Just did my Tier 0 following your video. Did all the tutorials and Career Agents then straight in to the Abyss. Worked like a charm. A great video for someone looking to earn some ISK :)
I wanna say you've been extremely helpful in my EVE journey. I started about 2 years ago, couldn't figure out how to make basic ISK, and quit. Came back to that same character in the last week, and watched your Wormhole Exploration video, and that sincerely helped me make my first few million. I'm currently sitting at around 400 million, and am ready to do some abyssals to further progress myself. You're awesome, thanks so much for making this content!
I really like this and the Abyss Progression videos. I just got my friend to start up Eve using this Corax build and it would be super helpful for us to see Duo Progression and I am sure there are groups of 3 that would love to see Trio Progression.
This is still relevant! So much quicker than doing missions or mining as an alpha. I get through all 3 stages in 4-6 min depending on if I come across the harder enemies. A+ video thnx
Very true, I have find his videos also very encouraging to wander out of your comfort zone in EVE. Ifound the videos using the Skybreaker and Stormbringer very helpful!
Going to watch this when I get home but comments getting me hopeful! Bit lost trying to return to the game just running T3 security missions in my caracal... Definitely excited to try some more interesting content in a cheaper ship and make some ISK while I'm at it!
Personly this one of the first ship i have flown. missle base destroyer. the reason is range. i hate to have to travel in order to deal damage. gallente ships are pretty short ranged but high dps. I love this ship look. its remind the looks ships from homeworld 2 space strategy game.
@@jacobnunya808 i have a rail cormorant already.I used it to out compete people in high sec anomiles . railguns instant blap rats. Corax does more dmg compare to cormorant at that same range but cormorant has no travel time so its something to consider when trying to farm escalations.
Works absolutely fantastic! My only qualm is I was unable to activate the 7th missile hardpoint, and because of this, I died to the Skybreaker wave due to not outputting enough DPS. The power grid is overloaded.
Did you fit rigs? Did you level up your skills? Did you change the type of gear fitting? All will effect what grid/cpu you have & what the modules need.
Okay like a total noob I did not get the skills listed in this video so it's important to note that without them skybreaker doesn't die. Thanks for the guide Aceface.
This is a nice Day1 idea. Missile skills would seem to translate up to worm and gila. The punisher is very easy to use, but the weapon system doesn't scale in the abyss.
@@dag_of_the_west5416 In terms of piloting bigger ships, yes. But not for abyss. People can, and do, use caracals in the abyss, but not battlecruisers (drake).
Great fit & it still works (well at least of me but i also have omega & a bunch of extra skills). First enemy i ran into testing this build was the Devoted Hunter, lol. Thankfully i have done a tonnes of T0 with like with a catalyst destroyer too so i do recognise both the Devoted Hunter & the annoing Skybreaker D Trooper imediately, so its good to know of the 30km orbiting trick. However this fit is at least a good 2 or 3 min faster than my ol' catalyst build. The whole exotic + kinetic missiles is a really good trick, i never though of that. Thanks ;)
I am becoming very proficient with this fit and T0s are not a problem~ Thx again! I wanted to mention that I had inadvertently used "Tranquil Gamma" filaments and ended up in that Abyss arena... This Corax/fit worked just fine there as well! ... I switched up and used the Caldari Navy Inferno Lt Missles as primaries and cleared all spawns with no problem! Maybe I got lucky, or this is a good setup for that Abysal as well~ cheers m8
I've always hated mixing active and buffer tanks. So I modified it to the below fit. The afterburner does slow the run down a bit though... High power 7x Arbalest Compact Light Missile Launcher Medium power 1x Small Clarity Ward Enduring Shield Booster 1x Eutectic Compact Cap Recharger 1x 1MN Y-S8 Compact Afterburner 1x Compact Multispectrum Shield Hardener Low power 2x Ballistic Control System I Rig Slot 1x Small EM Shield Reinforcer I 1x Small Kinetic Shield Reinforcer I 1x Small Bay Loading Accelerator II Charges 5,280x Caldari Navy Scourge Light Missile
Noob here again at Eve. Glad there is somewhat new videos on this game. Not many make any videos anymore from search results. I'm trying to learn. I got a coceror or however u spell it. It's the best ship I got so far. I am amarr also. Not sure if it makes a difference other than using there ships.
@@Aceyface I think i have a Punisher i do believe. Ill have to look, just not to SMART on knowing what is good to put on the SHIP or whats total trash. I know the Civilian items are garbage.
