Hey captain, had a talk before on discord) actually I use my SFI for story missions. I can speed run spark of rebellion missions pretty easily with a similar build but have more range and few different modules. It works for long range pvp too:)
Me staring at stabber fleet issue guide: That's a nice one. Me pointing at tornado in the horizon with 5 tracking comp, large strike cannon and accuracy fall off adjustment rigs: But I prefer hitting enemy from outside 250 km deaggress range........
I really like this ship Benzie! I still like the Rupture a little more because it is tanker. I am firmly #teamstrikecannon If you dictate the range, you win the battle :)
what the Good Old Cap is missing is that while yes it does seem to be forest camo painted on but i think its supposed to look like green and browns from a planet although if you close enough to a planet to see those colors your close enough to see its clearly not a big round planet lol!
You should show people how to do trans-matching in a ship like this (with low tracking speed). After you put your webs on the frigates is a perfect time for that. (Or you can just put it in your new 'how turrets work' video you mentioned 😋)
Your motion affects tracking as well. You missed that frig with the sniper build because you were close and MWDing. Also, if you are active tanking, base HP doesn't matter as much as resists and cap efficiency do.
I cannot understand why in Echoes (maybe Benzie could ask devs about it), Vexor crusier got around 2400cap whileMyrmidon battlecrusier only 2700 cap, while in Online, same Vexor have 1450 cap and Myrmidon 2900 (bc got 200% of crusier capacitor). If we take into account that some modules in Online are fully passive and dont eat cap (damage mods), others eat alot less, battlecrusiers in Echoes should have double the cap they currently got. This could make some difference along with some other balancing things they badly need. BC should be halfway between crusiers and battleships while they are just slower variants of crusiers with a bit more hp.
I'm struggling, I am pretty new to the game though, but I'm trying to equip everything same here and well I've got the 5 cannons but as soon as I fit a second tracking I havnt got enough capacitor
Better to use 1 gyrostab 1 computer. It will give a chance to make 2 shots while computer active. It will be equal for 2 separate computer activation. And will increase dps. And I like gyrostab more than computer on broiler build
You need double computer to get that 100km+ effective range hot. Not so much a concern for pve, but a fleet of these makes a scary force in pvp. You can get 2 cycles during a single computer activation even without gyrostab, you just need to activate everything on the same tick which can be a bit hit or miss.
I heard some done skills doesnt work (speed bonuses for example). Someone tested Myrmidon with Ehp bonus and Prophecy with velocity bonus, and both set of drones were moving with exact same speed. Maybe game have some kind of troubles with loading player skills sometimes and assumes player have lvl0 (this could explain why drones sometimes dont want to attack target beyond stock 20km range).
You know how you are doing the series frigate pilot’s manifesto, it would be even cooler to do something like destroyer pilots manifesto or cruiser etc... that would be cool for the future.
Speaking of shields and armor captain i got a question im a shield user but i have my eyes on the gallente ships at tier 8 like the talos it might change but it's what i have on my mind (mainly Pve) i know it's still long way but is it possible to shield tank these ships ? i feel like shields are just overall better
good ship but i still cant manage to use gist C strike cannon on SFI due to high power grid usage LOL , brawler stabber still my fav fitting so far 5 gist C auto cannon , adaptive reactive booster and aura stabilizer on low , 2 nos 1 web enough for story and anomalies ^^
I’ve been using a Stabber FI for a while now. I tend to separate my strike cannons into stacks of 2 & 3. Still find I can alpha strike most PVE frigates and it means you’re not wasting effort, speeding up the ratting/story encounter. What’s your thoughts on that? Split stacks or weapons or full stacks? I’ve found the insane speed of MWD has saved me being ganked numerous time’s, with the long range also making it harder to be locked down.
I like minmatar ships but I am not skilled in cannons. (I am a missiles,railguns and drones guy ) at least there are some minmatar ships who use missiles like the breacher and the bellicose
Nice speed with the micro been using a med smug for thrust about 830 on speed as for guns auto republics with med missile does good get the occasional 1000+ hit but I still need to work out the shield and armor but at 17km I can balance it out and up to 23 can work just slower kill
ahh yea unless you have a cynabal or bc it isnt that easy 3 months ago i was just like you i was a miner and i was not rich at all then my corp advised me too move in to null sec i did a couple deadspaces and inqis anoms and made 500 mill that night with my fleet soooo yea starting out solo is hard if you have a good ship you should have no trouble making isk now i make isk solo i have a cyclone a fairly affordable ship for doing special anoms and i also have a phantasm for stories
@@captainbenzie ah, that blows. Arty jousting is fun. You up transverse when your guns are in cool down and drop it right before they fire. I really wish Matari ships didn't have rate of fire bonuses for this reason. All hail the alpha volley!
@@captainbenzie understandable. But here's something to think about. You have time stamps in your description so they can skip to what they want to learn. And also if they think its to long they can always stop watching after the first build is shown. Now here's an idea for you. If you feel the video is already long but you could showcase a 2nd load out (like this video for example) you could always make a 2nd small video that just does a very quick snowing of the build (link the main video) then show the game play of that build it would be maybe 10min video. I know thats alot more work so would understand if you don't do it.
@@captainbenzie when you personalize yourself as a ship lol, God blees u cap o7 try fitting a core temp stabilizer and install an antivirus for the main computer, never underestimate malware! lol
Counter fits are basically anything that's fast and has webs. Dessies and frigs generally do well. Even autocannons struggle with close and fast targets
assault frigs would counter all sniper built ships, as they just hit the damage control, and 18 secs of immunity while closing, and boom, at close range you're on ur own turf, that pointy strike cannons is useless now, unless webbed, and even then with all tracking comp they'll just manage a shot, so with good timing you could activate damage control and render more than half of the damage ineffective, well unless someone goes overboard and hook up full 5 tracking comp
This is a very old video, but all these modules are still there and neither the ships nor modules were nerfed. There are newer modules that can make this better, but if you're struggling to fit, check your skills, specifically Cruiser Engineering
You don't understand Minmatar ships. IN RUST WE TRUST! Green is the natural colour of the metal alloy used .. the brown is the RUST!!! It is not a real Minmatar ship if there is no rust. (In game joke based on how all the original ships were constructed from parts found in discarded, wrecked or stolen ships)
I would go with the burst aerator instead of collision accelerator, allows for a second volley with the tracking comp still going.
Excellent ship,my first cruiser was the trainer,the brawling fit works great!
Yes, yes it can shoot someone at 100km, and yea, I love this ship
Btw loving the new introduction banner on the bottom!

