I'm looking to create the fastest possible ship under certain conditions:
The fastest combination of warp and non warp speeds for use when the autopilot is engaged afk. OR The fastest non warp speed with no regard to warp speed.
This means that modules like afterburners are not allowed, because they cannot be engaged if you are afk. Modules like Overdrives and Nanofiber are however applicable when afk as they are constant.
Size/Class of the ship is not restricted.
I prefer Caldari designs personally but I will not restrict the design to only one race, as I am looking for the best possible design in the game.

Edited by: Rylet VanDorn on 31/05/2007 18:29:16 Hmm... either you're looking to try and get to the Eve gate, or you're looking to lock down enemy ratting systems while AFK after cloak probing is implemented.
Whatever the case, you want a Claw (minmatar interceptor).
2 T2 nanofibers 2 T2 overdrives 1 Gistii A-Type 1mn Microwarp Drive 2 T2 Polycarbon Engine housing mods
Add a T2 Small Cap Battery for increased capacitor/warp range.
MWD will run infinitely, so being AFK is not a concern.
With Acceleration control 5 and Navigation 5, it will move at 13929 m/s with MWD active.
Without MWD it moves at 926 m/s
Non-MWD speed can be bumped up to 1279 m/s by replacing the nanos with more overdrives, and replacing the polycarbon rigs with Aux Thrusters... so that's basically what you want to do if on autopilot through empire.

Note: that's without gang or implant bonuses. I don't know what the numbers on those are but you can probably bump it up over 20km/s with those.

The op asked for passive speed..
But yeah for fast you will prolly want an interceptor (although the warp speed isn't too big on those) or maybe a fast faction frigate..
Claw would still be the best I reckon, although a crow might be easier for you.
Same set up as proposed in the first reply, but for tru afk-ing you might wanna use double cap battery to make sure you can warp even the 100+AU warps and switch the nanofibres for a third overdrive and an iStab..
All the stuff above does not necessarily reflect my corp, my alliance or even me.. Drone guide.. |

Edited by: Cougem on 31/05/2007 19:19:10 I'm interested to hear why one would do this? Making the most sexual safespots ever or something?
Why would one bother looking for the eve gate? CCP obviously don't want you finding it, so it probably wont even exist in space.
EDIT: Been searching and seems it has been 'implemented', but only as a blue swirly thing you can see from a distance but not approach.

crusader is fastest. fit speed rigs and faction overdrives. and snakes Playing minmatar is "like going down a flight of stairs in a office chair firing an Uzi". |

If isk really is no object (and you have good contacts), I recommend a Silver Magnate. 525m/s base speed, 4 low slots and 3 rig slots.
By the way, doesn't the OP have a pile of suitable coins? ------ Spreadsheets: Top speed calculation - Halo Implant tanking |

If it's speed without an mwd (for autopilot) wouldn't a claw be faster? The only reason a crusader outspeeds a claw is because it has less mass which means higher boost from the mwd. ---------------------------------------- A Guide to Scan Probing in Revelations |

ares:
highs: LOL med: 2 x small cap battery II low: 4 OD II rig: 2 x warp speed
19.4 AU/s in warp, should break 1k/s passive speed

Edited by: Siloh on 01/06/2007 06:52:30 I'd use a crusader, it has 4 lowslots and has high speed plus low mass. Not that the low mass really matters since you're not using AB/MWD, but still.
Also, I don't think he's looking for any EVE gates or is making fancy safe spots, he just wants a pimp shuttle for AFK traveling probably
EDIT Yup sorry didn't see Hoshi's post. Claw might be better since it has higher base speed, same amount of slots, and its higher mass doesn't matter because we're not using mwd (although it'll prolly accelerate a bit slower)

Edited by: Helevorn Feanaro on 01/06/2007 16:00:57 If you want to go really, really fast while afk, do this:
1. Pick any of the above setups. 2. Put in the best AB you can find, in your first mid slot. 3. Put a weight on your F2 key (Or whatever key activates the AB) 4. Hit the autopilot 5. Say wheeeeeeeee

I don't see why you can't have a mwd active when you're afk, just turn it on before you go afk...
This sustains forever on my Crow:
1 x 1mn MWD II 1 x Eutectic Cap Recharger 2 x Beta CPR
And my Claw:
1 x Catalysed MWD 2 x Beta CPR
with whatever speed mods/rigs you want to add around them.
