Development
With the Maelstrom, versatility is the name of the game. Its defensive capabilities make it ideally suited for small raid groups or solo work, while its 8 turret hardpoints present opportunities for untold carnage on the fleet battlefield.

Summary

The Maelstrom is the usual choice for minmatar pilots running Level 4 missions, which it does quite well with its bonus to shield boosting. PvE Maelstroms usually fit an X-large shield booster for a powerful pulsed shield tank, and artillery for long-range DPS -- though against the Angel Cartel, whose battleships like to engage at close range, some pilots like to fit large autocannons instead.

In PvP the Maelstrom is the backbone of the "alpha fleet" - fleets designed to one-shot ships to negate the power of logistics.

NOTES
  • Cap skills (the first 3 recommended skills) are effectively mandatory. Booster must be 'pulsed' (used briefly when needed).
  • When fighting Angels it is highly recommended to swap the guns for 800mm ACs to better manage their close-range combat.
  • T2 guns (Arties or ACs) will fit with a 1%-3% CPU implant or by using at least one Faction Gyro.
  • Variants: Replace the Cap Recharger with a Cap Booster, a SeBo, or a 3rd Hardner. Drop the DC2 for another Gyro.
  • Other rigs to consider are the Large Core Defence Capacitor Safeguard and the Large Semiconductor Memory Cell.
  • As always, hardners, ammo and drones should be selected to match the rats' damage and weaknesses.

NOTES
RECOMMENDED SKILLS
  • Minmatar Battleship III
  • Large Projectile Turret III
NOTES
  • This is fit for Angel Cartel, replace the ammo, explosive deflection field and/or one adaptive as required
  • Only needs fitting skills at level 4, and cap skills are less important with the ASB
  • Tight on CPU, the Meta 4 Fourier Transform Tracking Program can be replaced with another Tracking Enhancer II if your fitting skills allow
  • The Anciliary Shield Booster provides a ~15% restoration of shields each cycle with no cap use, but requires cap booster 400 charges, thankfully very cheap!
  • EC-300 drones can be used to break a targets lock on you, for example to release a warp scram so you can escape
  • The rigs are the same as the uni incursion fits, allowing you to re-fit for incursions easily in future