This ship is why the silent alliance obliterates everyone.

Did you say "haiyaa"? Lol so hard!! uncle Roger aproved

I use a dealer mwd as well!
Haha expect for the fact regular ships hit warp dis at 30km max :p ain't gonna come that useful
Captain- Why paint your ship camo?!? ITS NOT HIDING ANYWHERE!!!! ITS FLIPPIN SPACE!!!
me an American- *Patriotic noises*
@@captainbenzie technically no we did not invent camo, however we used camouflage techniques in the american civil war and the american indian war
Ahoy! If I have enough PG, what should I use in combat rigs?
CBA + CCA, 2 CBA or 2 CCA?
what the Good Old Cap is missing is that while yes it does seem to be forest camo painted on but i think its supposed to look like green and browns from a planet although if you close enough to a planet to see those colors your close enough to see its clearly not a big round planet lol!

Never been so fast, captain ,o7

Why is it so fast makes the hurricane look useless just hits a bit harder

At 4/4 Cruiser engineering, don't have enough PG for this unless using small shield,. How can I get all this to fit? Trying to copy long range build.
@@captainbenzie yes, the level 2 one. Will train up cruiser engineering lvl 5, but for now my PG is falling a little short.
Great video. ❤️. It would be nice if the tracking computer recharge faster.
What's the exact range with both fitting bonuses activated?
Great vid Cpt... Is that a Med or LG Shield Booster on range build?
Medium
I tried gistim c type but I had too make some sacrifices on powergrid rigs on weapons and engineering.
What could we ask for the next videos...? Stabber in pvp 😇😇😇
Better to use 1 gyrostab 1 computer. It will give a chance to make 2 shots while computer active. It will be equal for 2 separate computer activation. And will increase dps. And I like gyrostab more than computer on broiler build

looking back at this and seeing the 300 dps with ac's... then looking at my screen and seeing 600 cold lol
wow, didnt thought, we will get a Video today
Yay thanks for the guide
Anything special about the Celestis? Would love to hear what you have to say about it.
@@captainbenzie Looking forward to you being able to cover it some time in the future. Keep up the good work, and fly safe!