Also i looked up this build at JITA its over 100 m isk just for the parts. its wild out cause i was about to try this. 1 item was really high in price and i went else where. But It was super easy, I did the punisher on a T1 i beat it a few times but then got smacked eventually.
Hey Aceface! Incredible videos bro! That helps a lot! Let me ask somethings: 1 - Why I cant activate my Tactical View inside Abyss? (T0 Exo, in a Corax, just like you) 2 - Exotic and Electric are the ones that give the most ISK returns? would this be the reason why they are currently the most expensive tickets to enter the Abyss? 3 - is it worth building Dragoon for T1 Electrical, or can we add an ISK directly to build something for T2? (considering that we will need to wait for the skills to be ready)
with that damage there is no way to kill skybreaker. I just lost 500 mil pod to that because even with 160 dps (he says 110) its not enough. He heals that very easily and the timer will run out.
This must have been changed in a recent patch, when you use a filament now it has a drop box above "Activate" where you can pick either 1 Cruiser, 2 Destroyers, or 3 Frigates. Don't seem to be able to enter solo as a Destroyer. Seems starting a fleet with yourself will allow you to enter still but you end up using two filaments so doubling your cost
Also with this fit if you group your weapons in two groups. 1 as 3 and another as 4 yo ucan use the 1st group to break the Bio cache so you don't waste a full 7 missiles each time. 7x860isk is how much you are wasting if you fire all of them just to open the cache, this builds up over time XD. You could also just make one group 2, i think 2 is enough to break the cache.
Thanks a lot for the guide! I was just wondering, i unfortunately encountered a skybreaker for my first try and he destroyed me as my capacitor kept turning off because of its depletion. Is there a way to keep the 30km distance even if the capacitor is depleted?
I think the trick with this setup is to pay attention & not to rush for the gate (into the Skybreaker's range as I did & lost the ship as well) when you're against a Skybreaker, but to keep the range from the start. Hope you didn't lose the implants.
in order to keep the needed distance you need your microwarpdrive alive = you need cap so the ONLY solution as mentioned is no rush and keep distance from the start IF you have the dps it will die in 2 min about
Got the Skybreaker in the 2nd room and wasn't expecting him yet. I turned 15 degrees left of line to portal and started switching the ammo to thermal. He came up fast and got behind me. I Hit the MWD and left it on. He chased me for a minute and popped. Full disclosure I have a little more cap due to swapping out both Ballistic 1's for a Ballistic 2 and Power Diagnostic 2. And yes I lost a couple dps but I've got more cap and shield tank. I'm about a month into this new character and was already training Caldari missiles.
@@LetsSeeYourKungFu more time (time is money) & more risk but it is vital to place buy order for the filaments as they are quite expensive - in jita at 5/1/2022 i can save about 60 k ISK in every T0 Abyss just from the filaments
@@LetsSeeYourKungFu it was clear what you suggested. what i meant was that in order to sell them to the cops you need to make a trip to their station, which is time consuming (the trip) and risky (always there is the posibility to get killed before reach your destination) and loose all your cargo and your ship
Not sure if something changed but I'm a new player and tried this and using that filament does not work. It states that you need a type ! or !! cruiser, not the destroyer (Corax). Also, the Filament cannot be used in systems >.08. If I did something wrong or missed something let me know please.
Yes now required 0.8 systems. When you activate the filament, you can switch the cruiser into destroyer or even frigates. Choose the destroyer then activate. But you need to make a fleet (even if you doing it in solo) it just for the requirement.
I don't know what happened to other guys but I met with skybreaker and survived, and I didn't even change missile type. I have a bit dmg than your alpha clone (around 120-130 dps i think) but still work fine.
i have lost a cormorant to skybreaker. Not before getting about 50M out of gamma sites, but still, i did not have enough dps for skybreaker. Edit: continually training missile and speed skills got me about 18m/h reliably out of the corax. Waiting for skillz on that dragoon...
