General Info
- Special Ability: 5% bonus to shield resistances and 10% bonus to Small Hybrid Turret optimal range per skill level.
Basic T1 setup for use in Hydra gang. This offers a good alternative to the Kestrel - it has more mid-slots for electronic warfare as well as more HP, although it is slower, and deals slightly less damage. Merlins are very versatile ships, and are popular among Agony pilots.
You will have to adjust the 3 EWAR midslots as needed to balance the fleet so bring several different kinds of ewar modules with you.
The following ewar modules will fit in spare mid-slots for this setup:
- Stasis Webifier I
- Tracking Disruptor I
- Remote Sensor Dampener I
- Warp Scrambler I
- Warp Disruptor I
Setup
Stats (All level V)
- Speed: 807 m/s
- Turret Optimal + Falloff: 8.4 + 6.3 (Antimatter Charge S)
- Missiles Max Range: 42
- DPS: 52
- Effective HP: 2,119
Note: this setup requires Energy Management IV.
Lowslot
- Magnetic Field Stabilizer I
- Micro Auxiliary Power Core I (depending on your fitting skills, you may be able to swap this for a Nanofiber Internal Structure I)
Midslot
- 1MN Afterburner I
- electronic warfare module
- electronic warfare module
- electronic warfare module
Hislot
- 125mm Railgun I
- 125mm Railgun I
- Standard Missile Launcher I
- Standard Missile Launcher I
Cargo
1000 units Antimatter Charge S.
1000 units of light missiles, your choice of damage type.
Both scripts for any ewar modules that use them.
Rigs
While optional, some students may want to rig their frigates.
For the merlin, the following rigs may be useful:
- Small Hybrid Collision Accelerator I (increases turret damage)
- Small Hybrid Burst Aerator I (increases turret firing speed)
- Small Auxiliary Thrusters I (increases ship max velocity)
Close Range Variant
While blasters are too short ranged for PvP-BASIC, one possible variant would be to swap the Standard Missile Launcher Is for Rocket Launcher Is - this reduces your range but deals more damage, and more importantly, gives you enough spare powergrid to remove the Micro Auxiliary Power Core and use this low-slot to enhance your speed or damage output.
