Relevant skills:
engie/elec/mech/hull 5, weapon upgrades 5, adv. weapon upgrades 4, gal BS 4, drone interfacing 4, heavy drones 4, all support gun skills at 5 (rapid fire 5, sharpshooter 5 etc.) large blaster spec 4, all nav skills at 4 or 5 etc.
Basically besides drone interfacing at 5, T2 heavy drones and BS 5, I have pretty much maxed skills for a blaster pilot.
Setups: (every mod is T2 or best named, assume best of everything)
Megathron-
- 7x Ions, standard mids (mwd/web/scram/heavy injector), 2x large accom reps, EANM, DC, 3x Magstab IIs.
- Results: cap death before able to kill opponent. Ships fought: Abaddon, Raven, Maelstrom, Typhoon, Rokh, Dominix.
- 7x Neutrons, standard mids w/ medium injector, large accom rep, 1600 plate, DC, EANM, 3x Magstab IIs.
- Results: dead before cap death. Ships fought: Abaddon, Rokh, Raven, Maelstrom, Tempest.
- 7x Electrons, heavy diminishing nos, standard mids, 2x T2 large reps, kin/therm/exp hardeners, DC, EANM.
- Results: Unable to break enemy tank, ran out of cap boosters, then died. Ships fought: Rokh, Raven, Dominix, Maelstrom, Tempest, Typhoon.
Hyperion-
- 8x Ions, standard mids (mwd/web/scram/eccm/heavy injector), T2 large armor rep, DC, EANM, 3x magstabs.
- Varient: replaced DC with 1600 plate. Same results.
- Results: died with about 40% cap. Ships fought: Abaddon, Rokh, Maelstrom, Raven, Dominix, Tempest.
- 8x Electrons, standard mids, 2x T2 large reps, kin/therm/exp hardeners, DC.
- Results: unable to break enemy tank, ran out of cap charges, then died. Ships fought: Maelstrom, Rokh, Raven, Typhoon, Abaddon.
- 8x Neutrons, standard mids w/ medium injector (no grid to fit heavy), 1600 plate, EANM, DC, 3x magstabs.
- Results: varied- either died with about half cap, or went cap dead, then died. Ships fought: Dominix, Raven, Abaddon, Maelstrom.
If someone has some better setups for the Hyperion (that still uses blasters) I'd like to see them. The main problem is that you can't active tank long enough to kill someone, and you don't do enough DPS to kill a single BS before they're through your passive tank. The longer you stay in a fight the worse it gets.
I've tried to design setups to kill targets before you run out of cap, but the tanks in Revelations are just too good and the ammo has been nerfed too much to be able to break a T2 tank before you're either dead or out of cap.
One additional note: blasterships are worthless for killing mission runners in deadspace. MWDs don't work there.
