Cormorant (Sniper)
Contents
General Info
The Cormorant destroyer has one of the best optimal ranges for sniping due to its bonus to Destroyer skill. The following two setups have been built for sniping at frigate and destroyer hulls in flyby maneuvers. The T1 built is recommended build as it is cheap and disposable, but it does require having a few named modules to work. The tech II setup costs a few million more mostly due to the price of tech II 150mm railguns, however, it can snipe from significantly superior range while doing 50% more dps loaded with Spike S ammo. Spike S cuts tracking by 75% and can be replaced with Tungsten S which gives 40% range bonus and no tracking penalties. However Tungsten S really cuts the dps and optimal range such that the tech II setup becomes almost no better than tech I setup.
