The rifter is an excellent frigate, with a balanced slot layout, good damage, and excellent speed. They are very popular among Agony pilots. Due to the size of PvP-BASIC fleets, this artillery setup is preferred over [[T1 Hydra Rifter|the autocannon setup]]. While the autocannon setup deals more damage, many pilots find the range of the artillery setup allows them to start dealing damage earlier.

'''Please have several of the following modules in stock at class start location.''' You will have to adjust the 2 EWAR midslots as needed to balance the fleet so make sure to bring 2 of each of these electronic warfare modules with you per frigate hull that you buy. Because ewar modules are CPU intensive you may want to bring a co-processor along and swap it with overdrive. You will also need to use scripts with some ewar modules (dampeners and tracking disrupters) so make sure to bring along one of each kind of script per ewar module that you buy and bring along.

General Info

  • Bonuses: 5% bonus to Small Projectile Turret damage and 7.5% bonus to tracking per level.

The Rifter is an excellent frigate, with a balanced slot layout, good damage, and nice speed. Due to the size of PvP-BASIC fleets (and the many smart-bombing battleships thrown at us), this artillery setup is preferred over autocannon setups. While typical autocannon fits deal more damage, many pilots find the range of the artillery setup allows them to start dealing damage earlier and maintain damage dealing at range.

Additional Notes

You should carry with you:

  • 500 units of short-range ammo
  • 500 units of longer-range ammo
  • Scripts for any electronic warfare modules that need them
