How much DPS is considered fair/good for a drake to be able to passively tank according to EFT?
[QUOTE=thirty9th;20185293]39 days until I can get my Hulk and outfit it... It's pretty much the Perma tank number 1 build on BattleClinic. Any testimonies on it?[/QUOTE]
Don't mine and don't buy a Hulk. In lieu of that, kill yourself.

Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much. Kidding. The amount the Drake should be able to tank depends on if you're fitting for l3 or l4's. Obviously, you can lose some tank for more damage in l3's.

Disagree. Everyone should fly a rifter. :)

And evrything Minmatar is currently pretty good.
You don't HAVE to fly a rifter.

L3 or L4, I can run L3s with it fine, Haven't tried L4s with it.

Properly fit drake will be able to tank level 4s, however completing the missions with take longer than if you used a battleship.

Even to fund two combat characters, good sire? :allears:

Touché. I'm sure the loadout will be fine, but the more important thing is to stay aligned and watch out for ganks.
I build ships so the Hulk is a necessity. My skills aren't perfect but each strip miner 1 brings in 1110m3 every 180 seconds (3 minutes) and the Hulk fits three. Naturally, that is a lot of fucking ore. I will soon be building my own Battlecruisers... which is good, because I'm not the greatest at fighting and will probably go through a few Drakes in my time.
Still, it's quite likely you will make more money doing missions. Mineral prices have gone down quite a bit since I last played.
So a -10 just tried to kill our taranis in sarum prime, he was in a T2 fit domi, and used to be the CEO of a corp, I guess that's why that corp is closed now.
Also PJ you should totally get tuskies to join us in this, we have a contract to kill people in lowsec, they have dreads and carriers :v:
Just buy ore for building ships to sell, it isn't worth it mining it all yourself.

If you then sell it, you pretty much won't earn a profit
[QUOTE=stylee32;20195624]If you then sell it, you pretty much won't earn a profit[/QUOTE]
With decent skills you should make at least 5% per ship (usually more but w/e). As far as mining goes, the stuff you mine is not free, and if you get more form selling the ore than putting it in a ship then do that.

Yeah, our battleships kinda suck currently. The arty boost helped the tempest alot but everything else is pretty meteocre.
Just got a cap fleet dropped on my fleet, of like five battleships.

Killmails have been broken forever, even though the latest patch was supposed to fix them.

Yeah they're pretty cool, but they're expensive :smith:
I <3 my Maelstrom.

This is what we dropped on these puny people, and this is only a fraction of what we can jump in.
Very nice!
You're welcome to join in at any time PJ, same goes to any tusker :v: though volition cult is probably hightailing it from what I heard when talking to their alliance leader.

I might if things are slow for a few days. It's been pretty good hunting recently though. We killed a [url=http://tuskers.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=5810404]Dominix[/url] with like 20 of his friends in local. It was rather nerve-wracking.

Yeah, the alliance that lives in Aeschee is basically a bunch of flashy carebears that like to drop carriers on people.

Except it has RR rigs.
So after dying horribly to a FW gang, the FC sends me 20 mil. When I ask why, he says "Thanks for flying with me when I'm drunk, bitches.". I love my corp. :v:
[QUOTE=Wingedwizard;20203103]Except it has RR rigs.[/QUOTE]
If you have good drone skills you don't need the right rigs, he could have been recycling, or he's just retarded, or both.