Is there a reason you don't run Cap boosters for extra safety? Also, if I were to do these in a Cruiser, should i stick to T0 filaments or can I safely do T1 (Calm?)
when I try this it doesn't allow me to because it says I need a tech 1 or 2 cruiser. do I need the skills for the ship to do it without that message popping up? or what can be the reason for this messgae
lmao the first time I loaded into abyssal deadspace yesterday with this fit I immediately faced off against a skybreaker, unfortunately died to the barrier. grinding that money back as I write
hehe sorry dude, you learn, dont worry. This is also an alternative for a bit of a cheaper fit: th-cam.com/video/3yuBezXMlek/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Aceface
does the character you're using in this video have any fitting-related skills trained? For me, coraxes only have 243 CPU and 61 PG to use... I have CPU and PG management trained to level 3 (and a 1% CPU implant)
Got my first time in the Abyss, there was a Skybraker in the first room that rect me easily, couldn't outrun him or anything, he was hitting every time. So unfortunately my rate at the moment is -6.5mil/min. No more abyss for me.
I would of made the fit cap stable by just switching out the mwd for an ab It would be slower but better for noobs Because if you tell them and teach them pulsing on there first day they will ignore there cap or at least I did Then the sky breaker could kite but I fits web instead of passive extender Because if your cap stable then you can just rep with no problems so you can just web him
Thanks for the idea! I hope to try it out. How does having no shield extender work out for you? Lost one of my Coraxes to the Skybreaker type as well. Was careless enough to go straight for the loot & closed in into its firing range. All of a sudden I was losing capacitor like crazy, while taking lots of damage from its chain lightning (Arcing Vorton Projector). Ended up unable to repair, unable to escape its reach, and with not enough time to peel his shields & armor.
I did not get the same results at all, not sure if things have changed since this video aired but finding filaments at all is very hard. There are very few available to purchase, and i dont get anywhere near the DPS you claim with that exact same build on afresh Alpha character. I find mission running to be FAR more reliable and profitable than anything presented in this guide.
Been gone for 10 years, so I have a med toon and a noob memory, lol. your vid's are a big help. just a FYI, the link for the 1 mil skill does not work.
wait if I understand it correctly the caldari navy inferno that 500 there is for only the skybreaker? or just for regular waves? sorry because I don't quite get it
How much was it altogether for the list below BTW I am doing this!!! TX for the heads up!! I was tossed between the Cormorant & this & this looks superior to Cormorant has 1 more med slot with only 1 less high slot. NM got it 8-13M.
just lost 4 of your fittings there because the enmies where completely different. the where 3 really fast ships, some frigates which healed each other and the other time it was a giant drifter foothold battleship which snipes you right away from a distance of 50+km ?!
New player here. Just a bit confused, how is Caldari frigate not trained to 3 before Caldari destroyer? Are there skills trained that were not shown on that list at around 1:14? Thanks!
Quick Question i was only getting about 250k isk per cache and was wondering if that was bad luck or to be expected finished 2 runs so far. Was getting 750k isk per cache with your punisher build for t0
Thanks for the tutorial series. This is my 3rd attempt to get into Eve Online but your videos have made things so much clearer for me. I do have a question: Is this setup better than the Thrasher setup you had previously? th-cam.com/video/8ktR62apYQE/w-d-xo.html
Great vid bro! Problem is that i still died in the Skybreaker room. I switched to the infernos but he kept regenerating and I couldnt manage to get his armor down. What should I do?
do you keep distance ? it takes about 2 min to kill him if you have ATLEAST 120 dps and you use inferno missiles - you must manage to stay alive in those 2 min
Can it be done in a Hurricane or Stabber and what fit will be best? I've started to plat this game a month ago and I'm currently doing only missions. Any help will be great.
Hi Ace, I’m new to EVE, but I just built this fit. I went with a Small Bay Loading Accelerator I instead of II. It’s crazy how much the market changed, as your build is over 13m ISK, but mine is only worth 5.4mISK. A question if you can beat me before I find out - my DPS is 88, I don’t have any of the extra research done yet, that you have. It’ll be done by the morning. Would my DPS go up to match yours when all of that is down?
I wonder what happens to returning players after a long time, do their characters become alpha clones since their subscription has lapsed and have the ability to upgrade to Omega?
why use those expensive missiles as ammunition? they are over 1000 a piece when others cost like only 25 a piece and do MORE damage like the "Inferno light missile"
inferno does 83hp thermal damage which isn't optimal. Caldari Navy Scourge LM does 95hp explosive, the normal scourge does 83hp explosive.You can see this in the compare tool, just drag items from the market straight in.
i have a question: my pc is rly bad in loading things and i will lag a ton for the like 7 seconds of going into the first room. will the npcs in the room target you automatacly or do you need to engade? because if they do i need to play abysal on pretty low settings what will look disgusting XD
as you'll always keep an eye on the time you're spending in abyss, you might try out GeForceNow - having like 40 more milliseconds of lag due to playing in the cloud is much less annoying than several seconds of lag on your PC.
