Rifter: Difference between revisions

m Removed some spaces between the fittings to make them stack properly.
m Changed the text to make it more newbro accessible, and added some information on AB vs MWD.

For Tackling in a Rifter, spiraling is key. The ship is agile and fast enough that a pilot can use a standard spiral with a MWD. The only concern will be on final approach (30 km or so) to pulse the MWD so that the increased signature radius doesn't come in to play as much. If the ship is AB fit, the pilot may consider tightening the Spiral slightly, risking a little more (but still tankable) damage in order to decrease closing time.
For [[Tackling 101 Guide|tackling]] in a Rifter, spiralling is key. The ship is agile and fast enough that you can use a standard spiral with a [[MicroWarp Drive]] (MWD). Your only concern will be on final approach (30 km or so) to pulse the MWD so that the increased signature radius doesn't come in to play as much, as the MWD's signature bloom only applies while the MWD is activated. If the ship is [[Afterburner]] (AB) fit, the pilot may consider tightening the spiral slightly. Afterburners [[Afterburner Details|do not have a signature radius penalty]], so you can risking a little more (but still tankable) damage in order to decrease closing time.
 
Both of these techniques are elaborated in the '' [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Tackling_101_Guide EVE uni guide to tackling]
