Could anyone tell me what they think of this setup for a Hawk...it will be used in small gangs as extra firepower:
HI-
4 x Standard Missile Launcher II
MED-
1 x 1MN Afterburner II
1 x Small Shield Booster II
1 x EM Hardener (passive)
Low-
1 x Ballistic Control II
1 x Power Diagnostic System
Thanks...

Edited by: Nikita Fontaine on 17/05/2007 11:51:24 my first thought is that you are missing a med slot and a hi slot in your setup...
my second thought is, why do people bother with AB on harpy/hawk, ~300m/s extra isnt going to change anything...better to spend it on web/scram/tank/target painter ----------------------------------------------- Great minds think alike but fools seldom differ
Directors are like buttons they hold things together.

Edited by: Marquis Dean on 17/05/2007 11:56:31 A max-gank Hawk has a peak dps of about 60 or something dismal. If you want to add raw firepower, almost any other ship in the game is a better choice i'm afraid. Here's some setups for you to chew on:
Firesupport Harpy: 4 x Light Neutron II w/Void 1 x Rocket Launcher II /w Phalanx Rage
1 x 1mn MWD (named/II/deadspace/whatever) 1 x Web 1 x 7.5km Scram 1 x Cap Recharger II
1 x MagStab II 1 x Nanofiber Internal
You move very fast, you hit very hard, and if you're in a gang no one is going to shoot you because you're in a tiny ship. This setup will have about 150-170 dps I think, depending on your skills.
Anti-Inty Hawk 4 x Standard ML II w/Bloodclaw Precision
1 x 1mn Ab II 1 x Small SB II 2 x Sensor Booster II
1 x BCS (if it fits) 1 x PDU (if it fits, I can't remember)
Essentially creates a 25-30km no fly zone for interceptors. You'll lock them in one second and kill them in two volleys.
Max-gank Hawk 4 x Rocket Launcher II w/Thorn Rage 1 x Small Nos
1 x 1mn Ab II 1 x Small SB II 1 x Photon Scat II 1 x Micro Cp Booster w/100s/150s/whatever
1 x PDU 1 x BCS
A fairly useless setup, does what the gank Harpy does, but much worse.
edit: spelling. ---

The anti-inty setup is certainly interesting...
How does a Caracal fit in similar fashion compare with that Hawk for killing inties though? |

Very poorly.
On the face of it, 5 x Assault Launcher II > 4 x Standard ML II, but in reality it's crippled by three things:
1. You will take upwards of 5 seconds to lock that interceptor, even with sensor boosters.
2. You're a sufficiently big target to get people to notice you.
3. And when they shoot you, you will die so fast it's not even funny.
The Hawk's small size, speed and high sig resolution makes for an ideal ship in this role. A Sniper Harpy/Eagle/Ferox could also perform well but then they are reliant on maintaining range.

I was in a Crow once and I got smeared across a gate by this (the guy was kind enough to share his setup with me afterwards):
4 x 125mm Rail II w/Uranium
1 x Sensor Booster II 1 x Target Painter II 2 x Tracking Computer II
1 x MagStab II 1 x Tracking Enhancer II
Was very effective, every shot hit despite my crazy transversal.