Hej! Sorry, I know that this video is pretty old, but as a new player I need help. How to upgrade this Corax? What should I change in this fit to be still operative for Tranquil Gamma?
hi again, thanks for the guide, I was looking for the set up but did not find it, do you delet it or is it on the comments? thanks a lot again, gl n hf ;)

@@bavarianwolf3806way cheaper ship/ way cheaper filaments /more robust ship/ but mainly... has same play style with next ships on its guide (missiles & drones together ) and the gain from this last advantage is that this fit prepares you better, so it is overal WAY better
you need atleast 120 dps in order to kill npcs fast try to follow EXACTLY the guide - he has A LOT of experience in the game = this is the optimal way / path of us the newbros
Don't do what I did and realize too late that you need to stack filaments in twos (apparently?) to keep doing these. I only bought 5 to start and didn't realize, so I used 2 stacked calm tranquils I found, thinking they were similarly easy. Nope. ROFLstomped in 90 seconds, lost all of my cargo from the previous abyssals and a fresh Corax. Suffice it to say I'm done playing for the day.
Dont you get 50% less loot with Destroyer vs Frigate? I am using Punisher for T0 works great. Tried your Dragoon for T1, not for the loot because its a cheap way to get into T1 with 8 mill. I lost 2 but still ok, learned a lot. You have way more DPS than I have which I realized later, so Alpha Friendly is not equal to NEwbro friendly.
"The filament is not compatible with your curent ship. You must board a tech 1 or tech 2 cruiser before you activate the filament" I dont understand it :(
Just did my Tier 0 following your video. Did all the tutorials and Career Agents then straight in to the Abyss. Worked like a charm. A great video for someone looking to earn some ISK :)
Great to hear ;)
This build rocks! I felt like I was lost on what to do even after the tutorials and this is a great way for a noobie like me! Keep it up!
Good to hear that this method still works, imma try it out too, but it does truely sound very promising
for me it worked for 1 in 3 attempt
Better than mission running. Haha
Me too!!! Newbs away!!! xD

great vid using it now and it helps me a lot
Hey mate, love your videos, do you think this setup will work in abyss tier 1 aswell? Thnx in advance

You could also just make one group 2, i think 2 is enough to break the cache.
AND when later on you have enough progression in skills (=more dps) you can use the cheap missiles
Personnaly doing 3 groups as 2 x 3 and the last 1 launcher for breaking the cache while taking care of foes with the first 2 if 2 there are.

Is there a reason you don't run Cap boosters for extra safety? Also, if I were to do these in a Cruiser, should i stick to T0 filaments or can I safely do T1 (Calm?)
when I try this it doesn't allow me to because it says I need a tech 1 or 2 cruiser. do I need the skills for the ship to do it without that message popping up? or what can be the reason for this messgae
When you use the Filament you will get a drop down option for 1 Cruiser, 2 Destroyers or 3 Frigates, choose 2 Destroyers.
lmao the first time I loaded into abyssal deadspace yesterday with this fit I immediately faced off against a skybreaker, unfortunately died to the barrier. grinding that money back as I write
finna be a lot more careful this time lmao
hehe sorry dude, you learn, dont worry. This is also an alternative for a bit of a cheaper fit: th-cam.com/video/3yuBezXMlek/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Aceface
How do you know the difference between a T0 and T6? Haven't been able to figure this one out.
does the character you're using in this video have any fitting-related skills trained? For me, coraxes only have 243 CPU and 61 PG to use... I have CPU and PG management trained to level 3 (and a 1% CPU implant)
Got my first time in the Abyss, there was a Skybraker in the first room that rect me easily, couldn't outrun him or anything, he was hitting every time. So unfortunately my rate at the moment is -6.5mil/min. No more abyss for me.
I would of made the fit cap stable by just switching out the mwd for an ab
It would be slower but better for noobs
Because if you tell them and teach them pulsing on there first day they will ignore there cap or at least I did
Then the sky breaker could kite but I fits web instead of passive extender
Because if your cap stable then you can just rep with no problems so you can just web him
Thanks for the idea! I hope to try it out. How does having no shield extender work out for you?
Lost one of my Coraxes to the Skybreaker type as well. Was careless enough to go straight for the loot & closed in into its firing range.
