We'll announce the chosen picks from the mining fits bounty soon!

They didn't put the last fits into the game FYI

Alex Sinclair's avatar

I second Wadd/Yoda, but which bounty was this for? This is #7 and most of the others have been confirmed to be in-game now

EveOnlineTutorials's avatar

If I remember rightly we won the Destroyer one. You credited it in a post but from what we can see our fit was never implemented in-game or was that just a bounty win?

Alex Sinclair's avatar

If you send me the link, I'll inquire with CCP next time I talk to them :)

CS

That's my bad! Sometimes when they're added it takes a downtime, and sometimes it just fails because the description was too long!

They should all be in now, but can always poke me either here on or Discord

Description:

This ship fit is designed to run level 2-3 Missions with ease, with its multi membrane for resistances and the reactive hardener which will focus on two resistance types when targeted by specific damage types, if you couple this with the T2 Repair module and the 3 x Aux Nano Pumps, it will push the repair per cycle to 500+ which to receive this much damage, in a level 3 is very rare making it perfect and cheap, for new players to use.

Above is one of the best 1v1 cruiser fits in the game that dominated most of the 1v1 PG scene. Overheat everything, approach and F1 and there are very few ships that can trade evenly or outrun this ship. Anything with blasters succumbs to Barrage M with the Stabber's falloff bonus and speed.

Name: Sho Menao
Description: Thanks to it's impressive speed, damage, and falloff, this Stabber fit is extremely cheap yet very strong in any cruiser vs cruiser engagements.

Thanks for the entry, and welcome to Just About EVE!

Thanks for the welcome and sadly I didn't see the nearly identical fit above. I should find another one of my fits and update it here too.

Alex Sinclair's avatar

@ShoMenao That would be great, thank you! At time of writing, you've got 15 hours left to change it :)

This is a fit that carried me through the early part of the game including escalation hunting, missioning, and general ratting duty. It is very inexpensive at less than 20 million ISK and is usable with nearly no skills at all.

Antimatter Charge M x8000

Description: The sixth drone is a "drone-boat" ship intended for use just as it's name implies: by flying directly into combat and adding blaster firepower to the drones it carries to ensure a quick demise of the enemy. The ship is cap stable with the armor repairer and hardeners running allowing it to withstand enemy damage and come out on top.

In Game Description: The Sixth Drone was designed by Jaques Ufaltred for Just About EVE Online and excels at brawling PVE combat thanks to a combination of drones and blasters as well as a capacitor stable active armor tank.

I continue to submit non-meta ships and fittings, hoping to spotlight awesome ship hulls that are often overlooked and underestimated. This time, I present a budget, alpha, rookie-friendly PvP Bellicose fitting.

As noted in the disclaimer, this ship is a rare occurrence on the battlefield, providing an element of surprise. Most pilots don't know what to expect, losing precious seconds reading ship bonuses or making bad tactical decisions. In EVE Online, that alone can account for 50% of success.

Valkyrie I x5

Caldari Navy Nova Heavy Assault Missile x500
Caldari Navy Mjolnir Heavy Assault Missile x500
Caldari Navy Inferno Heavy Assault Missile x500
Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Assault Missile x500

This fitting is very friendly, requiring nearly zero core skills since it has plenty of CPU and PG. You can even fly it on a day-one character, maybe not as effectively, but it will definitely contribute well to your fleet.

Zero skills, cant even pilot it.

I highly recommend training T2 Heavy Assault Missile Launchers and Cruiser skills first. These not only increase your DPS from around 200 to over 600 but also allow you to use T2 missiles, specifically Javelins. With proper training, these can deliver up to 400 DPS with drones to a distance of 30km, countering the main bane of the ship - kiter ships. Given the ship bonuses and a bonused target painter, you pose a serious threat to any kiters with Warp Disruptors.

Max skills, add a booster and we are looking at 700+ dps, defiantly not something you can expect from that rusty ship.

Dual webs, paired with impressive speed and a Scrambler, allow you to pin down any target in close quarters. This ship can be used solo, especially in a T2 fit, but it also provides great utility for a fleet, serving as a lite version of the Rapier.

Speaking of the Rapier, you can train skills (and piloting PVP experience) towards this awesome Force Recon, which could later transition into a Loki. So, it's a worthy investment with great future potential. Thanks to its price at around 20 million ISK, it's easy to replace.

As for the name, Ignotus means "unknown" in Latin, precisely describing the feelings of your prey when they encounter you on the battlefield.


Fitting Name: Melamori's Ignotus

Character Name: Melamori

In-Game Description: Bellicose, made by Melamori for Just About EVE Online. Thanks to its low skill requirements and versatility, it excels at countering kiters and close-quarters combat tackling support. Can be flown both solo and in fleets.

Description

ESS Stabber, grab what you can and give nothing back!

Use the filament to jump into random 0.0 and check the agency for juice ESS.
Remember that your ship is around 50 Million worth, so maybe start safe and step up.
If uncontested drop the shiny loot into an enemy structure and asset safety it into nullsec.
Don´t worry about the tax, it was already freely handed to you.

But your ultimate goal is killing PVE Ishtars off guard.
First off all you look like an easy target one T1 Cruiser vs. one specialized T2 HAC.
Everybody would take this fight or? But you have enough buffer and swappable DPS to hole out the thin PVE active tank.

PVE Ishtars tend to tank only against the specific npc type they face and since they want max. DPS they go active Shield. What do you think happens if you shoot into the EM Hole of an Shield Ishtar fitted for Guristas?

The AB is needed to get out of the ESS Bubble or to get you into optimal.
The WEB keeps your prey in your optimal range.
The two neuts just increase the pressure.

Since we only fight in the ESS, the ESS delivery your prey on a golden plate.
Ready to be sliced by your autocannons.

Sometimes it works, sometimes they don´t show..and sometimes they already know.

Credited name: Kane Carnifex

In-game description

Verdandi is made to be a challenger in the ESS from Just About.
Autocannons give you enough DPS to shred to any unprepared encounter.
Your natural habitat is within the ESS, where you don´t need to chase your prey.
It comes to you to protect the hard earned ISK.

Hello, this is my trusty Maller, which I used for exploration and level 2 agent missions. I prefer it over the Omen because of its superior armor resistances, which greatly help me explore new content of  the game, specifically combat sites, and new missions.

My tactic is simple: when venturing into the unknown, it's better to be well-tanked than sorry. I favor energy beams over pulses for the necessary range to utilize a safe 'kiting' tactic.


You might also notice that I've replaced the 5th gun with a probe launcher. This is an optional decision. If you want to scan down 3/10 or 4/10 DED combat complexes, keep the launcher. If you plan to run anomalies or agent missions, simply dock and refit the 5th gun. The fit price between 15 and 20 millions, depending on lenses, but i recommend to invest into faction lenses for extra damage, it's totally worth it!

I also designed a SKIN for this bounty- if you fly a Maller, do it with style!

In-game description:
This ship is perfect for anyone who wants to hone their skirmishing skills with an inexpensive cruiser. Its shield buffer offers some tank to utilize the 220mm Autocannons, which can fabulously kite with barrage, or go in close and personal to brawl it out. If you then get scrammed by some pesky tackler, neut them and break free, little bird!

Fitted for cost-effectiveness by Nora Maldoran for Just About Eve Online.
