Blitzing: Difference between revisions

This video has me doing this in a Machariel, which is a rather expensive ship for many people. However, you do not NEED an expensive ship to do this. The Drake is one of the best blitzing ships out there and only costs about 50-60m fully fit before insurance. Here is an excellent drake fit:

~~Highs:~~

[Drake, Blitzing]

~~7x Heavy Missile Launcher II~~

~~Mids:~~

Ballistic Control Unit II

~~2x Large Shield Extender~~ II

Ballistic Control Unit II

~~1x Y-T8 Overcharged Hydrocarbon I Microwarpdrive~~

Shield Power Relay II

~~2x Invulnerability Field~~ II

Shield Power Relay II

~~1x Specific Active Hardener (Photon Scattering Field II, Heat Dissipation Field II, Ballistic Deflection Field II, Explosion Dampening Field~~ II ~~- depending on the mission)~~

~~Lows:~~

Large Shield Extender II

~~2x Ballistic Control Unit~~ II

Large Shield Extender II

~~2x Shield Power Relay~~ II

Y-T8 Overcharged Hydrocarbon I Microwarpdrive

Invulnerability Field II

''Specific Active Hardener (depending on the mission)''

~~Rigs:~~

Heavy Missile Launcher II

~~3x Medium Core Defence Field Purger I~~

Heavy Missile Launcher II

~~Drones:~~

Medium Core Defence Field Purger I

~~5x Warrior~~ II

Medium Core Defence Field Purger I

Hobgoblin II x5

Many people will say the Drake is not a good level 4 ship and it does not have the necessary DPS. This is irrelevent if you fly the way I do in this video. The strength of the drake comes from its high mobility. In this mission for example, you would pull off a similar maneuver to the one I did in your drake and then burn further away, thus reducing all the damage from the rest of the rats while you pick off the targets from range.
