So you want to pick off the targets you can kill the fastest that contribute significantly to the overall incoming dps. Great video, great fit, great fun!

An important nuance here : telling that we don't care running out of capacitor because the fit doesn't have active module is true in theory. But in C3, you can be hunt down by other pvp players. It is always a good idea to have enough capacitor to warp off. So, even with a 100 % passive fit, NEVER run out of capacitor !

Maybe if you took a mobile depot, you were massively over tanked for the 1st 2 waves. Use 3 DDAs, if they fit in the lows, and maybe 3 shield relays in the lows for beginning of last wave. I used to do gated L5s in a Rattlesnake and refit from rechargers to DDA/BCU when needed.

Not always strictly true. As an example, imagine that my tank can't handle 2 cruisers and a battleship, it's tempting to go for the battleship first, since it's doing most DPS. But if taking out a single cruiser can reduce the damage to the point that my tank can handle it, the cruiser dies faster. Ergo, the cruiser is the better option.

I might get yelled at because/if my understanding of mechanics is years out of date, but I generally go with Gallente drones for j-space PVE simply because of sheer DPS. Sleepers as far as I know are still omni-damage and omni-defense: meaning a single weak resist on your ship will cost you, but it also doesn't matter what type of damage you use against them (sans any bonuses for your specific ship). I know tracking and other things can vary, but if you're using medium drones for anything bigger than a frigate, I don't *think* it makes enough of a difference to offset DPS gains. Just with the above fit in question, here are my apples-to-apples DPS outputs for 2 medium drones (maxed drone skills, level 4 drone specializations; I don't think there are any other drone skills where I could have maxed out Gallente & somehow neglected others): 45O dps Hammerhead II 422 dps Vespa II 395 dps Infiltrator II 365 dps Valkyrie II

@captainbenzie

8 ай бұрын

You're correct that it doesn't matter what damage you fire at them because of Omni resists, but Sleepers have NEVER been Omni damage. They have turrets that do EM/Thermal, and missiles that do Explosive/Kinetic. But those weapons have different application rules, and different ships use them in different balances. As such, your ship may be more susceptible to, say the turrets than the missiles, or there may be more of the missiles than the turrets. Subtle, perhaps, but makes a huge difference if you know what to set up for. Also, whilst Gallente drones have highest DPS, they're also the slowest moving and have quite poor tracking which means they can struggle to apply against certain targets.
