Megathron: Difference between revisions

From EVE University Wiki
Tactics: removed the current text because at best it was trivial (example: "Listen very carefully to the FC...") but some is even just plain bad advice (example: "If you're MWD equipped, [...] turn auto-repeat off")

==Summary==
==Summary==
The '''Megathron''' is a gun boat, specialising in large hybrid turrets. With its 4 mid slots and 8 lows the megathron is almost exclusively armor tanked. The Megathron is somewhat of a spiritual successor to the [[Brutix]] and [[Thorax]], favoring guns over drones. However, the Mega can fit a very thick tank and has the bandwidth and drone bay to field either a flight of 3 heavy drones or full flights of both light and medium drones to back up its destructive force, making it a powerful option for many different kinds of PvP and PvE action.

Historically the Megathron was a fixture of sniper fleets circa the late 00's and very early 10's.  Although outranged by the Apocalypse and Rokh, it was better in most circumstances due to its unique combination of armor tank, tracking and RoF bonuses, and good drone capacity.