Okay cheers captain
Solo my first 4 mil encounter today on a ruoture with autocannons, feel like I lose my virginity...was a miner up antill today
@John mark Ogayon thorax is total shit never skill into railguns imo

I’ve found the insane speed of MWD has saved me being ganked numerous time’s, with the long range also making it harder to be locked down.
is a normal stabber good too?
Yes, it can shoot to 240km :) Thats how I runned Angel or Devil in the early days, after the first aggro change patch.
maybe the camo for the fleet issue was also for gallente space
I like minmatar ships but I am not skilled in cannons. (I am a missiles,railguns and drones guy
) at least there are some minmatar ships who use missiles like the breacher and the bellicose

I hit at about 60km with strikes. It is a very good ship.
I kinda hated the Rupture... it was to slow, Hopefully the Stabber is better. I love my Stabber Trainer
Make a Video about how to efficiently make Isk as a solo pilot , best Isk per activity
ahh yea unless you have a cynabal or bc it isnt that easy 3 months ago i was just like you i was a miner and i was not rich at all then my corp advised me too move in to null sec i did a couple deadspaces and inqis anoms and made 500 mill that night with my fleet soooo yea starting out solo is hard if you have a good ship you should have no trouble making isk

Set your keep at range to 200km, press that button before the next gun cycle is up.
Full damage shots every time.
@@captainbenzie ah, that blows. Arty jousting is fun.
You up transverse when your guns are in cool down and drop it right before they fire.
I really wish Matari ships didn't have rate of fire bonuses for this reason.
All hail the alpha volley!
are you okay now, capt o7
stabber fleet issue is such a beast at long range, cant wait to get the stabber sniper
It's hard to gate camp with the ventures being nerfed. There are not many options left after cov ops
Can you please share some Capt Benzie?
Just move straight away (approach to 60km) with MWD on.. you hit every time ;)
Cant wait for sensor damps to snipe ships with no pesky yellow box
imagine sniper stabber's range😎
I'd like if u do a purifier video captain and I also liked this one o7
Really wish you would have shown the brawler build in action.
@@captainbenzie understandable. But here's something to think about. You have time stamps in your description so they can skip to what they want to learn. And also if they think its to long they can always stop watching after the first build is shown.

9:53 LUDICROUS SPEED!
I've been one-shotted by these evil beasties more than once. Nasty, NASTY ship.
Void Consumes o7
I love the stabber, but the cannon speed is too slow
I sometimes have an alpha strike of 2500, it could be more tho
can a rupture do story missions easily?
If you are interested in pvp build on Stabber Fleet, here is one : echoes.gg/loadouts/XDbbW
I hope you are fine now?
@@captainbenzie as a med student, that's one of the best respond i have heard to the question such as"i hope you are fine"
@@captainbenzie when you personalize yourself as a ship lol, God blees u cap o7
try fitting a core temp stabilizer and install an antivirus for the main computer, never underestimate malware! lol
do the moa guardian and or the rapture guardian
You spend so much time on how these look when no one really looks at them close enough when in combat to really make a difference.
Artilleries feel VERY underwhelming in echoes vs eve online
Video suggestion: given that many people fit their ships based on your videos, maybe show some counter-fits?
Counter fits are basically anything that's fast and has webs. Dessies and frigs generally do well. Even autocannons struggle with close and fast targets
assault frigs would counter all sniper built ships, as they just hit the damage control, and 18 secs of immunity while closing, and boom, at close range you're on ur own turf, that pointy strike cannons is useless now, unless webbed, and even then with all tracking comp they'll just manage a shot, so with good timing you could activate damage control and render more than half of the damage ineffective, well unless someone goes overboard and hook up full 5 tracking comp
usar la Stabber de flota solo por la velocidad? nada mas es lo bueno de esta nave??
if you do it right, harbinger can hit up to 175km
Harbinger is a Battlecruiser
You'd want to compare to a Hurricane in that case
Lol hurricanes with two tracking computers prolly can hit at 200+( 50% damage)
Almost none of this works in 2023 literally every single module has changed. This set up is impossible in 2023
This is a very old video, but all these modules are still there and neither the ships nor modules were nerfed. There are newer modules that can make this better, but if you're struggling to fit, check your skills, specifically Cruiser Engineering
You don't understand Minmatar ships. IN RUST WE TRUST!
Green is the natural colour of the metal alloy used .. the brown is the RUST!!! It is not a real Minmatar ship if there is no rust.