All of a sudden I was losing capacitor like crazy, while taking lots of damage from its chain lightning (Arcing Vorton Projector). Ended up unable to repair, unable to escape its reach, and with not enough time to peel his shields & armor.
I did not get the same results at all, not sure if things have changed since this video aired but finding filaments at all is very hard. There are very few available to purchase, and i dont get anywhere near the DPS you claim with that exact same build on afresh Alpha character.
I find mission running to be FAR more reliable and profitable than anything presented in this guide.
OMG IT STILL WWORKS THANK YOU!!! 🛐☣☢
Been gone for 10 years, so I have a med toon and a noob memory, lol. your vid's are a big help. just a FYI, the link for the 1 mil skill does not work.
Any update on this build? Just tried it and it seemed alright, just not sure if anything has changed.
need a cruiser now.
Thank you for making this
wait if I understand it correctly the caldari navy inferno that 500 there is for only the skybreaker? or just for regular waves?
sorry because I don't quite get it
only skybreaker because he has a VERY low thermal resistance. Scourge on rest.
Thank you very helpful.
Can this same strategy be used for the Tranquil Firestorm Filaments? They are the only ones available anywhere close to my home base
How much was it altogether for the list below BTW I am doing this!!! TX for the heads up!! I was tossed between the Cormorant & this & this looks superior to Cormorant has 1 more med slot with only 1 less high slot. NM got it 8-13M.
just lost 4 of your fittings there because the enmies where completely different. the where 3 really fast ships, some frigates which healed each other and the other time it was a giant drifter foothold battleship which snipes you right away from a distance of 50+km ?!
New player here. Just a bit confused, how is Caldari frigate not trained to 3 before Caldari destroyer? Are there skills trained that were not shown on that list at around 1:14? Thanks!
Awesome video. I should be well over skilled for this.
is this better than the Worm fit?
or is this more profitable than the other abyssal space sites?
Less profitable but easier to get into both in terms of ship cost and skills needed
Quick Question i was only getting about 250k isk per cache and was wondering if that was bad luck or to be expected finished 2 runs so far. Was getting 750k isk per cache with your punisher build for t0
Great video, but your skillpoint link does not work
try this one sorry for the inconvinience www.eveonline.com/signup?invc=581c034e-479e-4f71-9c97-e5aa9fc6e2cb
Thanks for the tutorial series. This is my 3rd attempt to get into Eve Online but your videos have made things so much clearer for me. I do have a question: Is this setup better than the Thrasher setup you had previously?
th-cam.com/video/8ktR62apYQE/w-d-xo.html
I prefer this because I think its a little faster, but thrasher is good too and very safe :)
Great vid bro! Problem is that i still died in the Skybreaker room. I switched to the infernos but he kept regenerating and I couldnt manage to get his armor down. What should I do?
Get relevant skills up to do more damage so you can kill rats quicker.
@@tjfun980 I got more dps than him in the vid
do you keep distance ?
it takes about 2 min to kill him if you have ATLEAST 120 dps and you use inferno missiles - you must manage to stay alive in those 2 min
Can it be done in a Hurricane or Stabber and what fit will be best? I've started to plat this game a month ago and I'm currently doing only missions. Any help will be great.
Hi Ace, I’m new to EVE, but I just built this fit. I went with a Small Bay Loading Accelerator I instead of II. It’s crazy how much the market changed, as your build is over 13m ISK, but mine is only worth 5.4mISK.
A question if you can beat me before I find out - my DPS is 88, I don’t have any of the extra research done yet, that you have. It’ll be done by the morning. Would my DPS go up to match yours when all of that is down?
Should be similar DPS as long as you got the same skills! But it will walys be a bit less because you have tech 2 bay loading acc
Im only getting 31km range on my missiles? Any particular reason?
Depends on relevant skill level you've trained as well as type of missiles you use, i.e. faction missiles, T2 missiles.
So I'm new and I'm amarr can I do a similar build with coercer and what fit would I use or could I just train into coax and use this specifically
I wonder what happens to returning players after a long time, do their characters become alpha clones since their subscription has lapsed and have the ability to upgrade to Omega?
I am a newbie, may i ask that why my corax cannot activate transquil exotic filament? It shows that i need to board tech 1 or tech 2
do i need light missle 3 to start? cause i have evreything else
I saw a dominix build I wonder if this will work with it 😅
what was the isk made in bounty ?
