EternalRMG KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 595	Posted - 2013.11.19 20:08:00 - [1] - Quote Vulpes Dolosus wrote: Things also to consider (note: this info. may not be accurate to current or future builds): -Pythons get passive reps w/o a module, meaning they don't have to waste a slot on repairers (a 4 sec delay at 224/sec, that's incredible). -Active shield resists are incredible now; stacking 2 and staggering them give 1min of 40% resist with a 15sec cool down in between. -Shield boosters now give and instantaneous 900 shield hp w/ a 30sec cool down (max skills) (coupled with a shield resist, that's an hp boost of 1260hp) I've yet to look into fitting an Incubus on the fitting tool, so I'll look at that soon enough. All I know is that, as a Python pilot, I'm very excited for the new build. Though, I would like to see what Amarr and Minmatar dropships will look like. Only time will tell. After Some Math : Using a Complex Light Armor Repper, Complex 60mm Armor Plates, and a complex armor hardener + a Complex afterburner and a Proto Turret The Incubus can reach 3046 HP without the hardener and 4264 WITH the hardener "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

Nope because im Talking about the total HP but i forgot to add the Shields :D SO AFter the math after the math the Incubus Max HP with that fit and with Hardener on is 5214, what i find a PRETTY DECENT NUMBER. The incubus wont be the hit n run vehicle it is now, or that the python will eventually be, but it will last longer on focused battles "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot
EternalRMG KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 595	Posted - 2013.11.19 20:21:00 - [3] - Quote ARE YOU KIDDING MEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHIELD HARDENERS REDUCE DAMAGE TO 40% and Armor Hardener only to 60% (If i understood it right) PLEASE tell me its the other way arround, because if its not, ITS BS "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

Or Railgun Platforms, which will OBLITERATE Vehicles "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot
EternalRMG KNIGHTZ OF THE ROUND 595	Posted - 2013.11.19 20:31:00 - [5] - Quote The Python is a joke Right Now It can Fit 2 Complex Shield Hardeners and a Complex light shield extender AND a Proto Missile Turret WITHOUT usign the low slot and it has at least 50 pg and 50 cpu left "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

I guess you havent calculated the Staking penalties. With Penalties Applied your first fit reaches 5k TOTAL HP with both hardeners on, while your second fit just 3800 Total HP You have to multiply Both hardener with eachother (0.4 x 0.4) and then apply that new number to the Ammount of shields you have "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

Tank Killer Incubus FTW Also with the increase on Vehicles Due to this Buff, IT will be hyper effective as a harrasing vehicle, finishing vehicles on CooldDown "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

And rest assured, it won't be fixed in 1.7 Trust me, ive used it and i suck with it, but ive seen many ADS Pilots go 15/0 WITH scattered Ion cannons I HOPE they get better, if they dont, ill have to kill infantry without the ROF Bonus And Also Incubus Can Fit DMG Mods without sacrificing Tank, which will be a deadly combo with small railguns and MIGHT Compensate the lack of ROF from Missile Turrets "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot

The extra plates will be canceled by the Armor Composition Skill 6: Agree 7: Passive Reps? 8: But they dont rep that much shields 9: It has the smell of his enemies tears "Fight Togheter; Win Together" Duster Since: July 2012 Best DropShip Pilot; Soon To be best Jet Fighter Pilot