You don't get Bounty in Abyss you get stuff in the cache which you sell on market and NPCs on the market in CONCORD space.
I know this is an older video but can anyone tell me why he selects 2 destroyers when he is alone?
its twice the loot with destroyers. 3x with frigates.
Where do you get the filaments to begin those?
why use those expensive missiles as ammunition? they are over 1000 a piece when others cost like only 25 a piece and do MORE damage like the "Inferno light missile"
inferno does 83hp thermal damage which isn't optimal. Caldari Navy Scourge LM does 95hp explosive, the normal scourge does 83hp explosive.You can see this in the compare tool, just drag items from the market straight in.
i have a question: my pc is rly bad in loading things and i will lag a ton for the like 7 seconds of going into the first room. will the npcs in the room target you automatacly or do you need to engade? because if they do i need to play abysal on pretty low settings what will look disgusting XD
Hmm they do auto agreed as soon as you move so you can hit control plus space to keep your ship still when you enter the next room
@@Aceyface hm ok thanks
as you'll always keep an eye on the time you're spending in abyss, you might try out GeForceNow - having like 40 more milliseconds of lag due to playing in the cloud is much less annoying than several seconds of lag on your PC.
Hej! Sorry, I know that this video is pretty old, but as a new player I need help. How to upgrade this Corax? What should I change in this fit to be still operative for Tranquil Gamma?
Is using two Ballistic Control Systems not penalized?
It is, but for 2 the penalty isn't too bad. When you get to the 3rd and 4th modulr modifying a particular stat is when it starts to get ugly.
does this still work on 2023?
Edit: it works like a charm, thanks for the video its (g)old
I have a question. If I kill the Triglavian ships in the abyssal mission, will I lose my Triglavian standings, which are positive right now?
no what happens in abyss stays in abyss ;)
@@Aceyface thanks. previously I was reluctant to do these missions as I was afraid I will lose my standings with the Trigs.
@@spiritusmundi5398 traitor. First ship I ever lost was to a Trig invasion.
Is the navy ammo required? or can i just use the basic ammo.
Required, it's totally worth it thoug
can you salvage those? are they worth it?
hi again, thanks for the guide, I was looking for the set up but did not find it, do you delet it or is it on the comments? thanks a lot again, gl n hf ;)

but i advice you to do T0 with this
th-cam.com/video/LAFHodDcC-0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Aceface
@@antypanag1 why you advice the other video, is it better or cheaper or whats the reason?
@@bavarianwolf3806way cheaper ship/ way cheaper filaments /more robust ship/ but mainly... has same play style with next ships on its guide (missiles & drones together ) and the gain from this last advantage is that this fit prepares you better, so it is overal WAY better
Hi, you think this fit can take T0 Darks and Gammas too?
i think its possible but exotic is better because corax gets natural bonus to kineic missiles and kinetic resistance is reduced in exotic sites
Does salvaging works in Abbys?
Hi, I have a talwar with 4,999 ehp is this possible to use, or will it get blown up too fast?
you need atleast 120 dps in order to kill npcs fast
try to follow EXACTLY the guide - he has A LOT of experience in the game = this is the optimal way / path of us the newbros
Don't do what I did and realize too late that you need to stack filaments in twos (apparently?) to keep doing these. I only bought 5 to start and didn't realize, so I used 2 stacked calm tranquils I found, thinking they were similarly easy. Nope. ROFLstomped in 90 seconds, lost all of my cargo from the previous abyssals and a fresh Corax. Suffice it to say I'm done playing for the day.
FYI, calm is tier 1, which is harder than tranquil, which is tier 0.
Dont you get 50% less loot with Destroyer vs Frigate? I am using Punisher for T0 works great. Tried your Dragoon for T1, not for the loot because its a cheap way to get into T1 with 8 mill. I lost 2 but still ok, learned a lot. You have way more DPS than I have which I realized later, so Alpha Friendly is not equal to NEwbro friendly.
Frigates 3 filaments, x3 loot
Destroyers 2 filaments, x2 loot
Cruisers 1 filament, normal loot
Do the maths
the ship in the video have 110 dps , mine have 84 why?
You don't have the skills or you don't have something from the fit, or wrong ammo
"The filament is not compatible with your curent ship. You must board a tech 1 or tech 2 cruiser before you activate the filament" I dont understand it :(
You need two filaments and select destroyer because corax is a destroyer
I can only get my dps to 96.5. Is that going to be ok?
